Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I definitely ran earlier 2nd time and was less cautious. Was a few days after 6w check with Oliver but after Jack was only 4w. (I didn't have a c-sec with either which would delay things).

Well, I have my 6 week check on Monday. Now wondering how I am going to fit in a run apart from the weekend. E is an evening cluster feeder. I haven't tried her on a bottle yet, but plan to try and do so next week. If she takes it then I might be able to leave her with my OH, but at the moment I go for my bath for half an hour directly after feeding her in the evening and she tends to wail until I come back. My Oh is getting stressed out by this, so not sure I can go out for half an hour run and then have bath/shower, if she is unhappy. Early evenings and Mornings are a no no as need to spend time with A. Any ideas?

Vicksta you could go for a half hour run, then feed E, then have a shower. Its a bit icky I know... just an idea. The evening cluster feeding might well settle in the next couple of weeks anyway... Hope you manage to get something sorted out.

Fab running mummyV, I know times are all relative to ourselves, but I'd kill for a 25:54 parkrun!

Remy is also a cluster feeder (still!), he also never actually goes to sleep before 12.00 midnight!!!! But I do go out twice in the week, I feed just before I go, express a feed and then my hubby usually stalls Remy by giving him a bath etc which he takes nice and easy, then has the bottle and is usually quite happy being rocked in his chair before I get back. Both my running clubs are fairly local so Im out for a maximum of 2.5 hours usually....hope you can work something out Vicksta

Thanks Vickster, I am going to try again this week and maybe in the future will be kind to myself and do a flat course for a morale boost :-)

Thanks for the advice, V and V. Well, I got out the door for half an hour and jeez that was hard. Slower than when I was 6 months pregnant. Felt so fat and unfit (which I am to be fair) but at least it's a start. Eloise took about 30 ml of expressed milk while I was out, which was good. Have to see how often I can do an evening run, but will try my best.
