It is incredible how fast time passes by. Our little Sofia is now almost three weeks old and everything is starting to get more and more settled. We have gone through a tough first week with me having Mastitis and bareley being able to get up from bed, with almost 40 degrees fever and pain in my entire body. A ten-day cure through Antibiotics helped me get better and I really have to thank my second half, Raul, who helped basically with everything, even bringing Sofia to my bed, so I could feed her.After a couple of days I started feeling much better, which was a huge relief! However, somehow my milk supply went so low, that little Sofia needed to get mainly formula after every breastfeeding. And - who can blame her, since the bottle is so much easier to drink from, she got a little lazy and we are now working on getting my milk supply back up and her to get motivated to drink from me again. But I must say she is doing great and I am hopeful that everything will be normal soon.
Other than these little hick-ups during those first weeks, I am so thankful that everything else went well. The birth was a wonderful experience, of course not without any pain - but without any complications whatsoever. We got a healthy baby girl, who is such an angel during days and nights, and feels like a miracle to watch her on every move she takes. Her funny faces and her sounds while sleeping are indescribably cute!
Today I gave her a bath and she really enjoyed it this time - I even got a little smile, while she was pedaling her legs under the water :)
Last weekend we had a very nice couple of days, as my family gave us a surprise visit! I am really thankful for all the support during the last couple of weeks as I have been talking with either my mum or dad almost every day. We spend three days in Lund with beautiful weather and Sofia took her first little trips outside the house. We took a walk to downtown Lund, we spend a nice time at Stadsparken, took a walk around Nova Lund and even around Dalby Stenbrott, where Sofia slept in her baby wrap all the way.Lexa had a good time pushing Sofia in her pram and we even got to celebrate my dad's birthday in a restaurant, which Sofia managed perfectly without any complaints at all.
Once my family left, we realized that we got a full fridge, which saved us some trips to the supermarket this week. Thank you for all!
