Had a great time at the Bris/GC catch-up ladies - was lovely to meet everyone and be freely allowed to talk baby stuff!! Weren't all the babies so well behaved? I thought for sure Mateo would give a good scream as that is all he seems to be doing for the past week! :-)

Viv - Mateo is not an easy baby, but to be honest I don't really care - I love him to death and am also a head-sniffer-addict!! I also kiss his beautiful curly lips all day!

Went to the nurse today - Mateo now weighs 4.78kg! Yey for him! Also told her he cries a lot and is really colicy so am off to the docs tomorrow to get a script for some baby Mylanta - I really hopes that helps as the poor little bugger is in so much discomfort with his belly. Went to a post-natal app at the hospital today and learnt some baby massage. This arvey Mateo woke with belly pain so I put him on the change table and massaged him - he farted heaps, pooped and then fell back to sleep while I was still massaging. So good to have a little trick up my sleeve other than the boob!!

Trish - Think you are doing a bloody marvellous job with your two boys - and let yourself have a cry, it's good for the soul. Can't help but chuckle over Joel's go to sleep and wake-up routine - can't be much fun when you're trying to sleep, but for an outsider - very cute and amusing!!

Nickers - Hope Tyron is ok with his jaundice.

Welcome Alz - I am with Boomba - pick up your bub if that's what you want to do. Mateo is also in a lot of discomfort and I never let him scream on his own - he screams on me and I comfort feed him also. Mind you in saying that, when I need a break I let him have a little cry on his own sometimes but not to the point where he is in a state. Don't let anyone tell you what to do - do what feels right for you and your baby.
