Cadence hit the 6 week mark yesterday, and thus it was time for my post-partum check-up. The PA checked me over and took care of doing my annual exam then, too, which was nice because I'm switching to a type of non-insurance that doesn't cover preventive care--so I won't have to pay to have that visit done in a few months again!
We continue to try to figure out Cadence's sleep patterns at night. It's definitely gotten easier the past couple nights, but I can't say that I feel like she's really hit a rhythm yet. For example, last night she went down at 10:30, and I just put her down at 11:05, but now I hear that she's awake again! For me the hardest part is just not knowing when she's finally going to fall asleep for the night--I hate the back and forth! We did watch the Happiest Baby on the Block DVD, which gave us some good strategies for calming her down--I can't say that they work 100% of the time, but I feel like they've helped us, especially James, have more tools in our arsenal for combating her fussy periods.
Tonight we went on our first family run to the park--although we didn't actually run very much, it was nice to be a little more active.
