Hi all!
Havent posted in a few days, have been tired and stressed and teary. Had my first bout of feeling like nothing but a big boob, with a restless, clingy and hungry baby. Had forgotton who I was. Have been taking some time out away from Bubs each day and feeling a little better.
Saw child health nurse for our first appt yesterday. Adleine has put on 650g since birth! What a porker!
She originally lost more than her 10% at dc, and we were supposed to weigh her twice in the first week, but never got around to it- she looked so healthy, was eating, weeing and pooping well, and the family all thought she was putting on weight. But it was still a surprise for that much weight!
At least I can feel certain that she is getting enough BB milk, I think I must be incredibly lucky, reading about everyones BFing dramas. I must be one of the few who are exclsively BFing. I do admire evrone who is persevering or figuring out their feeding regimes, or happily formula feeding (whatever works!)
At least I can be reassured that my frequent feeds are going in the right place!
