Hi all, sorry I've been MIA but I'm sure you understand

Jeff and I spent 5 lovely days hiding in a private room in the hospital with almost no visitors. Something you can only do with the first child so we took full advantage. It was really lovely.

Things are going really well here now we're home too. Katie is breastfeeding well, she sleeps quite a lot most nights, and only screams for a couple of hours each evening, well before midnight (and one night not at all and last night only for about half an hour). Unfortunately daddy usually gets that shift so that I can get a nap in before the potential all-nighter, and daddy can't stand the screaming, I think it's something to do with the way men's ears work, it just pierces through his head he says...but he does it anyway.

I'm not getting very organised yet, I just don't seem to be able to slot stuff in between feeds, I'm not very good at being reactive, I'm used to being able to plan my time. Thank goodness my mum is here, she's getting me into a routine and reminds me to got bed for a nap during the day as well.

I'm afraid that there's no chance that I'll catch up with what's been happening with everyone over the last 9 days, so I hope that everyone is enjoying their darling little ones...even though my quick skim showed that some of you have had some bother...I guess we'll all get used to that...I'm dreading the first fever I must say.

At some stage I'll get my birth story up, but for anyone who wants a peak there's a photo of Katie in my gallery.

Take care all, I just wanted to let you all know that I'm still here and thinking of you all.
