Ok, so it's much later, but I'm back... Aadi had his immunisation yesterday. Blah. Not fun. Poor little guy screamed and screamed. I went with a friend whose baby was born the same day as Aadi, and her bub just shrieked once and that was it. Aadi was sleepy at first, as he was well overdue for a nap anyway, but wouldn't stay asleep for long. He woke up at one point absolutely wailing, and DP completely freaked out because I was in the bath. I just told DP to get him undressed and bring him in to me in the tub. I had plenty of lavender oil in the water already (I needed to calm down a bit too...) As soon as he got in the water he calmed down, and all was good. Took DP a few minutes to calm down though! Now he knows why I didn't want Aadi to have any needles at birth. Feeding in the bath is an unusual experience...
Anyway, he's fine now, except for a bit of the runs (TMI, but it's not like you notice with explosive breastfed newborn poos anyway!).
So after thinking I didn't have any problems with the freelance work I was doing, now my client wants this, that and everything else changed, and has totally disregarded my designs, so I've got loads of work to do and no time to do it. Blah again. I wish people would trust that I know how to do my job. I might be over-tired, but I still know more about design than they ever will. Ah, enough venting. It's futile!
Jess - I was reading in the breastfeeding support forum about mums drinking Aktavite to increase milk supply. Seems to work for some people. I certainly don't need to increase at the moment (still drowning in it...) but it might be worth a shot, and certainly taste better than Maxolon or whatever. Just a thought.
Right, back to the drawing board... ho hum.
