Happy to report that Oliver is much better- still got a cold but only sneezing occasionally now whereas yesterday it was every hour or so.
He's had lots of sleep too, so that must be helping, plus lots of milk!
We've been making 6oz bottles so if he brings any up (which he was doing when he had a sneezing fit mid-feed) there's extra in there, to stop him getting grumpy and both feeds this morning he's taken the whole 6oz and not brought any up!
Am kinda hoping if he continues to take 6oz, he'll drop a feed.
He was having 6x 5oz bottles a day but now it could end up being 6x 6oz bottles!!
And I shall have words and ask him to drop the 3:30am feed and sleep through haha
As for me? I'm full of cold and feel like **** :-/
Urgh!
But it's not going to stop me being on plan- I've managed 2 days on success express and I'm going for 2 more!
As it stands, my scales are saying a 1.5lbs gain, really hoping that'll go and I'll get away with a maintain. If I gain, it's my own fault!
Hoping tho, that it will be a small gain- I can live with a 1/2lb gain, considering the week I've had.
Got nothing in the way to stop me being on plan after Thursday- but that was true this week!!
Think it was the bad news of my friends hubby that floored me.
Am going out for a meal and catch up with my best friend on Friday evening
Looking forward to it as it'll be my first night out on my own without hubby or Oliver and I need it, I need a girly catch up
And the best part? Hubby has offered me a lift there and back so I can have a drink
I didn't even have to ask (tbh I wasn't that bothered so its a bonus), but it turns out he has an ulterior motive- it's 20 mins to the restaurant so 40mins twice means Oliver will sleep in his car seat yay!
He really struggles to settle in the evenings so I can see hubby's thinking
After this weekend, we've got something planned every weekend right up until the end of August
It'll make SW difficult to stick to as its mainly meals out and family parties!
