Gosh, Izzy is tiny compared to all the other bubbies! She's only 3.3kg and still struggling to fit into her 0000 wardrobe! She is still wearing 0000 wondersuits (not for much longer though - thought she'd be out of them by now!!) and premmie clothes from pumpkin patch. She even has a couple of 00000 suits! Its so cute but as you all know, I just wish she would grow a little faster. It really worries me
We are feeding izzy as much as possible again on the breast, with EBM and formula. Is so tiring, as a few of you know, and a little depressing. I'm seeing the doctor tom to get a script for the pills to help increase my supply. I think I have enough but the fatigue and stress is bringing me down. Izzy is sleeping well at night, usually down by 8 then up for a feed around 1 then another feed at 5ish, but having to feed 3 hourly during the day doesn't leave me much time for napping.
My thrush seems to have gone but my left nipple is killing me from the deep hole the burst milk blister left. Will get the doc to check it tom too. I dread feeding on that side. Izzy has taken to fussing during her night feeds too so my poor nipple gets yanked and chewed. I might have to bottle feed during the night to give it time to heal
So things are still tough but we are hanging in there. It's a good things she's so damn cute and placid (yes, back to normal after we reintroduced all the comp feeds)!!
Well I must get Missy off for a nap so I can express and continue cleaning. We have put our house on the market so the agent is taking photos for the Net tom morning. Thankfully DH is coming home early to lend a hand cause it's taken me 3 hours just to attempt the dusting - LOL!
