Puppies like the girls have said its quite normal for the cord to bleed a little. As long as you are cleaning it best you can, it will dry and fall off on its own. Ruby's is still on as her umbilical cord was quite thick but its just about off. The bath and wine sounds lovely! I plan on having the same next week. We have the girls going to stay with Granma for a few nights so we will just have Sammy and Ruby so thought it might be nice to chill and relax a bit.

LMS sorry you had such a crappy night. Hope today is better and you make it to your mums group.

Seena do you mean formula comps? I personally would be reluctant to introduce and have never done so just because it interferes with the milk supply demand that we are setting up for baby now, and I dont use formula ever, but thats just me. You have to do what is right for you.

Miss Ruby is loving the sling. I stripped her off just to her nappy last night and she just loved it outside looking at everything while i was pottering around in the garden and the kids were on the trampoline..,its so sweet. She also had her first bath with Sammy and Livvy which they thought was just lovely!
