Hello. My bonnie baby belle, Lilac, was born on June 16. She was induced a little early because I had a dangerous liver thing called obstetric cholestasis, but she was ready to come. We left hospital a night early so I could be with my family who I missed. Like you, I have been a bit emotional at night and felt too lonely at hospital. Boy is it good to sleep in my bed again!

Breast feeding is going well, but I'm currently on mad lookout for early mastitis because it happened last time, but I think we got through rock-boobs without drama.

I'm so hungry all the time, so even though I only gained 7kgs during pregnancy and have just a little hint of a baby belly left, I am eating so much now I'll probably balloon. Oh well, I made the mistake last time of not getting enough sustenance so I'm happy to do what it takes this time for breastfeeding to go smoothly.
