I had my psych evaluation this morning and things went well. She said that she's concerned about my non-existant self esteem and told me her recommendations but that I passed and would be cleared for surgery from her! YAY!!! One more visit with the surgeon and then waiting on insurance approval. So excited :o)

That's great news! The psych had me a little nervous, like he was picking my self esteem apart... but I guess that was his job, right? You go girl! We'll be on the loser's bench together in no time!!!

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
