Neeny- Great to see you are getting back into the swing of things. I dont think that ANYTHING can prepare new parents for what having a newborn in the house is like.
Bath- Congrats on your first significant outing- we are really struggling to get out the door for even five minutes at the moment, but I am sure things will get better- she is just over a week old.
Enigma- I certainley agree that I am not missing some of the pregnancy symptoms, however it is taking a little bit of adjusting to get used to not being pregnant anymore- I guess I miss having my bubba with me 24/7 and knowing that inside at least she is pretty safe.
Well as for us I am feeling pretty exhausted today- we are really stuggling we feeds during the day. Tori woke up this morning and 9:30 and I fed her gave her to DH and had a shower, then she fed off and on from 11-2:30. It is so exhausting, in the end I gave her a bottle of formula to top her up because I just couldnt keep up with how hungry she was. the MCHN is coming on Tues so hopefully she can give me some tips of what to do, because after nearly 4 hours of feeding in a row I was over it. This seems to have happened every day since Thursday and I am not sure whats going on, whether my milk just cant catch up from over night- or whether its because I dont eat & drink too much during the night feeds I am not sure. But if it continues she will have to keep having a top up formula bottle in the day.
Anyway whinge over, she has been asleep for 3.5 hours now, and i have managed to get a nap and have another shower. DH has cooked a roast for dinner so hopefully after a bad day we will have a good night!
