hehe, I noticed the timing too Joy, but it'll speed up once everyone is able to get online again

Several have been MIA for a while !!!

Well, we had a breakthrough this arvo - found the problem for Jen's back. The triangle pillow she had been using wasn't "tall" enough (vertically) to get Jordy into the right spot

So she was basically crouching over to push her boobs down a bit so he could reach em. I noticed the curled over shoulders and told her to pull em back. Of course he lost the nipple and couldn't reach it

Put another pillow under the triangle and wala!! She has her shoulders pulled back, is sitting very comfortably (well in comparison to before) and thank god, Jordy is still loving the boob


She was very stressed and crying about not being able to feed properly and all the benefits that b/f'ing gives and wanting the best for him etc etc. Spoke with my mum yesterday who basically said she will probably have to accept the fact that she won't be able to feed him anymore. Well that idea is now out the window - YIPPEEEE

Still gotta follow on with a bottle, but at least he's getting some breast milk



Now, what lovely things did all you ladies get for mothers day (and for some, your FIRST mothers day). Seeing I recently started working at home, it meant I don't get to the shops at all, so didn't "buy" anything - not even a card

But I have to pop into my office tomorrow (do my timesheet) so will get a card, and I'm gonna give her a handwritten voucher to say this is for a photo session of her, Jordy and me, when she wants to do it (she said something about getting this done a few days ago)
