I am here too.....with a baby in a rocker beside me and a DH asleep on the other couch and me.....doing the housework!

Taurean - I am with you with the MIL - mine is all for the "helpful" comments....she also suggested honey on the dummy or vegemite! And they wonder why I won't leave my baby with them for 5 minutes! She came over the other day and it was the mostpainful few hours...felt like i had to justify every part of my mothering technique. I am so thankful my own mum has never told me what to do. I have known quite a few bubs who ended up seeing an osteopath for a crook neck after a vacuum....bubs wouldn't attach to one boob - turns out their necks were out - afterwards fed like champions!

AFU - V has a cold, just gets really snotty overnight and has problems breathing. I am glad she sleeps next to me so i can hear and see what she is doing. Nothing else really new....has to go to the paed tomorrow for a blood test as he can't tell if she has asian colouring or is still jaundiced! (she is only 1/8 chinese).

She is screaming x
