morning everyone,
just jumping on while the kids are still asleep!! yep asleep!! Billy has been up a couple of times to feed but Asha hasnt gotton out of bed yet.. she sleeps so much better now she hardly ever comes in with us and often sleeps in its great !! shame i have to wake her soon coz shes got swimming lessons ohh well..
feeling like a new woman here.. William is so content now its easy to put him down and get things done and now that ive caught up a little bit on sleep i feel much better.. i feel like i can manage the two of them and even get other stuff done too.. my best friend is coming up for about a month and when i first heard i was actually a bit negative about it (not to her) because he was still so difficult and i didnt think i would manage having company and going out more etc but now im looking forward to it.. i even got up this morning before i had to because Asha is still in bed and put a load of washing on and had my breakfast at the computer hehe hope this new found energy and attitude lasts!!
pap - it can be a problem with breastfed babies but its not anywhere near as common.. my neice had that problem she fed so frequantly that she wasnt getting enough coz they were shorter less efficient feeds.. she wasnt gaining weight properly tho if hes gaining weight and all else is well i wouldnt worry about it hes probably just going through a growth spurt or something and itll be great for ur supply!!
renee - thanx for the congrats hows rory doing now? i saw the pics on fb poor little thing must have given u a huge scare!! u can try some zyrtec or polaramine (both available from the chemist) to bring his rash down if the drs havnt already suggested something..
jaz - thanx i do feel much happier i feel like things are how they should be now.. i mean id rather him be breastfeeding but hes such a content little boy now i can balance things with both kids much better
