Sorry I've been MIA too, I have been reading just not having time to post.
I live in Cairns and this is my third bub and I've never had a health nurse or anything. Basically here after you've had your baby the hospital sends a midwife to your house for a few days after you come home to weigh bub and check to see that everything is going ok and that's it. After that you're pretty much on your own to organise bubs check ups with your GP etc. We do have community health clinics where we can take our bubs to get weighed whenever we want to etc. I would love to join a mothers group, especially since we moved to this suburb of Cairns in Jan so it would be great to meet other mums out in the suburb I am in. Will have to check to see if the Community Health Clinic organises something.
Everything is going well here, Lexie is definitely chubbing up, she is growing so quickly. It makes me sad coz she is my last bub. DD2 is a bit rough with her at times and sometimes I think it is on purpose. She has been sleeping well at night. Going to sleep around 10pm and sleeping through until around 5.15am and then straight back to sleep after her feed. I'm hoping this is her starting to sleep through the night.
Gotta go, I am in the middle of cooking dinner. DH works nights so its always busy around here at this time with me and the 3 girls.
