My little girl was born 24/1, but as she was born 4 weeks early it is likely that she will hit her milestones similar times to yours. Do you mind if I join here?
We had another pretty good night here we feed at 9.45, then wake at 12.40 then 4.40. Each feed change settle takes about an hour so I feel good! Although our last one ended with a free range wee when the nappy was in transit and so we had a complete outfit change as well
hey girls, Curtis was born on 25th January but im hoping you dont mind me joining you in here! I want to be able to keep in touch with you all and hear all about your little ones as they grow.
Joeve - DD2 is dangerous without a nappy - she not only wees but lifts her legs and fires off poos like missiles. Dave has been hit before. He was distraught and then as he was putting the new nappy on she also wee'd all over his hands! I still get a good laugh out of that. He is now a super fast ninja nappy changer!
Last night was good here. DH fed DD2 a bottle of expressed milk around 11 (I went to bed at 10). She then woke at 3:30 and then just recently at 7:45 (I've been up for an hour tho). Seems like they're all working 4 hourish overnight which is pretty good.
Nice tillie! I need to write mine I read through so many in prep for my labour and I honestly took on board a lot of things I learned from reading others experiences. So I will write one. I actually made some notes whilst in labour so I wouldnt forget.
My little girl hiccups after every single feed should I be worried? She did hiccup a lot in my belly but this is really hard for her she gets so cranky with them.
Ps nipples hurt

joeve I wouldnt worry about hiccups they are SO common. I hate when I have JUST laid DS down and he gets them. even my two year old gets them a lot!! not sure what sort of pain you're in with your nipples but do you have cream? Lanisoh was a lifesaver for me the first time around
Gee, I'm tired at the moment. I really shouldn't complain as I'm very lucky with her, but tonight DD2 fed at 9:30, 1:30 and woke now for 5. I probably wouldn't mind so much if it wasn't for the fact I feel this will be my 'up time' for the day (unless she feeds super quick). I'm expecting that I'll probably get her back down around 6, at which point is it worth going back to sleep? I like to have showered before DH goes to work (easier with the two) and he is leaving just after 7 at the moment. DD1 will wake anywhere from 6:30......
Yes I have that cream they are just tender. She doesn't like to let go of them no matter what! It's like a nipple cripple lol
Chody we are almost in tune with you with our feeds last night although we managed to last til 5.45 for the last one. I actually feel good
I just heard a pooexplosion off I go ....
Kisty has done about 4 poos in the space of the night!
No poo for me...haven't even felt the urge! Its gonna be big! hehe...
Did damage to Lt nipple overnight, again...gonna have to express and syringe feed today i think.... Day 3 and already broken! At least my vagina feels great!
