Nursing gymnastics





Maryam doesn't sit still anymore, not even for nursing. It's gotten to be crazy, how she'll twist her body in weird contortions and still eat.





Maryam is still supposed to be getting most of her nutrition through breast milk, and she still does like to nurse. But I'm telling you, it's a bit awkward when she won't lie still. Even at night, she'll nurse a bit, than try to crawl and nurse at the same time. It doesn't work that way!


She's so proud of herself, and happy. Jim and I often ask ourselves what we did to deserve such a happy, wonderful baby. Oh, just a side note. I measured her thighs today, and they've shrunk from a huge 14 inches to 11 inches. My skinny baby! Ok, so not skinny perhaps. But not as chunky!
