So much for the schedule

Back when Alex was bottle feeding, he reliably ate every 3-4 hours. Now, it ranges from 1 hour to 4.5 hours. For people who like follow a set schedule, this is a challenge.


Today we went to PEPS group again. Alex ate at 8am so we were all ready to go at 9am. Just as we were heading out the door, Alex decided he was hungry again. So, we were 20 minutes late. Since PEPS is all first time moms, at least one third of the others were late too.

In the afternoon, we went for a walk around Green Lake in the stroller. It was a beautiful day. Alex was unexpectedly hungry just as we were the maximum distance from the car. Mom had no choice but to find a secluded spot on the lawn and try breastfeeding. We are definitely not skilled enough yet to feel comfortable doing that. But, it all worked out and we got to enjoy the rest of the walk.
