Thought I'd try find a bit of time to let you know how things are going!
We're still breastfeeding, though having to supplement with formula - today has been a more settled day (mainly because I've given her more formula) we did attempt a bit of exclusive breastfeeding but she just couldn't get enough milk from me :-(
Life is not that easy at the mo, mainly due to the feeding probs I think, school work is hardly getting done (not something I'm overly worried about mind) and the children have been left to their own devices perhaps a little too often as I've been concentrating on baby. the house is a disgrace lol and the washing - well we're just about keeping up (meaning we all have clean clothes even though the baskets are heaving lol)
Saying all this - it's not stressing me out as I know that this too will pass, baby will grow up far too quickly and there will be plently of time for a sparkling clean organised house lol (though I do have to remind myself of this quite often).
So for a quick summing up I would have to say at the moment at least life with a newborn consists of housework not getting done, other children misbehaving a little more than often, me sitting on the sofa feeding all day long and lots and lots of cuddles with baby :-) which makes up for all of it!

Enjoy your cuddles - the dust can wait! Good decision. :o)
When the dust settles and we both get used the the new routines with new babies in the house, we MUST catch up. If we are doing well it might be before summer - LOL!
