Leah, sounds like you've been busy busy! Have a rest girly! Put your feet up

Teagz, glad you're going to stick around here!

jenjams, how are you going tonight? I hope Alice is more settled for you.

I'm with you girls on the BF'ing - I almost forgot that I had to do everything to get DD attached, was still used to DS being able to attach himself! I also had bleeding, cracked nipples for the first few days. I was a bit lazy with the attachment, but I got it sorted quickly. I have sensitive nipples as it is and when she is due for a feed they ache which is weird. I don't feel anything in my boobs when I get a let down but instead I get majorly thirsty.

We haven't got a dummy (yet). So far she doesn't seem to need one and I've been putting her on the boob any time she is grizzly or unsettled which has really helped with my supply. I'm open to using one though if she needs it. We got to 4 weeks with DS before we gave him one.

I've been very lucky in that I've had DH home on holidays so he has been helping out big time with DS and the house. DS is being a bit more rowdy and attention seeking. I feel like I'm always telling him off. He loves to talk to and cuddle Amelia but then in the next breath he will try and pull her legs or bop her on the head! He's also pinching me and he thinks time out is a game so I'm at a loss what to do. Whether I just ride it out or try something, don't know what!

Anyway, sorry for the ramble. Hope you lovely mummas are well and getting lots of rest! xox
