My daughter Sascha was born on the 11th but i want to stay in my pregnancy group (she was due the 16th). Will wait for them to join...

Having some breastfeeding issues trying hard to persevere, baby is a good sleeper so far. Trying to keep my 2yr old from loving her to much with big hugs and occasional knocks to the head!

All is going good with Noah, he is a fantastic feeder & sleeping, well... he sleeps well through the day LOL.

Are you taking anything to help your supply Mo? I hope cookie has a great weigh in for you tomorrow.

No not yet, my LC said just to pump & feed every 3hrs. Been doing that & my milk started coming through yesterday & today it's really come through so i can express upto 50ml now.
Dakota gained 100 grams at her weigh which is great news, but i'm thinking the weight gain is from comp formula feeds i had to give her.
So i guess i'll find out now she wont need formula anymore.

Trinity - glad to hear she has put on 100grams - my dd has to also have an extra weigh in due to low weight gain. I have terribly cracked and bleeding nipples, and have also got nipple thrush which is extremely painful. I have been dreading feeds and also had to comp formula. Things are slowly getting better, so much for the 2nd on being easier to bf!

Storm - my dd loves having a wakeful period at 5am every morn!

PM-I really feel for you, hope they heal up quickly for you. I can understand dreading feeding time.

Things are going much better here feeding wise, Kodi is pooing & weeing regularly now, She's also waking herself up for feeds & when she is awake she's nice & settled. I've been told by my LC that these are all really good signs she's getting plenty of milk. So that makes me much happier.

Storm hope you & Noah are well. Noah is such a Cutie love the FB pics.
