I think we may have some more time for our older kids when ours bubs can be entertained a bit by others. Right now DS usually wont last in his moses basket (its in the lounge room) for more then 5 mins without cracking it. Even when DD 2 and 3 hold him h wont last more then a few mins. His a bit better with DD1 as I do let her carry him around (she is 14 and has a lot of experience with young children and babies).

Yes I have been doing my pelvic floor too although I must say I haven't noticed much of a difference from before the birth which is nice. With my 3rd it took several weeks before I could even tell I was doing them if that makes sense. I'd do the squeeze and I couldn't feel a thing.

The midwife/child health nurse came yesterday. I was stoked bub had gained 560grams in 11days (from his discharge weight of 3110grams). At least all this feeding is doing something. I work with the lady that came and she thought I looked anaemic. My mother does too. I don't look myself. DS is going ok. He cluster feeds for 1-2hours which can be difficult with the older kids but then usually gives me a solid 3 hrs before repeating the pattern again. Overnight he usually doesn't feed that long but still having a good 3-4 feeds overnight. The nappies are settling too which is good. Only usually 1 change overnight now from 3-4. Bleeding is the same. I just wish it would go away already.
