Cooper had another good night. Chris seems to have mastered the feeding. After two nights on the night shift he was pretty worn out. Luckily I am feeling much better today so I have taken over baby duty for the weekend. Cooper doesn't seem to like my feeding technique as well as Chris' because he doesn't eat as much when I do it.
I needed a prescription refilled so Aunt Carole came over and drove me to Target and the grocery store so Chris could rest. It was nice to get out of the house and do something other than go to the doctor's office. One of the things I bought was a thermometer for Cooper's room. It seemed to me that it was too cold in there and my mother's instinct was correct because it was only 64 degrees. So maybe I'm not as paranoid as I think. Aunt Carole hung out with us for a while and gave Cooper a baby massage. Mostly she found his ticklish spots (the underarms are a real hot spot).
I forgot to mention yesterday that I got my test results back from the doctor. I still have protein in my urine in the 100s. The doctor said this could persist for a couple months. I'm supposed to check my blood pressure twice a day and come back in next Thursday for more lab work. I'm feeling better now that I am taking less medicine and I seem to be getting my old energy back. Hopefully I'll find out next week if I can drive again.
