So Bella is 6 months ... and 25lbs!!!!
She's HUGE.
She's not even that chubby anymore , just
incredibly long and stocky, and she still
has those cheeks!
She just got over bronchitis so I wouldn't
be surprised if she lost an ounce or two ,
but hopefully her weight gain slows down
for a bit, she eats solids now (veggies
and fruit) and is on a stricter more
scheduled diet... (like only 6oz per
feeding etc.)
They aren't too concerned , they just want
to even her out a wee bit.
She has got one of her bottom front teeth
out almost all the way , and the one
beside it is just starting to break the
skin and I'm almost positive one is comign
through the top as well.
She's not super cranky just very restless
and a bit whiny and super snuggly, which I
don't mind one bit!
I will add pics very soon , just need to
find the time!
As for me... I'm still just dealing with
everything, but I'm starting counselling
this week and it's great because it is
free and they will come to my house. So at
least it's convienent and in an enviroment
I'm okay in.
I'm nervous but I think I'll be better off
with some input from someone who knows a
thing or two about all this junk.
I also start another second job in two
weeks. I know it will be a lot on my plate
, but the money will be better... (i'm not
on assitance and do not receive any child
support) so every little bit counts, I'm
sad ... but with both jobs I'll only be
working between 40-50 hours a week.
Its just what I have to do.
So yeaa just thought I'd let you all know
how things were!

Thanks for the update! I'm glad to here

be hard at first but hopefully it will

I am glad that things are getting better
for you. I think that you really did the
right thing by getting some
counseling......it will help you in the
long run! Sorry hun that you have to work
two jobs, but you are one strong girl and
I give you so much credit with being able
to deal with all that you have going on in
your life right now.
Can't wait for some pics of Bella...I bet
she is just beautiful!!! I love chubby
babies!!
