Hey MTA just to warn you; Laura was a quick delivery and was full of mucus too, she was very quiet, slept lots and didnt feed much in the first few days but she soon woke up and boy did she catch up with her feeds!!!!!
Hope you're all well, great thread idea x

mummytoamber, CongratulationsIm glad Hollie is so good, How are you feeling? How has Amber taken to Hollie?
Congrats to you also.
I feel pretty good, think all because ive getting the sleep first few nights, been really important. With amber i was a pure wreck by day 4 due to lack of sleep. She was taken to her, fantastic. No problems have occured yet.
How is it going with you?

She had a bit of a bad night not last night but night before, probably got sleep around 3am.
Last night after more food through the night but still slept fine, but yes i can say her feeding is picking up.
Hows Laura's sleeping and feeding now?

Laura's doing great now, we had a rough few nights after her "quiet period" which lasted about 3-4 days I'd say. She did seem to suffer with her wind too though so we're using infacol now which is great stuff!
She's great at enteraining herself, she seems so content and will go to anyone.

I can't think of any thing worse than sex at the moment! 
I have finished bleeding more or less, but I am happy to wait.
Noah is doing well too. I am feeding him myself,but giving a bottle at night. Last night he slept 11 - 2.30 3-6 then 6 till 9am so very pleased with him!! He is quite happy to lay and chill just looking around during the day which is nice.
Glad all the babies are doing well!

Hey ladies Could not find the thread anywhere lol
Hope everyone's ok and enjoying their LO's !! And for those still waiting They are definately worth the wait!!
Have to take Matthew to Hospital today to get his hearing screening test repeated in his left ear because it was still mucusy at the hospital when he was born! Hopefully s'all good...i worry about everything!
MummytoAmber thats great that Hollie's put on weight! I have a little monster muncher... He went from 7pound15 to 7pound15.5 overnight then two days later when he got weighed he was 8pound5!!!!!!!!!!!:O:O so he put on 5 and a half ounzes in two days! Dreading tomorrow to see how much he weighs
Hmmm...im currently feeding Matthew on SMA gold....but he's chugging his bottles he's regularly drinking 5-6.5 ounces!!! Then an hour or so later he drinks another ounce then again another hour later type thing. Its madness! Think im gonna have to change him to SMA white..but not sure!?
Other than that being a mummy is great im loving every second and matthew is so good and content so far!Other than being greedy! He's sleeping really well and so far only wakes me once around 4am ish then again in the morning type thing! Last night he slept from around 11.40pm to 4am then from 4.40am to just before 9am! And the night before he slept from 1.30am until 7am!

Hello ladies, hope we're all ok and excited for Santa's visit
Laura has put on weight too, she's now 8lb 10oz, she'll soon be too big for her newborn clothes and into 0-3 months bless her. Where's my baby gone? lol.
MTA - I have found I am more interested in BD now but I'm still not fully healed downstairs so it wasn't a pleasant experience when we tried 2 days ago, had to get DH to stop
getting fed up now !!

hey guys, hows everyone,
Im finding settling her at nighttime quite hard, shes so good during the day, sleeps feeds sleeps feeds then soon as its night she is awake and wont settle, Im still really ill and spike'd another temp today but i refuse to go back to hospital. They made me feel worse. Apart from that shes so good, any ideas how i can get her to settle a bit better at night or should i just leave her to be awake untill she does it herself?her jaundice is going tho.
