Ren: I have also been having the tailbone pain when sitting and when getting up and it is driving me crazy! I googled childbirth+tailbone and the first website gave me some good info on what we are going through and then there is a report under the information from someone who has some answers -under erin. It sounds like it may have some thing to do with our pelvic floor which i suspected as if I try to move those muscles it changes the pain. I also have a contact for a physio who specialises in this area and I am hoping she can help me with some exercises and/or refer me to someone. Have a read but I think it might be a good idea to see a physio if does not get better. It has been three weeks for me and it is not making any improvement and sometimes feels worse.

I am going pretty well with Emily but getting sick of being covered in milk and smelling like milk. The nipple sheild makes it worse and milk pools in it and then either spills out when she comes off or she knocks it off and I get milk everywhere. It is very frustrating. Sleeping is ok nights are the best but she is daily having times where she won't sleep between feeds and just wants to cry. We are experimenting with different ways to settle her. She is crying right now.. and I am trying to let her settle. Also bought a dummy today. I am not that keen on the idea but thought it is worth having some in the house but just tried it and she spat it out..not at all interested.

Gotta go...finding it hard to hear her cry. Hope you are all doing well
