Yayayayyaayya Smamfa!!! I am so happy you are going to be in here and happy to hear from you in general! Can't wait to hear more about the birth and your gorgeous little man.
Missymoo - thanks for typing out your routine.......it sounds amazing. You totally have it all under control. No doubt there are still moments where you wonder what's going on but you've now given DH and I something to aspire too.
Seph - X prefers the left side too and latches on perfectly. RHS is a bit of a pain and that's my mastitis side. Feeling much better today though and managed to go to the office for an hour yesterday even so it's a win. That said, there is no way I can be BF in public at the moment considering my other boob leaks and leaks when I am feeding so I need to do the whole feed with a towel strapped to my chest. It's soooo annoying. It's something I need to raise with the midwife. We have an appointment with the MCHN again today and I must say, I really like mine. She is really kind and lovely but I wouldn't say she is super cuddly or all over X. She is pretty relaxed with her and doesn't hold her or even touch her much, DH and I handle X and she just speaks to us about whatever. Also X did a gigantic spew last night too, it was massive and went everywhere. It was about 30 mins after she had finished her feed after waking up from a mammoth sleep! So we bathed her and I just fed her again but she was pretty hungry by then.
I am a bit worried as all of your babies seem to be putting on heaps more weight than X........she's past her birth weight again so I know there is nothing to really worry about but we are getting her weighed again today so we'll see how things go.
