Random Ramblings of a Sleep Deprived Mom

Here are some things that may be of little or no interest to anyone, but lo and behold I am writing about them anyway. After my post about our germ filled visit to the pediatrician I was prompted by a couple of comments (one in particular, thanks Jessica) to finally DO something to change our circumstances. So for the first time ever this week our daughters both saw a pediatrician of our choice and it was fabulous...


I will never go back to our old health care plan again (okay, never say never, but hopefully never)! Anyway, our little dumpling Emme is weighing in at 10 lbs. 5 oz. and according to the Dr. she and I have established a very "healthy" relationship (meaning breast feeding is now going well, just in case anyone was wondering)...



Which leads me to my next point even though I know I am going to get a lot of flack from my brother for posting something else about breastfeeding (gasp), but he's been putting up with "girly stuff" his whole life so why stop now? Sometimes you run across those inventions that make you think, "WOW GENIUS", and just yesterday I found one. So to all of you who were so supportive and helpful with your breastfeeding tips, I'm happy to have one of my own to share. It's called a Milkie and it is revolutionary if you ask me. It collects every little drop of milk that otherwise might go to waste, it's fabulous...
I must admit I am jealous. I wish I could think of just one brilliant idea that would make me millions. I am beyond impressed that some moms brains seem to function well enough without sleep that they can still come up with successful new invention. And with that I'm headed to bed, maybe just maybe I'll dream up a money maker!
