hi girls, how are we all?
well i got a text message yesterday warning about the extreme weather conditions for today, so decided to evacuate early and here i am looking out the window at rain and cold
oh well, better to be safe than sorry i guess.

pap- bad bad girl telling me about babys got style. where do you think i'll be heading next???
lewis is reacting really well to jimmy. he keeps trying to shove a dummy in his mouth and loves to cuddle and kiss him. it seems to have co-incided with lewis going through a real period of independence iykwim? i've noticed now that whenever i take him somewhere he is way more interested to hang around with other people more than me - like when we're at dad's- he follows dad around everywhere and wants to be involved with everything dad's doing but doesn't really care so much what i'm doing, if that makes sense? i think it's great cos it leaves me to feed jimmy. lewis is just turning into such a little boy now, i feel like he's growing up so quickly!

sherie- your day out sounds nice. yes my milk came in yesterday and i thought i was going to pass out from the extreme pain. you have seriusley never seen bigger harder boobs in your life. i can't wear a bra or anything. my dad has just headed down to the shops so i've asked him to buy me some big loose pyjamas from sussan to wear for the next few days so i can just lounge around comfy and breastfeed. yes i have been co-sleeping, not much sleeping has been going on though he spent all saturday night just sucking and sucking to get the milk through. i was exhausted and falling asleep sitting up. i know i keep forgetting how young he is, lewis was exactly the same the first couple of weeks but you forget you know? he just seems to be having trouble sleeping flat on his back- he wants to be more upright...anyway...i'm perservering with it all, i know breastfeeding is hard to establish but well worth it in the end. thanks so much for all your support and help, it's a hard and emotional time with a newborn.

jaz- i don't think my milk comes out too fast, i don't really know! i know he's getting lots though from all his wet dirty nappies.
you nearly had me crying when you were talking about your grandma- you are such a sweetaheart.

mm- oh i really really hope it's not the pox you poor thing having to worry about that now!
what did you end up doing about your hair for the wedding? what is the weather supposed to be like on sat?


i'm going to sneak into the shower quickly now while dad has taken lewis to the shops and jimmy is having a nap xoxo
