April 2014 ttc thread - come on baby cupcake!

Thanks everyone :)

Ducky yes I managed to bf :)
And they didn't rele say exactly what was wrong just said it was the way he was born, and factors of me being GD.

Thanks Bears! :)

Haha Lulu I like the cupcakes!
Oh he's a proper boy alright yes DS1 met him yesterday and was so desperate to touch him and hold him but ds2 had a lot of wires all over him so DS1 couldn't touch him. DS1 is fed up now tho and wants to get back into his routine.

Haha thanks Lill the dressing gown is only from primark I think!
Oh god I couldn't imagine dreaming about giving birth again. I'm never doing this again lmao. Csections are far too painful
He latched okay on the left side, but wouldn't latch to the right lol but on his 2nd feed he fed perfectly from both sides! :) took about 15 mins to latch on but once he did he fed so well!

OMG cupcake, he's soooo gorgeous! So glad he's feeling better and that he's on the mend. Also, your dressing gown looks lovely!
I had a dream last night that I was pregnant again and about to give birth or have a section, and I was really nervous! It must have been from thinking about you and little DS2!
What does DS1 think of him?!
Great he's had a feed - did he latch easily etc?

Just google. They are really cute aren't they. I think the pink and blue ones would be quite easy to make - it is just fondant icing on a cupcake. Not that I could do it but a decent baker could.

Hurrah for Baby Cupcake
(Literally baby cupcakes)

Thank goodness! He looks really big Cupcake. And very much a boy. There is no way you could look at him and wonder if he was a boy or a girl. He's lovely.

We were really worried about you both. So pleased everything is ok.

Now the fun starts! Had DS1 met him yet?

So pleased to see this cupcake, he is lovely!

Oh no I did post an update but it hasn't posted lol!!

Ds2 is doing amazing!!!! I fed him for the 1st time at 2am this morning :) he's coming out of his incubator today!!! So happy :) :)
I'm in a lot of pain tho from the csection, it's extremely painful atm. :( but baby is on the mend :) he's amazing and so small!!

DH and I have just watched Only Connect and I beat him. Living life on the edge in the north-east . He has gone back to do another hour's work, having been distracted by University challenge. I have promised to go up and make him come to bed in an hour - he aaid the thought would motivate him.
Might as well have some more cider.

DS loves scrambled eggs Bear, and boiled eggs, omlette as we found out tonight and fried egg as we found out last night. There is nothing we have found that he does not like. He even ate an olive last week- took his time and pulled a face but he ate it.

You could make an omlette Ducky. Beat two eggs. Put butter in frying pan, heat until hot, pour in eggs and cover with lid for 3 mins. Add cheese or whatever you like, (cooked mushrooms or cooked bacon or potatoes or chorizio etc) leave another minute and slide onto plate. If you put pan undergrill for a couple of minutes they puff up and look very impressive. Honestly, dead quick and you can't go wrong.

I am about to have a glass of cold cider in our new room having come equal to DH on University Challenge.

Cupcake, I hope you're ok, and DS2 He is absolutely beautiful, I hope he's better very soon and that you're recovering well
You'll still be able to bf, even if he's in neonatal for a few days. Make sure you get support from the midwives and if they'll let you borrow a pump it might help your milk supply to come in.
Thinking of you

Keep checking my phone. Hope all is ok cupcake.

I've just had to have scrambled eggs after reading this :) DS tried it. He was not impressed. DD got home from nursery and fell asleep on the sofa. A, trying to work out when best to wake her up!

Hope you're ok cupcake

Yes he has Ducky. I have said he is not to do any work but he says he is doing an hour every day and that is it. He has just watched the FA cup draw and is off to put DS to bed and do his hour. Two omlettes took about 10 mins to make, including salad - we didn't have chips. DS managed a bit if omlette as well.

I am so worried about Cupcake.

Or maybe mushroom omlette and chips.

Well DH has finished painting and it looks great. And I found a throw that was my grandmas in the 1950s that tones exactly. The room looks lovely. We are going to sit in it tonight when DS has gone to bed.

DS has had cheese on toast and beans for his tea followed by banana. He is out for a walk with DH now and I am watching TV. DH and I are having egg and chips again

I keep checking hoping you have had some better news Cupcake. It must be so worrying and scarey.

Baby is gorgeous cupcake. Glad he is finally here and hopefully soon he will be in your arms. Hope you get to see him soon or have had the chance already. X
