Just stepping over from my belly buddies thread. I can't believe how quickly the last nine months went - okay, so I was getting antsy at the end but YAY!! we made it.

Looking forward to hearing more stories girls - we shared the swollen ankles, back aches and constant peeing.... here's to pooey nappies, sore nipples and broken sleep!

[squidipa]

sore nipples cass heck one of myn feels like it was ripped off and now i have thrush on them so sending hubbie to chemist to get me some stuff tomorrow.

[LadyNoor]

Very full boobies, ouch... Bub's sleeping peacefully, already stuffed him with lots of milk earlier I don't think he can take it anymore...

Where is that cabbage I'm sure I have some in my fridge...

[Breesa]

Oh yeah, Im hearing you on the sore nipples.... man what a sucking action!

My little man is feeding every 1.5hrs and only occasionally going longer... hope that changes soon as im getting a bit worn out.

We didn't have a very successful night last night. Bub's woke around 2 for his feed, which was fine. He fell asleep midway so I changed his bum then put him back on. I must have nodded off not long after (we were side-lying down for the feed due to very full BBs). I guess he was so nice and warm and snuggled up next to mum he gave up on feeding. So after only an hour or so back in his bed he was awake again. I changed his bum (a nice pooey one) and gave him a bit of a top-up to send him back off to sleep. Well I got up a couple more times to these big eyes looking at me (he had no interest at all in sleeping). I finally gave up on the idea of staying in bed just after 4 when we sat on the lounge and watched some telly.
