Oh Jen, Honey! I am so sorry for you and for Brian! Nothing is worse than our children hurting!
Be sure to let me know what the Dr. says on Monday.
I wanted to write to you and tell you a BIG THANK YOU for your suggestion of Sweet Pea holding the baby in a football hold. We are rearranging things so that she can do that with him for a little bit tonight. He needs his mommy! THANK YOU for that wonderful thought. None of us is thinking clearly through the fog of everything. Her biggest worry was him kicking her scars because he has really long legs so that football hold will work perfectly!!! YOU ROCK!!!!!
As for the new mother getting up in the middle of the night thing – wow… I am experiencing that right now as I have had Andrew with me for the past two nights to allow Sweet Pea to rest. She is pumping so I just give him a bottle of her milk. I cannot tell you how much harder it is at almost 47 than it was in my 20’s. Now I know why people have kids when they are young!!!!!
Special love and hugs to Brian, poor baby. Make sure he makes Max wait on him hand and foot. haha!
Love,
Auntie M
