    Oh Sarah I am sorry to hear your scar isnt so good. I havent had any dramas with it so far apart from getting it caught to hipster undies and it bled slightly. Had it checked today and nurse said it was all fine.
    OOPs over Juliette puking just as you got to the shops typical I guess isnt it.
    I hope you got some sleep in this afternoon.

    hi ladies thought i would pop in and say hi. Abbie was born on the 17th of may. We had a few drama'a she did a poo and was stressed was almost on my way in for a c section cause she was so stressed and i felt the urge to push so they checked and i was ready to push. 7 min later she was born screaming which was great. Her apgar was 9 then 10. Sh e was 7 pound 7 oz 54cm long. She is such a great baby, had a few problems feeding at the begining but she is feeding great now!

    Good to hear that everyone is doing well. Sarah i hope that you are feeling better soon. hopfully get some more time to pop in.

    Ouchies on getting your undies caught on your wound, that's gotta hurt.

    Wow, well done on having bub naturally when you were so close to a c/s Nikki, sounds like it was a close call.

    Well I must say I think there is something wrong with my princess - she sleeps LOL!!! She slept last night 11pm - 6.20am when my boobs were going to explode so I woke her up! Zander wouldn't have done a stretch that long until he was at least a year old and now at three he's only just consistently sleeping all night long. Chalk & cheese these two I tell you.

    How are your other kids dealing with the new bubs in the house? Zander loves his baby sister & is very protective already, it's so cute. We had a friend over on Sunday & she asked if she could take Juliette home with her, Zander's response "No, not my baby sister. My mummy wants her." TOO CUTE!

    Wow sarah our bubs must be both great sleepers abbie slept from 8:30 last night till 5:30 this morning and yeah my bbs were killing me when i woke up.

    Cody is great with abbie he just adores her. Lachlan is doing so much better then i excpected, i thought tha he would be so jealous but he is not. We are just trying to give him just as much attention as abbie. I am so proud of both my boys.

    Abbie is my best baby yet all she does during the day is sleep. She has an awake time in the morning and afternnoon and then sleeps great at night time. She has the smalllest little cry its so cute!

    Not many people in this thread yet is it only three of us?
    Oh well i am sure we can talk each others ears off anyway lol!
    Have a great afternoon and hopefully and great nights sleep for all.

    Juliette is the same, sleeps all day! She feeds, falls asleep, then stays that way for 2-3 hours until her next feed. She has an awake time in the evening for aroun 30 minutes to an hour but that's it. I never had this with Zander, he had reflux & spent most of his time very very upset so this is all new to us!

    Hi ladies

    Well today we went out to DH work to show off the boys. everyone loved them ( who wouldnt though)
    Liam did so well he slept most of the time and then I fed them before we left so he fell asleep on the way home. Jordan was a little difficult to get to sleep this afternoon as he was overtired but he has settled now. He has had a few busy days so he has been quite good considering
    Liam sleeping is pretty good. I am having probs settling him after his 2am feed. It took about 2 hrs to get him back to sleep which is an improvement from the last 2 nights.

    Sarah Juliettes sleep sounds like a dream however I can imagine how ull you would have been after that long time. I hope she had a good drink when she woke up

    LMK congrats on the arrival of your princess. WOW I cant beleive you ended up with natural birth so close the your c section. How are your boys handling the arrival of their new sister?

    Not sure what happened last night but Juliette did not want to go to sleep, she just laid in her cot grunting & carrying on until 1.30am when I decided maybe she was actually hungry, which she was. Aaron kept asking if she was hungry & I got really cranky with him saying I can't read her mind

    She's been really good today, we did the preschool drop off, hospital for my wound to be checked, visited my wok to show her off & then back home.... So a big day & she slept through the lot. Everyone was in love with her at work & my mum (I work with her) was so proud to show off her granddaughter

    As for me, the wound still hasn't closed up so I've been put on even more antibiotics. Apparently because I'm aneamic the wound isn't healing as it should, so now I'm back on iron tablets. I swear I must rattle when I walk - antibiotics, iron, Elevit and thyroid meds. I suppose it's better than the last few weeks of pregnancy when I had dandelion root & EPO included in there!

    It is tough on the bigger ones isn't it Tracey. Zander has managed two day time sleeps since I got home eight days ago. I think having daddy home kind of throws out the routine as well as us getting used to having a baby in the house again.
