Two weeks postpartum



I feel great. My incision itches, but it doesn't hurt anymore. I shared my birth story on Roman and Joel's blog http://thebensontwins.blogspot.com

Long story short, I labored for almost 24 hours before having an emergency c-section due to a fever (mine) and fetal distress from both babies as a result of my fever. The fever was gone shortly after their birth--I was on IV antibiotics for 48 hours from the time of my section, and for a few hours before the boys were born.

The boys are doing great, they are BIG and healthy. And sooo sweet. I am truly very lucky to have such sweet little babies.

I have lost all my pregnancy weight, though I'm not allowed to exercise yet, so I may gain some of it back before my 6 week postpartum checkup. Hopefully at 6 weeks pp, I'll be allowed to exercise again, because dieting while breastfeeding is impossible--I am hungry constantly, and only large quantities of food will stave off the hunger!

Looking forward for the next months, I am filled with hope and feelings of joy. My heart is fuller than it has ever been.
