Phynna - just quickly on the topic of c sections, I was going to reply and never got there. I am feeling relatively 'normal' as well. I think it took me until 2 and a half weeks for my belly not to hurt when I coughed, sneezed, got up and down off of the couch of or out of bed. Apart from my complications with my wound opening up this time, I am feeling ok. I have never had any real dramas from c sections though. Delivered around 4am with DD1 and I was up walking around by lunch time. DD2 was a bit longer, but not from the pain, but because I was vomiting from the morphine they put in my drip. This recovery was initially slower, I did not want to get out of bed. But I had a hard deliver due to scar tissue and Luka not wanting to come out, plus I blame my age on it a bit as well. As for the bleeding, I am barely there now. I found that it lasts about 6 weeks from the girls. Too scared to lose the pads at this stage, just in case I have an accident when out and about. Hope that answers your question. I guess its like natural child birth in a way, people have good and bad experiences.

Great news about TTC, she was a teeny tiny little one.

Colestar - Night feeds seem to be our worst, Luka is a up and party dude from midnight on. Last night we tried everything to settle him and in the end gave him another bottle (2 hour gap) and a shower. He loves the shower and goes to sleep pretty quick when in there. We are waiting for him to get some type of routine, but it is yet to happen. I think once DH goes back to work things will work better. Even though I don't want him to and I love having him help, things just flow better when he is at work. I am hoping our night owl gets his days and nights worked out soon!

Best be off. I have things to organise. THinking about getting MIL to look after the kids on Sunday so I can take DH to the movies to see Avatar which he has been busting to see. I am ok to leave the girls, but having issues leaving Luka. They look after their other grandaughter and she is 1 and a half and a lot more demanding (and really rough) and I am stressed about it. So unless we take him with us I will just give it a miss. Not sure what to do?
