Phoebe Rose Ladd.

Im going to do my daughters life through main stages that I can actually remember 🙄🤣

So this part is from newborn to one month.

Enjoy.

When I heard her cry for the first time it melted my heart I just couldn’t believe that she was here.

When they placed her on my husbands chest I felt complete.

To see him look at her like he did was just such a special and beautiful moment for me.

After I was getting put back together I then tried to breastfeed.

I breastfed for 1 and half days and had to stop. Due to her being so small she just was so tired and didn’t want to latch.

I wanted to breastfeed so bad and it really got me down. But the fact I wasn’t told I could re try when I got home and when my milk had come through I have never felt so empty.

But anyway she took to the mam bottle as it was the same shape as the pre made cow and gate bottles they give in the hospital.

Here a photo half hour after she was born.

I wanted to get home ASAP so as soon as they said I could shower and stand up without being in pain it was my mission to get out 😂

That shower after all that went on. It was just pure amazing, felt like a new woman 🤗

I wasn’t aloud home until the doctor had checked my stomach and all my organs had settled down. So he had a good feel around and it wasn’t painful which he was shocked about💁🏼‍♀️

So we slowly walked to the car and stopped in big tescos to get milk as I had no at all or bottles but luckily I had some gifted from boots when I was pregnant 😂

I slowly made it up the 4 flights of stairs to our flat and my dad got us all a takeaway as it was like 9 at night🤭

My mum, dad me and Kurt sat down and just all stared and baby phoebe. Couldn’t believe she was here and she was home by day 2.

As we settled in as much as we could, we was in the middle of packing/ moving. So it was a bit of a nightmare.

The first 2 weeks my husband had off. Everyone came to visit baby phoebe.

All gave us cards and presents we were so grateful that everyone bothered to come over and gift us things.

Phoebe had her first bath at around 1 week old and she loved it.

By 2 weeks old we were nearly ready to move🙌🏼 thank god those stairs were a right nightmare and we had no storage for a pram so had to take her and the pram down the stairs every time we wanted to go out.

2 weeks and 3 days old we finally got to move into our new home.

At 3 weeks old phoebe loved tummy time and was lifting her head so well🤭 and this is when I knew she was going to be advanced😂

So proud of her😍

At 4 weeks old we did a newborn photoshoot! She was ever so good didn’t cry or poo on the lady 😂

phoebe milestone – started to smile around 2 weeks old and it’s the best feeling ever!

at 4 weeks old we gave her a dummy as she kept sucking her bottom lip and she was crying like she needed comfort we tried the mam 0-2 month dummy and she took to it so well and it helped her settle so much quicker because she clearly needed something to soothe her and no I didn’t just shove a dummy in because she way crying. She still cried after giving the dummy. The dummy was their clearly and purely for her own comfort when needed.
