OMG I just typed a huge reply and bl00dy lost it all!!!!! Now I'm cranky. I'll redo a brief summary of what I had.

Summertime - Yes I have quite a stash of EBM. I have a draw in our bar freezer dedicated to all my frozen stash and now I need to enroach on another draw as I've run out of room. I'm storing it all for when I head back to work in October. Whomever is looking after L will have plenty there. My tail bone is pain. I find it really painful to sit and to get up from sitting and also rolling over in bed. The pain is like the pain after a vaginal birth except my pain hasn't gone away if that makes sense.

L sleeps 6 hours for the first half of the night and then 4 hours after that. She cat naps in the morning till around 10 -11am and then has another 4 hour sleep and then cat naps again in the afternoon. She has her own bassinette in her own room. I wouldn't be able to sleep properly if she was in our room as I'd be wide awake at every little sigh she'd make. I do co sleep sometimes if she is really upset or unsettled but that isn't very often and I'm not encouraging that behaviour as I don't want it to lead to problems down the track. gee I sound like a mean mummy lol.

Gemini_girl - I too shower with bubs if DH is home to bring her in and grab her when we are done. That could be an option as well. haha to the splashing. Could be an exspensive bath if your using disposables.

Bern - Cluster feeding is when bubs will want to feed pretty much all afternoon. They feed and then have a play or catnap and then want to feed again. The cycle can go on all afternoon sometimes. L doesn't do it so much anymore but there were days where all I seemed to do was sit on the couch and feed all afternoon. Hard to get dinner done when she's like that. Ow how cute for DD to be sleeping with DH while playing playstation. DH does that but it's watching the motorbikes or football on TV. Gives me a great break to do stuff.

EMC - Crickey what a birth story. I'm glad your family was there. Is Jim your first?

Babybelly burton - Time is certainly going by in a hurry. L will be 8 weeks on Friday! Oh dear to your dummies. Lucky it wasn't worse.

OK lets post this again lol.
