Hey girls
Still having trouble settling Dylan. I thought that we had a deal when he was wonderful for 2 nights or so with 3.5-4 hours between feeds, 3 hours in the day with extras in the morning and eve and only terribly unsettled at those extra feeding times, which was kinda manageable!
However it all changes!! Last night was 1.5-2 hours and we seem to now be experiences attachment issues, which makes me concerned a bit about introducing a dummy to take the edge off. AS a result also the sore nipples are back so I am now hanging out topless looking too much like a Brittney pregnancy warning!
BAH -- tell me this is normal!
I am now hanging out topless looking too much like a Brittney pregnancy warning - PML Nox, sorry! That is a very funny image!!! Bit cold lately.
I would highly recommend Lansinoh cream (you've prob already got some or heard about it), its brilliant and I used it all the time in the first few weeks until my boobs got used to what was going on. I used a dummy from day 1, needed my sanity and I found no trouble with feeding after using it. If you are really desperate for some sleep, just use it. Are you able to get some help with regard to the attachment issues?
And yes, all this stuff is normal (sorry to say!) and will get better as each day passes. Hang in there babe you are doing a super job!
