If It's Not One Thing, It's Another

Well, breastfeeding has improved. Yesterday I nearly called the lactation consultant. It hurt so bad on the right side that I was crying while she nursed. But I read the book and got a few pointers and now it's better. Not perfect, but tolerable. Last night I had to get Mark to help me. He sat beside me and told me all about his computer game. It got my mind of the searing pain and before I knew it, she was done. However, today, I am sick. I don't have a cough or a sore throat or runny nose or stomach ache...my whole body aches and I have a monster headache. Plus I'm exhausted and really cold. Well, actually I've warmed up now. I no longer have the blanket wrapped around me. So maybe I'm getting better. Today Mark and I and Abby picked up my friend and we went to the craft shows. Mark pushed Abby around in the stroller. He would get two feet and someone would stop him to look at Abby. Finally he just stood by the door as to not block the traffic and still let people look at her. It was so busy at the Flin Flon sale. I hate crowds and by that time I was starting to feel sick. Afterwards, we went to the Creighton sale. There were less people so I could breathe but I was really tired. When we got home, I fed Abby then hopped into bed.

Mark is leaving soon for hunting. He's really excited. I'm not as excited but my mom is coming while he's away so that is exciting. I hope he gets some deer!

I bought bubble bath at the Creighton craft sale and I had a wonderful bath this afternoon. I filled the bath with really hot water and after about 5 minutes, it was barely warm. So I drained some and filled it with only hot water. That lasted. Except now that I'm thinking about it, I'm getting cold again. Maybe I'll go and get my blanket again.

Abby is beginning to coo. It's so cute!
