November Mummies

I thought it was time to start this thread off...

Xavier is now 6 days old. He's sleeping well, eating well (2-3 hourly), burping not quite so well (so is a little spilly at times), and is starting to have awake periods during the day. Kiya and Josiah are both very proud of their little brother, and there hasn't been any jealousy so far that I've noticed!

I'm doing good... my tummy is disappearing, but given that Xavier is quite a bit bigger than either of the other two, there's a bit of work to do! I'm going to start going for walks now that the weather is finally getting nicer.

We got our new double pushchair yesterday - a Phil & Ted one... Nathaniel loves it! He wants to get all the accessories, its so cute! We walked to Kiya's school for parent/teacher interviews last night, and the puschair is so wonderful to use... much better than our old single one, even with both boys in it.

ok Becca.....have you posted pics yet? have I missed it? man I cant wait to see him!!!

Thanks Emma!

No, Roksana, I haven't posted pictures yet... next day or so, okay?

hi girls,
just a quick check in to say all is well i was going to post a pic but Rhyley is hungry and i am tired so will do tomorrow instead.

good to see alls well with everyone

Here is my gorgeous wee man... Can't stop calling him 'your so cute"


2 days old


Taken today (5 days old)


My three children


Just been born in the recovery room

I do have a photo of him jst been pulled out of my tummy but thought it might be a little gorie for some people ... Blood stuff.
Will post birth story when I get my head around everything.. baby brain to the max.

We went on our first outing last night to see Rhyley's older sister Brooke in her drama play, I went prepared with pillow, water and blanket (hey I just had a baby) Rhyley slept thru the whole thing even when the lady behind us was taking sooooooooooo many photos the flash was giving me a head ache DH said he thought I was going to turn round and give her an ear full (the mood I was in - don't mess with a just given birth mother in pain hehe) but no after all she just wanted to get her kids/grand kids on camera.

First night at home I decided to put Rhyley in with us --- hence he is in his own room tonight. He slept 2 1/2 hours then woke up and messed about on boobie and dummy (yes I get it out to give it a go anything for some sleep) for 2 hours then finally settled again and slept from 3.30am till 8am, I lay him in bed with me for another half hour then we got up, he actually didn't feed till around 9.15am but then it was a good feed. He is getting to like the dummy as the Midwife at the home said he seems to suckle on me for comfort alot of the time, and that can get sore. Hes also go a bit of jaundice but feeding and is alert when awake so no biggie just yellows skinned.
All in all things are going good and I a surprised how I feel quite good after only having surgery 5 days ago. I have tried not to push it though and only done 'easy' house work.

Wow! He's gorgeous! And love that your hubby says he was already a dad
