Hello all you yummy mummies! I have a wee bit of time since Alister is sleeping ATM, so I thought I'd pop in quickly and let you know how we've been getting on.
Firstly, Alister is doing so well - loves his tucker and sometimes I just can't get over how much he can have at once LOL. I think he will be a big eater like his big brother was as he came out of hospital at his birth weight. I am glad I didn't buy too many 000 as he is already fitting them quite comfortably and wont be long until he's in 00. he sleeps like a champion and usually goes 4-5hrs between feeds overnight. So I can feed him at 9 and he wakes up around 2-ish and then down again until about 7-8am. He is a lot like LIndsay was as a bub too. We had our first family day out together yesterday and Alister slept most of the time and only woke once for a feed and then back to sleep again. Bit of a logistics problem ATM cause the new car hasn't arrived yet so we took two cars.
Me - I am doing great considering the birth was pretty hard. I didn't have any stitches and only a small graze, which I am stoked about as I tore with the girls and had an epi with Lindsay. And the vuhjayjay is looking pretty good considering it's only been a week - not a turkey neck in sight LOL. The BF was over before it began as my milk never came in at all. I had about a day and a half of producing colostrum and they never filled up at all with milk. So I am using formula. This is my last baby and I didn't want to spend these first precious weeks in tears with an unsettled hungry baby and time-neglected older children trying to flog a dead horse kwim?
I am glad you are all loving being mummies - for the first time and again - and are doing so well, we're a pretty amazing bunch arent' we LOL. And welcome to Little Sprocket too and to all the mummies who decided to join us
