Hi all! I have been MIA also! It's been so long since I have been online that I can't even remember what I wrote in my last post! I do remember rabbitting on about my PEAD visit and since than alot has happened. I ended up with a terrible case of mastitis (sp?) not sure if it was a result of all the travelling we had been doing and not being able to express at regular intervals throughout the day but by the time night fell my b**bs would be ready to explode and pumping was painful! I was also waking up to pump twice a night to try and relieve the soreness while Coop slept through to 7am.. finally got the better of me this past Monday morning as I sat in the bottom of the shower crying thinking it shouldn't be this stressful so now I have a FF bubby who is just as content as he was whilst being BF - only have to deal with a crushed mummy ego! He put on 900g in a week and half as a result of monitoring (sp?) his EBM intake considering he had barely bout on 300g in the six weeks prior we were stoked! But a bubby needs a happy mummy and painful pumping was creating the total opposite! So anywho all is good now in our household! Coop is weighing in at a 6.15kg and measuring 65cm he is gunna be a tall, tall boy! He is a such a cruisey, happy bub - feeds, plays, sleeps, feeds, plays, sleeps! Wakes up smiling and giggling! He is extremely strong - sitting up in his bumbo and scarily when he is having tummy time, he rolls onto his side and also is trying his best to become mobile... EEKK! I dont have nearly enough posts to add photos to the gallery but so want to share my pics, they are on facebook so if anyone wants a gander I am more than willing to share just request and I will add you!
