    Leah just wondering if you told the nurse about adding extra water to the formula? She may be not getting enough from it as she wasn't finishing the bottle. Stop diluting it and see it that helps.
    Just a thought that's all...

    Hi Girls!

    Hope everyone had a good weekend! DD good on you for giving DH a taste of your daily activities! It is full on huh! Especially at that evil hour during the evening! Emilia spends from 6 - 9 pm in the Baby bjorn its the only place she will stay quite and possibly sleep (or if you hold her!)

    Leah dont worry you arent a bad mum you are just learning! She will be just fine, and good luck getting back to your pre preg weight i hope you get that weekend away. how good will it be! I pretty much returned to pre preg weight 3 days after birth, i only put weight on in my middle and it seemed to be all baby so i am happy about that, i just want to make sure now that i dont add any on! I would like to lose 5 kgs as i felt i was carrying a tiny bit of weight before i got pg, but i just cant stop eating now that i am breast feeding! its hungry work!!

    Simone glad to hear you are enjoying perth! The weather has been amazing lately though today is a bit crappy, have dry the clothes in the dryer today

    I am heading over to my friends now she has a little bub called Mia and she is 1 week younger than Emilia. we have started our own little mothers group with a few of us who did pregnancy swimming together which is great!

    We went out on saturday night for the first time and my parents looked after Emilia, she took 130 mls of breast milk! little porker! and she slept through till 4am!!! love her love her! Last night i tried her in the grobag sleeping bag and she was great she didnt wake till 5 am! so i am not going to bother wrapping her anymore as i think she prefers the bag!

    Glad to hear all is going ok in your baby worlds!!!

    Wow I logged in here thinking there will be a mile of posts to catch up on, thankfully for me there aren`t many, with 2 little ones I don`t know if I`m coming or going then with all 4 boys here all weekend I`m well and truly totally disorganised LOL How do you girls do it all with more then 1 child? Will I ever be organised? I`m dreading the school hoildays with all 4 boys here and all the washing, I`ve already told both DSS that they can wear their clothes 3 days in a row (joking!!!!).

    Danik - Sounds like Emilia is doing well and also sleeping well, which is great.

    Leah - You`ll loose those extra kilos in no time, I was worried about my extra weight with Matthew but lost it all by the time I was pregnant again at 5.5 months post birth, this time round is a different story, I lost all my weight immediately as I was all baby. I can`t help with the formula feeding and how to get more into her as I`ve only ever BF but I`m sure she`s fine and is doing everything her way in regards to weight.

    Thanks Sammi - the girls on BB have been fantastic.

    Kat - Wow at Lucas`s first trip to the zoo.

    DD - Sounds like it`s all go at your house.

    Adrian is doing well, he`s sleeping between 5 - 6 hours at night now, then has another sleep of approx 4 hours, by then it`s about 6/7am that`s good in one way but in another I think AF is arriving not happy Jan, why can some women go months without AF yet here I fully breastfeed my babies and still get it within 2 months.

    Hope your all well.

    Take Care
