Shellsie - I've had issues with my milk supply too and are BF, expressing, feeding EBM & formula.... mainly formula at the moment because I can't quite express enough BM to feed DD. We are getting there..... I'm determined to be exclusively BFing again soon... very soon. So glad I've had the help of my Lactation Consultant. My R nipple is healing too as it was so badly cracked so haven't been feeding from this side until it heals. Waaaay too painful.... (I have a BF thread in the BF support section if you want to read about my problems LOL) and don't worry about settling him.... sometimes we put DD down once she's asleep and other times we put her down when she's dozing off but still awake.... we just do whatever works at the time!
I put Ava on her tummy this morning and she was happily lying there on her playmat on her tummy for 20mins!!! She would lift her head, hold it up for ages and then turn and look the other way then turn look the other way. It was soooo cute. Got some cute pics.
She's so very strong.
My DH has been so wonderful and supportive (always is!) the last few weeks I don't think I could have done it without him. Before he goes to work he gets my lunch for the day ready, makes me breakfast, folds the washing or puts washing on, gets my pump ready for me to express and makes sure i have a shower! He's been so awesome I am just so lucky to have his support.All i can focus on still is getting my BF'ing right and sleeping!!!
Anyway Ava is having a nap and I think will wake for a feed in about an hour (seeing as she threw up the last one!!!) so better go lie down while I can.
