Day 170: Sunday

Wednesday: Zumba. Shower. Nurse. Rehab. Nurse. Pack the cars. Drive to Heights. Unpack. Nurse. Drive to Hood for FRG meeting. Shower and get ready for surgery.

Thursday: Early wake-up. Drive to Temple. Interrogation/chat with doctors/IV. Nurse. Surgery. Drugged recovery. Drive to Heights. Drive Home. Pass out. Pump... at some point in the middle of the night.

Friday: Nurse at some point. Sleep. Nurse. Take a pill.  Drink a smoothie.  Nurse.  Sleep.  Email lady in Afghanistan who may want my house.  Sleep and nurse.  Eat soup that may have been old.  Sleep and nurse.... catch up on two-weeks of television throughout the day, as well.

Saturday:  Similar to Friday, except I was on my own with the baby in the evening, since the folks went out to dinner.  I did remove my outer bandage... and I bathed Puck.

Sunday:   I've noticed, due to the past few days, that my milk supply may be dwindling.  I have been pumping after Eis eats to try to get it back up to par.  I am considering pumping every three hours to try to help, but waking up to do that sounds like a bummer... I'll wait another day to see if I should.

I did get to finish my fleece blanket today.  I didn't put Eisley's name on it -- my mom wants to have it monogrammed or something, so she's checking around for pricing.  I also purchased the new iMovie and put it on both my laptop and my parents' computer, where I have all my pictures and movies of Eis... it's more like a computer my parents bought and I let them use :)

I finished my movie that I started for Ty (ages ago), and have been burning it to a disk for a few hours, so I can send that out asap.  Eisley got a bath -- my dad supervised, in case I dropped dead or something -- and she did fairly good for the most part, today.  She took two good naps, then not so much.  The evenings are always difficult.  I had my mom give her a bottle this evening. so I could be sure she'd had enough to eat.  I pumped and got an ounce and a half -- yikes!

Tomorrow, I go see Dr. P for more injections and to the dentist for a teeth cleaning.

We leave Tuesday for Houston and should be back Saturday or Sunday.  It'll be interesting to be gone that long with Eisley!  I hope all goes well.
