Amy has settled into life really well 🙂

Her mother is a different story! Damn hormones – making me teary for no particular reason, making me insecure and scared that I’m doing something wrong, and frightened that tomorrow Justin goes back to work and I’ll be on my own doing all of this. You would think that I’d have it down pat, and yes, I kind of do, but it’s those hormones……

I have to admit though that Number 4 baby is really easy. Having confidence from past babies and knowing how to do a lot of things that with the first one or two I was running blind with, has made this so much easier. Not worrying about a sleep on her tummy, or if I’m using a dummy or not, or why she hasn’t pooed in about 3 days are all things I’d would have agonised over before. Not now. Do what you can to get the peace and the baby comfy, and the mum some sleep.

The nights are going well with Amy waking up at about 1am and then 5.30am for feeds. She goes right back to sleep and I am tucked up back in bed within the half hour. I said she was good! She is starting to be awake a bit more in between feeding and sleeping, and I love it when she looks up at me while I’m cooing at her and telling her about the day and how gorgeous she is. She is looking more like Meg every day.

Speaking of the others – Holly and Meg set off on Friday arvo with mum and dad to Port Macquarie. Sorry if you live in Port Macquarie but about 100 of my relatives are spending the week there at a Family Reunion, so things could get rowdy! Mum and Dad have graciously taken the girls to be a part of it seeing that Justin and I couldn’t go. I miss them more than I thought. The house is so quiet and I keep looking at Jessica and she is wondering why she has all this attention. Usually she has to fight for it:) Make the most of it Jessie.

Wednesday sees the arrival of my in-laws from Perth and I can’t wait to see them and have their company for a week. Floriade is a must see.

Well that is about it for now. I have spring cleaning fever so will run with that while I have the energy.

Thanks for coming by 🙂
