Hi ladies,

hope you are all doing well and getting some sort of routine going!

Jordan his the 5 week mark tomorrow, haven't had him weighed since he was 2 weeks but he is definitely growing well! We seemed to have finally gotten somewhere with the feeds, we were stuck on 2 hourly day and night for the first 3 weeks, now he has just started going to bed at either 8 or 10, then sleeping till either 1 or 3, then wakes at 5. Big improvement for us! At 5am he is SO awake and wants to play so we tend to sit in bed with him for an hour or two, then I give him a quick feed again and he usually sleeps till 10. Is awake a lot more in the day now too. We are going so much better now getting that extra sleep.

He still gets a lot of wind but has started to burp a bit better.

I too have been BF in public since early on. I have done it in waiting room at chiro, at the royal easter show, food court, wherever. We are off the nipple shield and he latches on really well so I have a lot more confidence with BF now and I don't cover up with a wrap, but always have one ready to offer any bystander who doesn't want to see my baby eat :-)

We are using MCNs - baby beehinds mostly, I love them they are going really well, no leaking, easy to wash etc. Saving so much money by not buying disposables!

How is everyone feeling physcially? Remember I am a personal trainer so if anyone wants any tips let me know!
