No sweep today, just an ultrasound. Tomorrow they're going to do a NST and hopefully a sweep. I'm going to ask for it. (AKA beg)

rashy - is that what u asked the admin about (making it private)? if so let me know they say

Yep! We'll see! I know it's possible with this format of bulletin board, just not sure if they're inclined to do it.

Love the idea of making the new thread private as I'm a bit wary of putting names and pics up for anyone to see and having real life friends possibly find me on here (hence not giving out my facebook to you lads, unfortunately). Hope it's possible!!

 

[MsCrow]

Love the new thread, but sad to leave this one at some point too. Can we put a request to have them merged over to the new board?

Waula, and anyone breastfeeding, these links will be useful. I'm trying the biological nurturing thing this evening and its more comfortable for both of us. She's screaming the house down now but I need to cram in dinner and go back. It's a growth spurt and I know it'll pass.

https://www.biologicalnurturing.com/ - for mums with the video explains it. It was suggested to me by a good friend who set up a breastfeeding cafe and by a lactation consultant I spoke to today to ask why Edith was feeding for so long and hating all the wrestling that goes on with the prescribed 'holds'.

MsC, that sounds a lot like the book I've been reading... here's the website for that: https://www.breastfeedingmadesimple.com/index-home.html

whoooooooooohoooooooooooooo!

My DH has been offered the job he went for last week! Its about the same pay but its in our little town - which is just perfect. He can literally walk or ride there and we can meet for lunch Brill news

In other news.... no baby signs... and im afraid im now getting impatient, simply because im sick of people asking and also cos DH is chomping at the bit

come on digs....... lol....

 

[mitchnorm]

I am home!!!!!!

But have a really quick silly question for all......i want Mia to eventually get herself to.sleep in moses basket/cot etc but now should i be allowing her to sleep on me between feeds?? I dobt want to.get herinto 'bad' habits but am i expecting too much should i be sat here eatiing my.pizza with her asleep in my arms???? Thank you x x x

 

[lozza1uk]

Congrats Mr FT!! That'll be handy!

Hi Mitch! Must be great to be home. No idea about sleeping but guess you'll have to put her in the Moses basket tonight unless you plan on sitting up forever! My friends little boy used to sleep on her husband between feeds and I know he sleeps ok now (he's 5 months). I don't know her well enough to know whether it took a while to get there or not though. Sorry, that's a ramble not advice!

 

[MsCrow]

Mitch, she'll be fine. Change, feed and pop her down to sleep.

 

[citymouse]

Welcome home, Mitch! No idea except that everything I've read says babies don't form a routine this early, so do what feels right/works at the moment without worrying about long-term effects.

That's great, FT! Your DH will love being able to see more of you and Digs!

 

[mitchnorm]

Just feel a little bad...she is only 2 days old. Been in her basket for about an hour and isnt sleeping but not crying just grubbling. She doesnt seem to want to sleep as much as i thought she would

 

[firsttimer1]

mitch

i know im not a mum (GAHHHHHH) but one thing i did learn from my studies is that its impossible for babies that young to form any sense of routine etc.... so dont try to introduce structure etc yet - just go with the flow will be nicer for you...and baby...

 

[citymouse]

Mitch, do you have a Sleep Sheep or any kind of white noise machine? Something like that might help her to settle.

 

[mitchnorm]

We have a winnie the pooh thing...lights up dimly and plays little tunes. Maybe that tonight.

God books really do not help. She is soooo adorable though....love her too much x x

 

[firsttimer1]

try your white noise thing hunni
