Morning - we have our 6 weeks check today - already!! With DS1 I bled until this point, then with DD for two weeks then lightly spotting on and off for another 3 - and this time the same, pretty much nothing now, just back to a little bit more than normal. YAY! Seems to have gotten less time for each baby??

We are doing well, Zander feeding ok (weight check will tell today hoping for 5kg) - and day sleeping a bit all over the place with school runs and shopping and general stuff but night sleep he usually goes down with the other kids around 7 - 8pm - then wakes twice overnight. However, I don't mind the feeding overnight, and lately he has been settling well afterwards so I had a total of 6 hours last night and feel rejuvenated - and that is still with DH away in Townsville until tonight so I feel very capable again!

Amanda - you deserve Julian to be sleeping well for you overnight with 4 other kids in house - you are amazing - I feel like I am struggling enough with 3 at times - but do pull through They are all so precious ...

Kuraiza - we evicted Zander out of our room after all the visitors left cos he was so noisy! Grunting, groaning, wind after the night feeds etc - he has been in his own room for 2 weeks and I think we are both sleeping better cos I am not disrupting him thinking he is waking or cold or something My plan was for him to be in our room for a couple of months like Giselle, but nope, can't sleep through his noise!

Itsme - the pulling off to me sounds like either Maya is getting fussy about your let-down (is it really strong and drowns her?) - or like Zander - he does the pull off/on thing when he is trying to get wind out or has a tummy pain - sometimes they like to suck to help move it through their bowels, even if they are burping fine - they still get wind in their bowels. Hang in there hun, around 6 weeks and on their bodies mature and they start to be able to push it through a bit easier - here's hoping!

Belfie - see I told you I had already gatecrashed into this thread with all the due girls Seemed very lonely in the other one and of course I love talking to you feels strange that there was only 3 of us though hey!

PP - Christmas - when is that? LOL I am usually soooooo organised, better do something about that soon .... I have DD's pressies on lay-by but DS1 fads change so we were waiting to see closer to the day - which would be about now ..... EEK!
Gotta run .
