Wow Tegam I'm stressed about having dd and bubs all myself just for the morning tomorrow! Dh goes back to work, two weeks has really flown by :( Hope you'll be ok. Good work on the cloth nappies!
We have a fb group consisting of just me and phyrephly at the moment! If others want to pm me their emails I'll add you in :)
I will PM when on laptop :-)
*takes 3 deep breaths and dives right in repeating "Facebook is not evil..." and trying not to faint*
PM'd you Cattie ;)
Haha Eivie, I feel exactly the same! Just checking, my friends wouldn't be able to see the posts, right? Pretty sure my brothers don't want to read about my sore nipples or the stitches on my hoohaa. :rofl:
I have Sent my details
Sorry havent been around much bubby is still in hospital
:-(
Oh geez kellbell, i really hope she turns a corner for you and you can go home! How are you coping? X
Oh no Kellbell, how incredibly difficult that must be. Do you have any idea how much longer she's expected to stay?
Oh no kellbell :( ...That's aweful. Have they got a better idea of what it is? I really hope you can take her home soon...
Oh kellbell my heart breaks for the introduction to motherhood uou have had! Hope little miss A keeps improving as fast as she has been. Some knew she would need those lovely chubby legs! You did such a wonderful job growing her and giving her a Beautiful birth. When she gets home you should set up the birth pool and have a beautiful float with her!
Little man loved his first bath. He gave me a better night sleep and has had great wake periods today so fingers crossed :)
Sorry Kellbell. I agree with Tegam's idea of a a float together. Bub will love it. I can't imagine what you are going through. Hugs x
Raupe if it's a closed group then no no one will be able to see a thing and people will only be allowed to join the group by invitation and not be able to even search for thè group.
Eivie you could set up a profile for Facebook just for this group if you are very worried.
Cattie I added you on fb this morning. I'm also friends with jessica so she can just add me.
Jess how are the old boobs today?
Sorry to hear that kellbell :( Any indication when she might come home? Is she improving?
I really think my fb is playing up, can't find ppl and not getting these fr... I'll jump on the pc after this feed and see if that's any better! And I chose 'secret' for the group so I think that means it won't come up on your friend's feeds!

Cattie I've just search all the threads and I can't find the details of birth.... Again. I'm sorry :)
Eivie our babies were 9cm different but the same weight almost :)
Kellbell- I'm so sorry you are going through this, we were only in scn for 2 days and I was beside myself. I have everything crossed that she is home soon x
Cattie-I'll pm you.
Afm-DD screamed all afternoon yesterday. From 2:30-7:30pm! I was exhausted as was she. She then did a great sleep, 9pm til 2am!! I have no idea what's going on. I'm thinking its silent reflux. I can see her bring something up but it always goes back down, so maybe its hurting her. I have no experience with reflux, anyone got any ideas?
Hi all I had a bad day Saturday.. After feeling like such a calm, relaxed new mum who felt she was getting it right, I felt as though everyone was telling me I was doing it all wrong =(
She had put on weight at her 2wk check but only 70g so not back to birth weight (only just) and was told she needs to put on 300g in next two weeks or back to see the dr. So to go weigh her at cayfhs weekly.. I also have to feed her 3hrly till night and then I can let her have a block sleep at night.. Till then we were feeding on demand and that was 4-5hrly with maybe a 6hr block at night but the OB at the hospital said that's fine..
So the first night was a bit stressful and she didn't wanna settle for DH and he was stressing. I was sulking in bed (woe is me haha) and then he has a go at me saying she hates being swaddled and not having arms free!!!! What?? She has been swaddled at since day 1 and she is fine!! It differentiates her days from nights and she had always been a good sleeper!!! I felt like I failed..
I'm doing better now thanks to some great family support =(
KellBell- sorry to hear you can't bring bubs home yet, hope it's all over soon and you can have a float in the birth pool xx
Lady-bug- I have no exp with reflux but I was told the other day that there is a baby gaviscon you can mix with their feeds? I'm not sure if you are bottle feeding at all??
Cattie- I will pm you my email tonight =)
Tegam- my bubs was 4kg also and head was 34.5cm =) glad the little man loved his bath!
Jessica- glad you love us all enough just to make a fb that's dedication lol
Hey to everyone else! Hope your travelling well! And apologies for the woe is me post =(
