I only signed up to BB in the last weeks of my pregnancy and so never joined a Belly Buddies group.

My son V. was born on 21st January, 11 days overdue and a medically indicated induction (not just for dates). He's our first child. It was a crazy labour, but we got through it. There were some worries about jaundice after he returned a positive Coombs test, that seems to have cleared up now. Breastfeeding was super-painful at first, still is a bit on the left side. I guess I have some residual nipple damage: hope that goes away very soon. The child health nurse did a home visit today and reported that he is stacking on the weight though, and he was already pretty big at birth. So that's good.
