NIGHT TIME ROUTINE WITH A NEWBORN | 2 WEEKS OLD + EXCLUSIVELY BREASTFEEDING | Tara Henderson

[Music] [Laughter] [Music] hi guys welcome to my channel so for today's video I thought it would be fun and interesting for you guys to see what an entire night with a newborn baby looks like so I am exclusively breastfeeding our two week old little boy Grayson I had him two and a half weeks ago and right now he's currently waking up every two to three hours to feed so when I show you guys and what our nights typically look like so I just finished feeding him it's about 7:45 right now and I just put him down for his first like night stretch so I anticipate him to wake up around 11 o'clock give or take I don't know we'll see when he ends up waking up but I hope you all enjoyed today's video be sure to give it a thumbs up if you enjoy these types of vlogs and I'll try to film more of them I know we need to film and updated morning and nighttime routine now that Grayson is here that is off my agenda so I'll be sure to film that for you guys soon [Music] so after I'm done nursing and burping him I'll swaddle him up in his bassinet and it's usually hit or miss with him passing out right away or me needing to replace his binky a few times until he falls asleep the best thing that he's sleeping in is this new by the happiest baby and it's by far my number one must-have baby item it is pricey but they do have the option to rent it which is such an amazing idea we're renting ours for three months and I'm so glad we decided to it saved me in my sleep this time around we're using the hatch white noise and nightlight for him and I love it so much you can change the color to whatever you want it to and it has a bunch of different noises to choose from and you can also control everything from the app on your phone to which is super convenient [Music] 10:44 is when grayson woke up for a second nursing session of the night [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] after I get them up out of the bassinet I'll take him over to the changing pad on our dresser and change him into a fresh diaper [Music] [Music] [Music] Grayson is a super-efficient nurser and usually will drain my milk within 10 minutes or so around a week and a half after you was born is when he was able to nurse from both breasts but in the meantime when he's feeding from one side I'll use the Hakka to catch my letdown so it doesn't go to waste and a breast pad this is another must-have and definitely recommend it if you plan on breastfeeding [Music] in between nursing and burping I always sneak in the countless kisses and cuddles from him I could honestly do this all day there's nothing better than newborn breath and staring into his eyes [Music] occasionally he will need another diaper change before I lay him back down to sleep and this was one of those times [Music] [Music] Grayson was the most active in my belly at around 11 o'clock at night so this is usually the hardest time for me to try to get him back down to sleep I usually have to replace his binky countless times until he falls back asleep [Music] and then I can finally sleep until I'm woken up again at 3 in the morning [Music] I'll do the same thing as before except this time I'm a lot more exhausted and usually end up nursing with my eyes closed [Music] I also usually end up having to use the restroom to change my pad at least once in the middle of the night because I am still bleeding give me oh oh gosh I want you nursing on top of the insane postpartum night sweats causes me to become extremely thirsty so I'm coming into the kitchen to fill up my cup of water and I'm adding my after ease drops to help with the post labor contractions [Music] you and me yeah that's all I need and I'll be all right right I swear that I'll stay here with you [Music] cause I wanna stay with you [Music] Oh if you are get [Music] as each other [Music] it's fine then I'm back to sleep again before getting woken up at 6 a.m. for Grayson's 4th feet [Music] tell me what what you wanna do I'll do anything as long as I can be here with you everything sorry [Music] 9:00 a.m. is when he woke up after I put him down at 6:00 so he's been pretty consistent at waking every three hours to nurse at night [Music] if you are [Music] and after I finished changing him into a fresh diaper I'll nurse them again and then I'll get up for the day but usually won't end up changing out of my PJs or looking any better than I do right now but these sleepless nights covered in sweat and milk are all worth it for this cute guy [Music] give me all your love [Music]
