Dysco I suppose anything under 2 h would be ok. But it takes some tries for them to start liking it so at the beginning I am using it for short periods of like 20 min until she is comfortable there.
At the moby she stays more cuddled and my baby has a shit fit every time you restrain her hands or legs... Probably that's why she hates it. Once she hits like 2 m and has better head control I will try her in a sitting position there she may like it better though I seriously doubt it...

Feeling so emotional today 
I month ago I was in labor....
I can't believe that Amelie is one month old already. I was looking at those first 5 min pictures of her and can't believe that I am blessed with her.
I will never forget though the horrendous pain of those last minutes of labor and the extreme worry that sth bad will happen to her...
this is the very first moment picture
And this is this morning

things are starting to calm down...i would say that the hectic newborn days are mostly behind us...we still have problems with day, night confusion resulting in a sleep deprived mummy but the difference between those first 2 weeks and now is amazing...
today i managed to make apple pie and dinner and also to finish an article
ofc that probably means that after she slept so long during the day she will have none of it during the night but we will see.
my parents will also be here in 5 days and that will be such a blessing. cant wait for some properly cooked greek food and desert and washed, ironed clothes and a clean house...oh and they will leave us before they leave a freezer box full of cooked frozen meals
basically as my mum said i have to do nth more than enjoy myself and amelie... that and finish some articles, some book chapters, some abstracts and get some studying done...
after they leave i will properly start dieting again can't wait reall;y
this week i also have my 5-6 weeks check up at my gynaecologist though i am pretty sure everything will be ok. thinking about that and considering the shitty labor i had i was quite lucky lol, i got no piles, i have perfect bladder control, i didnt need an epishysiotomy, my stitches have never been sore, i didnt have troubles to pee or poo immediately after birth, no need to even lean forward or spray with water...my bleeding was never more than a normal period flow, i got no clots at all, no pains and the bleeding turned to spotting at 2 weeks and stopped completely at 3-4 weeks.
we also kind of resumed sex life, we didn't attempt any aheam penetration yet as i am just waiting for the ok this week and then we just need amelie to sleep lol for this to happen...
i also asked my oh to look down there (at 2 weeks ) and he said everything looks normal, just a bit loose he couldnt see any stitches so i still wonder where my stitches are???????? as i couldnt feel them at all (scared to death to look lol)
i will ask the gynaecologist as i dont even know where i tore?????
that was a huge random post lol!!!

So Amelie is almost 6 weeks and today I had my final check up.
she had a look, I had an ultrasound and a PAP test.
She said everything is healing great and that everything look nice and tight lol and to go ahead and have sex
Scared much lol?????
So I now only have to contact her when I want to stop expressing to get a pill to stop lactation and ofc she will contact me if anything is wrong with the smear
I actually feel a little sad that I will not see her for quite a long f time lol?
Oh and how weird was the ultrasound to look in there and to be no bean there
It was quite surreal

Hey Lolly
Obviously I don't know all the uk regions but I think Scotland would be for me I just love outdoors, mountains, climbing etc and probably there are more possibilities there for that kind of lifestyle couple that for my very busy social life and probably anything around Edinburgh would be great lol
Amelie has a tough week... Comes afternoon she can't drop off ending up crying inconsolably for hours I ended up in tears everyday the past week. It's just so hard to see her crying so much.
God if I knew how much my "heart will hurt" from love I would have consider twice getting pregnant...
In a different note she is now 6.1 kg jumped at the 97 centile from the 90 one and she is above centiles for height
She is a tall girl outgrowing in length already the 6m clothes
Anyway I will flat down the next person who will say that she is fat... Not that I can diet her right????
The grandparents are completely besotted but I end up being as tired as before as I just can't let her with them and sleep when the past days she has been so unsettled not that they don't know how to take care of her but I just can't stand to know her away from me ( make the definition of away the first floor while I an in the second )

Hope lovely, the right answer would have been Cardiff . We are 30 mins or less from sea and mountains and closer to big cities .
Sorry to hear she isn't settling well in the afternoons, that must be hard. Hope your parents are helping in other ways though and maybe with time yu will start to feel ok with her being away from you for a little, you need that break Hun. Xxx
