Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for keeping us chipper while the gruelling virus-related nursing strike went on. DS is still poorly, today involving coughing up lumps of snot and then projectile vomiting as a result (mmmmm, nice!). But at least he's now feeding normally, from me, and no more panicking about expressing or him being to weak to feed. Poor little mite has a high temp again though so looks like he's back on the Calpol and back to the GP's tomorrow to rule out infections etc..
But bloody hell, that was AWFUL! I thought I'd seen almost every BF problem this being DS3 an all, but to see a baby who's thirsty/hungry but too feeble to suck was scary. I have a new respect for those women who have to face that kind of stuff early on with a new baby...
