off colour

ugh... i've been having the runny nose the whole day n feeling absolutely terrible! doesnt help that i'm in the office n not at home with my little one

:( can u imagine trying to express milk with a drippy nose? i literally had to stick the tissue up my nose so i wouldn't drip icky stuff onto the milk bottles :P i bet i'd have made an interesting subject for a candid photographer ...

anyway i'm not the only one who's a little off colour.. ethan has been having green poo the last few days!!! i'm guessing its cos of the imbalance of foremilk/hindmilk that he's been getting since i started latching him on, and i've been so obsessed with his poo since then! just couldnt WAIT for him to go. and every time i change his diapers i'll secretly be chanting "pls be yellow.. pls be yellow..". i never knew i could be this obsessed over shit - motherhood sure does strange things to a person's value system! anyhow i hope it's a passing phase n that it gets itself sorted out soon. otherwise i sure will miss the bonding time with him. u know, this bond i feel when i latch him on? its just indescribable n irreplaceable :) i know its just me, n ethan probably couldnt care less whether the milk came from a cow or just rained down on him from above (but i think he does have a preference for the bottle!). so long as there's milk, we've got a happy little camper!!! if only we could all be as easily contented in life. perhaps that's y babies make each day seem brighter n full of hope :)
