Hey everyone!
Time has continued to fly and we now have a three month old on our hands! This month we had a lot of firsts that we checked off including first time in a pool (at Grammy’s house), first road trip (11 hour drive to Florida) and first day back to work for Mama.
The long car rides to and from Florida went pretty well, but Aili is definitely not a car loving baby yet. We had a blowout (or two ;) ) on our journey but luckily none bad enough to get all over the car seat! Our trip was great and we saw our families and extended family as well as some of our best friends. It was so good to spend the time with everyone and I’m so glad I took part of my maternity leave to do so! I had been kind of looking forward to getting back into a good routine, which included going back to work. Now that I’m back at work, I’m wondering why I wanted to go back. Just kidding ;). Going back to work has been great. I love seeing my friends and patients again. My work colleagues are truly like a second family for me so it felt so unnatural to be away for so long. I do miss seeing baby girl as much though. We’re pretty blessed that my mom is able to come and stay with us almost the whole month of June so that Aili girl didn’t have to start daycare right when I started back at work. She’s the best!
Breastfeeding has still been going pretty well. I am a little worried about my supply dropping now that I’m back at work. So far it’s balanced out and we haven’t had to supplement with formula or use any of our freezer stash yet.
Products I loved this month:
- Milk Snob Car Seat Cover was a lifesaver for us! We used it a lot to let Aili sleep while we were out and about in combination with the shusher or white noise.
- Medela hands free pumping bra is a must for going back to work with the frequent pumping sessions
Look out world here she comes!! Love watching this baby girl grow!
Thanks for keeping up with us,
- Olivia
