Hi Guys,

I hope everyone is well. I am not caught up with all the goss and I as I type this it looks as though I dont have long to go til I am needed elsewhere lol.

We had a bbq on Saturday to celebrate Kobi's birth. It was a big night. We were up til 2am so needless to say I had to have a huge nap the next day.
At least everyone has met her now so it saves the dribs and drabs visits of ppl wanting to see her for the first time.

I cannot believe Tyra starts school on Wednesday! I am near tears just thinking about it. I can hardly believe we have come to that stage in her life already. At least when she goes I might have more time to do a few things around here. I am looking forward to it for her sake because she is so excited but I am so sad thinking my baby is off to school.

Kobi is doing well. She is such a good sleeper but reserves all her good sleeps for the day time and is not so good at night
I guess I have to give her more time to get used to being on the outside hehe. I spose she isnt too bad but I am hoping to get her into a better routine soon.

Is everyone else already in a routine with their bubs? Is everyone here demand feeding or feeding at certain times?

Slowly getting used to having a newborn in the house again. It seems all a bit surreal at the moment still. I love saying "My girls", or "My kids".

Laura - I think the counselling sounds like a good idea. Something I really should have done I think in regards to my birth with Tyra. Would have been beneficial. I hope it makes you feel better though it sounds as though you are doing better daily anyway.
Re the tummy thing, mine seems to be going down pretty fast too. I seem to be doing much better this time as opposed to when I had Tyra. I am in pretty much in all of my normal clothes bar a couple of pairs of pants. B/f helps get things moving quicker too so that bodes well for us hehe.

Misty - Congrats to DH on the job and on teh news of the big move. Should be great for you!!

Sal - Just about to go read your birth story. Good to see you here.

Yael - Good to see you as well. Have you posted a full birth story yet? Are you going to? Posterior sucks hey! The only thing about my labour I wish would have been different was Kobi's possie becuase in the end no matter how hard I tried I probably would have had to have vacuum regardless. Though even with that it was a great birth. Better than forceps and c/s. Glad you had Kelly with you. It is great that you had the extra support.

Ok better go. DH has just come home early from footy training and is really sick with a migraine, Tyra is making a mess and thankfully Kobi is still asleep but I dont know how much longer that will last.

Have a great night
