Okay...let me first say...that last year at this time I was *newly* pregnant. Yes, I knew already. I was practically sick from day one.
With that being said...onto the post:
I'm not exactly sure how to word this, but I'm going to try my best.
I have been thinking about different things I want to do for Jaden. I knew I wanted to breastfeed for at least 6 weeks. Then it became 3 months...then 6...then a year. Now, I'm thinking I want to let him self wean. Not only do I want to self wean, but I also want to continue to pump (as long as I'm still producing milk) and donating it. *Which I haven't told Greg...I'm sure he would be supportive...after much discussion*
Something that newly popped into my head was maybe to start cloth diapering. I realize I might be crazy...but I think it'll be good. I have no idea why I'm thinking I want to start, but I think it's because I realize how much money we spend on disposable diapers. Seriously, he goes through about 14 diapers a day and that means we go through about 400 diapers a month! That adds up quick. And besides, cloth diaper covers are so cute. (And can be made from old t-shirts)
Yes, I know I might sound a little nuts. I've become a co-sleeping, breastfeeding, cloth diaper considering, vaccinating, possible extended rear facing, baby wearing momma.
Pretty much, I'm becoming a "hippy" mom. And I'm okay with that.
Just further shows how your life changes with that first cry. And will continue to change as he grows.
Until Next Time:
