Mylitta, your photo sessions sound great. Nice to have it done by the same person as with your pregnancy and other littlies.

Skybie, thanks for the reminder about pelvic floor exercises! I'm doing them right now Excellent that the bleeding has stopped for you, maternity pads suck. I haven't tried Moo Goo products though I know they get great reviews - we're using Gaia on Willow at the moment and I have it the shower too, love the smell.

sararose, did you get more sleep last night?

Elocin, how's ol' shifty eyes?

Hi Razz and zilly, hope you're both well.

AFM: had a fairly decent night's sleep, DH found a great white noise app and Willow and got a couple of solid blocks snoozing to 'heavy rain'. He's insisting I sleep back in our bed tonight though and that we try the bassinette again, I'm really missing being in with him and have to get my head around the fact that Willow will be just fine in there. I've had teary meltdowns most afternoons this week, almost always at the same time - am fine during the day but as soon as the sun goes down I feel really weepy and tired am thinking it's just baby blues with all the hormones etc - and if my overflowing bosoms are proof, well, there it is. MCHN nurses are way behind so won't have a home visit until next week, so my list of questions continues!

Had our newborn photo session today, Willow did very well until towards the end when she'd clearly had enough of being jiggled around and absolutely cracked it. She left her mark by weeing on the photog's hand and pooping on one of her cream wraps She's currently napping in the bouncer but I'm expecting a bit of an unsettled night tonight.
