Hi girls, just checking in. Sorry no time for personals it's not long til the next feed is due. I've been kept very busy (and almost out of my mind at times) with feeding regularly (2-3 hourly during the day and 4 hourly at night) and then expressing 5 times a day for 30 mins (after feeds). Most of his feeds take around an hour with changing and burping etc so I usually only get about 20 mins after I've re-sterilised the hand pump to shower, or eat (occasionally both!). I've been topping him up with the EBM. I think he is sucking better the past day or so (keeping at it longer and not giving up so early) and it seems like I have more milk.

I have been reading most posts I think sorry - just never get enough time to reply cause I'm also reading in the breast feeding section too.

Yesterday must have been the day for not sleeping. Jacob was awake from 5pm to 11pm and we had a few nightmare feeds where he wouldn't latch or suck just screamed. Having a better day today but getting so sick of expressing. I've only left the house once since Wednesday

Hope you're all doing well.
