I know there are some new parents here on the boards … how is everyone doing? **McDeath** and I are doing great with our little McStain … she is doing great … she’s 6 weeks + 3 days old, weighs 7 pounds 2 ounces, and is the most wonderful baby in the world! We each manage to get a few hours of sleep a night, by trading off feedings, and the rest of the time I mostly breastfeed the little muffin. I’m at home with the baby for the next 8’ish months, and Daddy is back at work. So far I am really enjoying being at home with the baby …! ---
