Stuarty Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Nighttime feeds are a struggle for me. Wee man is only 6 days old and it's no his fault he's hungry! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was kept in for a good few days after it, but it wasn't exactly a "run of the mill" section unfortunately. You'll need to give her an injection in her belly once a day for five days after it also. Getting up from a lying or sitting position will need your help for a few days as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had an emergency section and for the first couple days in hospital I could do very little, not helped by massive blood loss. The only thing I really struggled with was getting out of bed and getting into the bath/shower. I would say I was comfortable after about 10 days. No driving though, which was shite. I had ruggy around for the first 2 weeks and then his mum/my mum came up in turns to help out for another week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmothecat Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 My daughter got up pretty early the other day, and I lay in bed for a couple of minutes as I heard her going to the bedroom door, opening it, and walking out. We've got a baby proofed place so wasn't worried and I knew it wouldn't be long until she would waddle back through and wake me up properly. About three minutes later she walked through holding a large bag of Doritos. She walked up to the side of the bed, stuck her hand in and started handing me Doritos to eat. Have to say having a child never felt more worth it than that moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I'm starting to really enjoy walking into the wee one's room after she's dozed off/woken up to see what weird and wonderful position she's in. A couple of recent finds below. The first one is just freaky and the last one is funny but slightly worrying as well (today's shopping list contains some kind of barrier to put around the bed!) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RH33 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 So said youngest had her second school visit. Destroying every belief I have about sending kids who are born late in the intake Callander going at 5.5. She's more than ready and was probably one most confident there! Her big brother is a sept baby and he had a deferred year, each kid is different. oh and last night she came out with "mummy you're a penis, I love you" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember my missus self-admistering hers after the c-section much to ky admiration (and relief not having to do it). From memory she wasn't able to do much stuff for first week or so (not helped by anaemia and the infamous iron tablets) before starting to recovering. Imagine the driving thing could be a pisser but we were lucky to be living very close to family and a supermarket at the time.I've have added bunches to my repertoire of hair styles alongside the ponytail and "down". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellboy1991 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 My missus is 34weeks gone. Can't wait for the wee yin to arrive. However I am also looking forward hopefully for the wife to stop snoring so bad. Any of the other P&B dads have the same issue with the pregnant other halves?? Stared after about 14 weeks and just getting worse....! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Aye. I was amazed she never woke herself up it was that loud. Nearer the end of her pregnancy I spent most nights on the couch because of it. Can't believe my one is at this stage already. Time is going so fast 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throbber Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Mrs B works in mental health, believe it or not. A case of out of the frying pan and into the fire during her daily routine then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
