So Ellie is having some gas pain and it seems to be worse at night. Poor love. As a result she doesn't like to be put down after 5pm and is up and down all night. I've been bringing her into bed with us in the wee hours of the morning just so we can get a block of sleep longer than an hour. Seems to be helping.

She also has an infected fingernail which is causing her some pain. We had a wound nurse look at it yesterday (who also happens to be my sister) and she said it was bad but looks as though it's on the mend. So we are using betadine, breast milk and letting it air to dry out.

Other than that she is now 2 weeks old and I'm starting to feel physically better so am looking to start walking with her to shed the baby weight. Went for a walk with a gf and her 3mo this morning. Was good to get out and move.

Question: what is the bleeding supposed to be like after 2 weeks? Some days I'll get hardly anything on a pad and then other days it will be like I'm on the 1st or 2nd day of my period. I know it's supposed to last up to 6weeks but I just expected it to get lighter and lighter and not have this stop start business.. Anyone have the same?
