we're having a rough week, me and Bori .. it has to do with her tummy hurts, or she's being hungry, or not hungry, but messing her/our schedule up ..
I like to have a schedule, Reka was so great about it, ate every 3 hours and then 4 hours, and slept through the night after 5 weeks.
now Bori is quite different.. her eating fluctuates between 1.5hours and 5, and probably everybody knows that I'm not the feeding on demand kind of mom, so it frustrates me quite much .. but there were a few times when she was crying and I could see that she's hungry ..
and the nights are not the same either, there was one night when she slept 6 hours, mostly it's 3 to 4hours, but never the same night in a row.
and there were times when I had some issue with having enough milk.. with Reka. I had no problem whatsoever, in fact, I had to much .. but now, due to all what happened in August, I have enough, but no extra.. and when I don't have such a great day, it's not enough for Bori, so then comes the formula.. and I feel guilty and worried.
I'm trying to work out, but I feel that it's affecting how much milk I have.. and I'm trying not to eat (in fact, most of the times I'm not hungry, and I'm just dringing water a lot), but it's affecting my milk too .. so I'm struggeling now, can't loose weight, I feel like .. well, not to great..
but that's life, and I'm telling myself slowly and hopefull I'll be back where I was by Xmas..
oke, that's it for now, posting some pictures today I promise.

Dear Juci,
Second babies are never like first babies. Already you can see that Bori's personality will be very different from Reka's...you will learn to adjust. Also, don't try to diet now, it's not good for you or the baby, try to eat healthy meals and keep yourself on schedule.
Hang in there!
Patty
P.S. Have you talked to Amie recently?
