tk - well done posting. That was a big one ;-) regarding contraception, DH has just got the snip but it apparently doenst come into full effect for about 40 ejaculations so atm we are using condoms. Mind you we have only DTD once since Emily was born.

Saffi - too bad bout the bfing but it will be much less stressful for you both now anyway. Theres always the next bub to try again ;-)

afm - Going back to the gym next week YAY! Im really looking forward to it but nervous at the same time. Emily will be going into the creche so it will be the first time someone else has looked after her. I hope she is good for them. I will just make sure she has had a feed before I put her in. My goal is to run the full 12k in the city to bay fun run next year (and lose weight in the process with the training, got about 20kg to lose) and I want to help raise money for CARES-SA (Caesarean Awareness Recovery Education Support SA) and group I am involved in that more people should know about. Especially those who have had a c-section.

Emily seems to be getting a bit better, she is still a bit restless during the day but most nights are ok now and I have been getting about 7 hours of broken sleep which I can cope with. I do have some good days though but most are spent holding her and feeding her and trying to settle her. I have pretty much given up on the infants friend, was a pain and I didnt find it made a lot of difference.

Anyway Emily has just woken again so gotta go.

Bye for now.
