RoyaUK – Welcome to our group! And congratulations on the arrival of your daughter. We don't have a routine with Cooper. Basically when he wakes and cries I feed him! During the day I only let 4 hours go between feeds. So if he sleeps longer than I wake him (this doesn't happen that often). The midwives in the hospital told me to do this. He sleeps well at night though and can go up to 8 hours between feeds. DH baths Cooper every second night – just around a feed which is somewhere between 5-7 pm.

Fraser – Sounds like Charlie has a good little routine going there. Let's hope it continues!

boybump – Sorry to hear Ben is still constipated. I hope he improves soon! That's great he has been having such big sleeps!

Bubseykel – That's great you can see an improvement in your milk supply. Sometimes I wonder how mine is going. How can you really tell?! Cooper is wanting to feeding all the time at the moment and I'm not sure why.

Boisey – I use Amolin Sensitive Liquid for Cooper's things. But I have read that you do not need anything special for bub's clothes. You can just chuck them in with your washing.

kmh – Oh no about mastitis! Isn't it awful. I felt like I was going to die when I had it.
