I had my 2 week follow-up appointment with Jenny Allen this morning. Got some "not so good" news that I pretty much knew was coming. I have severe postpartum depression. :( She told me a few things that I can do to help. She said I definitely need to ask for help when I need it and that I could use a little more adult conversation and interaction with visitors. She also said I am going to be coming back in 2 weeks to see her again. I need to get up every morning and get a shower before Brian leaves so that I don't go days without showering. She also recommended Brian take off a little more time to be with me and Callen. We'll see what happens! So glad that I have an awesome midwife that cares so much!! She really is the best.
Ms. Allen did give me some good news!! First, I have a really cute kid! :D Second, I lost 21 of the 35 pounds I gained throughout my pregnancy. Third, I can start coming to her for my regular "lady exams." :) (I asked if she did those and she does!) So overall, this visit with Ms. Allen was great!! She is an awesome lady! :)
Tomorrow Callen has an appointment with Dr. Foland and Dr. Bryson. He is going to be circumcised and have his 2 week check up. Please pray for me that I don't cry so much tomorrow! :(
