My baby's here!! he arrived on the 10th of feb - weighing 2.9kilos at 37 weeks and 4 days....


Adorable and sooo sooo sooo fragile and delicate!!


Just getting a hang of the whole newborn baby thing. we're having a bit of an uphill struggle with breastfeeding - i had a Cesarian and he got given the bottle.


One step at a time and i'm sure we'll figure out the whole thing together.

Congratulations Goddess Kali for ur new wonderboy! enjoy his smallness while u can because they grow so fast, that's what I tell myself everytime I look at my 4.5 monts old daugther now bubbly and moves like a fish ( only stayed tiny for me 2 weeks :)

Thanks very much to all for your kind wishes- i do intend to breast feed - we seem to be making progress he's gone from screaming murder every time i offered him my breast to now constantly wanting to suckle. He keeps falling asleep on my breast which is adorable and we totally enjoy it. Only problem is that i don't have enough milk.... working on it with frequent feeds, fenugreek, liquids etc.


Cara will do - just as soon as i figure out how to move pics from one computer to the other.


Crj - will check if they can come over to SZ to help. I think i will call them and ask.

AWWW Congrats Ladies on your Babies!!!!!!



As for not having enough milk.. try eating corn and cherries. Not together haha but like steamed corn and fresh cherries.



This was advice given to me after i had my first and my second. i didnt have a problem at first but around 10 months along i needed the boost and it worked. Not sure what is in the corn or cherries... hehe
