Wish I was preggers- how crazy is that? Have been so upset ever since Garry announced he wants the snip/no more babies. He's agreed to wait six months to decide but says he is 100% certain he wants no more. I feel devastated at the thought but i've got siz months to nag him to death :rofl: I have jokingly warned him he'll hear me nag about it for the next 20 odd years... except i'm not really joking... :rofl:

I point blank refuse to take the pill now- i've said if he wants no babies, he can take care of the contraception, so condoms for us now which he hates so HA! :p
 
Thanks Ladies

So it seems on my MW's scale P is only 7lbs 1oz. So in 11 days she has gained 6oz. :-/ MW said to stop the marathon feeds....to keep switch nursing..5 min one boob, 5 min the other then back to the first for another 20 ish minutes. then she said that P might be so fussy because she wants to sooth herself at my boob....that when I can feed her...then pass her off to someone else. I am always so close to supplementing...but I feel like there is enough milk for her...she just isn't taking it. So...tomorrow I am calling the specialists office about the tongue-tie. so discouraging...

Yas: poor little guy :-( Keep us posted.

Alright, supper time before P wakes up...she's actually sleeping on her own for the last hour!!!

Yas they often wont do snip til baby is 1! Did G have bro/sis's? Does he want K to be only child or is there large extended family nearby to grow up with?
 
He's going private so they will do it. Bloody Marie Stopes and their lack of morals *cross face*. He already has 2 kids who are 18 and 19 so I can understand his reluctance... :(

He may be in his 40s and done with his child raising but i'm in my 20s and so not :(
 
Ahhhh is that what the blimen morning grunting is all about?!! He's having a poo? It keeps me awake from about 4am as I have to rock the crib to stop him waking!

It's interesting to hear about bed sharing. My dh is dead set against it and so far we've always managed to get Harry off to sleep in the basket although this can take me an hour a time!!

Brig I reckon growth spurt too. Harry is a very cuddly baby so he hates not being held and if he could he would stay on my boob all day just to suck. x

Yas sorry to hear about K. :hugs: Let us know what the dr says.

Love and hugs to all xxx
 
Oh was going to say Harry had his 10 day check on Sunday and apparently he weighed 9lb 6oz so 6oz more than his birth weight. I was told at the breast feeding clinic that he may be have been having marathon feeds just for comfort but not taking the hind milk as he might be a bit lazy (it's thicker so takes more sucking) so when he starts fussing I squeeze the boob and he carries on feeding.
 
ive gone on mini pill, cerazette, had to start it when soph was 3 wks old, rob said he doesnt want anymorw,but when i said maybe 1 when joshand soph start school he didnt say no, jetterts tell oh its nice for k to have a playmate:hugs:
 
F&C, what do you mean by squeezing your boob as S also starts fussing at times.
 
Ladies, I was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to help with baby's sickness. S always brings quite a bit of his milk back up and I know as long as he is putting on weight, it is due to his digestive system not being fully developed and not a problem as such. But I was wondering if there was anything at all I can do to help him? Any ideas?

We keep him upright after feeds, and he doesn't lie flat - GP suggested raising head end of bed slightly and this helped :thumbup:

How long do you keep him upright for and how much have you raised the head end?
 
I put argos catalogues under the cot at one end! And never lay him flat either.

I have a wedge pillow from mothercare that is nice and small but is great- I put it under him in the pram and under his moses basket mattress and stuff. He is still MEGA sickly at 9 weeks old though and has one ALMIGHTY vomit at least once a day- he's not being overfed or anything, he just has a weak digestive system still from being early. x

about 20mins upright, though I've seen on the boards other mums have done more or less so trial and error maybe! and its raised with a folded towel under it so not a massive amount, couple of inches? he is v happy in the day in his rocker/bouncer chair thing as it isn't lie flat so day naps are good :thumbup:

Hi everyone! Doing lots of reading and not posting as my one-handed typing isn't so good... Just been to local pub for lunch (just across the road) and sat in their lovely garden, J was very well behaved and slept through the whole of her first outing!

Yas - poor K and you, thats miserable :hugs:

Boobs are still ridiculous today, managed to saturate breast-pad/vest/nightie/pillow in the night - less than glamorous... Feeling very tearful and pathetic today, I'm guessing this is the baby blues?:shrug:

Stitches out yesterday, which wasn't so bad, but still having to put up with DH injecting me every day, he seems to enjoy it rather too much :growlmad:

J has dropped to 9lbs, which I understand isn't too bad for 5 days?
