Update

me too...although i have to admit im becoming quite adept at wasting heaps of time!

tracey, if youre up for a tea and scones break [from the parents] tomorrow, let me know.
 
rach, thanks for this but i am soooooo over it. i think i would throw the green papaya salad at the wall. so far i have tried almost everything and the result is nil!

yep Sarah, if you can handle my mood.....lets meet up for scones because i am besides myself. i have terrible thoughs and i hate myself for them (i just want to cry!!!!!!!). i will give you a call around 1pm to see how you are tracking! perhaps a massage first??

sarah, i am not up for going out for scones today but could be up for a foot massage later. i am going back to bed but will give you a call around 3pm. cheers, trace
 
Tracey,

Im also getting a slow start today - still in my PJs : - )
Give me a ring later, a foot massage sounds good.

Hi ladies...

Bringing up the rear, Anastasia (5.8lbs) and Gustav (7lbs) were born on Monday, 4 August. We are all doing well...they both came as trained b/feeders, so even though its one more mouth to feed, it is thankfully easy (touch wood).

Anyhow, it will be nice to get home and settle in...
Hoping all is well with everyone and their kiddies,
Sarah
 
congratulations!! Love the names :) I am in awe of you managing two - both the birth and the feeding...

My little guy is such a delight but wearing me out all on his own!

Great to have another little guy in the group - ollie's quite outnumbered by all the girls :)
 
hi ladies,

sorry for the delay; with my parents then new bubs i have been busy!

ok ...my little eagle landed before Sarah brought her little treausres up the rear...

little isabella jane telford batty was born 2.04am on the 3rd of August. Birth weight was 3.06 kgs and her length was 51cm.

my labour was swift .... my waters broke around 6 (i think) whilst walking up my 50stairs and whilst carrying take away scones from PR (too funny).

i know not always advisable but i waited as long as i could and arrived at the hospital at 1030pm. at that time, i was 3cm so they said, take it easy, it will be a long night. by 1230pm I was 7and after short while I was 10 and ready to go. Umm.. guess Bella is as impatient as mummy.

Bell arrived healthy and happy and i made it unscratched - thank the lord.

you will all know what i mean when i say that i have good days and bad. on sunday i thought motherhood and i were likes ducks to water wheras yesterday i declared that i was the worst mother in the world.

Bella arrived overdue so she arrived in need of food but i havent been able to supply to the level required. she lost weight when we left the hospital and we had our pedi visit today and she has lost a little more weight. he let me know my options... and to my absolute (and I mean absolute) feeling of failure, my mother fed her, her first formula bottle. i can not even begin to share my feelings about this... very bummed.

i do however plan to use some formula as a top up strategy (max 2 feeds per day for max 7 days) and start expressing to get my production working a little better. please say a prayer for me as i really want this to happen!!!!!!!!!

on the up, i am so pleased that we all now have our bubs (and sarah2 with her two) on the ground and (apart from bits n pieces) healthy.

I look forward to perhaps grabbing take away scones and heading to the park near the press room some day soon.

apoligise in advise for the typos but the screen is too small and i am too tired and bummed at this point to care.

love trace

ps pics of little bella are on my facebook - tracey nicole batty
