Hey Laura and baby blip!
Whoo we have our own little group.
I am going pretty good at the moment. Levi will be 2 weeks old tommorow- feels like he has always been here!
Last couple of days he has been cluster feeding heaps all afternoon- trying to build my milk up for me. thank goodness its the weekend and DH was home to help out- also we have had heaps of visitors this weekend so everything all over the place. The rest of the day and nite he was feeding 3-4 hourly, but every 10-15 mins for the past 3 hours- you feel like a cow!
How are you doing laura?? I guess you are still in hossy. Hossy was hard and Levi was so unsettled and didnt sleep overnite whilst i was there- but as soon as i got home he slept at nite- no more than 4 hours at a time, but better than none!
It is like an adventure trying to learn all the things that make my bub happy, calm, content, upset and everything in between. Its the challenging part and you no sooner work them out and then they go and change on you!
How are you going Baby Blip- Its hard when your bub is in special care and you have to leave him. My twin were in special care/NICU for 33 days. It was so tough. Feel free to vent here !!
take care girls and look forward to chatting more!
let the adventures begin!
Darren has it in his head that it's a really swell idea to have his 'witching' hour from 12:30am-1:30/2am! but we're getting there. he ended back in hospital monday night becuase he wasnt settleing at all, so we race down to A&E and got him checked out and he was admited again - he has oral thrush that flared up with the medication the home dom. nurse gave him (stupid cherry flavored stuff...FOR A NEW BORN?!?!?!) plus really bad wind aaand jusr cranky about the whole thing. so i spent ANOTHER night in the hosptial with him (one of the nurses in the pediactric ward asked me "why are you back, i know i can get his wind up...but this is extream" so now when we go out we have to make sure we have 1) infants friend - for the wind 2) nose spary (sayleen stuff) for his snuffles and 3) oral thrush stuff dactarin. plus all the other stuff we need for babies! plus with the oral thrush im expressing so we go any where for a long time i need to take my pump other wise i end up with hawt wet patches!
any one else useing cloth here? we are *trying* and its working (thus far...)
My name is Selina and I had my beautiful baby boy Oliver on 13th February - he's a week old today! He's the first bub for DH and I. He's a wonderful bub with lots and lots of dark hair!
I already know a few of you - hope to get to know everyone better.
Blip: I hope Darren is doing okay. Must be such a pain to be in and out of hossy like that.
