Leaking



... state of losing fluids. In cars, this means they overheat and/or the engine stops working. In women it means the engine is more than ready for action. The recipient of one of the most common leaks is a small bundle of joy, absolutely cute and as a result the leaking mom usually swoons and falls in love with her little one all over again, every time she nurses. The fluid she leaks is tasty and nutritious.



When a car leaks, a woman is maybe slightly bothered. If she’s married, she might try to convince her husband that it wasn’t her fault (if she is I, she knows better, though). The damage is repaired and that’s it. If the driver was a man, he’s usually grumpy, throws his hat to the ground and stomps onto it because he forgot to put water or fuel into the right tank and this is embarrassing because caring for a car and preventing a leak is considered part of the initiation into adult male groups, researchers say. :D The fluids a car leaks are neither tasty nor nutritious. 





Just a quick mid-week note, to tell everybody we are doing fine. The nights are short, baby and mommy (me!) are sleepy, content and happy. Mathilda can smile! ... in her sleep. I forgot how long until she can actively smile, as a reaction, but I have seen her doing it in her sleep and that was so cute! 

Oh hey, I  h a v e stuck to the 'baby sleeps, you sleep' rule well, but nevertheless, I am feeling completely unable to think about more than basic body functions, such as leaks. Tv is kind of out of question, because that time is valuable for snoozing in bed. ... Well, I'd love to watch a few minutes Voice of Germany later this week, but don't know if I get hubby's permission (even I love Lucy has to wait!).




If I forgot to comment in your blog, I am really sorry and try to do better again. I miss reading more in your blogs, seeing how you are doing (but I do try to catch up).

I hope you all have an extraordinarily lovely week!

  1. Love the comparison between the different kinds of leaks Nina lol. So glad to hear all is well with you and Mathida and that you are managing to get at least some rest when she does. Smiling in her sleep ... awwe :)

    Hugs

    1. Hi Roz, leaking is a topic here, well at least for Mathilda and me. :) And Willie's 'baby sleeps, you sleep' advice is absolutely important (... and not always easy to follow), if I don't sleep when Mathilda does, I feel the effect so much by now, that I am all game for anyone sending me to bed. Oh what a heavenly place! :) Mathilda smiling was so cute, I am waiting for it all the time now, but it didn't happen yet, and (of course) I can't wait for her smiling when she's awake, but that will take another few weeks, I guess.

      hugs

  2. Great comparison. I didn't leak until I stopped feeding, then I drenched the bed.
    Sleep when she sleeps is often the only way to survive those first few weeks. It is like perpetual jet lag.
    The first real smile is never to be forgotten - usually about 6 weeks, enjoy the 'windy' smiles, as we called them :)

    1. Hi DF, perpetual jet lag sounds like a great comparison, too. Too bad, I thought that Mathilda's smile was more than just 'windy', but I am afraid I really have to wait a little longer then. Hey, that's only about four more weeks for the real one! :)

      hugs

    2. It doesn't matter why they smile, it's a cute moment and one to cherish :)
