The thing that strikes me the most about having a new baby in the house, and I hadn't really thought about this very much beforehand, was how quickly the hours fly by. What I have to get use to is that I am able to get very little done throughout the day. I had forgotten how much time is taken up with feeding your newborn, especially when that newborn has your husband metabolism and she wants to eat full meals every 1 1/2 hours. Now, considering that it takes her 30 minutes to actually eat, this means that 1 hour after I feed her, I'm feeding her again. It certainly is hard to get much done when you are spending a third of your day feeding a baby. However, I am just so grateful that she is here, that I don't mind too much. Besides, I'm already fitting into pre-pregnancy jeans, which isn't such a bad result of all the feeding. =)
