Hi Lucy, how are you getting on? Did you get home ok with Ivan? I bet you cannot believe he's here. Hope you're getting plenty of rest as you will need it after everything our bodies go through.

Can't believe your wee rainbow is here!M


AM, how are you? Your bump looks lovely in the pictures! I took a pic yesterday so il try and log onto here through my iPhone and post it.

Are you still settled on Matteous? Maybe I've mis spelled that.

 

[Lucy529]

CMC unfortunetly we haven't been able to go home yet he needs to be able to drink a bottle at every feeding for 48 hrs he's starting to want to eat but not completely there yet hopefully soon. Until then we're stuck in the NICU

On a good note I talked to his drs and after they researched it am able to bf. Started pumping yest and all seems to be going well hoping to get a good supply going but I'm so happy I'm able to nourish my baby

 

[c.m.c]

That's great about the bf!!!! .....and I know you Won't think It now, but some extra time in hospital is sometimes good for you to get your energy back

Glad you're both getting on well!.,

 

[Lucy529]

CMC I know he needs it I just wish we were closer to home it's over an hour away, I've been here for over a week and I miss my hubby I'm exhausted bc I can barely sleep I hope he gets it's soon

[Amcolecchi]

Cmc- How are you doing?!!? I am 23 weeks today and I REALLY just want to hit the third trimester lol I just want to feel better that I am in the home stretch haha! You were close! It's Matteo but yep that's what we are sticking too and everyone is calling him that already, love it!!

Lucy-what is BF? and I am sorry you are so far away from home!! KMFX that you can be home before Christmas!!!

 

[c.m.c]

Hi AM


Bf is breast feeding


I am good! I'm 24weeks today!! I know what u mean, kinda wishing the weeks away too!!

Matteo is lovely....it so special to have that name bond before baby arrives it's lovely.

My hubby will not ever let me tell him what we are having so it's Finn or Scarlett....... But I'm almost gonna slip Scarlett out someday lol!! I hope we both agree and stay with that as we both like that name

 

[Amcolecchi]

CMC-oh haha I should of realized bf meant breast feeding! Thank you!! We really love the name too and so does the family!!! I love the names Finn and Scarlet!! YES how are you so good at keeping it?!!? I say he all the time lol I give you so much props for not slipping!!!

 

[c.m.c]

It was easier not slipping up with my dd1 but this time I feel like saying sister and she...it's very hard lol

 

[kaznib]

congrats on your handsome little man Lucy!!! well done!!!

 

[Lucy529]

Hi ladies sorry I haven't been around much, Ivan just came home yesterday so it's been hectic, since he's so small I had to scramble and buy preemie clothes which still fit him a little big but that's ok he'll grow.

You ladies are getting close can't wait to see more lo being born

 

[Amcolecchi]

Lucy-My friend had to do the same! Her baby was two weeks early but he was only 5 pounds so she had to find preemie outfits! But yes he will grow so quickly! I am glad you are home now resting! How is breastfeeding? I am planning on doing it but nervous at the same time!!

 

[c.m.c]

Great news that you're both home Lucy

 

[Lucy529]

He only weighs 4.12 so not even 5 lbs yet my hubby us still afraid of picking him up its hilarious but he'll get it together
Bf us not going so good my boss gave me a pump but the lady that had it keeps forgetting to give me the power cord, I can't get into WIC for one until next Friday and Ivan now refuses the boob, to top that off my milk has begun to dry up so I've tried hand expressing but it's not going good so we've been doing formula

 

[Amcolecchi]

Ouch hand expressing sounds awful. It's ok if you don't bf not every woman does it, and formula will make him gain weight faster which is good!

 

[Lucy529]

AM I wasn't going to do bf but after being taken of the meds that prevented me from it I thought I might as well try, but I won't be totally heart broken if I end up using formula I've had tons of experience with that at least I know I tried I might keep trying to get him to latch before our next apt on Monday for his 2 week check up if he's still joy wanting it then I'm just staying with formula. As long as he grows and is healthy that's most important and so far he's been great
