mother bear/ day 1/ multitasking

revelation 1: I have no time to blog! I think it would have been a cool project to document the first 45 days of motherhood/babyhood. but, who has the time? with a 3 year old & a 3 week old this just isn't happening.

here I am, 21 days into scarlett-bear's life & i'm taking a moment to check in here.

except i'm not.

what i'm actually doing is breastfeeding scarlett on the right boob (what I should be paying attention to), collecting leaking milk on the left boob (into this milk saver contraption I just pulled out of storage, never got the chance to use it with jude, and i'm stoked to find out that it works!), holding my boob away from her nose with my left hand, hunt & peck typing with my right, longing to finish chuck Palahniuk's new book that's on the couch next to me, and letting my lunch get cold. (which I should really be eating so that I can make more milk).

and this is with one kid at home - jude's on a nap/drive with daddy.

wish me luck!

good luck mommy!
