Well, we are doing pretty well today. Went to the LC clinic today for some more help with bf. It was good. The LC I saw was the same as who helped me with Lily. She's really nice and helped me with some basics that I was doing wrong and it has changed everything! So hopefully this will be the end of my tears at feed times.
DH is trying to not give Lily milk in her bottles tonight. He's been weaning her off it, slowly putting water into it. I don't think it will change much, she'll probably just wake for water instead, LOL! The mchn referred us to the early support team for her sleeping to try to make things easier for me when DH goes back to work. She's coming on Monday, hopefully with some useful strategies.
I had about 4hrs broken sleep last night. I tried Liam in his cradle, so that DH could sleep in our bed for a change, he's been on the lounge since we came home cause he wont cosleep with the kids when they're so little. But I would like to get him into the cradle. Maybe I should ask the sleep lady on Monday. Luckily I got to sleep this arvo. I was seriously falling asleep when feeding Liam a few times today. We slept for 3hrs. And it was blissful!! Especially as today has been really cold, rainy and miserable in Sydney.
Our house is a shambles. There's crap everywhere, I need to wash up and the pile of clothes is multiplying in the laundry. Everyone keeps on telling me not to worry, but seriously there's some things that you HAVE to do, that you HAVE to worry about. Like washing clothes and dishes. Regularly. More regularly than I have been.....Things like mopping and stuff,fair enough you can not do for a while, but washing up, cleaning toilets, things like that, has to be done!!!
Anyway, got to fix dinner and Lily is sooking....
