Well, tomorrow I go in for a simple (I'm telling myself this so I don't get too nervous) scope test for a look-see at my esophagus and stomach. I've been having continued discomfort and pain in my stomach and they want to find out for sure what is going on. The "reflex" is causing my asthma to act up a bit and we are thinking that this may be the "trigger" for my continued asthma. This is good but frustrating all at the same time! Anyhoo...I've been pumping for the past three days in order to have enough milk for Audrey to consume while the anesthetic gets out of my system after the procedure (apparently they want me to "dump and pump" for 24 hours). This has been a LOT of work!!
Chris gave Audrey a bottle today to "test" her out. We wanted to make sure that she would take the bottle and be ok. She did wonderfully and acted as if nothing was different. I was happy to see this and relieved too. However, it is kind of strange to see your little baby taking a bottle when she has had nothing but boobies! I felt a little jealous of that bottle, strange I know...what can I say?
The best part about this whole thing was watching Chris feed Audrey for the first time ever! They both looked at one another and it was so perfect and sweet! Audrey even reached up and help his hand! Chris never had the opportunity to feed Cameron this way. He and Audrey seemed extremely content and happy! You've got to love the LOVE between a Daddy and his little girl!
Also, note the hair growth on Audrey...yes she is sporting a "crew cut" these days! When will our little girl ever get a good head of hair? If Cameron's hair is a sign of what to come then I have hope!
