Yesterday Rowan turned 1 month old! Crazy how fast the time goes. He is just perfect still. Enjoying every waking moment with him and even dreaming about him in the sleeping moments. He's really enjoying spending time with us and advancing very quickly. He is starting be more aware of his surroundings. He does look around a lot and stare blankly at certain things. But that means he's getting more curious about objects and soon will be wanting to grab at them.
He is holding his head up VERY well. Not completely there yet but much more then I could ever imagine. It's wonderful watching him change. Sad that it's happening so quickly but great nonetheless.
This weekend is Thanksgiving weekend and we are planning on heading down to Kitchener to see Poppy and Gammy. They are moving also this weekend so hopefully it won't take up to much of our visiting time. We are also planning on heading to Leamington to see my Grandparents. It's planned to be a surprise. They are going to be SO excited to see there great grand son. My Grampa had hip surgery a little over a month ago and can't travel long distances in the car. So they didn't think they would manage to see Rowan till months from now. It'll be really amazing being all together. Really looking forward to it!
Things with myself have been alright. I have some postpardum issues that I have to take some medications for. The main two things are my voice and my skin on my face. I have TERRIBLE ache since having Rowan, even when I was pregnant I was getting quite a bit of it. But it's about 10 times worse now. I'm pretty sure it was breast feeding related. Ever since I have stopped pumping (which was about 6 days ago now. It seems to have been getting a little better. I was at the doctor this week and it's pretty much the first thing he noticed as he walked into the room. So now I am taking some sort of medication to help clear it up. Hopefully it'll go quickly! As far as my voice is concerned, it's been so low and raspy since being pregnant. About half way through my pregnancy it started. I had terrible heart burn so I'm afraid that acidty casued damage (which I've read online and my doctor said was possible). Taking medication for that as well... but if I don't see a change in 6-8 weeks I will have to get tests done to determine if it can be fixed or if it's permanent. I pray it's not.
That's all my news this week. Will try posting at least a couple times a week as I'm off with Rowan this whole year. Lot's of things to report I'm sure :)
