Deancey- Glad to hear things at work went well even if Liam wasnt as settled as you hoped. I'm planning to go into work and ask for more time off... I just cant imagine having to go back any time soon... It took so long to get our second and i'd like to spend more time here with them if i can. The lady i job share with made out like they would let me go if i asked for extra time but i guess i wont know til i ask. i'm entitled to 12 months so its only an extention .We could use the money but in the end i'm spending that on child care anyway.
As for boobs feeling full mine are like that from overnight feeds... except the last 2 mornings... I;m worried my supply is dropping.... there just not filling up as much and now Tiahna is having both sides every feed. I have a GP appointment on thursday so i'm hoping i'll get something that will boost the supply... Dont want to stop just yet but also because Tiahna still refuses a bottle. I tried this morning as she slept all night and knew she'd be hungry... she just screamed the house down and kept pushing it away...
Abb- there was a thread about bubs fussing at the breast while AF is around... apparently it gives the milk a different taste due to hormones... I hadnt noticed with myself but we we had 4 days last week where Tiahna was waking 1-3 times a night but i found that she was sleeping at wrong time in the day and when i sorted that out she came good and now we've had 3 days of her sleeping through again.
Last night Tiahna was so grumpy... she had horrid wind and i just couldnt relieve it for her. I gave her donnalix at 4pm and by 5 still no relief (usually works quickly) i fed her again at 6 and she kept fussing and pushing the boob then grabbing it , screaming then sucking again.. it was aweful. I gave her some infants friend and that didnt work. So at 7.30 i gave her nappy free time (the house was so toasty warm) she kicked about and would not stop farting,.... it was grose. But at least it helped her get the wind out. She was finally in bed by 9 after a finaly feed. (DS went to bed at 7.45... YAY) And Tiahna and DS both slept til 7 .15 this morning.
