Hi Ruf,

I'm sorry that your MCHN rattled you like that - she should know better than to create stress for a Mum of a newborn and a toddler!

I think you're doing brilliantly hun I imagine it must be a real adjustment for your DS1, to have to share his Mummy, but I know that you'll find the most lovely and sensitive way to help him deal with that and get used to it, even though I know it must be really hard when so much of your time and energy are going towards feeding your new little man.

You should feel really confident - that beautiful weight gain and amazing change in your LO's length should give you every right to feel confident in exactly what you are doing now - how wonderful!

I know that it must be really difficult at the moment with only 2-3 hours max between feeds, but I hope that will change before long and it's about riding it out until then - I remember what you went through with DS1 when he was tiny, and you rode that out and got through it amazingly, and I know that you can do this too

Sending you lots and lots of sleepy, restful vibes, hun. And just to say how amazing I think you are and a big hug from me and DD to you and your little men.
