life with a newborn ♥

a very quick update!

exhausted, elated, tired, in love, sweaty, amazed, achy, in awe, sick with cystitis and flu, full of bliss, sleep deprived, amused.

i'm all boobs and breasts; in the house i sort of walk around with them hanging out pretty much permanently! i is da milkmachine! dylan is drinking like there is no tomorrow, he is drunk and stoned on milk most of the time. he poops, pees, wees, snores (or snorKs as i like to say!), makes cute little gurgle noises and screams his little lungs out at times. he's starting to understand that nights = for sleeps and days = for wakes, sort of. he's growing! i'm amazed at looking at the pictures from when he was just born. he's 20 days now and already quite a bit bigger! he enjoys sitting in the sling and daddy is super soother, if he's unhappy or crying andy holds him and he goes quiet, the only way i can soothe him is by pushing a boob in his mouth, ha ha.

i am exhausted and sick with a runny nose and cystitis which is a problem. obviously being sleep deprived doesn't help the healing process, so again; trying to get as much sleep as possible, but it's not working quite yet.

andy is also sleep deprived, but we have a system whereby he can get a bit more sleep. i like it when he's a bit more lucid and 'strong' than i am during the day. :-)

i miss everyone here, but am so engrossed in this little baby and have so little time to write online! however, when i breastfeed i catch up on twitter and lj quite a bit, i don't always reply, but i read most posts!

big hugs!! xxx









these are a bit older, can't remember if i posted them already or not!
