First, let us say GO PHILLIES!!!!

It was a long night for several reasons. Firstly I am still waking Toby every 2-3 hours to feed, which is a process! If you've ever tried to wake Scott up you'll know what I mean!

Then the nursery nurse kept coming in to check on Toby. She almost seemed annoyed that she had to come to my room! On the contrary she should be pleased that I was rooming in and nursing my child!

My nurse came in a couple times to check on me, well several different nurses actually!

After nursing Toby he wanted to cuddle with me rather than go back in his bassinet, and I wasn't sure how much I should let him cry!! So we ended up nodding off together a couple of times before I would put him back in his own bed.

It wasn't until after about 6am that I actually got a good hour of continuous sleep! I slept on and off until about 11am when Scott got there. He'd stayed home with Emma for a while - apparently she is missing me! Hopefully I'll get out of here fairly early tomorrow.

I had a visit from my midwife and the midwife who was with us during the bulk of the labor. She thought we had done great and gave special kudos to Scott, who she thought was awesome! (I already knew that!) The nurse who had started the induction on Monday also came to visit!

Although I feel like I'm in prison I know I need the enforced rest, and my body is quickly recovering. The midwife told me that when I go home I am to be the queen for 2 weeks, not overdoing it or I'll reverse my recovery. I hadn't realized that I had gotten that rest with Emma because I was simply sitting at her bedside for weeks. Of course I also got mastitis because I wasn't staying hydrated etc!

I doubt I'll be queen-like, but I will try and take it easy, doing only what needs to be done by me at that moment.
