The End of Week 2

It's been a fairly long 2 weeks since little Owen was born.  My c-section incision looks good and the pain is minimal.

Owen's sleeping habits are a bit challenging - he has his days and nights mixed up and whenever he falls asleep and I try to put him down so I can sleep, he wakes up and fusses.  But I'm adjusting the best I can.

After 2 weeks of constant challenges and setbacks, Ryan and I decided to put Owen on formula.  I'm not going to elaborate on the details, but he wasn't gaining weight even after his tongue tie was corrected, I literally couldn't pump anything and I was getting too mentally frustrated to keep going. I tried as hard as I could, so I'm comfortable with my decision and am much happier now.  Happy mom = happy baby.

On a side note, his umbilical cord fell off today!  He's got the cutest little belly button.  :-)
