Chase weighed 5kg today! And he got his immunisations He cried so loud, never seen his face so red lol. My poor little baby. Can't believe he is 2 months old today, bloody hell.
ferrals: LOL about her nappy changes, Chase is the opposite he loves being free as soon as you lift the flap over his junk he straightens out his legs and complains. 'Don't cover my junk mum!' Thats good that she is feeding every 4-5 hours, Chase is still feeding pretty much every 3 hours but last night surprised me by sleeping from 10pm to 5am. I think that was a fluke though LOL Hope you get into your new house quickly so you can come back to us
jaki: yay for W getting bigger!!
Kylz: hope J gives you a nice break tonight and goes to bed a little earlier and easier.
Haven't been able to get online for a bit, we all have a bad cold - even Elise has it now the poor thing
She got weighed yesterday and was only 90g below her birthweight, yay for that.
Infant's Friend is also our best friend - without it I would have gone nutty. It stops most of Elise's tummy pains and her bad stinky gas too.
Elise usually feeds every 3-4 hours, sleeps for 4-5 hours, and we've only resorted to formula a few times when there's no EBM in the fridge, which there usually is 2 bottles in there at any given time these days, BFing isn't working very well, we try to get her on the boob 3 times day, but she just gets frustrated and stressed out after a few sucks and ends up with worse tummy pain which makes me stressed out and frustrated too, so sticking with the expressing for now, getting between 125mls and 145mls every time, which is a littleover a feed for her - she's been drinking 100-125mls a feed since yesterday!
And last night she slept from 10pm to 5am! Was such a shock as it's the first time she's ever slept for that long! Needless to say, other than the fact that I'm sick and that I woke up at 3:15 needing to express as I was leaking all over the bed, I feel well rested and not too bad Amazing what a good nights sleep will do.
Must go, today is my first day home alone with DS & Elise without hubby here, though my stepsister is here for a bit so I'll get her to help out for a while, and my bestie is supposed to be coming around today as well, so I'll get her to steal DS for a while and take him to the park, give me a chance to get some things done around the house while Elise is asleep.
Hope everyone is managing to get some sleep and your bubs are behaving
kylz pics are too cute
jaki - yay for feeding in public! i fed for the first time at playgroup the other day, although i dont think it really counts seen as it was only me,dh,ella's besties mum who happens to be my bestie, and one other lady haha. tried at the shopping centre, but chickened out and hid in the parents room. great about wyatt's weight gain too!
kitty - woohoo 5kgs! it's so weired to think he is 2 months old now!
jenna - i get the leaky boobs too if dd sleeps for more than 3 hours. which is hardly ever lol.
AFM- have had super heavy bleeding last night and today, has anyone else had this? DD is 2 weeks old today, and bleeding had totally stopped for a day. nothing. so weird dont know whether to get it checked out or if its normal to stop and start.....think chloe has colic going to gp tomorrow, we got the infacol, but i dont think its really doing much to help. have only been using it since 3pm feed yesterday so will persevere a bit longer.....meanwhile she screams from 10pm til 2am every frikkin night, then dd1 wakes up at 6am. think i'm going to go nuts when dh goes back to work on saturday. at least at the moment we have one kid each lol. taking her to chiro or osteo hopefully this week, so hope that helps.
oooh infants friend, might buy some to have around at crazy time of the night lol. good to know about the bleed, hope mine buggers off soon that would be great lol. x
we are doing good - have midwife coming to see us this arvo n drs tomorrow. feeding is going well, just that it's sore when jack attaches on at start but we think he is slightly tongue tied so will see what my midwife says today. we had a good nite last night - no unsettled period so hopefully we have his day/night on track now. luke is so much better now that we are home and loves helping out
bbl - got to get us ready to head to mum's so midwife can see us
