TAUTS!!

On August 30th I ordered a product called "TAUTS" from Brooke Burke's great website babooshbaby.com. It is a belly wrap to help shrink your tummy and uterus after delivery. You wear it for 40 days and nights and boy oh boy does it work!! My tummy is so much flatter now! It really is amazing and I highly recomend it.
Declan is doing great and is almost sleeping through the night! He goes to sleep finally at around 11 pm and gets up at 3 and 5 and 7 am for feedings and sleeps till 9am. This has been going on for 5 days now. He is lifting his head so high during tummy time now, and is pushing up his legs to stand while i hold him lightly under his arms. He is so strong! He is "talking" more and saying new things. Last night he threw a real wobbler and was crying a lot. Daddy gets a little hurt that Declan isn't soothed by his comforting efforts as well as mine, but I have told him he needs to bond with him alone a bit more. It has been hard because he has had to work so hard lately and such long hours. Declan is asleep now for his afternoon nap in his bouncy jungle chair that vibrates. He loves that chair!
I am going to attempt to rise at 6am to go to the gym for an hour each morning. At my six week checkup I got a prescription for the pill that is safe for nursing with progeston only no estrogen. The Doctor says I am "open for business" LOL! I also found out that I have lost 26 pounds since July 28th so that is great. I bought a scale the other day so I can keep track of my progress. I have 30 more to go! It hasn't even been two months yet! I need to give myself a break, but not a very big one. Exercise makes me feel good, and I haven't been in a hot tub in a year since you can't hot tub it while you are preggie! Whirlpool here I come!! Wish me luck and courage getting out of the house to the gym!!
