Hi Bellas,
It's been a whirlwind week spending our first days with Baby Arabella. Check out my super real baby update...the ups, the downs, and how I'm really feeling as a new mom. I also show you my stomach one week post partum. Check it out!

Updates
- Baby had her first doctor's appointment - she's already gaining weight back. It's completely normal for babies to drop a few ounces after delivery. As long as they gain it back within 2 weeks it's ok.
- Post partum symptoms - bleedings, stomach cramps, sore lady parts
- My stomach has gone down a lot - I'm also currently wearing a post partum belt around the clock
- I'm recovering from vaginal delivery with a first degree tear - some of my must haves - dermal, Motrin prescribed by doctor, hospital mesh underwear and pads
- I'm dealing with major breast engorgment - I'm doing a lot of icing and using my lansinoah gel packs and and Lansinoh Soothies for sore nipples
- About day 4 or 5 my boobs started to leak milk a lot. thank goodness for Lansinoh Breast pads
- I live in nursing tanks and bras!
- I'm super emotional - a combo of hormones, no sleep and dealing with all the new changes
- Baby girl is pretty fussy - she cries a lot especially at night
I've compiled a list of my post partum must haves on amazon. All products are purchased by me and seriously life savers. Check them out here.
