CONGRATS MONKEY...

We sure have been running a close race together!! Eva born 11/1/13 and weighed 8lb 6oz

Hope all are doing well and that C loves his new brother.

I had a CS in the end and I too was uncomfortable but I'm amazed at how well and fast I have recovered each day! I wished they would have just listened to me when I stressed I wanted a CS in the first place but no, was forced to give natural birth a try...grr
 
Congratulations to you on the birth of little Gregory. Glad to hear all went well.

Suze, I know! Had been hoping for good news from you. So pleased blood glucose stuff worked out ok for Eva. Was your colostrum useful?

Golly...was it!! She suffered with jaundice and as a first timer, I was petrified when I saw her in the incubator with the UV lamp, but I now have learnt that jaundice is common. I think the colostrum helped as she was only just treatment level and also she has struggled to latch on for breastfeeding so the colostrum was at least a little bit of nourishment for her. I'm deffo Team Colostrum Harvesting!! I am now expressing and feeding her my milk but just via a bottle (and daddy can help out too!!)

Did everything go ok for you? ...yours was a planned cs wasn't it. (If a next time I'll deffo be forceful and go for it...even if I have to go private and pay. I was absolutely exhausted and would have like to have saved my energy)

ps - we had Ellis on our list for a boy too!!!!
 
Congratulations 🙂
