Hi all, up doing a feed! However I can't complain Morgan just slept for 4 hours straight in his Moses basket & I crashed out in my bed. inhavent had 4 hours straight sleep in what seems like forever.
Oh my Erithiel how lush! enjoy your time away and safe journey there 😬 You'll be fine!✈️☀️
Danielle i know you had my works address, I'm venturing over there today with Morgan as there are a few gifts there for us so I shall keep you posted!❤️ I'm excited for this!😍
Beautiful pictures Gixxer Jordanna is looking very fashionable.. I do have kept Morgan in sleepsuites.. tomorrow we are going for our first outing alone so I'm going to dress the little dude up! I hope you're feeling much better now Gixxers!
chlooepee jordanna has a wardrobe full of clothes 🙈 We had to go out yesterday and buy her sleep suits as she had next to none lol. Don't know how it was possible lol. I blame my mum as she totally threw me off by buying loads of clothes to let me n dad concentrate on cribs, cots & Prams lol xxx
sorry to ready some of the Ed have colic and not been well! What a shame!!!!
hows everyone been feeling emotionally??
I had to give up breastfeeding film tkme. Viviana was 6lb 1oz when she was born then went down to 5lb in 4 days so we got admittee back to hospital absolutely I was advised to bottle and breastfeed.. my milk just di come in for some reason. I was hooked up to two breast pumps and told to expres every two hours but they had to give her a bottle as they said she would literally starve
I give her bottles and let her latch on afew times a day not for a proper feed note just foe comfort
So nice to hear from you Clo! glad you and Viviana are both doing well; sounds like your super busy with all the visitors! I don't know how you do it.. I've been quite strict & feel cruel on the visitor front as hardly anyone has met Morgan & hes 2 weeks old tomorrow.. I've just not been feeling it, i'd rather sleep and do my chores when he does!🤔 At least you're doing what is right for you both. the midwives are quick to push breast feeding but it's bloody exhausting and emotionally draining.. especially if you were struggling with your milk supply as well!
Gixxer it sounds like Jordanna has more clothes than me 😂🙌🏾 i love the bits in ASDA. they are sook reasonably priced and have some really cute stuff in!
Ive not been in to work yet Danielle! will let you know once I have xx
afternoon ladies i started writing a huge reply last week and got interupted and then when I came back on had to sign in and it was gone so completely lost the thread of what i was talking about .... Hope ur all doing well and beautiful pictures... Chloee so glad to hear u and Morgan are home 😘
Earthqngel hope things are getting better for you at home and just a rough couple of days you were having??
Hh88 hope ur ok and breast feeding still going well And ur feeling better!
Wow closmith Isla is 4 weeks now and my visitors have demished lol... Think novelty worn off about a week later and even my mum has only seen her twice 😔 Glad ur doing well tho and baby is healthy and gaining weight again, so nice to hear from you.
thanks so much daniellemfm recieved my swaddle on Thursday 😘
Closmith I know the feeling luckily Jordanna hasn't lost weight she's been piling it on. She's now combi fed as I felt like she wasn't getting enough from me and was mega hungry. I try and express with my electric pump every couple of hours when I can.
totally agree breastfeeding is draining I get tired after feeding Jordanna's but then again she does latch on for an hour sometimes more at a time lol
chloeepee I love Asda and it's a 10ninute walk from my house lol and Tesco is 5 minutes the other way lol. I got her wee pink bambi pram suit from Asda and she has loads bambi items from there 🙈
ive always bought from Asda or Tesco even with my other 2 girls. There clothing is so hard wearing and defo value for money 🙈
I bought off eBay this time round little Romany dresses and they only cost me £14-£16 rather than the usual £50,£60,£70 lol love a bargain xx
lovely to see all is well with you And viviana closmith.
the colic situation here is awful. today oliver just screamed for 4 hours solid. We are using colief in his bottles but I feel utterly helpless as no amount of hugging, swaddling, walking the floor etc made any difference. Think I am going to try an anti colic formula to see if that helps. Only plus is that he is able to sleep at night and still only wake for 1 feed.
Our swaddle was delivered to Trevern and we picked it up yesterday afternoon, Thankyou so much DanielleMFM we shall give it a go today morgan LOVES being swaddled! Yesterday was our first outing, we walked the beach way to my work where both my colleagues & elderly clients were made up to meet him; bless them. 😍
Earthangel poor Oliver! It must Ben horrible having to listen to the scream, its such a painful one isn't it 😫 The HV told me to tilt Morgan's crib & try infacol! its working he now settles in his basket after a feed without screaming blue murder or spitting back up! Worth a shot if you haven't tried that!
Haha love a bargain Gixxers. That's ideal isn't it! I bought an adidas originals set for Morgan yesterday, down to 25.00£ From 40£ an absolute bargz haha! 😂
