@atx614 hot hot hot here too! Fully vaccinated though, so fairly safe to go where I want! Just thinking I might go get some lunch somewhere ...last time I had no mat leave before baby arrived, and this time I almost feel guilty for the time! I know it's ridiculous, but I feel like I could be working, therefore seems wrong to be off!
September 2021 due date babies!!!

And my waters didn't go, so no embarrassment today! ...achey back tonight, but that's probably the heat! Went into next, and they have so many cute sleep suits at the moment, I was very good and didn't buy any! Said to oh I will go back and buy one once baby is born and I know what size she is!

Baby discharged from midwife care but I'm not, got to go back next week as I'm bleeding a lot (it had stopped but came back quite suddenly) so there's a slight worry I might have some retained placenta. Hope not as the D&C is not my idea of a relaxing post-section recovery activity(!)
Though I think I'm just overdoing it tbh. Mad how they tell you to get on your feet and walk about to prevent blood clots and speed up healing - but then they tell you to rest up to prevent excessive bleeding! Can't bloody win

@Suggerhoney totally normal for them to loose up to a pound until your milk comes in. Now that your milk is coming in I bet he starts gaining.
@LoneWanderer ugh I’m so sorry you are bleeding a lot. Hopefully it calms down when you rest up

Oh hon I wish that was the case but I'm not breastfeeding because I can't becuase of my immunesuppresent medication.
So he is formula fed.
They said it may be a case that he's just not a very hungry baby. We just don't want him to lose anymore. He's so teeny tiny.
So glad I mainly packed tiny baby stuff becuase the first size stuff is absolutely massive on him. Tiny baby fits him best but still big.
Tiny baby is up to 6lb 6oz
First size is up to 9lb then after that it's 0-3.
I did pack a few first size because I thought he was gonna be over 8lbs so I just packed it incase.
Buts it's absolutely massive on him in length and wipth.
Oh well least I got plenty of bits he can grow into now and i guess I get to keep him as a baby for longer becuase he's smaller but I'm a bit worried.
Let's just hope he doesn't lose anymore because if he does they said it cud mean there is a problems.
But if he gains even just a tiny bit it means he's just not a very hungry baby. Hope it's that.

So there gonna weigh Harley again tonight and providing he hasn't lost any more weight then we can probably go home tomorrow. He drank over half a bottle this morning so hopefully he keeps that up all day. Just took this of him.
4 days old 6lbs 6oz. Got his little teddies in there. That mouse is only the size of a finger but looks bigger in photo. We used it with Tommy too for first photos but not had the womon that does the photos come around this time.
Never mind will be taking plenty myself.
Can't get enough of this little man. He is such s chilled good baby. Feeling so incredibly blessed. He was worth all the pain.
Harley-Oliver. 4 days old. 6lbs 6oz

He’s so gorgeous hun!
So I have masistis. I’m in so much pain I ache and yeah.
Gonna push for her tie to be snipped today as I suspect the tie prevents a deeper latch which has caused this. Just waiting on oh to finish his work call and see if he’ll nip and get my anti biotics for me or keep baby so o can do the quick 10mi. Run

Oh that sucks! Get the antibiotics in ASAP. I found it helped to do a double dose soon as they arrived and then follow the schedule after that - and lots of warm showers while massaging the clog out too. It's rough though, I feel your pain! Not happened to me yet this time but I expect its round the corner as I dont feed, just express for bottles, so hard to always get everything out. Hope you feel better very soon - and hope the procedure sorts that tie out too!

This little weirdo actually slept through last night - 11pm to 5am - like what the fuck?! Had to wake him and force food in otherwise I think he would have gone til actual morning. He was taking full bottles every 90 mins before bed though so not too concerned, it's like he crams the whole night's food into a few hours then sleeps it off!

@Suggerhoney im glad he took the whole 4iz bottle! Hopefully he gains when they way him this evening so y’all can go home. He is so precious! Love the pics!
@Bittersweet ouch! I’m so sorry! I had it with my son and I pumped a lot and that helped! Also used a heating pad and, ahem a vibrator lol. I know it sounds weird lol, but just put the vibrator on your breast and it works it out. Once my son had his tongue tie clipped he could latch much better, but I waited so long until 6 months and I was just so done breastfeeding then so didn’t get to experience the good latch really. So I am glad you will get it clipped early.
@LoneWanderer omg so jealous he is sleeping through the night already. That is amazing!! Has your bleeding lightened up any?

Thank you hun they snipped it so that’s helpful and showed me the koala position so il be keeping that up. I was using a haakaa pump and she said to lay off jist now and use my electric as electric stimulates a feed whereas haakaa just sucks basically so over stimulating the breast.
I feel so cold and flu like it’s awful! Gonna chill on sofa maybe get an hour nap in before she wakes for another feed

Urgh so like three days ago I passed what I would swear was my mucus plug, like a slimy yellow lump, and then today the same except it was bloody and like really thick jelly. Just like my last show. Weirdness eh?
Some bleeding still but nothing too alarming, still would rather it wrapped itself up. Supposed to be going to an evening do for friend's wedding tonight, taking baby (other half and toddler did the whole day but no way I can face it), anyway I dunno if I can be arsed given that doing too much seems to set me off again.
