    Mrs Bexie- I tried to send you a personal message as well but your inbox is full. so sorry, I really didn't mean any offence. Gosh- it's so hard to show sarcasm etc when you're typing. You Dec girls are awesome, I didn't mean to infer that you are rubbish at all!! I guess I was trying to be funny and in my sleep deprived haze missed the boat completely!! I feel really bad now, I need to read over things I type before I post them to see how they sound.

    Sorry, sorry, sorry- and sorry to all the other Dec girls as well.

    oh dear..... i can promise you mrsb that glenny is one of the sweetest/softest people on BB and she would never intend to upset anyone, please stick around! We all just promised throughout our pregnancy that no matter when our bubs were born we would all join the same baby group, we filled 20 threads while pregnant, we are very close but certainlly not closed off to making new friends.....the more the merrier

    Yay, I'm allowed in here for real now that I had my baby!!!!

    Well, we're home. The big boys adore their big brother, although DS2 has been a little bit jealous already. DS1 got upset when he first woke up (at 5:30 so he was still very tired), because Josh arrived earlier than his predicted date of Thursday and because he desperately wanted a girl He's over it now and he is just adorable with little Joshy.

    The labour was shortish again. I'm going to say it started at 4:45 because that's the first time I actually thought "This is it" and the contractions started to become regular after being all over the place, and strong. I didn't have a single contraction in my belly - all pain was in my back. I was pushing when I got to the hossy again so I really fly through that first part of labour! I really struggled with pushing. I pushed for two hours and was just so exhausted. All three boys seem to have gotten stuck on the lip of my cervix. It wasn't until my marvellous mw suggested that I sit on the loo and push for a bit that I finally started to feel him move down and he was born about 15 minutes after that. Tell you what though, I felt like I was going to split from my bottom to my belly button! So glad I won't be doing that again!!!! Despite what it felt like, I didn't tear all that badly and only had a few stitches.

    Josh is feeding like a champion and probably like the older two, won't lose any weight before he starts gaining. My boobies are already leaking like taps when I'm not feeding him - I'm expecting my milk to start to come in tomorrow night - ouch!

    Can you believe I've had some sleep this morning? I've caught some here and there and have probably had four or five hours all up already!

    Oh isn't it? I wish my mw had suggested it earlier, I reckon Josh would have arrived at least an hour earlier and I wouldn't have felt so negative during and then after the labour. I will never look at a loo the same again

    for the last 3 days its been like this

    7-8am- wake up and first feed

    12pm- feed

    4-5pm- feed

    930-10pm- feed

    2-230 am- feed

    then back to 7-8am the next day!!

    so she has cut one bottle BUT is drinking more in her other feeds, thats ok isnt it??
