Zachary boy is home with us! He came 3 weeks earlier on 1/11/11. Contrary to what most people would have thought, we did not choose his birth date. It was a natural delivery instead of a Caesarian birth. So the post natal ward and nursery were full house, let alone choosing the type of rooms we wanted. Well even though we weren't able to secure a single room, everything else went quite smoothly and that's more important than anything else.
With the great help from the confinement nanny, things are going quite alright and I'd say I am tolerating confinement days pretty well. The only complaint is too much time spent on "breast-related" activities. I pump & nurse all day long due to overproduction by my mammary glands. Apart from the regular nursing, I can still express some 3-5 bottles extra to be stored in the fridge. I'd like to store them for future use but, but, but my confinement nanny will use them up when I am just too lazy to drag myself up for the midnight feed. Nothing surprising hehe...
Pain and aches from childbirth are gone but still feeling exhausted and definitely need a good back & hands massage to soothe soreness from breastfeeding posture. I suppose I won't be blogging too often from now onwards but the pregnancy journey til the day of Zachary's birth is definitely worth another entry! Will probably do that in the next post. Last but not the least, here's Zachary....
