housekeeping...

Aww the joys of housekeeping ( and no I'm not just talking about cleaning you home, although that is important also).  For any student you know that housekeeping also include getting everything together and done for your classes. So far today I have gotten my Hep B booster ( I hate getting shots), ordered my shoes for clinicals (way do nursing shoes have to be so ugly that they are cute) which was a very hard to make up my mind as to which ones I wanted, and ordered my stethoscopes ( yes I ordered 3, I'm an over achiever what can I say). It still seems that there are a million more little things to do before September 15th (first day of clinicals).

As for everyday life things are great. Little man seems to be doing better so we are switching his formula back ( I think that he is getting to much air with his bottles since he is super gassy). We will probably be trying new bottles after a few days of formula switch. And gas drops have been a life saver these past few days.

On another note I got into jeans that I wasn't able to get into pre-pregnancy a big wohoo for me!. So that is it for now I've got a million things to do today!

2nd week down...

So today started out with me almost hitting a deer on the was to school oh so much fun. We got our first tests back today and thank goodness I aced it!! one down 9 more to go. From there the day went down hill fast. I get a call that Little Man has a major rash, so I called and got our second opinion appointment moved up. So this doctor says Little Man doesn't have an allergy to milk or reflux just to try a different brand and back off on the baths. He also suggested a different bottle. So I am glad we don't have to give him medicine and hope that the rash goes/stays away with not bathing him everyday, which is a little sad because he loves bath time.

So Time to start studying for test 2 on Monday and hopefully get mentally prepared  for week 3. Maybe after next week I won't be so tired at the end of the week.

7 week old baby and 2nd week of nursing school

So the first week was a killer week. School in and of itself was exhausting and add on to that a baby who either has reflux or  a food allergy and it was horrible. But the first week went great and so did the first test. The second week is going just as well.


Now on to the baby. First he is growing like a weed. Friday his stats were 10 lbs 11 oz and 22 1/4 inches long. Now that we have started zantac hopefully the spit up will stop. Most evenings he sits in my lap wile I'm studying and doing what needs done for school. Also on a good note I was able to put him in the Moby and get some house work done yay!!!


So for now that is all I have hopefully be back with more good news
