Come on sprout!!

Goodness me my boy has a pair of lungs on him!!
Had the moment I was dreading post birth.... The first poo and it felt so strange, but not too painful!! I had no prelabour clearout so I knew I wouldn't be waiting long!! xx

Wow loads of new May babies! Congratulations to you all.

Wild I've hardly slept either - I just can't get comfortable.
Nothing further to report - loads of BHs but that's it.

 

[wild2011]

span, hopefully not long for us, ne time soon would be nice me thinks! x

24- glad it wasnt a traumatic experience, hows feeding going for u hun, does he settle for long for you? x

 

[24/7]

He is settled now, but is very windy and is struggling to bring it up and we have had hours of screaming, he was having an ounce every three hours, but nothing since about 11 now and not really sure if he would let us know if he wanted more? MW said he was over feeding which was causing the screaming?! xx

 

[wild2011]

is she saying an ounce every 3 hours is over feeding????

i know they dont always take alot in the first few days, and ive always bf during the first weeks, so the whole ammount will be new to me this time too,

i know my bf bubs is taking 1 ounce ish every 2-3 hours and they were moaning it wasnt really enough. ( are u struggling to get the wind up, ive had to wind all of mine differently as they were little monkeys and what worked for one didnt work for another x

 

[wild2011]

thats quite a long time from 11, id get him on some more x

 

[24/7]

We have tried sitting him up, over shoulder and laying along our arm, have you got any other good tips wild?

Will see of he is hungry when he next wakes up, ot does seem strange advice even to me xx

 

[wild2011]

just checked with bf and guidelines ( take with pinch of salt) 3.5 ounce roughly 6 feeds in 24 hours) she said wen lo manages to take 2 ounce or a little over in 3 hours its a good feed! lol

over ur leg hun, lie him across it on his tummy, roll the palm of ur hand over his lower back, thats the one i used with sienna, she would not budge it any other way. ;hugs:

over ur shoulder, too

with the sat on ur knee type position though u really need ot straighten the back up ( i hated it felt like i was forcing bubs upright, but the wind would normally fly up,

some babies however are just a nightmare to wind, ull soon find a position htta works superbly for u . xx

 

[24/7]

Thanks wild, will try legs after this feed. xx

 

[wild2011]

let us know how u get on x

 

[24/7]

He had half an ounce and then winded him and got one burp, another half an ounce and one burp and a fart!!
I did almost 30 mins of winding andante has now crashed on my legs in his vest and beloved dummy and hand holding xx

 

[wild2011]

good boy! x

 

[24/7]

And for the first time, I picked him up and popped him in the pram and no screaming and he settled straight back down to sleep. Thanks wild, long may this last!! xx

 

[wild2011]

sounds promising! i keep reading birht stories, and i must stop, its making me want sprout. lol

 

[24/7]

It lasted about two mins.... Enjoy the last few weeks of peace, lol xx

 

[wild2011]
