Since about 5.30 I think I've managed a total of about 30mins without a baby on my boob, and when she's not there you'd think the world had ended with the crying! I'm hoping this is a growth spurt, cos if not I have no idea wtf is going on.

It will be zyla, hang in there. I'm finding things a bit better after 6 weeks.

8 posts I can cope with, I'm giving up on catching up on the last thread!!
My baby has turned into a Vom Bomb Constant little sicks all day long. Everything smells like stale milk. Doesn't seem to to mind, gets a bit grizzly sometimes, but not really a big cryer - has he just got reflux-lite?? Trying to keep him upright after feeds, but I'm buggered if I'll do it at night when he drops off on the boob... Anyone else get a lot of mini voms?

Think if it's just little possets it's quite normal. Could be about to start teething or something and have a bit more saliva than normal.

Oh God I feel sick as a dog and I have this frigging hospital appointment. Not sure if I've eaten something dodgy. I'm so hot.

DP survived 2 1/2 hours last night while I went out, DD was a little beauty & saved up 2 poo explosions for him & gave me a massive smile when I got in.

Hi, a tmi question (sorry). How long did you bleed for after giving birth? I thought it'd be a bit shorter as I had a CS and thought they sort of cleaned you out a bit...but every time it lessens and I think it's nearly finished, it starts up again! Grrr.

4 long weeks! Then a blessed month off before ertd reared her ugly mug.

No AF was one of the best things about being pg, I hope she stays away, am hating the bleeding :(

1 measly ounce she's put on.

One
In a week.

But you know she's not had a good week, once she's settled it'll go up again, don't worry min x

God I hope so.
Hv said push for a paediatric referral.

Aw min. I hope she's ok. Definitely go for referral.

Think I was about four weeks too zyla

We have had a long old day. I'm knackered.

How frustrating Min Hopefully this week will be better for you!

Scoob - marvellous! I'm just out solo myself this evening, J is with my folks, so hoping that they're in one piece when I get home!

Sympathies Wil! Xx

I bled for 6 whole weeks!!

Hope your appt was ok wil

So much posseting here, she did it down my back then down my leg today. Oh, the glamour.

Sorry about R's weight thing min, hope the doctors have some answers soon, or she packs on 6oz this week to make up for it.

What was the hospital thing wil .

I think I bled for about 4/5 weeks after the c-section. Can't really remember now. It was nothing compared to the bleeding after ERPC and they kept asking me how it was in hospital and I was all like "Bah, I've had heavier periods". How annoying of me!

We're going away tomorrow (don't burgle me!). I have NO IDEA how to pack with the baby...will investigate if the hotel has a laundry as on some bad sick/poo days we can get through A LOT of clothes. Going to a wedding which is my idea of hell and it's going to be a NIGHTMARE. I may hide in a corner pretending to feed and message you guys to get me through.

I bled for 6 weeks Zyla. I also had the stop start thing where it looked like it was tailing off and then start up again The mw told me it'd be heavier if we'd had a big feeding day, or if I overdid it physically.

Feeling any better Wil? I feel sick as a dog. Think its cos I haven't been taking my antids properly.

Is she still not liking the new milk min? I'd push for the referral like the hv says.

Aw Juni - I luffs a good wedding!! Not had the joy of one avec baby though... I'm being a bridesmaid in September so god knows how that'll go down.

Weddings with babies are no fun. Although preferable to weddings with toddlers. You have my sympathy Juni.

Feeling ok Popz but not 100%. Still a bit sicky randomly.

Hospital app for the thing I mentioned on fb - not trying to be cryptic, it's just quite identifiable. You should see the poor wee thing bless her.

I don't know how I'm meant to do this. She just won't settle still, wants to be on the boob all night and will scream when put down. I wait until she's fast asleep but the second I put her down that's it! I can't have had more than an hour's sleep...again. It's so bad I wonder if I should ff to try and get her to sleep [cry]
