Hi... jumping over here from the BellyBuddies...
guess i should probably update the ticker and signature and stuff.
Lewis Henry was born 26th January (Happy Australia Day!), little brother to Edward.
All going beautifully so far! A couple of 'baby blue' days under my belt but generally a lot more relaxed with #2, although i constantly feel guilty and worried that i'm not managing to give anyone the 100% attention that they deserve.
Feeding going well - he loves it, think my milk comes out a bit fast for him sometimes though - probably due to Edward still BF until a few weeks ago, all good - he'll learn to keep up!!
Snuggles to all these beautiful babes
Are everyone's partners on holidays or are you into 'real life' yet? my DH has one more week off... getting nervous about handling two by myself, but everyone else seems to survive it don't they?!?!?!
S'rose - I'm glad the group went well. Amelia is demand feeding and yesterday I did exactly what you suggested, shortened her feeds and she seemed to cope ok. She didn't actually want to be fed anymore than previous days and the amount of vomit was considerably reduced
AliMoy - congrats on the birth of Lewis! My DH is still at home, he has one more week to go too. TBH I'm a little nervous about when he goes back to work too!
Congrats again Alimoy, and it's wonderful to have you here.
Congrats PinkLilly.
Chody47 - I am so glad for you that Amelia is vomiting less, it makes such a difference for yourself!!
I am having an RDO today lol.. Not leaving the house for a change and enjoying it already. Oscar has been a little grumbly and not sleeping so well, so we are a tired household. Managing, just tired. I have so much washing to catch up on, with Oscar being rabbitty I have gotten behind again. It's time I bought a dryer, it will ease the drying of so much stuff all the time. I have a massage booked on Thursday, and the wonderful masseur has no problems with Oscar being with me. I am so grateful to have found her as it's impossible to get DH to mind him during the day. I can't wait!!
S'rose - I'm a bit tired too....but I guess that is to be expected.....DH is still on hols but I do my best to let him sleep at night (even though Amelia is in our room and I'm feeding and stuff in there) as I want to be able to do it all on my own at night when he goes back to work so he is not too tired there. TBH, Amelia is sleeping pretty well (woke twice last night), but I guess it just takes a little getting used to being awake for a couple of one hour stints in the middle of the night..... She is being quite good and seems pretty chilled. I'm taking her to the doc today just to get her checked with all the vomiting. It is happening a bit less but still happening. I guess I'm just a bit worried she might have some sort of reflux or allergy as I did when I was a baby (Mum and Dad had to feed me something different so I could keep it down). Hopefully we will find out today.
