Missy: Melissa sounds like a gem!! I hope I have that sort of relationship with Ashlea!

Mez: HOw are you going? We have been pretty good. Sorry to hear you had some rough nights, great to hear the swaddling worked, I started wrapping Ash again and its working wonders

Tasia: Hows everything going? DH being nice to you now??

Tenny: It was a boring day but I did get most of the washing done haha Hope Hayden's cold is getting better! Hayden's outfit is GORGEOUS!! I lived on ebay when I had Jayden, I haven't even thought to look for clothes for Ashlea!

Jess: I'm a huge believer in sleeping when the baby is sleeping, but it is harder to do when there's a 2yo involved haha get as much rest as you can!! Ashlea feeds between 3-4 hourly then sometimes sleeps through so she'll go maybe 6hrs

Oh Kell hun!!! I know how you feel, Jayden is sick ATM too (nothing like Jesse though). Just take a deep breath and know that it won't be like that forever. We were told (I think in antenatal class) that no baby has died from crying, so let Keira cry a bit if Jesse needs you. We of course are here for you as well, I know I have had a few days where I just don't think I'm cut out to have 2 kids...I think every mother goes through that at some stage, whether they are willing to admit it or not. Big to you, I hope things look up soon.

Zee: I sympathise with you RE toddlers being naughty! Jayden is playing up heaps lately... not sure if its an age thing or an attention thing....I just keep telling myself it won't be like this forever haha

Feeding is going great again although I didn't feed Ashlea from 8.30pm last night until 6am this morning (gave her EBM at 2am) and I was way too full and she couldn't attach, then she wouldn't after I expressed a bit so I expressed the whole lot and gave her a bottle but I had express 220ml in total from both sides!! She has fed fine all day, oh she made me bleed this morning too so I was so scared all day to put her on that side!
Is anyone still bleeding (downstairs)?? Sorry if TMI but mine had almost stopped after 2 weeks but then came back and I still have it. I know they say up to 6wks and I bled for 6 wks with Jayden but I am so over it!
We were out all day today, I never plan to but it always happens. I took Ashlea up to Chris' work to show everyone....he almost seemed a bit proud when he was showing everyone (I was holding her though). He was even making gooey faces at her yesterday which I thought was cute. I hope this means he is coming round and going to start to take an interest in her. I yelled at him the other day and told him to "step up at being a parent" otherwise you won't have a family....although he didn't respond at the time maybe he had a think about it???

Well my little princess is fast asleep on me so I better put her to bed and I think I will have some custard and then go to bed myself.....Tomorrow we have another LC appt, I am actually excited this time as Ashlea has only had 3 bottles since last Fri so any weight gain will be me feeding her. Oh and I uploaded Ashlea's 1mth old (today) pic on FB
