We made the trimesters pass quickly!

Swt my girls adore Frazer.
Suzy, hope riya's reflux goes soon.
Get well soon Amy.

Good luck beckii xx
 
Yay! Beckii I hope you not waiting much longer :)

Aww amy that sounds like an infection, can your midwife not help? Xx
 
Henry spends so much time asleep at the boob too, I try about ten times to finish the feed because I'm sure he is finished And He'll start up again

What do you do to wake him? I've tried everything, tickling, using a wet towel, blowing on him, and feeding him in just his diaper, nothing makes this little guy stay awake. I can't get a single thing done because he sleeps on me all day while trying to feed him. If I put him down he wakes and cries until I pick him back up only to root again to feed. He's only feeding at most 5 to 10 mins. I'm worried about my supply going down, should I try and pump or keep changing his diaper to wake him every hour or so?
 
My infection got so bad I'm now in hospital on drips. I have to stay for 48 hours. I'm a total mess. I want to be home with my new baby :cry:

Oh no Amy, I'm sorry you ended up with an infection. I'm glad you went and got checked out to be treated. I'm surprised you were allowed to go home so early after having the section. I had to stay in hospital for 4 days and have my incision checked twice a day. I hope you get better real soon so you can get back to cuddles with your kiddos :hugs:
 
O Amy I'm sorry :hugs:

Pink Tristan loves Elijah, always kissing and cuddling him. We had a few rough days to begin with but he was more angry with me and Hubby.

Beckii good luck!!
 
Omg Amy. Sorry to hear that you are in hospital. Are you not allowed Archie in with you?
Hope you get better soon xx
 
Pink, have you tried putting him in a wrap/carrier? Xx

I try the tickling his feet or back of neck, also try and move my boob a bit and he Sometimes wakes. I might be doing it completely wrong but sometimes he is asleep but still sucking and I think swallowing so I leave him on there. Like I said though I might be doing it wrong. I am plagued with daily concerns and worries that I am feeding him wrong

Amy I really hope you feel better soon and are back with your baby soon.

I am really struggling to get Henry yo bring wind up and he keeps being sick today :( also are any of your babies really noisy breathers? Is it normal?
 
Pink, is he gaining weight?

Mummy that's terrible :( someone was telling me her sister got an infection after all 3 of her sections... Think I've been lucky. I'd be demanding baby in with me I have to say....
 
0203 I could have written your post myself!
Lucy doesn't bring up wind until it's too late and she's been sick. I also leave her on while she's sleeping and drinking and she eventually unlatches herself.
I've just messaged my friend whose a breastfeeding support worker about my bleeding nipples xx
 
Glad I am not the only one who does it, I keep reminding myself that he is gaining weight and has all the right nappies so I must be do if something right. At nearly every feed I am worrying. I feel awful because physically I've found breastfeeding easy but I am struggling emotionally.

The only thing I know about bleeding nipples carly is that if the babies spit up has blood in it don't worry, they can't digest that milk and the blood came from you and not them. I hope you are less sore soon!

Mummas of boys can I have nappy changing tips, getting weed on at every nappy change is getting boring now! I put something over him but he still manages to soak himself/me. One time he managed to get a pile of clean washing :haha: I can laugh about it now!
 
^^ wss.
I've been pee'd on twice already xx
 
I don't have a carrier yet, DH wouldn't get one because London hasn't met the weight requirement yet. He has been gaining on schedule but that was when I was mostly giving him EBM in a bottle. He hasn't been weighed since I've been mostly nursing. He does have plenty of wet and poopy diapers, although today he's only had 2 poops so far. His Dr says that's okay.
 
I'm sorry, I just lol every time I read about getting peed on. I usually catch him before he can get me, I put a wipe over his wee and then clean him with the other hand. He usually gets DH everytime. It's hilarious. Now I have to deal with him passing gas while changing him and hoping he doesn't poop on me.
 
I posted earlier but for some reason it didn't send.

Aimee-Jo was born at 9:17 weighing 8lbs 15oz! I was only pushing for 12 minutes but had contractions up until that point. I have been transfered to st micheals because of my blood loss, I'm on a drip and have a dreaded catheter. She's taken to BF straight away too x
 
I am allowed baby in but I couldn't physically look after him I've never experienced as much pain in my life, I wouldn't wish this on anyone. I've been sick so many times but it's just bile as I can't eat. Absolutly awful.

Beckki huge congratulations darling I knew this was it for you, can't wait to see photos xxxx
 
Congratulations beckii. Hope you are better soon xx

Amy, hope you are better soon. Must be horrible being away from your 2 babies xx
