Sleeeeeeeeep....

I would sell my first born son for a solid 8 hours sleep...

... Just kidding!!

But seriously, I would kill for sleep that lasted longer than 2 hours.. I know I was complaining about getting up 5 times a night to pee, but I would take that over 2 hours sleep, 1 hour feeds, 2 hours sleep 1 hour feeds any day!! Ok, whinge over!

Sneaky jump on the scales today and I'm 93.2kg. Woo-freaking-hoo! I have yet to try on my pre-preggo jeans, they're in a box somewhere and DH has to get it down from the closet for me... It would be so cool if I could breastfeed my way to my goal weight! I think I'll probably have to start exercising to make that happen though... Breastfeeding will only do so much!

I am hardly eating at the moment. Probably 1 full meal (bandit sized full meal!) a day and that's usually dinner because my DH is home and he can take over the babysitting. Sometimes I manage a weight watchers meal in the middle of the day, but usually I get halfway through it and my boobie monster is up for a feed so it ends up going cold and bleh...

I'm snacking on cow cheese, nuts, rice crackers and corn chips. Very healthy I know... but so much easier for me to grab than to make a sandwich or a salad when you've got a second person attached to you and using up all your arms and hands (usually used for making said sandwich or salad!). I am drinking plenty of water though....

Tracey - I only had the head of 2 spears of asparagus so maybe that wasn't enough to cause any problems cos I didn't notice a change in my LO feeding habits. But I will keep that in mind for next time I feel like asparagus. I heard that we shouldn't be having things like onion, cabbage, broccolli and chocolate as well cos it can cause gas in the baby when feeding?

OK, enough from me for today. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

lol Oh I remember this part well - if we could get a solid nights sleep we can cope with anything. Good luck, chicklet.
