I know, I know! It's been ages since I posted. But I have a new computer now!!!!! A lovely new iMac. Finally couldn't put it off any longer after a power surge during a storm killed my old PC. I have been checking in on you all though whenever I could.
Matthew is doing well, he's a cheeky monkey though. After being brilliant with the bottle, he doesn't want it at all now. So I've been back on the breastfeeding treadmill for a few weeks now. I did try different formula brands (some of them are really foamy and gave Matthew really bad wind pain so I gave up and went back to trying him with S26 Gold but he spits it out and screams). Really don't know how much longer I can breastfeed him though, as he's getting so much bigger and needing more and more. Tomorrow he has his three-month weigh in. Two weeks ago he was 6.5kg, so I'm hoping that he has put on the weight he's supposed to have.
Eej, I've got really bad back pain too at the moment. I think mine's from feeding Matthew in bed and being twisted up. I bought some "Nurofen for back pain" after checking that it's ok to take Nurofen while breastfeeding. It took the edge off the pain. Be nice to be able to get to a physio or to have a massage...
I feel very guilty but there's no way I can catch up with everyone for personals before Matthew wakes up so I'll be lazy this time and give you a group hug, love and kisses - and a promise to be on more often now!
