The first weeks of motherhood...

Wow, I can't believe little Eva is two weeks old today.  It seems like she has been part of our lives a lot longer.  It is also hard to believe I have officially been a mother for two weeks.  Although, I felt semi prepared for motherhood, it is amazing all the things I didn't know.

Things I have learned in the first two weeks...

• Newborns sleep A LOT (a lot more than I thought).
• Newborns can spit up brown junk.  Apparently this is totally normal because they may have swallowed amniotic fluid or blood.
• There can be a bloody discharge due to hormones from the mother.
• Newborns not only spit up, but can projectile vomit and be perfectly fine. 
• Sometimes newborns want to eat all the time.
• Everyday is different, from sleeping, to eating, to crying.
• My husband is an amazing dad.  He is a great diaper changer, comforter, and over all great support for both me and baby!
