Yeah!! We have our gorgeous babies!!

Hi to everyone with a lovely March baby.

I gave birth to Evie Grace at 6:15 on 1st March weighing in at 8lb 10oz. Seems like it was ages ago now, can see her changing already. She was due on 17th Feb but kept me waiting.....was well worth the wait.

Probably sounds daft but I can't stop looking at her, don't think it's really sunk in yet.

Am trying to breast feed, but she can be on the boobies for 2hrs but still be hungry and need a top-up feed straight after. Is anyone else having probs with BFing? Feel kinda guilty that I'm obviously not producing enough. That or she's just a greedy little madam.

Good luck with al your new bubs

  • Hi
    Congrats - still waiting for my mar baby hope you join you soon- are you sure Evie is feeding and not just comfort sucking for that length of time?

    At least you get lots of time to look at her while she's on the boob! (You could post on breastfeeding chat - they prob have more suggestions)

    Good luck x
  • Yeh, she is a little sucker!!

    Midwife says she's just a hungry baby, but I'm gonna perservere with BF.

    Can't believe she's been here a week already.

  • My little girl Emilia was born on March 4th, 7lbs 8ozs.

    Can't believe how quickly the first week has gone.

    Congrats to everyone on here, hope you are enjoying being Mums!
  • My little girl, Freya, was born on her due date - March 2nd, at 1.53am, weighing 8lbs 2oz

    She is the most amazing beautiful thing I've ever seen.

    Haven't got time to post now Applesauce, but the BF is really hard! She is hungry now so will try to post more later.

  • Congratulations everyone!!

    Evie is doing really well, after discovering that she much prefers the bottle to the boob!. She's taking 120ml at every feed, and that is after having a boob, so there is no way that I am producing enough milk to satisfy her.

    Felt really guilty for a few days which set off the blues pretty badly. Felt like a terrible mum as I couldn't feed her enough. But as soon as I accepted that she was happy being bottle fed, the blues started to lift.

    To those of you that have or are going through the baby blues, just let yourself cry it out, it won't last forever and you are doing your best, which is all you can do. You are all fabulous mums and your babies love you. They will pass and you have no reason to feel guilty and incompetant. Keep your chins up.
