Sleep, interrupted

The first full day of Uly's life has been mercifully uneventful. He's pretty chill and cries only during a changing or when he's hungry. Most of the time he's slept. The nurse says this may change.

It's 20 'till 5 in the morning and I just changed his diaper. I thought I'd write until I became tired again. I've got to research how to live with cloth diapers (wet pail, I think the process is called), so I may just do that, too. We're using Motherease. They have a one-size-fits all approach using adjustable snaps. We liked the idea so Beck and I ordered a sample. I believe it'll work.

Being awake is a bit painful, but he has a beautiful face and that kind of eases everything.
