Oh hi there - yup had a baby
That’s basically it - I had my little girl (yup a girl! Like husband thought so) her name is Lilith Enid Noella, she is now nearly three weeks old born 24th August at 7:36amand she is a little cutie (of course I’ll say this as her mother).
Husband and baby Lilith just after being born.
The birth/labour was horrific! There is no other words to describe it, after being in labour for three days and active labour for17 hours induced, too traumatic for me to write right now -,just say over simulation of contractions, 3 days worth of labour, sobbing, failed pain relief, husband sobbing, never been that much pain in my life, forceps, failed suction cup and being cut 3rd degree. Then cord was around her neck, her shoulders got stuck and it took awhile for her to breath.
I am so happy for her to be here safe and sound, I managed to get us discharged less than 12 hours after having her as they were going to send my husband home and I was going to be alone with Lilith while I couldn’t walk properly or move due to the cut. I am really thankful for the midwife who helped Lilith and me escape at 11pm, first night was hard as my milk never came in due to my traumatic birth and PCOS (which I never knew!) but she is now a happy little bunny (or bear if you see the outfit husband put her in) on her formula.
We are currently battling with colic, well what we think is colic as she hasn’t slept well the last couple of nights apart from last night where she did manage to sleep 1am till 10am with only two wake ups! Hurrah! The weeks before she has been really good about sleeping.
She is a little sweet heart, we love her to pieces even if she is a little nightmare sometimes, wouldn’t have her any other way.
Better dash as Miss Lilith has awoken from her nap.
