Morning All!
Firstly I want to say that I'm enjoying reading all your updates and hoping you all have healthy babes in arms very soon
AFM, I'm day 4 pp and starting to feel human.
Milk came in on Day 2/3, with DS I had to wait till Day 5. I'm engorged which looks ridiculous when I was a 38F to begin with.
DD was only 6lbs14 and has a pretty, dainty little mouth so my nipples are sore, sore, sore. Her latch is way too shallow but atm I can't get her to open wider. Working on it.....
She's suffering with terrible gas and was screaming in pain last night before she pooped
I hadn't had much rest between Thurs-Sun. Yesterday I realised why sleep deprivation is used as a form of torture.
However, the MIL who was snorting at me and calling me piggy for eating while pregnant has proved to be an angel. Who knew?!
The night before last, she took DD between feeds for a few hours to let me sleep.
This morning she's got DD downstairs while I shower, vegetate for an hour and lansinoh-up my nipples!
Last night after the crazy gassiness, DD fell asleep from 2-6, fed, and went back to sleep from 7-9!
What a difference a day makes...
She's beautiful though and I'm totally in love with her!
DS is an amazing big brother but he misses me although he's being very understanding about being gentle when he squeezes me because my 'nips' are sore..
He's getting lots of quality time with DH though which they're both enjoying.
