Tanya - it can be so tough knowing what you should be doing. hopefully things will settle down once your milk is fully in.
Nickers - don't be hard on yourself, looking after someone 24hrs a day is exhausting and we all need our breaks, even if it is just hanging out the washing. When you see housework piling up it can be very stressful. Wow what a big sleep Nixon had, I can't wait. We get about 3 hours sleep in between feeds.
IK - I too feel pressure about housework, but physically can't do it all, bf'ing is exhausting.
Bathsheba - I hope you had a good night sleep last night, I couldn't imagine heading off for the city, enjoy your day.
Jess - I agree you belong with us.
I have now joined the separated tummy muscle club. How are others coping with this and are you doing your exercises? I wonder how long it takes to recover.
