Finally, we leave Uptown

This morning I took TH on his first subway ride (much to Proud Papa's chagrin -- he thinks the subway's full of germs) so that we could attend a breastfeeding class in Chelsea. This was the first time TH had ever been below 59th Street. TH slept the whole trip, as usual.


The class went well; after some practice, we finally got TH to feed. We aren't there yet, but it's a start. I also liked meeting the other 10 mothers in the class ... not to mention their babies. So many babies, and all of them so tiny!


You think TH is small? Turns out it's all relative -- he was easily the biggest kid in the class, and he wasn't even the oldest. At his in-class weigh-in he was a hefty 11 lbs, 6 oz. No wonder my arms are tired.
