DJ is finally settling, his wind is starting to clear. Bought some Gripe Water yesterday, mum used it on me when I was a baby and it worked for her, so I am giving it a go. He is getting rid of alot of gas and his tummy doesn't seem to be as upset - what a relief. I might actually have a good day with him today also bought some fenugeek tabs and rescue remedy as well, have noticed if I start to take the motilium because my milk supply is low, I end up with thrush - the motilium is the culprit.

SJ - get some Gripe Water, I bought some yesterday for DJ and it is really settling down his wind. He is farting heaps haha and burping himself alot as well. His tummy doesn't seem as upset as it was from the wind.... He is sleeping alot longer as well, and not so unsettled. My mum used Gripe Water on me when I was a bub so I thought I would give it a go. Smells terrible and DJ screws up his face when we give it to him so now giving it to him with warm water so it is a bit diluted. I will actually be able to catch-up on some sleep today with DJ being so settled. Haven't used Infacol on DJ but Prama says she has had some good results. And on the community nurse thing, it is very frustrating, finally getting my first visit on Wednesday!!! DJ will just be 3 weeks 6 days old by then. Unbelieveable though. I have so many questions. Ooooooh on the surprise, be sure to let us know I love surprises.

Jade - nice one on getting your hair done, you must feel like a new woman especially with the new clothes to go with it Don't worry about the sizing, we will all get back to our pre-pregnancy shape eventually. My hubby likes feeling the softness of my belly but I hate it, it is all spoungey Can't wait until I get my tummy back.

KyeG - welcome to the group. I also have to use nipple shields with my bub. My nipples go inverted and he can't latch on. I hate having to use the shields but I have to. Sometimes I don't have to and he latches on, but not everytime.

Jo - wow that is a great weight gain, she is growing so well. Good to hear you found out she had reflux so you know what is wrong and can fix it. Did she vomit after every feed? DJ is getting sick after a few feeds, but I think it is because he was being greedy and having too much. I might ask the community nurse about it next week when she finally comes to see me.

Hayley - welcome to the group. Do you find the bear hug sling easy to use? I was considering getting one.

Have a great day girls xxxx
