throw up is gross
But I should be used to it by now huh? Haha, well Johanna only threw up the 1st night and 2nd day she was home, but then tonight about 1 hour after I put her down to bed, there it went... puke.. EVERYWHERE! Poor baby. But she has been doing really well with not throwing up considering im not giving her the reglin and zantac. Im not a doctor, but I don't feel like Johanna needs that crap in her body. She did fine without it, only tonight I might have given her too much. Which is another problem, she never seems to be full. She's almost 9 pounds and eats 105ish mls every 3 hours but still seems to be hungry. I don't know if im giving her enough or not, I know she is gaining weight but don't know if its enough

Today was a very good day! Johanna took her first trip to chilis to get to see all of my old co workers. They all took so many pictures, she was exausted after that. Haha, after that we went to buy more diapers.. Boy does she go through those! Then we came home and took a nap together. It was a very nice afternoon for us.I thiink her problem at night is that she misses her daddy. Cuz all the fussiness starts when he leaves at night. But so far, tonight she has been doing very good. Minimal crying and even though she isn't asleep, she is laying down in her bed and not being fussy. Wre adapting. Slowly but surely. Tomorrow Johanna and I are going to make her daddy a valentine, but it'll be from Johanna. Im sure he will love it. Oh, and the doc did give me suposatories (spelled wrong im sure) for her, I gave it to her once and she did poop, but the doc did say babies can become dependant on those. So I stopped giving her that, and instead im giving her camomile tea. And she has been pooping daily and very well. She also enjoys the tea. I give it to her right before bed and it warms her tummy. Johanna is still loving bathtime especially with the cool bathtub daddy bought her. I can't believe it has jets! If only my bath could have those! Looks relaxing.

wow.. oh so tired!
.. I always knew that a baby was going to be hard work, always. But i guess that since i was so anxious to have Johanna home, i just forgot about that part of it and focused more on just having her with me. My oh my, is it work!!! Johanna cries... a LOT! all the time. getting her to sleep at night is impossible! i feel like im doing such a shitty job, and with fernando at work at night and sleeping in the day, i feel like im doing this alone. i do enjoy spending time with johanna though. It is nice to have her with me and get to see her. And when she smiles at me ... (which she does now!!!) it makes it all worth it... the 2 hours of sleep at night dont even phase me, im just happy she is smiling!! ill put some pictures up in a couple days when i get a chance... maybe ill have 5 minutes tomorrow to upload them or something!

up...
Yes we are. Miss Johanna seems to protest to sleeping. No sleep last night. None. And it looks like were on the same track now. Its only been 2 days and im sooo tired. But even though its tiring, I appreciate every second of it. Although a nap does sound nice :) tomorrow she has a well baby appointment. Hopefully everything goes well with that. One thing Johanna does love is books. Today we read 5 together.. Kinda.. I read she made noises! Haha... maybe tomorrow we'll read more. She is very constipated and I find that is the reason for her irratability. I hope the doc gives us something for it so she can go back to being happy. . . . .P.S. Johanna and I extremely miss everyone at the nicu!
