Baby!!

I've been gone from the blog for over a month because I had a baby!! It's been crazy and exhausting and wonderful.

Elizabeth Scarlett Peterson Korikova everyone ( a pic from a couple of days old):

She was born August 6, at 3:21 am. 7lbs 6 oz with a full head of hair.

Me being extremely thrilled not to be pregnant anymore (1 week postpartum):

A month old baby!!:

 

I haven't been on my computer since before August 6, I can't find my charger (somehow my computer still has 46% percent on it, go Macs), but I'm slowly catching up to normal life.

I'll update the blog slowly in the next couple of weeks. I'm going to write about:

1. How my labour went
2. What the last month has been like being a new mom
3. The diet my dad is on and how it helped him
4. IgG tests and why they're not a scam (I'll go into the science behind it a bit)
5. New foods we've managed to reintroduce (plus the last reaction I had)
6. Top foods to avoid if you don't want to do a full elimination diet
7. Ketosis and the ketogenic diet vs other diets (paleo, SCD, low carb, low FODMAP, low salicylate, vegetarian, vegan, etc.)
8. Supplements and vitamins I take
9. What I eat in a day

I'll try to squeeze in as much writing as I can, I'm super busy. I'm working part time for my dad, cooking, cleaning, nursing 24/7 it seems, and I'm going to stick in 30 minutes of Russian a day. Oh and a university course. This is the third day I've been busy doing things. I managed to nurse, eat, do laundry, clean up the kitchen, look at my course, and start writing today. YAY back to normal-ish life.

Hopefully I can find my charger or this spree won't last long.
