Been MIA in here a bit lately. Being a mum of 2 under 2 is hard work!!! I must admit i am quite enjoying it though. Definetely makes the days go quicker!
Well things are going pretty well here. Colby is doing really well. We kinda have a night routine now. She feeds on and off up until around 8.30-9pm and then sleep through till 4.00am. We then have a feed and back off to sleep till around 8.30am. We do have the occasional night where Colby wont settle till around 11.00pm though! Those nights are killers! We had one of them lastnight!!
Colby is starting to smile heaps now too. It takes her a while to work it out but if you just sit there and talk to her she will give you one. She looks really different when she does smile. She is really starting to get a lot of control over her neck now. She can hold her head up on her own when you put her over your shoulder. Last night my mum had her laying on a pillow on her tummy and she was lifting her head and chest up looking around. Colby was "cooing" to mum aswell! I can never get her to do it but my mum can. She could do it with Briley too!
Feeding is going not too bad. She is still feeding really well but vomits a lot of it back up. We went to the footy the other night and i had expressed a heap for the night but brought a tin of formula for back up just incase. Mum gave her some BM but she vomited that up so mum tried her on the formula and she drank the lot without spewing and went to sleep straight away. Ofcourse this gave me a bit of a complex and i thought that maybe she could'nt tolerate my milk. I am going to speak to the Dr about it at our 6 week check-up. I thought maybe it was reflux but i thought reflux was like power chucking though. Maybe not???
If need be i will put her on formula. I don't have a problem with it at all. Briley had to be switched to formula at 4 weeks cause she would'nt latch properly and therefore not getting what she needed. She is perfectly healthy. BUT....i really wanted to BF for as long as i could this time. I can tell that she is growing fine as i notice she feels little bit heavier everyday!
Well i don't think there is much else to report. I am doing well. Starting to get a few pains back though. I was having some issues before i fell pregnant with Briley. Dr's thought maybe PCOS. Was booked in for laparoscopy and hystercoscopy but fell pregnant both times!! Must mention that to the Dr at the 6 weeks check-up too!
Sorry for the lack of personals! I am so far behind on them i can't catch up!! I will just have to pop in everyday to keep up with you guys!
