Well, life has been interesting. :-)
I am beginning to get the hang of this "Mum" thing. I adore the beautiful little creature we have brought home. She is truly magnificent and astounds me every day :-)
I keep getting caught by looking at her and being swept away with the emotional realisation that this little thing is part of Barry and part of me...
I am getting the hang of breast-feeding, we still have a few struggles, but we are actually getting there. She is having some issues with gas, but we are learning how to deal with that. We bought her a dummy today, and that seems to be doing the trick. She seems to wake up and ask for a feed only to suck for 1/2 a second and then she falls asleep. So we are experimenting with the dummy tonight.
We are going down to Canberra tomorrow. This should be fun and interesting :-D
I am looking forward to getting out of the house, I don't actually think I am going to be able to play over the weekend, but I am seriously looking forward to seeing people. Being in a place where i don't have to worry about the mess is also going to be fantastic :-)
We shall see how this all goes and I will update this when i get back :-)
