Ooh, am I the first to post in here? New thread - yay!
Sorry everyone that I've been away lately - things at home are interesting, to say the least. We've desperately been trying everything to work through Mia's crying episodes at the moment.
She seems unsettled most of the time she's awake. She doesn't sleep well, and usually only sleeps for one sleep cycle and then cries when she wakes. Then she feeds, but because she hasn't slept well, doesn't stay awake for long and doesn't feed well. Then she sleeps but presumably wakes up again shortly b/c of hunger and the cycle starts over again! We're trying to work through it as best we can (also bought the Save our Sleep book to try and help out as well as we needed some settling techniques) and things are starting to improve so hopefully we're on the right track.
I'm still having milk supply issues. I even tried expressing before feeding and was only getting 20ml per boob so there is something wrong which I'm devastated over. I got a script at the Drs yesterday for motilium so I'm going to give that a go. Have tried absolutely everything else, but nothing seems to be working. We have our MCHN appointment tomorrow for her 4 week checkup so we will see how her weight is going and hopefully it's just a matter of me not being able to express rather than her not getting what she needs. Fingers crossed!!
Damn, there she goes again - sorry for no personals. Will try and do some later
