    Hope everyone is doing ok.
    We had a little boy on 5th July called Jacob weighing 7lb4.
    He is so lovely, we are still getting settled, but each day gets easier (even when we have a tough night)
    Christmas is the most magical time of the year :santa2:
    Mum to two boys :heartpuls

    Congratulations Newthrift! It's a bit challenging in the early days isn't it! Glad to hear you are settling down with your new arrival :)

    Congrats newthrift! Jasmine is 3 weeks old now and has visibly grown and become more 'robust'. Scary how fast it goes even with the sleep deprivation!
    Cleared my credit card debt of £7123.58 in a year using YNAB! Debt free date 04/12/2015.
    Enjoying sending hundreds of pounds a month to savings rather than debt repayment!

    Big congrats newthrift! Hope you're all doing well. The sleep is brutal isn't it? I barely left my bedroom the first week but it does get easier but still tough!

    J is now 5.5 weeks and was seen by the health visitor today for his 6 week check. He now weighs 10lb 11oz and is starting to interact with us so much more, makes noises and smiles. Also his colic has been much better the last few nights with very little screaming, very refreshing!

    Congratulations Newthrift!

    The first few days are quite a blur, but it definitely gets easier.

    Saying that, OH is back to work tomorrow and I'm dreading it - its back to school runs for me. Itll be the first time on my own with the pair of them :eek:

    Best of luck sweetbabu. I can't imagine doing this with 2 small people, but I do know that I managed much better than I expected when OH went back to work. Although it took me 5 weeks to be brave enough to do a big shop :D

    Congratulations New, I hope you guys are doing well. The sleeping does get slightly better but still.

    Can't believe I have a month old baby now. Time has flown by. He seems to be getting so big, he no longer feels like a little baby 😂

    Just to add, in case anyone gets round to updating the list (can't do it from my phone!) that our little girl finally has a name - Zoe Elizabeth :) Two weeks old today, and OH just gone back to work... Eeep!
