Congratulations Kell!!! Hope all went well and you're enjoying newborn cuddles....

Had a horrendous friday. Had a flu jab, followed by a filling. later that evening I was throwing up. 6 weeks post baby and weak pelvic floors means every time I threw up I kept peeing myself. Sorry TMI!!! Made me feel like a disaster. Been a bit better today. DH hasn't been great either but he is one of those that as soon as you are ill suddenly has the same thing. Men!!

Anyway I need to get to bed...

Thanks ladies for all your congratulations I am loving the newborn cuddles! They are amazing!
Lily is doing great, breast feeding is going ok but my milks not come in yet so she's wanting to feed quite a lot, nipples are a little tender when she first latches but that's about it.

Our birth was very straight forward! Had a sweep at 12pm on Thursday by a student midwife, started getting very irregular contractions straight away almost, I kept finding that they would get more regular if I was resting, and almost stop when I was up and about weird!
By 8pm they were 15mins apart so called dp's mum to be on call for ds2 she decided to come over then and stay so she was definatly there.
Went off to bed at about10:30, laying down the contractions got to about 7mins apart and were quite moderate so we called labour ward to warn them I'd be in that night, at 12:30 we called back to say they we're 5mins apart they told us to come in. From home to hospital (6mins) I had 3 contractions lol we got in and settled was given gas and air and examined was 5-6cm and from there on my contractions came thick and fast! I didn't have any other pain reliefe I did get to a stage where I asked for some but I was just about pushing then so no chance!
I was up on my knees leaning over the head board the midwife said 'oh I'll just get a pad as your waters haven't gone' and right on que I have a contraction my body pushes and pop lol next contraction her head was born and then her body.
It was all so quick in the end
When she was born she looked just like ds2! Like his double!! Now she's looking more like mummy

Here she is with a very proud daddy!

Beautiful pics Kell, enjoy your little lady

How's everyone doing?

Beck is doing well, feeding every 4 hours now. Last feed about 10.30pm and then again at 4.30am, be great when we can stretch that last feed to 6.30am. Great that I get to go back to bed though after the 4.30am feed as still takes 45-60 mins to feed him so by the time I'm back in bed and asleep it's gone 6am, if it wasn't the school hols I would have to stay awake to get the boys to school...I'm LOVING no school run!

We went away to The Cotwolds in the caravan, had a lovely time.

The holidays seem to be flying by...hoping it gets abit more chilled as its been full on with stuff since we got back off holiday!

Pinga ~ hugs Hun, hope you are feeing better x

Babymad, glad ds4 is doing well and feeding good too! I hear u about the school run, what bliss lol (apart from when they argue) Ds3 is sleeping much better now he is on the mend, bed at 10pm, fed at 7am, back to sleep until 10am!! first layin ive had in a while lol.

Shame so many people cant make our meetup, think its only 3 of us now!! x x
