Sounds great Mac!!!

We went for a walk today, feels so good to get out and exercise!! It was a ton of fun!

OMG I actually started feeling around my c-section scar today and felt a big lump on the left side. Im totally freaking out. My husband says it could just be the stuff she used to make sure it doesnt stick when it heals. What!? I dont believe that, its a lump the size of a large grape in there. Does anyone know what it could be? Thankfully I have my 2 week apt on Friday.

Anyone have too much breastmilk? Im literally choking my babygirl. I have tried to pump before to not make it as bad and she still chokes. I dont know what to do. Its also giving her air bubbles and gas because shes swallowing too hard. I was told the milk is supposed to regulate itself to her need of supply but alls my milk is doing is just over flowing.

What Bar said I do that and take Ryan off for a break! I have over supply as well my right boob leaks constantly BUT I know from experience it does sort it self out always has on my other babies oh and deffo do not pump makes it so much worse

There is so much noise and activity here in the day - thanks to Phoebe! hehe! Hopefully it is just the growth spurt and will be over soon.

Tiredness is the worst - it effects you in so many ways. Mentally and physically. This is definitely what I am finding the hardest!

Henderson, I am worried I have the opposite problem - I feed her on both breasts, sometimes half hr on each x 2 or 3 and still she wants more. I end up having to give a lil formula or expressed milk to make her content. And then when I pump I am lucky to get much more than an oz (and that is double pumping too!)

Lol xx

to be honest that sounds normal to be honest! I notice Ryan cluster feeds then settles for a while then repeats he goes longer at nights. but look at how much weight she is gaining she is doing great and it will get easier I promise.

Hey Ladies,

Sorry I have not been online forever. Isla is here! She was born on her due date (August 21)via home birth and we're both doing well. My Mom is still here with me and we've been really busy with visitors and adjusting to life with baby. So far I am loving being a Mom, its been an amazing experience.

Looking forward to catching up with everyone and learning more about your little ones. I'll try to get online tomorrow to post a few pics of our little lady!

Hope you're all doing well!

hughe congrats can not wait to see pictures

Hhenserson, congrats, she's beautiful!

Mrs Eddie: congrats on baby Isla!

I'm feeling overwhelmed. Mika is still fussing.. It's been 24 hours, I slept only 1 hour last night. In the last 2 hours, he's eaten twice... I really really hope it's just growth spurt (I read it lasts a couple of days), as I feel like I can't take it anymore. I feel like my head is gonna explode and I'm exhausted!

oh hun huge hugs he fully on bottles now is he!! normally babies on forumla settle better than that! is he crying a lot wonder is there something else going on hope you get some time to nap to day

I "pace" Henry on my breast as my let down is very fast. I take him off if I see him gulping or taking multiple sucks without breathing. It's the same as I did at work with bottle feeding.

I do that as well

6 days overdue

Hopes-its amazing how people think they are obligated to make comments regarding due dates and baby's gender if they are friends with you on Facebook.

DH and I DTD again last night, we are getting back into the groove. This week I hope to get started on my mission to become a MILF in the next 8 months. Granted I have to start off by walking, after a while I will get back into Zumba, BJJ and Mhuy Thai and weights. DH agreed that if I reach my goals I can get a new "mommy/MILF" wardrobe . I do need new clothes but don't want to get any as I am unhappy with my weight right now and need to loose some.

I am doing the same, I want to lose some weight just have to work out how much I can eat to lose weight and matain my supply
I want to start Zumba again as well when do you plan on starting that!

Babyhopes: must be annoying that people talk about it on FB!

Mac: I want to excercise already as well!

I want to be able to ... 2 more weeks to go! but one if my stitches still hurt when I sit

Celtic: feeling any better?

much better thanks did you get a chance to nap yet

I am feeling slightly nervous about DTD been so long

 

[pola17]

Yeah, I did nap a bit!

 

[bella21]

ladies what can i do for constipation? he did go last night at 1am and then not until 3pm today but he's still pushing and pushing so hard his face is turning red and then he cries until he goes down for a nap i tried a little warm water in a bottle and tried bicycling his legs but nothings working i feel so bad

 

[JenzyKY]

You can lift his legs and use a wipe and wipe him. Or take his temperature.

Congrats, Eddie!

So, Amelie's Guthrie test came back. She hasn't got cystic fibrosis she is a carrier though I have some specialist coming out onFriday with the health visitor on Friday to discuss what it all means.

Dragonfly- I know you said your son was a carrier. Is Myles too? did you have William tested too? I M very eager to have my boys tested now and also me and Daniel to find out where this has come from? Neither of us have ever had anything flagged up.

I am hugely relieved she doesn't have the disease but my mind is running riot with what if scenarios. I hope to get some peace after the home visit on Friday.

She has been very fussy today - I think she is picking up on my stressing!

 

[Mrs. Eddie]

Thanks everyone for the congrats! Bella that is so awesome that our babies share the same birthdays.

Mac, good for you for getting back into exercise; I'm sure you'll be a MILF in no time! I have been trying to take Isla out once a day for a walk, which does us both good I think. Starting next week I'll be going out with my neighbour and her baby a few times a week, which I am also looking forward to.

Angel, glad all is well with Amelie!

We had our two week appointment today and all looks good with Isla. She passed her hearing test and is over her birth weight (8 lbs)!

Celtic-I am starting tomorrow. I was a licensed Zumba instructor but when I was let go from my real job I couldn't pay the monthly dues so m not licensed anymore, but I still have all the music and the Kinnect game.

I would like to take the Raptor outside to walk but it has been in the upper 90s so way too hot for a baby. I need to wait until it cools down

 

[pola17]

Zumba is the #>$^. I loved it! I stopped once I got pregnant but I plan to go back to classes!
How awesome you're an instructor, Mac!!

 

[mac1979]

Pola-I just noticed your second ticker, you must be happy!!

 

[pola17]

You bet you bootie I am!

FREEDOM!!!!!!

On the 16th I'll host a celebration party in here!

 

[pola17]

Shhhhhh Mikael's sleeping!

[Barhanita]

Lena is asleep, I am extremely sleep deprived, but I cannot fall asleep. What do you do??

 

[mac1979]

Bar-I look at different threads here. It is a cruel cycle. Finally have time to sleep and you can't do it. I may pounce on DH when he comes to bed...

 

[Barhanita]

I tried to read a boring book - didn't help.. I even had a little bit of beer. And I am VERY tired, like never in my life. Little monster will wake up soon, and there goes the longest sleep stretch of the night. Then it will be 1-1.5 hours...

 

[pola17]

Try red wine, lavender oil, hot shower, warm glass of milk?

Hope you manage to sleep some!

 

[lolpants]

Sleep deprivation is the worst! I actually had good night but still feel shattered!

I plan on starting diet/exercise plan in new year - I have a lot to lose!!

Pola such cute pictures!! I would have a party if I was you too!

I have a friends bday meal on 17th. and was hoping to drink with my meal.. how long would you leave BF for afterwards? (I am only having 3-4 drinks)

Lol xx
