Hi ladies,

well, my normal midwife came back from holidays yesterday and she's not happy with Amy's weight gain so I am officially a cow being milked now every 3 hourly feed. Amy just isn't sucking for long enough to get enough milk and so my milk started to decrease. So now I have to work on getting my supply up. Had to go to the hosp to see the lactation consultant today. Am on Maxolon every 8 hours and need to feed 3 hourly. Haven't been getting much milk expressed but it is increasing so we'll see. Have another weighing on Sunday to see how she's going. If the Maxolon doesn't work, I can go to a naturopath or formula it is. So wish me luck with the bo'obies. I'm not too worried about going on formula at all. It will just be so nice to not have to worry about the feeding and start enjoying my baby and all the other things that come along with being a mum. Prob won't be on here much over the next few days cos I need to sleep before I totally lose it. My problems are nothing compared to what Maz and little Mateauz is going through. My thoughts are with you all Maz xxx Luv Nik and Amy xxx
