Hi there mummies,

With dinner done and Olivia sleeping soundly I thought I'd pop on and catch up with everyone.

Tan - Hope you're enjoying your little girl and recovery quickly. Can't wait to see a photo.

Danni - You're little man is growing so quickly I can't believe it. It's fantastic to hear that your milk is back. Aren't our bodies amazing?

Sarah - Sorry to hear your nipples are sore. After each feed I rub hindmilk into each nipple and let them air dry. It seems to help me alot. Something to try maybe. It's a great idea to call the ABA. I visited a lacation consult last Thursday (the best thing I've done) and will visit her every week until I'm comfortable enough to stop. I agree with the others, don't worry so much about the housework. My house is a complete pigsty and we have to move this weekend .

Lee - Hope Baden's feeding is all sorted out for you and that you are loving being a mum. I love checking out your website for photos.

Kelly - Welcome home gorgeous. Hope you are recovering well and you and Lukas are settling in beautifully to home. Can't wait to see some photos.

Mel - You sound like you are absolutely loving being a mum and eveything is going well. I hope it is for you two. How's your gorgous girl? Here photo is gorgeous. She is so alert. Olivia sleeps so much that we are still waiting for the have those gorgeous awake periods.

Ashlee - Your little man seems to growing quickly to after this early arrival into the world. How long was he in the nursery for?

Alex - Well how amazing was it picking up your little man today? Can't wait to see some photos.

Olivia, Dave and I are going along really well. She sleeps for anything up to 5 hours at a time, wakes up for a feed and goes back to sleep. She has regained the weight she lost in the first few days. Our breast feeding is going good NOW. I have to use a nipple shield or she has no hope at all of attaching and express after each feed. It is working well.
This week is going to be chaos. We are moving on Saturday, haven't packed a single thing and our house is a pigsty. Tomorrow is the the start of us cleaning and packing. Dave heads back to work on Monday so after our feral weekend and not having his help I'm unsure how I'm going to go without him here to help. I think that is going to be a bigger shock to the system than coming home.

Well I'm off to have some ice-cream and head off to bed when CSI finishes.

Catch up soon,

Luv Dan.
