Clover & Vix - Thanks for your advice re the formula and about Noah. Really appreciate it heaps! I too think it must be the heat, he has been much better the last 2 days and has been sleeping better too (only waking for his usual 1am feed), although last night I gave him a top up feed at 10pm before I went to sleep and he slept all up from 7:30pm til 4:00am (he didn't really wake when I fed him at 10pm). Yay!!!
Clover - Yay on your digital camera and great photos on FB! You're quite the photographer there! Love the pics you have taken so far!! Noah weighed 5.19kg at 8 weeks and then 5.32kg at 9 weeks, then 5.57kg at 10 weeks. Sounds like Summer is gaining weight really well. Did I ever mention that I too use a nipple shield to feed Noah? According to the midwives in hossy there's nothing wrong with my nipples, but Noah doesn't open his mouth big enough to suck properly either and so they suggested a nipple shield. Seems to be working well and I don't have to worry about sore and cracked nipples.
Vix - Yay on Alannah's giggles, how adorable! I swore I heard Noah give me a little giggle the other day as well, but not a 100% sure. I'm sure he'll do it sooner rather than later though! lol Can't wait!! He does seem to be cooing more and it seems to be getting louder! lol Noah doesn't suck his thumb, he sucks his fist and tries to put his whole fist into his mouth sometimes, making himself gag! Funny to see the faces he pulls though...lol
Hello Nikki, Brydz, Raffy, Sparkles and everyone else!
AFM, had a really good night and feel pretty good this morning. My little monkey woke at 6:30am, had a feed, then we had a play and he just went back to sleep about 15mins ago. I have popped on some of his washing and just had some brekky (all in 15mins - I'm getting quicker at things while he's asleep! lol) Hopefully today is not as hot as it's been the past few days...
ETA - Forgot to say that I finally gave in and DTD, but man it hurt like hell!!!! Have read everywhere that it's normal, but OMG...at this stage I don't know if it'll ever feel NORMAL and NOT painful again!!!
