Audrey's Parenting Journal for Aurora <3 -
October 18th 2010, 08:36 PM
OK, so Aurora is sleeping in her nursery like a little angel so while I finally have some time to myself, I'm going to try a parenting journal . 
Aurora Avery was born October 15, 2010 weighing 7 lbs, 2 oz, and measuring 19 inches.
Her birth story is here: http://www.teenhelp.org/forums/f7-pregnancy-childcare/t57275-may-time-im-going-hospital/#post498768
We just got home from the hospital today so things have started to go back to normal...or, at least as normal as possible. 
Here is Aurora in her coming home outfit:
I love her so much! 
Well that's it for this first post. I'm going to try to get some rest while she sleeps.

Thank you all!
Guile-She has blue eyes
Thanks again everyone! Today is day two of being home (or, you could consider it the first full day), and Aurora is just wonderful. She got up a few times during the night but when she did she usually just fell right back asleep after I rocked her.
She LOVES being rocked. She usually falls asleep within ten minutes when she's rocked. And I enjoy rocking her and singing to her. It's good bonding time!

You have a beautiful baby. I am pregnant at 14 and in a tough situation. Is it hard to go through labour and then start to raise a kid?
I fall in love...
I do things I shouldn't do...
I have my heart broken again and again...
I am a risk taker!

I kept a pregnancy diary with Dante, I still write in it from time to time about milestones and what not. Its a great idea to keep a journal of your little ones accomplishments, they grow up so quickly!

Aurora was very fussy last night. I'm not entirely sure why...she would cry and even when I would pick her up or cuddle her, or feed her she would still cry. She finally stopped, but she was crying for a good hour nonstop. She did the same thing again an hour and a half later. I didn't get much sleep, but at least I was awake for something important!

Aww. I remember when my cousin had her baby, she told me that she thinks that infants should come into the world with a knowledge of what sleeping in on weekends are. xD
I just thought I'd share that with you =] Thought you might enjoy it. =D

Thank you all so much!!!
Haha yay I'm glad you approve! lol
What is Nordic and Keltic? lol
Aurora had a bit of the sneezies today. She probably sneezed 12 or 13 times. Like a worried mom, I asked my mom and googled and even called the doctor to make sure she wasn't sick.
They all told me the same thing: it's normal because babies breathe through their nose for the first couple of months. My doctor also told me that they sneeze to clear their lungs and nasal passages of residual amniotic fluid...so I guess I was worrying for nothing! lol

I am getting a little worried, because today Aurora didn't just spit up, she threw up. Twice. Like, projectile vomit. I'm about to call the doctor if she doesn't get better.

Thank you! It was scary, but when I called the doctor, he told me that her body could have unexpectedly rejected the food, or she ate too much in too little time. It stopped, and hasn't come back, but if it does I'm suppose to call the doctor again.

Thank you guys! The vomiting never came back, I'm happy to announce! haha
And I'm so excited!!! We just scheduled a trip for me, Aurora, my mom, and my sister to visit my aunt and uncle in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan at their cottage in March 2011, just around the time that Aurora is 5 months! It's going to be so much fun!!
