hi all

seems the little guy is pulling a ro stunt today and wants to be fed every hour and needs to be near me all the time. little naught hasn't slept more than 50 minutes since 5am. mummy is going to pieces in need of sleep.

luckily i have my sister over for a few days. she helps her friend out in their cafe a bit, so she's been making us full-on cafe meals. YAY no cooking and thinking for me!

saw louis yesterday. he suspects blocked ducts and because i don't feel carp yet, that it's not masty. he gave me a script anyway in case i suddenly end up with a temp in the night or any of the other nasty symptoms.

maybe james knows he's supposed to help me keep it drained - wouldn't that be spooky/boogedy if he knew that? right now i'm doing the bassinet rocking with foot trick and he grunts until i look at him. i wish he'd do a nice 4 hour sleep so i can too. sis is off checking out the gold coast beaches... house to self...

i bought a medela pump yesterday to finish off whatever he can't in that boob. i do need some help with the whole bottle thing before i try feeding it to him.

1) how do you dry whatever you've boiled sterilised?
2) do you sterilise them just before you give the bottle or do you store them? if so, where?
3) how do you warm the EBM if it's been in the fridge/freezer?
4) is it the same calculation for how much ebm they get as if you were doing formula?

hmm... all this makes BF look easy... step one... flop out boob... step two.. attach the little sucker ... step three... zone out.

he's just squawking every few seconds at me.. guess i'd better go.

sigh.
