Hello Everyone,
Just a quick message - ready to go feed Ben and have a sleep myself.
He was born Tuesday morning - arrived 10.10am. Will post birth story later. Just wanted to touch base. Will catch up on posts later. Very happy. Ben wonderful: sleeps, feeding coming along, very content and settled. Glad to be home! Hope everyone is fine.
Cheers

well i thought i would come over to the other side.
Charlotte is doing well, starting to sleep alot better over night, actually got her to sleep in her bassinet last night for a little while, and then with me, so i could get some sleep. She is waking up twice over night about 2am and then about 6am, she feeds last about 10pm, and then in the morning she wont wake until about 10-11am. B/F is going really well, she is starting to feed more of one side at a time. She is tongue tied so i think i will have to get it cut, my poor little girl.
Tulip- i have given Charlotte a dummy, as she too was comfort feeding all the time, she now goes longer with out a feed, and sleeps better, Madison also has one and it hasn't affected her speach or anything, they are alright to use. I hope you heal soon, you poor thing, my stichers are starting to get itchy to i guess they are starting to heal.
Fee- i hope your mastitis clears up soon, i am also cheaking for any lumps. you are doing a good job with feeding.
Baizar- where abouts in melb do you live? your lucky with bailee sleeping so long.
kel- glad to see the danielle is putting on weight.
Dylan is feeding quite well has been solely on breatsmilk for a few days now I was topping him up with formula but actually gave him some formula tonight as I have an upset tummy and didn't want to pass it on. Not sure what it is probably overkill on the fibergel and prunes. Hav had lots of issues 'down there' since Dylan's birth but slowly getting over it. He is not great on the settling thing though but we are working on it. The latest thing I have been trying is wrapping him tightly, dummy in, lullaby playing and gently pushing the pram up and down which is where he is sleeping at the moment until we get him in the cot. He also like to come to bed with us and will sleep there or on my chest with my arm under his bottom with me gently patting him on the bottom. These all work so far and sort of.
Anyway hoping more ladies come over and join us soon.
hi all
well we are doing really well, Charlotte has been great, sleeping well over night, she has been waking up around 11:30pm then at 4am and then abour 8:30-9am, the only thing is that she likes to sleep with me during the night, and in the day she likes her swing (the best thing i have ever brought) i have been trying to get her to sleep in her bassenet during the night, she will settle for about an 1hr and then she likes to be with me, but if i get sleep it is great. The Health nurse came out today, just to weigh her, she has put on 300 grams on in a week and a half. B/F is going well. I am going to take Charlotte to the doctors on friday about her tounge tie.
Cassie- i love the pics of Dylan. Charlotte dosn't like to get wrapped, she pulls her arms out straight away and if she carn't she crakes it.
fee- glad to see that Cooper is putting on weight. Thats funny about him pooing on everything, all babies go through some sort of grumpy time during the day, charlottes is normally about 7:30 to 10:30pm where she wants to feed all the time, however she is sleeping through it at the moment.
Bubs- glad to see you are out and about walking, as soon as i get the toddler seat for my pram i am going to start walking, i have gone off all junk food at the moment, i ahve only had a little bit of chocolate but i can not eat too much before i feel sick, i have also only been drinking water, and i have lost 11 kilos, since having Charloote. B/F has been helping.
Becca- Welcome.
I have just found out my BIL girlfriend is 4-5 weeks pregnant, which is so cool
