Ahh, that's where you've all been hiding am a bit slow, but glad I found my bely buddies! been having separation anxiety hahaha

Leemar - hope the thrush clears up soon, Alex got it in hospy, so they gave us the Daktarin gel nad I had to treat his mouth AND my nipples after every feed for 7 days, what a nuisance! ahd thrush down below as well, so thinking it's the same stuff I tried treating it with the Daktarin - BAD IDEA, it was stinging like hell and midwife laughed at me - NOOO DEAR, you need to use Canested, otherwise it will sting - no kidding. Are you Finding it easy to put the gel into Olivia's mouth? Alex really fought it :P

OB took out my stitches last week as one got infected - ouch since then I've been having so much fresh bleeding I don't know whether that is lochia (it was light pink before) or is that from the stich site, but it's been a week...think I'll call him and ask, should I?

Cally - I have a super B/feeding pillow. I got is from Toys R Us, it cost $89 but man if was worth it. My back was in agony before and by wrists gone all limp, but ths pillow helped. It's called My Breast Friend, it's made from fairly hard foam and it has a back section, you basically clip it around you, so it becomes like a little table. I found stufffing around with pillows a nightmare, so this is permanently in my arms reach whenever I need to feed.

Does anyone's baby grunt and strain in their sleep? Alex does that a lot, it sounds like he's straining on a toiled, it's weird. Sometimes he strains and produces really loud wet farts hat sound like nasty explosions, poor dear... don't know what to do about it.
