at home with an Ivysaurus

Briar didn't repeat her sleeping through the night trick, far from it, and Ivy woke up at 5am so I'm pretty tired today. Not as tired as ivy after a weekend of late night s, early mornings and short naps. She was ' challenging' this morning, howling when nurses wouldn't pick her up. So Euan took her home quickly after lunch.

Willow got to try a bottle today after consolation with the infant feeding advisor, who is I suppose my boss when I'm doing breastfeeding Peer supporting. So she gave us the preemie version of a medela calma bottle to try and fitted me for nipple shields in case willow gets nipple confusion. Willow didn't do very well with a bottle, but did make some attempts at breastfeeding today- so I may yet be right about her being a boob not a bottle baby. Static weight again today. Our 'no cows milk' trial is over so I had a delicious milky mocha and willows now on cow and gate.

Briars just getting chunkier and chunkier- she's starting to get ankle bracelets of baby fat. Hoping willow starts catching up soon- dreading having them in different sizes of clothing. Briar discovered she could splash in the bath tonight and practically emptied her tummy tub
