August ’07 Mums to be

Congratulations catrad and DH!

And then there were two (or maybe only one...? or none...?)

Are you still with us, Italiah? Chonni?

So, hows your prediction of going today, Italiah??!! Think it will come true?!

Yeah, I don't like those 'pain' cries...I got one last night...I was feeding Bella and she quickly pulled off my breast and a squirt of breast milk squirted her in the eye!! Oops, and she cried that horrible high pitched "I'm in pain" cry...I felt so bad!

I finally got around to putting a couple of pics in the photo gallery of Cooper.

Did she have a caesar, Italiah??

feeding is going much better.

He put on 220grams (I think!) in the two days so mw was happy for me to go back to exclusively bf as of yesterday morning.

I'm not feeling any let down of my milk, not that I would know what that feels like! But he is definitely swallowing alot more frequently so I know he's getting something.

That and sleeping for more than 3 hours at a time, so I know he must be full.

My boobs are definitely heavier though. And I don't know if this is common, but I'm sure I can feel them "re filling" for a few hours after I've fed Cooper. Does that sound weird???

Congratulations Catrad and DH.

Sparkle - glad to hear Cooper is feeding well.

Italiah - hope Gia is feeling better soon.

Poor little Gia, not fun!!! Hopefully it will come right soon.

I wish it was a nice day here, it's very Blah! I'm thinking of catching up on housework, not that I want too (and therefore are procrastinating on here!!!)

Cooper seems to want to feed every 2 hours since about 1030 last night. I'm happy to do it though, as I don't want him going backwards.

Going to try and go for another walk this afternoon. Fingers crossed the weather holds out!

I just remembered that I put a birth notice in the paper for today! I need to go and get the Herald before the corner dairy runs out! How do you do these things with a baby!!!

Do I put him in his pram? His sling? Just carry him???? Hope he wakes up soon.........did I just say that!!!!!!!

Yes it's 3:17am & I'm wide freakin awake! Have been since 12:45am. Woke to hear Gia crying & needed to go to the toilet so went, then as soon as i got back into bed I had painful cramping, then needed to get up & go #2's! Got back into bed AGAIN & was still having cramping. So i was thinking that I REALLY needed to get some sleep so was trying my hardest to get comfy again & drift off, but then another cramp would come. They stopped after an hour or so, but now I'm wide awake, so I've been up on the net, trying to tire myself out. I'm really hungry too, but can't be bothered getting up to make myself anything. Now I KNOW I'm going to be knackered tomorrow with the lack of sleep.

A couple more cramps have come & gone in the past few minutes, but I'm actually wishing them away just so I can get some sleep, cos I'm guessing this ISN'T labour, just another tease & I'd much rather be sleeping than being TEASED about labour!!!!
