Two Months Into Parenthood

OMG....my babies are going to be two months old tomorrow. I have mixed feeling about this. A part of me is sad that they're growing up so fast; another part of me is so happy that they're two months old = soon they'll sleep through the night (you can't blame any parents for wanting that).

It has been good a about a week, then all the sudden, two days ago, they're crying almost very waking moments unless they're being held. I have only two hands, and there are two of them. Even if i tried holding the two of them together, they still don't like it. I'm so glad it's weekend (Preston is home to help out). thank God

Feeding the babies

Nursing has been difficult now that they're a bit older and have bigger appetites. I had a major melt-down yesterday. The whole nursing thing is getting really frustrated and leaves me with very little sleep. I finally learned to accept that it's okay to supplement with formula (even though I have been, I didn't really want to). Today, everyone is happier. They're full and I'm more rested. I enjoyed them much more when I'm rested. Hopefully, it will continue to be this way until they can sleep through the night.
