Yeah I am just looking up to see what the fine is now - not happy - Wayne's boss says he isnt going to pay it! I wish we could just tell him to stick his job but the money is too good.
Catherine - Danny goes away for 5 days at a time?? Wow - difficult for you but sounds like you have an ok bub. It feels like Wayne is gone for 5 days (sometimes 7) at a time. He starts work at 7 and sometimes doesnt get home until around 730-8 at night and there are some times where its not until 11. So I dont ask him to do any feeds (although he volunteered to do one this morning ) So it does kinda feel like (sometimes) that I am doing it on my own. He is even at work today - dont know when he will be home!
Sorry about the BF issues - I know how you feel. With all the stress of staying at my MIL, attachment issues and the Nazi midwife I gave it up after a week. Really wish I hadnt - was one thing I wanted to do.
I am just letting her do the crying thing in her cot right now. Carried her around in the carrier for half an hour and she fell asleep. She is fed, clean and dry and has had cuddles. She is not screaming (yet) so am letting her go for 5 mins and maybe she will put herself to sleep (in fact I can hear the cries getting shorter and shorter and less intense!) Lets see how we go!
Hope everyone has a great day. Will check back in later.
