HI everyone,
I had my 2nd beautiful baby Alistair Leslie on 29 June 2008 at 5.45 pm after a 3.5 hr labour but i also had 48 hours of gels and one week of pre labour at home. (3.5hrs was the official number on d/c form) I was i thought 38wks but it turns out i was 37 wks , so Alli was just on term/preterm margin. Apgar score 9 & 9 he had an o/n stay in the SCN then in with me.
I was discharged home 48 hrs post a vaginal birth. I used gas and peth but i sooo wanted an epi but i didnt get one to my disgust at that presant time lol But l was pleasantly proud of 'me' pushing my bub out! ( My 1st bub : induced and dripped epi'd and vaccuum assisted and it was a 13 hour labour.... but Thomas James arrived on JUly 5 2000.)
Alistair is 10 weeks 4 days old and had his first vaccine shots on Tues the poor little man did like them and was so out of sorts following for a good nearly day and a half. Living on panadol snuggling?sleeping with me and sipping milk all day and night.
Im bottle feeding as i dont 'do' BF although i did try but i havent the patience and i feel like a cow and plus i dont produce enough for what he needs.
My Alli was 2.9 kg born and now he is 6kg he eats and sleeps
Cheers Ainsley
