[- Butterfly -]

yer tried squeezing, nothing

You will get it after bubs is born then, some people don't get it until after, it won't affect your chances of BFing

Bubs will be back to back or to the side then, stay tilting forward as much as possible because the gravity will pull bubs around the right way xxx

Was meant to go tonight with my parents as dh has hisnwork Xmas do but roads are too bad to go as they have a 30 mile trip to mine so I'm now stuck home alone with a sleepy puppy

I didn't leak at all before having Ailsa, would get a few drops of colustrum if I squeezed them but hardly anything at all! I tried bf her but she was really unsettled that first night and just wanted to feed constantly so after about 36 hrs I started bottle feeding her instead and I obviously didn't really have any milk cause I still haven't really leaked (I noticed a small dry patch on my pjs one morning and the same again on my bra one evening and thats been it) and I've not needed breast pads at all. My boobs did go hard and felt quite bruised a week ago but now they're pretty much back to normal. So I know i've made the right decision. I didn't seem to have much milk with DS either and the extra blood loss I sustained with Ailsa didn't help my chances of successfully breast feeding this time.

Cheesey pasta done, Flubber on all set for a lonely night in wish I hadn't let dh talk me into having the sweet Thai chilli sensations earlier

I'm going to have to go to the shop for chocolate, OH said he would get me some but he won't be back for a couple of hours and I can't wait that long Giant mint aero for me!

LO has been unusually quiet today, she keeps nudging me to let me know she's ok but she's normally all over the place.

Must stop getting excited about possible labour signs, it's only prolonging the torture xx

I'd pause Flubber and walk to the shop as it's only 3 mins walk away but there's nowhere tie rox up so I shall go without more

OMG OMG OMG!!!!!! LOOOOOOVE getting up to dreamer baby news and now the twins are here! whoop! congrats nat!!! such lovely weights and names!

hope you have a good recovery and get out with them soon!

guess they didn't want to wait to share their birthday with my last work day. although.... there is still like a 0.05% chance that today might be my last work day IF my baby decides to come... which is sooooo not going to happen

gonna read back on today's news in a minute.

sorry to hear about your failed appointment yesterday kerri! that is just very frustrating. FX'd for you that LO will come on its own now before you can get a new appointment.

my MW appointment was okay yesterday. it did however bring negative thoughts to my mind. maybe i was a little naive, but i really hadn't thought about the possibility of an induction and that's what we talked about yesterday. baby was not very low, but not very high either and MW just told me how things will go once i go overdue. with 41 weeks they will do a bio-physical exam (nonstress test & ultrasound) and with 41.5 weeks she said they will likely induce... having to be induced will mean a lot of extra $$$ out of my pocket that i don't have, as i would have to go to the hospital then and don't have insurance to cover that. plus i'm so comfortable in my birth center environment now. i have not set foot into a hospital down here & the thought of PIT dripping into me or the need of an epidural or section just freak me out tbh. of course i had thought about how it'll be when baby will get stuck or labor not progress while in the birth center and i would have to transfer to the hospital to not put her or me at risk, but somehow that thinking was different. well, lots of praying she'll come out before then!

also MW told me i'm supposed to have somebody stay with me for three days postpartum. now i already know that that's not going to happen. even if my parents make it on time and will be here, they are staying in a hotel about 25 min away and they might come over for a couple of hours each day, but not stay during the night and my friend has to work, so that's going to be interesting.

well, positive thoughts up and it'll all work out somehow. maybe i'll finally knock on neighbors door and make use of their offer of helping me if i need help with anything.

Shes doing fine thanks kerri, breastfeeding is hit and miss. Still need to use a nipple shield and because she was being bottle fed in special care when my milk came in i can feed her for two hours and shes still hungry so shes getting topped up with a bottle.

Rox isn't finding Flubber interesting

What do we think, any difference?
