Just a quick post from me, I am sooooo tired.... Finally got rid of my stomach cramps which turned out to be from the runs big time, didn't think I was ever going to get off that toilet.... arghhhhh the joys. I am bleeding way more now as well..... We went to a friends place for a bbq this afternoon which was nice, they had a baby 2 days before us, a little girl sooooo cute. DJ slept the whole time, he really loves car rides, totally settles him down. We are sooooo taking him out in the car next time he is unsettledI also used their bathroom scales when I was there and I have already lost 11kg in weight!!!! I only need to lose 9kg to get back down to my original pre-pregnancy weight. I had put on alot of weight in the pregnancy but figured it was just alot of baby and caused by the gestational diabetes etc..... So, seeing that figure definitely put a smile on my face

SJ re: pimply rash, DJ has that as well, across his nose and cheeks and apparently that is normal. I think you are right re: uterus contracting, my sides get sore, like I have done an ab workout.
Prama - just remember you are a great mum especially since you are always considering different ways of doign things. Re: pram - yeah we use it frequently, mind you when grocery shopping we use the baby bjorn carrier, just easier since we have the trolley. re: milk flow: I took that motilium tablets for 1.5 days and then my milk came through, it definitely helped to boost the milk flow for me.
Teachmum - that was very inconsiderate for sure... We had visitors up from Wollongong at 9am this morning and they didn't leave until 1pm!!!!! So, of course we had to feed them, so hubby went up to Red Rooster..... I wasn't happy because we had to get a bbq this afternoon, which meant I only got a 30 min sleep....
Bron - that is soooo good to hear the GD all goneYipeee and such a relief.... Re: c-section - i was told no driving, lifting heavy things or exercise until 6 weeks arghhhh it is very frustrating and I keep forgetting... The healing of my scar is going pretty well though. Get twinges but not too bad, have only been on panadol which I haven't had to have too much of.....
Danni - happy birthdayand definitely introduce the bottle it is a godsend so you can sleep while DH feeds

Trina - nice one on the horse ride, I would love to go horseridingand on the smiling poo thing, DJ does that too, you think awwww how sweet I am getting a smile already but no no, it is just a poo haha
Well, that is enough from me, I really need to get some sleep before DJ wakes up for his next feed.....Due at approx 1:30-2:00am haha Told hubby I will do early morning feeds tonight, he has been sooo good to me in doing early morning feeds and I am going out for the day tomorrow with my mum so want to make sure he is well restedkehehee
