For Wibbs!!!

Post by Nikola »

Hi honey

I'm so sorry I've not had chance to post - my days are never ending.....and the nights are even worse!!! I'm sure you'll understand now you too are a proud mummy!!

I was so excited when Tracey told me. Who would have thought it way back when we were doing tmt that we'd both make it to the end (although neither of us had a particularly easy journey!!) and end up very proud mummies!!!

How is motherhood treating you? Are you managing to get any sleep? I average around 5 hours, but this will change when dh goes back to work. He has one more week left (he took a month off - paternity leave and holiday), when he goes back I'll have to do ALL the feeds and the night ones take bloody ages.......

I'm still coming to terms with the shock that none of my clothes fit me. I feel almost back to normal, but clearly I'm not. I keep thinking someone has been and fiddled with my clothes and made them smaller! Oh well, I guess I'll be heading back to weight watchers. I'm a gold member so I get 6 months free after giving birth - might as well make the most of it!

I hope your 'lovely legs' ar back to normal and you can see your toes again - hurrah!

Even though I don't get chance to post, I think about you lots. and val - have you heard how she is? She is due this week! Let me know if you hear from her.

Right better go and eat before one of them wakes up demanding something........!!!

Lots of love to you and joshua!!!

nikola & florence & amelia!

Hi Nikola
How nice to hear from you glad all is going well with you and girls, I still can't belive we have come this far, and are holding and cuddling our bundles of joy :D .

Like you it's a round of never ending feeding and changing, but i would not swap it for anything in the world. I am getting about 4 hours, as Joshua is like a little alarm clock feeds every 3 1/2 - 4 hours on the dot.
:P
He was weighed today 1.6.04 by the HV and is now 7lb 3 1/2oz, she was very pleased with him, last Thursday he was 6lb 7 oz, so he is eating for England, no wonder I have lost so much weight. :oops:
I have returned to normal weight lost 2 stone already and my legs have at last returned to me, I still have a bit of a joey pouch, but when I can exercise again and of couse find the time I will do some tummy crunches :? .

How are the girls weight doing? are you boobie feeding them?
I am giving Joshua both he has Mummy milk and formula, so Daddy can give him a bottle, or I do express aswell, loves his food just like his Dad.

Daddy returns to work after this week, has been home for 3 weeks, and I will miss him, he does not want to go back either, so I think the honeymoon period will be over, and I will have to cope on my own :? :?
And I have only one.........how will you cope, (silly question you have too!!! :roll: ) do you have a good suport network?,
I have not heard from Val yet on her pending birth of Sydney, but I will send her a Email today to wish her all the luck from us all. and I will let you know of course when I hear from her.
Untill then my dear friend enjoy your girls and TRY and get some rest in between feeding and changing,
Take care TTFN
Wibbs
