It has not been an easy ride, there have been ups and downs and lots of things to figure out. During the first couple of weeks I had some major cabin fever because I was told that I shouldn't exert myself for the first 2 weeks which meant that I shouldn't take long walks or lift anything heavier then my baby (7lbs). Well I was going crazy, but luckily many friends and family came by to visit and keep me company with the baby. During week three I got an infection in the milk ducts of my breast and I had a fever for about three days before I new what was happening.
The biggest problem that I had to solve was creating a schedule and routines for me and Francisco. Now I make sure that I'm up by 9am. We shower, eat and get dressed. Mondays and Wednesdays we go to Gymboree. Tuesdays I go to Central Park for the walking tours if weather permits it. On Thursdays I meet up with my mother and sister for lunch, and Friday I just make sure that we go on a long walk. As long as I follow this weekly schedule I'm out of the house at least once a day and that makes a big difference. Usually I also visit Nia at work or go for long walks in Riverside or Central Park.
So now that I have figured out a few things I hope that I can slowly add more activities to my days including this blog...
