Of course it's also my last week at home with him full time... school starts next Monday. I'm already getting a little weepy about it... not so much because I can't bear to leave him, but because that means the very new time with him is over. I really can't believe how the days are just flying by.
My body still feels like birth was just yesterday (sort of). I'm still taking pain medication regularly, although I think I'll start cutting back pretty soon. I'm still using the peri bottle and tucks pads and can't really imagine not doing that. How long are you supposed to keep using those anyway? I guess a 9.5 lbs baby will leave you a little battered but I sort of expected to feel much better by now. Thank God for pain meds! While my body feels like that of a new mom, I don't think it really looks that way anymore. I have a little belly still but I can see the underside and feel a waist now!
And now, a gratuitous picture of Timmy:

i love the pics- keep them coming!! that is such a sweet name, is there a story behind it? who will watch him while you're in class? I'm dreading leaving Jacob too.
I'm sure the circumcision will go fine- it will be hard to witness the aftermath of a fussy baby but they let you wait in the waiting room, my dr did anyway. once he is back in your arms just give him lots of cuddles or nurse him!
