Hey ladies. Sorry I haven't been on to update. 
baby is great 17days old today. Things are hectic at my house. I'm waiting for my inlaws to leave. Which they'll be leaving Sunday morning. It's 2:30am and baby just finished eating so I'm going to put her back to bed and go to sleep myself, but I promise to catch up and give a "real" update by the beginning of the week.
Congrats to all you ladies and you're cute bundles.

I hope everyone else isn't kept waiting to long! We'll all be holding our LO's soon. I cry just thinking about it... We've come so far from April/May.

It is 4am and my baby is nursing. Violet gave mommy 3 hrs of uninterrupted sleep tonight! It doesn't sound like much, but a block that long feels so good! Here's hoping I can get another block of sleep after her feed.

I think that must be how long it takes to go through a whole sleep cycle & get some real deep sleep. Fingers crossed you get another good block!

Hi everyone, well after 18 hours of contraction 3-5 mins apart, I only managed to dilate 2 cm! So they did the section as planned and we got anther boy! Born at 10.17 this morning, weight was 8lb 11.5!!!!!! He won't latch on yet, but still persevering! And he's cute as hell !!!!!!!!

Congratulations! Holy cuteness!
Congrats Melly!! He sure is a cutie!
Snow - glad to hear from you. I was wondering what was going on with you.
I am so frustrated right now. I didn't get to go to bed until 7 ... THIS MORNING! Don't get me wrong, I am very real about no sleep when the baby comes but something I ate has upset her stomach so she is constantly squirting out something that I need to change.
I feel so bad for her because her tiny little bottom is so raw. To make things worse, she is refusing the breast. I don't know what triggered it but she will latch on and then pull off and fuss and cry and then latch back on and do this over and over. At 5 am I finally had to give her a bottle because she was so frustrated she wasn't even trying to latch, just scream. I just had to give her another bottle of formula from the hospital because of the same problem. My right breast had leaked so much, the entire front of my shirt was soaked to the point I could actually wring out some of the milk. When I put my nipple in her mouth, it was spilling out so I have no idea why she wouldn't take it. She is sleeping soundly now but I'm about at tears. Also, since I only went to bed at 7, my poor oldest daughter got up at 8:30 and I got up and went to feed Chloe, then I fell asleep in the chair with her. Lexi (oldest) didn't get breakfast. I woke up at 11:30 trying to figure out what the heck happened. Now she is refusing to eat lunch. I feel like I am failing at taking care of both of them. I know I've said this to others that formula is fine but I still have that same feeling when bf'ing starts failing when it was working just fine. To make matters worse, my feet have continued to swell. It feels like I can hardly walk on them. My bleeding has also seemed to pick back up. I'm not sure why. It was almost gone when I was in the hospital and now it is back with a vengeance. 
Do any of you have any suggestions about ... all of this??? The refusing to nurse, the swelling and the bleeding. I think I may go have myself a cry.
