I was about to change the "struggling" term into "trying hard". LOL!
Anyway, as hard as it sounds, after almost a month of giving birth I feel better and somehow recovered now. Thank God!
I still struggle to breastfeed but I have found a better way (and routine too). I don't breastfeed directly anymore since Andie is not happy with my "output" (LOL!) so what I do is I just pump every 2 to 3 hours, which is way better for her. After a few minutes of feed (now 3 ounces every feeding), she sleeps soundly. At night time she only wakes up twice or thrice and Hubby has been helping me all along.
(I love Hubby even more now! LOL!)
As for Ate Alex, she has adjusted pretty well too. Still craving for attention every now and then but I make it a point to make her "help" me with her baby sister (thanks to your advices ladies! ;) ). I also make time to watch cartoons with her while I blog. Haha. So as of the moment, she is sitting with me watching leapfrog while I post this.
I'm glad that things are turning out pretty well. The solution - SLEEP, PRAYERS and a LOVING husband. :D
So will cut this short for now. Still finding time to visit your blogs, but will do it very, very soon!
For updates, you can visit My Colorful World blog about my shopping sprees and my travel blog for our loots to give out this Christmas.
Have a nice Tuesday everyone!
