Finally got a chance to catch up with this thread! Great to see all the new mums in here, can't believe we're all having our babies now!

Stanley is 3 weeks old today. We are still managing to exclusively bf, think he's on a growth spurt as he seems to be feeding every 2 hours today which is wearing me out a bit. Luckily, he does seem to sleep well after a feed, goes down for about 90 minutes - 2 hours during the day, a bit longer at night, maybe 3 hours if I'm lucky!

Had to take him to GP on Thursday as he's very red and sore just around his bum-hole. It's apparently developed into thrush so I am using Canesten cream on it. Breaks my heart to keep changing him as it is obviously hurting him. Supposed to give him lots of nappy free time but he wees and poos so much it's hardly worth it, I am just constantly cleaning him up, and he HATES having his nappy off too. Really hoping it clears up soon. Anyone else having nappy rash issues or is it just me?

Marinewife101 - sorry to hear you're having problems putting Michael down at night. Does he not fall asleep when on the boob? I have stopped nursing in bed because I've fallen asleep a couple of times - now I go into another room now with the radio on just so I can stay awake longer than him! When he's got all sleepy on the boob he is much easier to put down without a struggle.

he falls asleep nursing yes.. i moved to another room last night for his middle of the night feed seemed to work a lil better but every-time i lay down he things hes getting BOOB lol

Oh dear, I thought I'd got over the emotional crying stage but was just winding Erin and she was squirming and complaining, as she does. OH looked over and said 'stop upsetting my baby' in a totally jokey way- I just burst into tears!

Aw DF u made it! He is lovely, big congratulations to you!!

[blkhairbeauty]

with the whole falling asleep nursing problem, i kinda rub Maddy's back or her feet and it helps her not to fall asleep.

For constipation i gave Maddy 1 oz of prune juice and 1 oz water mixed and it seemed to help her. Also for thanksgiving i had cream pies and that was a big no no, lo was restless with a tummy ache for the past 3 days thankfully she is better now

DF, he is gorgeous, like i said on facebook....can we have our children get married? lol

Oi is my son not gorgeous enough for maddie

 

[SilasLove]

I am officially joining the parent's thead. I haven't been able to get on the internet so I haven't posted here yet! Kind of crazy, considering Madelyn is already 3 weeks old!

I have finally gotten a computer, so hopefully I will be able to get on more and stay in touch now.

Miss Madelyn is doing very well now, after a rough start. She lost 7 oz in the first week after she was born, and it was a pretty big issue with her doctor. But on her last weigh-in she had reached 7lbs 1.6oz, so that was great since she exceeded her birth weight.

DF, Alexander is a totally cutie pie! Congrats again.

 

[SilasLove]

DF - Alexander is simply gorgeous! You and Darren definitely make beautiful babies.

 

[SilasLove]

Ok, so here are some pictures of Madelyn (and a sneak peak of Joseph, lol).

Congratulations to all those new mummies and sparkler babies

Does anyone else still have their overhang from their section? (I don't know if the ladies with natural deliveries get it?) I keep looking down at mine, and although it is nowhere near as bad as it was, and I can fit back in pre-bump jeans, this old ladies floppy tummy is grossing me out...will it ever go away?
