She's sore, but doing well. Funny you mention Carmen's C because when Hannah came she had an emergency C and it ruined her for a couple of years - the scar was sensitive as could be, her bladder shrunk to a teacup size and she had to pee all the time (no jokes about the drug commercial..gotta go, gotta go, gotta go right now gotta go, gotta go, gotta go!) but this doctor was phenomenal and put her back together really well - he noted that she was a 'bit out of place' and he corrected the old doctor's hack job. All in all she only got tylenol up until this point but they gave her a percocet and now she's...well...perky! Sounds good for Melissa! Welcome to the terrible two. The only way to hear silence is to stay up until 3 am or get up before 8. It is quite a shock to have another. Well, you have Hannah in school. That helps!! Congrats! Happy for all four of you.

Actually we're blessed again with a quiet, easy-to-deal with baby. She doesn't howl much at all, but the only problem we're having is that M's milk hasn't come in (we think) so Natalie is pretty hungry when she's ready to eat and she lets us know it.
We supplement with bottles but I'm not allowed to feed her because of 'nipple confusion'...lol like I could EVER have my chest confused with Melissa's!

It was 5 days before I had milk too. A C-section makes it take longer. [URL="http://www.kellymom.com/bf/supply/milkproduction.html "]Here[/URL] is a great website for help with breastfeeding.
There are even forums, and they know the most about breastfeeding out of anyone. The attachment parenting gets out of hand, but I found the site and forums invaluable for nursing help/advice.

Well, the milk came in yesterday and all is well. The wife's boobies look like large grapefruits or small cantaloupes. I'm thinking that in 6 months this kid is going to be 90 pounds and 4 foot tall if she eats 'dem boobiemilks all up!
