5-6 hours

I got close to 6 hours of sleep for the 3rd time since she was born. The first time was when she slept in her car seat while we visited my sister in TX when she was about 6 wks old. Then another time, just last weekend, she slept in her bassinet from midnight to 6am. Today she slept till about 4:30 after I fed her between 9/10 pm and I went to sleep around 10:30/11! yay. So I feel refreshed and ready to go @ 5AM! She's fallen back to sleep and I have to wake up my son around 7:30 for school. I guess I'll lie back down to try & get a small nap.

I ate some canned peaches, a mini mounds bar and a cup of soy chocolate milk after I put her down to continue sleeping. I'm trying to count my calories to see if I'm getting enough for breastfeeding. Since my appetite has never in my life been big, and I only eat to live as opposed to living to eat like New Orleans residents do, it's odd to be hungry all the time now. But I wonder how many calories I eat. I do NOT think i eat any where near 2000 like all the food charts servings are based on. We'll see what I consume today. I've begun my list.
