We are 2.5 weeks into the life of Miles. The first week was a bit of a blur. We made it home and had some pretty rough nights in terms of sleeping. Miles was waking up almost every hour at night to nurse. I have never really experienced true sleep deprivation until now. Boy is it hard! Grant says, welcome to the club...
Luckily, after a few days, Miles started sleeping around 2.5 to 3 hours at a time. Who would have thought that would ever sound like a long stretch? Nursing is going really well. In a few weeks we will introduce a breast milk bottle so Grant can help with feeding.
Grant is just the most amazing father. Seeing him become a father has been one of the most beautiful experiences I could imagine. He cares for Miles with such deep love and tenderness. He is also helpful beyond belief at home with chores. I feel pretty darn lucky.
Miles is starting to be more alert and active. I can't wait until he can smile at us. Right now he is loving baths and laying in his activity gym.
