Awwww Misse I hope it happens soon!!

I bathed little one yesterday but cord not off yet , sitting waiting for midwife to come

Had to co sleep last night as he just struggles to settle an would fed either just played with nipples , crying for food but would latch jut lick an muzzle , after struggling for ages he eventually latched but then didn't stay on long an the. Woke up so quick after it so in his room folded out futon an got him to latch while lying down an that is where we stayed for 4 hours do I atleast got some rest

He doesn't like sleeping anywhere car seat gets few hours Moses basket gets nothing uses I pad it up with pillows he struggles with wind an been sick a few times to poor bug

 

[molly85]

the middle looks horrible but washed it, dried it with a cotton wool pad and left it as the nappy excess covers it that can soak up any excess gunk and the bottom is sealed off.

Hoew was the lactation nurse?

 

[Mosnippy]

Pooo side thought already lost 11 kgs of baby weight got 8 to go lol whoop whoop

So just over a stone to go nearly lost 2 stone of weight

 

[Mosnippy]

I meant ooooo damn autocorrect on phone an one hand typing

 

[molly85]

Mo you'll be disgusted I am 1.5kg off my booking weight of 87kg. much weight to loose going to be a good girl and try and drop the last bit by next wed. then I'm aiming for a kilo a week until my b-day at least so i can have a new wardrobe!

 

[Mosnippy]

That's fab !!! How much did you pick up during pregnancy?

I am well impressed withine 5 days not bad

 

[molly85]

Now i am baffled if i can't understand the message or if your spell checkers gone nuts?

Duh it's me

ummmm 8kg from booking appointment but I managed to loose about 5kg at one point in fluids from the vomiting at 17 weeks it did all go back on though by 30 weeks

 

[kmbabycrazy]

I put on about 2 stone when pregnant and not suprisngly considering her wait I've lost pretty much all of it. Just a couple of pounds to go lol. Little miss is whinging and I think she wants feeding but I'm dreading it. My nipples are so sore last time i feed her there was a little blood on her mouth. . LC said positioning was wrong and I think things are better for her a little as shes not taking as long to feed but shes still struggling latching, she won't take my left side and it's still agony for me. I just dread every feed and I feel so sorry for Toby. I haven't been able to take him to bed since we had her as she feeds at his bedtime. So I have to read him a story downstairs and he takes himself to bed. I'm not very comfortable leaving the house so we can't do anything. She said it will get better after the first 6 weeks or so...great so just about the time Toby starts school!?!

I'm giving it one last shot today. If I don't feel any better by this evening we're off to the shop to get some formula...gutted i'm not getting it but just don't think breastfeeding suits us. Yes I know it's what's best for her but just don't think it's what's best for us as a family x

 

[molly85]

your poor nips and that nurse did not sound the most useful 6 weeks christ! def do whats best for you. I know 1 of my friends bf'd by dead formula'd by night that worked really well if you want to and can keep going when you've healed. Hugs message me if you just want a chat at any time i'm on my laptop loads at the moment

 

[Mosnippy]

Aw km I am in the same boat as you at the moment he just been on me constantly since yesterday every half hour so far he is on me, doesn't settle etc I'm so tired an emotional an oh is feeling so frustrated an useless, still waiting for midwife I can't keep doing this every half hour thing I have cold sore as am so run down which upsets me cause have to be so careful not to give to little one so can't give him kisses which frustrates me

Going to express as I have plenty milk an see if he will bottle feed to give me a break in between so other half can have him while I rest

Ohhh do much hard work

 

[kmbabycrazy]

Yeah we're bottle feeding. Tried to put her to my breast to feed. One suck and I was screaming and in tears...AGONY!!! It was SO painful I felt like I'd been stabbed!!

LC just been though and she was dead nice about me wanting to go on to bottles. Think she was a bit worried about me though. She kept asking if I felt okay in myself, was I sure with a look of concern on her face. I am of course gutted that I am giving up but I think it's what is best for us and I feel proud that I at least tried. I lasted almost as long as with Toby and the reasons I gave up with Toby were far more selfish and mainly due to exhaustion and lack of support. This time we have both struggled and I just don't feel like a mother to Toby when I'm feeding. At least now if she needs feeding at Toby's bed time Baz can do it. And I feel like I can sort some things out and much more confident about leaving the house. I was also probably tear stained from the recent attempt to latch lol.

I have a couple of friends who are avid breastfeeders though and I'm proper worried they'll judge me and not understand!!

 

[Mosnippy]

I am not a happy girl!

I have to go to triage looks like I might have blood clot in leg ;( midwives have ordered me off to there an probably be in for night just what I need when I am so tired an emotional

 

[molly85]

oh nooo Mosnippy hope your all ok, never know you might get some nice midwife who will hold George for you so you can get an hour or so sleep.

KMB though I'm cheering for bfing its purley for the no washing up and sterilising aspect you send any grumps my way i put a good few doubting Thomas's in their place with Abby some times BFing is just not healthy for baby or mum let alone the whole family.

 

[misse04]

Your all making me sick with your talk of weight loss while I continue to get fatter by the second plus I swear I get a new stretch Mark every hour!

Don't worry too much KM there's no point if neither of you are happy it won't benefit anyone

Hope you get sorted and everything is ok MOs
