Reina Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Breastfeeding has stopped and the wife is now using bottles.Just hurt the wife to much when breastfeeding. So yeah 3 days worth we feel was fine. I had to go to tesco last night "at 2am" to get a sterliser which cost £60 .Baby is doing well now still. We feed on demand. Picture will try and get up tomoro Glad all is going well. Breastfeeding is so so so so so difficult. People seem to think it just comes naturally, but my fucking goodness it hurts like hell in the first few weeks. I used to cry every time he needed feeding and dreaded the next feed, it was so sore. It's taken 6 weeks for me to start enjoying breastfeeding. Hope Cheryl's ok. Can't believe Cal is 6 weeks old today. Unreal. It's a bit sad really, he's losing his newborn look. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reina Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Tell her to ask for stronger painkillers. I was on Duclofenac (spelling?!) and paracetamol three times per day, plus antibiotics and lactulose. Lactulose was the most important bit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cherish every moment of it. Your thinking is spot on. Grandfather Phoenix 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reina Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Me, Son, The WifeOnly picture have got on the computer Well done G, he's lovely Get used to the lack of sleep... He'll want fed every 2 hours at least. When we were at an antenatal class, they showed us the size of their stomach - newborn was about the size of a marble - no wonder they eat so often! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewartyMac Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Wee Kirsty was stung by a wasp just above her lip earlier Poor wee thing. At least there's no been any allergic reactions though, and it doesnae seem to be bothering her now, just a bit swollen. Panic stations at the time, mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Phoenix Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Very nice indeed, but hasn't the midwife told you not to keep him in a cage? I was going to say that. Nice one Graham. He's a wee cracker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f_c_dundee Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Me, Son, The WifeOnly picture have got on the computer Congratulations again:) Getting affy impatient to meet mine now. Due tomorrow, but have had loads of people phoning etc to see how I am doing today - what will it be like tomorrow! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewartyMac Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 So will give him a bath tonite and see how he goes. Do that every night. He'll then associate his bathtime with his bedtime. Helps getting into a solid routine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewartyMac Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Yeah we were thinking every second night, if im right in thinking every night is not so good for the skin. Makes the skin go alot dryer. Kirsty gets a bath every night, and her skin is fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Phoenix Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Yeah we were thinking every second night, if im right in thinking every night is not so good for the skin. Makes the skin go alot dryer.Im taking 2 hours sleep and seem not to bad. Irn bru is helping alot. A bath every night will do him no harm whatsoever, indeed I'd say quite the opposite. However, I suggest you cut out his intake of Irn Bru altogether. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reina Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Remember you don't need to put any soaps or anything in the bath at this stage - particularly if you're bathing him every night. Cal only gets bathed in warm water every night and his skin is fine. Bathing before bed also helps settle them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebanda's Handyman Services Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Coley moans now if we tease him that he's just going in his bed without a bath now and Isla chants "Bat, bat, bat" excitedely whenever she hears us mentioning the bath. They both sleep from 8pm until 8am without waking and we credit their bathtime routine for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
