Morning all

Well my ABs have finished, my epi is feeling better and we've had a few good days with Isabel. She's been more settled, have been out and about during the day and she sleeps in the pram and car and doesn't scream all day.

Here's hoping it continues...

She is still punching out one four hour sleep at night and then will be up and down around that. Its not too bad I think... but DH gets really frustrated with her when she's unsettled. This morning she fed at about 5.30am and has been pretty much awake since then. We can't put her down as she cries, so we try to settle her, she'll calm down but we can't put her down again. Sigh!

I've been told by the MCHN not to try the wind drops just yet, but to give it more time.

Shell, I know what you mean about feeling a bit blue. Its tough isn't it, not being able to do more?

Holly, well done for persisting with the feeding. It does sound like most of us in here are breast feeding. Also, the ABA says that you cannot overfeed a breast fed baby. Formula, yes, but b/f no. Someone also told me not to worry about how much goes in, but to worry about how much comes out.

SJ, hello!! Welcome! Sounds like your labour was pretty full on. Hope you are recovering ok. Yes, it does get better!

Hi to everyone else!
