Just a quick one with a couple of things so please don't think I am ignoring you
Cara as if we wouldn't want you here! I wouldn't move to a different belly buddy group either LOL I wouldn't care!
My bleeding stopped abotu a week ago, but it can go for up to 6 weeks I think?
For those of you who are using MCN, I am too We've been in them from birth, using the packet of disposables from the hospital for going out, but as of about a week ago it's full time cloth I have one NB magicall with the pocket and booster. LOVE it! Mostly we use Sustainable Hemp Products lushies. They are so so so soft and squishy and last Elijah ALL night. Also been using Whizz Kidz in the newborn snap setting. I have a few bubblebubs and auriels which I've been using but much prefer the lushies with woolies. He looks SO cute in his woolies too <3
Missymoo I wish I could do your trick of feeding at night and then popping them back to sleep, but Zach does his typical poo-with-every-feed thing, so changing him becomes a necessity, although he is becoming easier to settle afterwards. It is quite amusing actually - he will pause in his feeding, his little eyes will widen and look all intent, and then he will make little grunting noises and then... SQUELCH!!! A baby poo-plosion!
Today my ds's were tag-teaming me... Zach wouldn't settle for his dad while ds1 was sleeping, and then when bubba finally went down ds1 got up and he chucked a real wobbly when he asked where I was and his dad said I was having a sleep... so no nap today boo!
starangelk - Zach did a big spew this morning too, all over the bed!
I must say - I am loving having my body back again!!! Although it doesn't appear to be exactly the same body I left here 9 months ago... <looks at body suspiciously>... but it is great not sharing it anymore. I am not one of those people who misses being pregnant haha, I am very happy not to be pregnant anymore! Wow on people's weight loss - sounding good! I lost 10kg in 10 days (having a baby = the ultimate weight loss scheme!!!), but as i put on 16kg with the pregnancy i still have around 6 to go (and then the 6 or so kg I had kicking around prior to the preg over my fighting weight... hmmm, so probably about 12 all up i'd like to lose - I hope the rest falls off as easily as the first 10 lol!)
And entreat, i just checked out your photos - they are amazing!! I love the 'prayer feet', and you're right, the look on Jack's dad's face is just lovely
Thanks! I sent them to my OB today. I hope he likes them too.
And on the weight loss: I didn't put any weight on in the 3rd tri (thanks to not eating chocolate at work, plus going to the gym), so my weight gain for the pg was ~11kg. I weighed myself on the bathroom scales this morning, and they say I'm 2kg lighter than my conception weight. Admittedly, they aren't the scales I used to use (I used the gym ones), but I think thats a pretty good effort. Maybe breastfeeding is the key that I've been missing from my diet!
