Thanks for the suggestion, Chee--I was a bit unnerved at the idea of going from . . . can't actually remember how many points I'm at, but going from nursing to non-nursing points that abruptly was scary!
I'm trying hard to get dd interested in solids simply because I think it's time, but she just doesn't go for the pureed stuff! She only wants stuf she can hold and eat. She loves crackers and breadsticks but those aren't the most healthy things in the world, at least the ones she's eaten! I gave her a piece of toast this morning (whole wheat this time) and she seemed okay with it, nibbled a couple of bites. Anyway. I need to worry about my eating as much as hers right now!
What are you other nursing moms doing for exercise? Anything?
bc, congratulations on your new baby! I remember that feeling like it was yesterday. Actually, it was yesterday!
Even though my dd is 7 months, she is still very attached to her momma and wants to nurse fairly often and wants to be held a lot. She does play on the floor, too, but I feel like most of my time is spent with her, or cleaning/cooking/laundry/etc. for the rest of the family! In fact, the only way I'm on here right now is by "cheating"
. I'm supposed to be cleaning the kitchen, just don't want to.
You can tell when you need to drop your points down, if you aren't losing, just drop down one or two points. Take it slow. Good luck!
