Whoever said that it's easier with no. 2 is wrong. EIther I've forgotton it all frm 15 months ago when DD1 was born or else this is much harder.
How come it hurts to BF so much again (I only stopped BF'ing DD1 5 months ago)?
Green poo (not the meconium stuff) - how?? why???
Can't get her to feed for more than 5 mins so she wants feeding again 1.5 - 2 (if I'm lucky) hours later). See above for sore (also cracked and bleeding boobs) for general joy of this whole situation.
Cord stump gone a bit manky - cord fell off this morning and it just looks gross. Midwife says is OK tho, but it just makes me want to heave.
On the positive side she's beautiful and she's put on weight - didn't lose an ounce.
Not sure what I'm after by posting this - maybe just to vent a bit. I guess it's the 5 minute feeds leading to breif sleeps before demands for more that is doing my head in the most. Is this normal. DD! guzzled for ages and slept for ages for the first week or so as I remember.
