Dan - are you coming to Melbourne? When? I'm so sorry to hear about Olivia's heart murmur. When was she checked out? By your OB or did you have a 6 week MCHN appointment?
Sarah - good luck at your appointment and have fun at Mothers Group! How long are you in Melbourne for? Are we all organising something for July still?
Tan - OMG, you just reminded me about my pashmina I've had sitting in the top of my cupboard for ages! I never thought to use that to cover up in public when BFing (I'm super self-conscious and have always taken EBM with me instead). As for boredom, I'm still too tired to get bored - I'm home all the time but still trying to get Mia settled. She still cracks the sh*ts all the time we can't go out for long before she's off on a tantrum again, poor thing
Kelly - SO glad to hear the nipples are healing!! yay!! And that combined with better sleeping means you must be feeling 200% better, so happy for you!
Danni - how did the photography session go, hon?? Can't WAIT to see the photies!!!! I haven't forgotten about you, I promise - I'm still having issued with Mia at home and don't know if I'm coming or going lately, but I'd love to have a big group catch up still - maybe we can organise something in advance so we can all plan way ahead??
Sez - I'm so sorry to hear about the weight issue with Nicholas. I am currently on Motilium as I have had BFing issues since day 1 and it has really helped to increase my supply. Before that, my MCHN (also a LC) was getting me to take Fenugreek like there was no tomorrow, as well as drinking 3 glasses of sustogen a day as well. Maybe that may also help?
Rae - You sound like you're doing and coping wonderfully which is absolutely fantastic. I don't know how you do it with two, but you're obviously taking it all in your stride and doing a wonderful job!!
Lis - How great to hear that Elena is starting to get herself into her own routine! Good idea about the food diary - Mia is SUPER windy all the time and we try Infants Friend with her and always try to burp her every 3 mins while feeding, but she still gets really windy. Thanks!
Had my 6 week check up at my OB yesterday. Everything is fine downstairs (yay...god bless my epi-no!) and no other problems. Also had a pap smear done at the same time to get that out of the way as well - things must still be very stretchy down there though as I didn't feel a thing!! hahaaaaa Maybe that was a good thing
Did everyone also have a 6 week appointment for bubs or only for them? My next MCHN appointment isn't until 8 weeks (last one was at 4 weeks) - is this normal?
