I finally did my ticker last night, thanks to 'someone's' instructions on the Belly Buddies thread It's not the best picture of Bosley, but it'll do for the moment and I can update it later.

Bosley doesn't seem to want to sleep during the day - he was awake from 9 til 2:30 except for about 30 minutes in my arms - he cries if he's put down and even a walk in the pram didn't help. Should I be trying to get him to sleep or let him stay awake and hope it means a better night's sleep? Last night we got 4 hrs, 5 hrs and 3 hrs between feeds so I was stoked! better not say too much or I might jinx things!

Question time!!
How many singlets do you guys have for your little ones? And what sizes are your bubs wearing? Just wondering if it's worth buying Bosley any more 0000 or if he'll grow out of them too quickly. ATM we only have 5, but it's not enough. The 000 swim on him!

How's everyone going with the BF? My nipples are almost constantly tingly, very sensitive. It still hurts for the first couple of seconds when he latches on, but after that I'm ok. Plenty of cracking though - thank goodness for Lansinoh! Oh, and the leaking is pretty frustrating, especially at night time as I find I need to wear a bra to hold the breast pads in place and it can make it pretty uncomfy to sleep in. And when I get out of the shower, I drip constantly and have to hold the breast pads in place with one hand while I dry with the other! Kinda funny but kinda annoying iykwim.

What/How do you play with/amuse bubs during awake times? Bos will go in his bassinet for about 5 minutes before he gets stroppy, so we have to amuse him. He likes being sung to and will look at a rattle or musical toy if we hold it for about 2 minutes. The rest of the time he wants to be held or cradled or rocked or chest to chest. It's exhausting after 5 hours (like today!) and I can't get anything done (even going to the loo - he's screaming by the time I've done and takes ages to settle!

Sorry for all the questions, but it's interesting to know what everyone else is doing.

Sleepy - Elijah sounds like a fast healer! DH asked me if I wanted to keep Bosley's stump but that's kinda gross imo!

Pish - How are you going with your baby sling? Do you use it much and do you find it comfy? DH bought me a Bubba Moe for Mother's Day but so far I've been too sore to wear it. Is anyone else wearing their bub? At home?

Hi to everyone else!
