M2W - I'm having a glass of red wine as I type.... I agree with Stacey, a drink after you've fed isn't going to hurt and you can always express if she's not due for a feed.

Robert slept really well last night, yesterday and today (so far). I gave him a feed just after 5pm yesterday and then he had his bath and crashed so we put him to bed. He slept until 10 when I gave him another feed then went to bed. Then he didn't wake until 2.50am which was great then he did another 3 hour stint after that. I think going to bed works better for us at home (the whole 12 hour "overnight sleep" thing). DH gets up at 530 during the week and I like to get up with him. Plus when I go back to work in September, I'll be getting up early anyway so we'll stick with the early to bed routine.

Had a lovely mothers day. DH cooked me eggs benedict this morning - poached egg on an english muffin with smoked salmon and spinach topped off with homemade hollandaise sauce. The kids gave me the collectors tin of Buffy (yep, hopeless Buffy fan here). I've done not much all day except be waited on.

Is anyone elses bub eating more at each feed? Robert now empties both boobs but, as above, he's also sleeping longer.
