DM - Thats great that Daytona isnt as jealous of Lilli RE the boobies, mine are the same. Fill quick and get sore. I'm just glad they dont get hard anymore lol.

BF - I hope Matteo feels better soon, poor little guy. Thats great his started smiling! Xavier gives us some big cheesy ones, but we know its just wind/gas lol. Still cute though.


Afm, Had our first visit from the MCHN yesterday and she seems nice enough. I got Xavier weighed and his put on 155grms in 6 days! Little fatty. So he's now 4260kgs (9lb6).
We are also feeding every 1-2 hours during the day. At night he's every 3-4 hours. Its been suggested to me to use a dummy during the day to try and space his feeds out longer, but I'm not too keen on that. He'll figure his own routine out. I have used the dummy for the first time today though to get him off to sleep. He wanted boobie not even half hour after his 10am feed so I gave him to dummy and got him to sleep that way. Idk if I'll keep it going, I dont want him to learn when the dummy falls out he wakes and cries until its back in (which happened just before). He's been self-settling really well on his own so I would love for that to continue.
We also had our first full night of co-sleeping last night. Xavier usually sleeps in his cot in his own room, but he wet his sheets and I'd forgotten to wash the 2nd set earlier this week. So he had to sleep with us ... not that I wasnt thrilled It was SO nice ... I may just have to do it again >=D

And with that his now awake and wanting boobie lol
