sadly they come when they want! i know what u mean though i am expecting my 2nd in 4 weeks time and i just want him to hurry up and get on with it!! lots of hot sex, hot baths and spicy food!
yeah the wierdest thing after i had my first baby was not feeling him move inside me any more. it felt like i wasnt as close to him any more and i felt really sad about it, but breast feeding helped alot to help me bond with him. i had quite a stressfull birth and i didnt really love my baby for about a week! so just be prepared for very irrational feelings! if u want to chat at any time before or after the birth my email is wattawoman@hotmail.com. when are you due?
Well after I had Mileena and I was lying in bed one night I felt my belly move like there was still a baby inside. lol I didnt half Sh*it myself thinking they forgot a baby in there or something... a baby I didnt know about. lol I tried to breastfeed but my factory was closed down for business and we bottle feed Mileena and we still have a wonderful bond. So I not sure if breastfeeding or bottle feeding makes a difference in the bonding side of things... I not sure tho. Could be just the way a mother bonds with their baby. Dunnos. Weather ya breastfeed or bottle feed there will still be an amazing bond there.
i just found that breast feeding helped me to bond with him after a difficult birth, i did find it hard to start with cause he wanted to feed every hour but as soon as we got home he was much better. he would never take a bottle so i dont know if id have had the same thing if id bottle fed. we r hoping to introduce atleast one bottle a day to the 2nd baby so he can be left with people when we need to
Sorry to hear you had a difficult birth. As long as long as you and baby are fine thats the main thing. I really wanted to breastfeed as it's better for the baby etc and was upset when they said it was best to bottle feed. And as well I didnt like the way they (midwifes) just shoved my boob in Mileena's face and waved my boob around like it was some sort of a flag. Mileena is my first so I didnt know what to do to breastfeed etc and asked for help... and they just come along and treated my bits like that put me off. But in the end everything has worked out.
thats really awful! i have heard loads of bad stories from my friends about not getting enough support. i think some midwives have alot to answer for! but she looks like she's doing well and thats the main thing! i am hoping to breast feed again this time but i have a 15 month old so i dunno if ill get the time u need to relax etc any advice on handling 2 under 2 would be greatfully recieved!
