Sounds wonderful!! I felt like so tired I could barely move and then I felt like my insides were going to fall out whenever I was upright. I went to the shops for a very quick trip about a week PP after the second baby- just needed some new PJs from Sussan and being upright for that long almost killed me!
Internet connection has been a shocker this week, so sorry for my absence and no birth story yet!
Great responses to my question
My milk has come in and it's a bit of struggle street at the moment - I've expressed and that has made a teeny difference to comfort levels and I think I'd rather stay home until it settles a bit! Part of this babymoon is to stay put. I also think I bruised my coccyx and it's making most positions difficult to maintain and walking doesn't help. Aside from the painful tug in my groin. The afterpains are gonesies, thank goodness! I think they were masking the coccyx situation, though. I'm using comfrey paste on that area in desperation. So, I'm glad I planned to stay at home for at least two weeks (with a possible exception of catching up with my surf sisters on Friday, if I am up for it), cos this is where I want to be! That and the car is nowhere clean enough to put a baby seat into...
Maternal nurse is coming tomorrow.
I'll start working on the birth story when it's more comfortable to sit up
