hi everyone. thanks for all your help and suggestions on the breastfeeding thing. i think i'm starting to get it under control now. ds seems to be getting enough milk just from the breast so i haven't expressed or given him any formula today. feeds were just turning into too much of a hoo ha and were taking over an hour! now i'm just chucking him on the boob for as long as he wants (sometimes 30 mins each one!) and trusting that he's getting what he needs. he's been weeing and pooing a lot and semms happy and content, so i think it's all working. grrr bfing is so confusing and i think some midwives have stuffed me up a bit and made me paranoid. oh and btw, you can count me in to the large brown flat gang too.
anyway, apart from all that i'm loving having little one home, despite the lack of sleep. it's great. he makes me so happy everytime i look at him.
hoping i can get on here tomorrow and read back on some posts and see what i've missed. is there any news on queeni yet?
