morning girls, has anyone noticed their little ones dried up cord bit is starting to fall off or bleed a little. Poor JD's stump started bleeding a little the other day just a bit on his singlet. Its not swollen or pussy or smelly just looks like its going to fall off soon. I guess it happens soon doesn't it?

It was my night shift last night. He is usually a little cranky come 5-7ish but last night he was great so I had a small glass of wine with dinner and a warm bath while he slept. DH did the 11ish feed and I woke to do the 3.30 feed (by then I assumed my breast milk would be free from the wine as it was 9 hours ago that I had it) he took the boob and gutzed down for 20 minutes before falling completely asleep. I thought yeah this is good 20 min and were done. But dumb me put him in his cot and put his dummy in his mouth and 30 minutes later he was complaining cause it fell out and was cranky and wouldn't settle! So I heated up a bit of formula and he drank 50 ml before crashing again. So by this time it was just after 4am. I put him back to sleep WITHOUT his dummy and he didn't wake till about 8.30 am. He had a wet nappy otherwise I would assume he would have slept longer as he loves his sleep ins in the morning. Now a quick 20 minute bob feed while laying in bed with me he is now sound asleep in his pram (bassinett) and probably will be till lunch time or a wet nappy wakes him up. I think we are doing ok. Certainly happy that he gets more than 2-3 hours between feeds though!

Anyway, might go have my shower and clean myself up a bit I look a fright I am sure! Also got to pump the right boob before it explodes everywhere!
