You are both so funny . If I was having a boy I would have been pressuring DH heavily for Xander as a name and that would have made 3 in the same group...priceless! All these Buffy fans, I was even joking to a gf of mine that I could name him Xander Harris but my DH wasn't going along with that part.
I finally got around to looking for the baby buddies thread. Thanks to Loralei being such a great baby and my carpal tunnel finally letting up a bit.
Loralei Grace was born 23/09/08 at 9.35pm weighing 3670gm (8lb 4oz), 35cm head and 50cm long.
haha Curl, great to see you in here too. X/Zander is such an awesome name you clearly have good taste too!
Glad your carpal tunnel finally let you in and hope it's improving for you!
SamiH, sounds like things have been tough, hope you're feeling better.
I've been having some bf'ing hell, but have an LC coming tomorrow and think we're making progress (to summarise: inverted nipples/nipple shield/expressing... arrgh! ). Otherwise, he's just a little darling and sleeps & feeds like an angel. Very lucky and hoping that will last for a bit! We had a bath together today - was just gorgeous.
Belfie, we are a sad bunch aren't we with not posting very often. Hopefully that will all change when our babies are cooperating a little better for us to sneak off to post something. I hope your LC visit went well and that your little man Xander is now feeding like a trooper on your newly healed bb's . Sounds painful and hard work from what you've said so good on you for continuing to try to bf. I haven't ventured down the bathing with Loralei yet, due to how I have to get out of the bath (long story cut short - bad knee).
SamiH - I hope you're doing great with Zander.

Curl, thanks for the encouragement. The BFing sure is hard work! We're doing mostly ok. I still have some feeds where he just doesn't settle on the BB and gets antsy (two of those eralier today )so we go bottle, but on the whole, it's going pretty well.
Re the bath, s'one told me to make sure you have a handy DH or DP around. So DH hands you bubba and then you hand bubba out to DH once you're done. Then wriggle around & pull the plug, and stand up in a nice empty bath. If need be, you could wait until DH had dried & put down bubba then DH could assist you out. Don't know if that's doable with a dodgy knee, but i'll wish you luck anyways! I hope all your feedings and sleepings are going ok!
SamiH - good luck with the expressing & sleeping!
Cheers,
Belfie.
