Babyluv: visitors have eased off, which is nice. Bugger to BF issues. I found breastfeeding to be so hard with DS. It took me about 6 weeks to get it right and I did a clinic at the hospital to finally help sort it out. So far Ivy has been feeding really well, I just have some cracking nipple issues so it hurts me so much I want to jump through the roof, but she is doing well, so we'll get there, I know I just need to get through the pain should be a couple of weeks and I'll be ok.

Caixin: I'd get an LC out, or call the ABA, they are amazing and you don't have to be a member for them to help you out. They are available any time on the phone. Is it possible Claire has wind? That can make them really fussy? Keep trying and trying, breastfeeding is wonderful and there is so much help available out there.

Had some photos taken of Ivy today - have seen a preview of 2 of them and they are so gorgeous. I wish I could get a new set of nipples and a new back. My back is so sore from BFing and having no abdominal muscles left
