All I can say is WOW! I had a feeling that my milk wasn't enough for Tyler but as he refused to take a bottle there wasn't much else I could do. He never sleeps more than 20mins during the day and this has been happening for AGES! The last three days he was feeding every 1/2-1 hour, unsettled and grumbly! My boobs started to get really sore from constantly being fed on. Anyway today I bought him a new formula. He drank a full 120mls played for about 30mins and has now been asleep for nearly 2 hours!!! WOW! In saying that though his night routine is getting even better. he has done a few 5 hour stretches now! YAY very exciting.
I am so glad he can take the bottle again, I thought it might have been something to do with him not liking the flavour of the other one or it had gone off. Stupidly I kept it on top of the microwave not even thinking hmmm the heat might affect it! I am so relieved he is sleeping soundly now, I don't care if I can't fully breast feed him I just want him to be happy and healthy. In saying that I weighed him yesterday. he came in at 6.46kg!!!
Other than that this morning he started batting at his toys on his floor gym and actually grabbed onto one! Couldn't believe it. After his bottle I was playing with him with this yellow dog thing I got him and he reached out and tried to grab it. such a good little boy! I thought maybe it was a one off and he would take some time to do it more but nope he has been doing it ALL day.
Yesterday afternoon I lost my marbles! I have been trying to be really good with this getting back into exercise thing! well DH got home late from work yesterday which was fine, but I couldn't go for a ride so I was just going to go for a run. Problem was I couldn't find my iPod ANYWHERE! I was so angry and frustrated and upset. especially seeing as Tyler had been feeding every 1/2 hour or so, so I had been sitting on my butt in a chair all day! I just felt fat and horrible and I just wanted to do a workout and was annoyed that it had to be so hard!
Turns out my iPod is at my mums YAY and DH should be home from work about 4:30 which gives me heaps of time to go for a ride before Tyler's bath and bed time.
I pulled out my skinny jeans yesterday! hmmm! size 11. but this is my aim. Yes we aren't preventing but I am going to focus on my exercise and weight loss for now.
Something else I thought about the other day too, I noticed when I had been TTC for so long that I had a bit of a pattern in terms of my emotions. Around when I ovulate my mind goes crazy in terms of all I can think about is being pregnant and having a baby. Well I was thinking back trying to think of when I saw that fertile CM and I remember I was crazy thinking about being pregnant again. its ALL I could think about. I blogged about it so I will have to go back and have a look. I am not thinking I am pregnant at all but curious to know if I did or didn't in fact ovulate when I thought I did.
Also I finally got around to putting all my photos into frames the other day and putting them up. We finally have photos of Tyler up on the walls and on the book shelf. Also lots of new family photos too which is nice.
Well this has taken me all day to write and seeing as its nearly 4pm I should start to get ready to go for my ride. Oh yeah and I set the pram onto big bubba settings so Tyler can sit in it. He is far too nosy to be lying on his back and I want to start going for walks at 4:30-5am when he wakes up. Its nice and cool and the sun will be low so I wont have to worry about covering him up and he can look around at everything and be as nosy as he wants! :)
