    Just a quick hello... yes I'm still resting, well trying to without going stir-mad!

    Today is my first day home alone all day with Kaylee and no help... so far so good !

    After the 8am feed I had hoped to go back to bed, after being up for a good part of the night with Kaylee = but she had different ideas, just didn't want to settle. So after a couple of top-ups I put her in the sling and she finally went to sleep - too scared to move her now. But have managed to get a few things done with her in the sling, including getting the kitchen cleaned up! Hopefully I will get a nap later, if she will let me... Otherwise, plan to spend most the day on the couch with her in front of the TV, can't do much else = must rest arg!

    Amber - congrats on your 4-year anniversary! It's our 3-year anniversary on 21st Nov... As for Myles' spft spot, I would keep an eye on it - the midwife said if it sinks in it can be a sign of dehydration - is he getting enough liquid?? Otherwise, I have no idea!

    Kaylee makes lots of noises in her sleep, does anyone else's baby??
    Sometimes I find it hard to sleep at night when she is sleeping because of the noises - mum thinks she might be having bad dreams

    Nic - hope everything is ok for you and you heal quickly! I have been told I will most likely have to have a c/s if I have another bubs = so think I would rather be booked in than go through what I did this time... but would be doing with a toddler = have told Steve he will need to take at least a month off next time! He isn't so sure he wants a next time atm, hasn't got over seeing me go through everything I did this time...

    Anyways - must go rest.

    Hugs and lots of love to all the mummies and gorgeous bubbies!

    Hello ladies.
    I am supposed to be in the November group, but due to pre-eclampsia, had to have bub earlier by 3 weeks.

    Things are going well. BFing is pretty good except he gets the nipple in his mouth and doesn't know it is there so moves his head from side to side trying to find it! Once he is on he is fine and slurps like a trooper, but he gets so frustrated when he can't find it.

    Other than that, agree with you on the blues side of things. On the one hand I am so happy he is here with us and we just love him so so much. On the other I am terrified of all the bad things in the world that could harm him. I know I will get over it but they say the first bub is the most overwhelming? It is nice to know others are in the same boat, makes me feel more normal.

    We have had some outings, to the doctor to check on my blood pressure and to the shops. DH is so wonderful with him, I can't imagine doing it without him.

    Well, I am glad to be a part of this group, hope to share more ideas from here on in.
