Hey all!
So today make one week since surgery! Things are going well and I could not be happier with how this last week has played out :)
Several of you have sent me messages asking how my week went, what a day looks like, how do I get in my protein and fluids... All very real questions that I could so relate to and just a few weeks ago I was asking myself.
So what I have done is posted a journal trying to answer all these questions. It is long and babbly in true Becca fashion, so venture over only if you dare! LOL!

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...

Hmmmmm...One week is about when I overdid it and then thought I'd pulled something on my left side (I hadn't...it was just the left incision being more painful because of the deep stitches they use for the larger port).
