Hi all, just been trying to catch up, think I'm there now...
Jake's got a bit of colic, so he's had his first trip to the doctors, just to make sure that's all it was. We had an emergency dash trying to find a 24 hours chemist on Sunday night to get some infacol - typical that it would be the only time that usually 24 hour supermarkets aren't open! He seems to be ok during th day now but wouldn't sleep until 1am this morning, I'm knackered!
Flower - a wedding, how lovely, congratulations to you both.
Chuck - Sorry your hubby isn't being more understanding, men have some weird ideas about childbirth I think. My DH readily admits that the human race would have died out years ago if it was men that had to go through the whole pregnancy/childbirth/breastfeeding thing but he's the opposite of your DH, doesn't understand why anyone would choose to have a c-section. He thought this before but think I've spoilt him by having a straight forward birth.
Is there anyone else you could talk to who would be more supportive? Family member or friend or someone?
Hope all the babies' colds get better soon. It's horrible when they're ill isn't it cos they don't understand why it hurts, and get so upset, Jake does with his colic anyway, it's heartbreaking that you can't do anything.
No idea how much he weighs as HV turned up without any scales last week, think she's a bit useless to be honest, she just seems really wishy washy, like she doesn't really know what she's doing. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt though and see what she's like on Friday. He's def got bigger though, the clothes that fit him when he was born seem too short in the legs now.
