Cloth Nappies #152.

Maz - lmao at 'closing for christmaz break' - smarty pants! :lol:

Gigi - Bilbs looked ADORABLE as a chrissy fairy!!

gigi - bilby looks absolutely adorable in those pics! I love that little dress.
The girls have been giving you some fantastic advice so far on your situation. Your dh has certainly put you all in a bad situation.
But let me tell you this, my mum ended up being a single mother to 3 young children by the age of 21. She left my dad, and it was the best thing she could have done for herself, and for us. I have so much admiration, and respect for her for doing that. We struggled a little at times through life, but we had a good life. We were happy, my mum was happy, that's all that mattered. When she left my dad she had nothing. He had (and still does) a high paying job, and never gave her a cent of it. He never paid child support, so yes, my mum struggled. But she got through. I guess her survival instincts kicked in.
So if it did get to the stage that you did leave your dp, then you need to believe in yourself that you can do it for you and bilby. You CAN provide for her. As FJ has said, you will get support.
Does he understand to the extent of what he's done to you, does he know you're feeling this way?

christy - that is so cute of what Matilda said about sesame street.

We've had a few sunny days this week so my itti bittis are slowly fading. But I'm still not happy. I think I'm going to have to buy some more. I hate the look of them.

arimeh - that large magical you sent me for Emily fits really good. I can't believe she's in large already :o

rhyb - do you have itti bittis in your stash? If not, I have a couple, you can suss them out next week. They are my favourite nappy for Emily. I don't have many, probabyl only 6, but they are just devine!

Yay got Christmas fluffy mail today!!! Thanks Maz!!!!

ekk........ my kid must be wasting away ....

at 8mths 2 weeks she weighs a grand total of 6.7 kg

Don't worry Ness - Miss M gains less than 100g a week - so I'm sure she won't be far off MJ!!!!

hmm i just looked and she has only gained aroun 400g in 2 mths...

fluffy mail here :) 4 BBB from the lovely mantaray (Igot 2 others & all her covers too the otherday)
Also 1 abby grow sleepy times
& a abbygrow minkee. these are great nappies. I have 4 now :D

kat- wt r u feedin him? dragon is only 4.9 n he's a few days older hehe. hw much did he weigh when he came out??

i think girls grow slower cos my friends DD is only ard 6kg n she 5.5 mths...

oh gosh, DS is 9kg and hasn't really started solids yet! crikey!

Remember that their growth slows dramatically after 6 months!! And especially when they start crawling and moving more.

Matilda was 6kg at 6 months and then 7.1 at 1 yr old! She was 4.04kg at birth.

he is on 4hrly feeds and sleeps from 10 through til 6/6.30am :D (co-sleeping) and he is on NAN gold.....
he was born 4.2kgs and this sunday he is 8 weeks.... I'm not small and neither is hubby!! LOL my other two were each born 3.8kgs... and they do say bubs get bigger each time....imagine what my next will be....he last got weighed 2 weeks ago (6weeks old) and he was 5.2kgs....

WOJB ~ BBH magicall (still coz he is sleeping...)

nana - Emily is 9kg as well. Each baby is different. Nina was a very small baby until she hit one.

so there's a chance he may fit his medium nappies for more than another 5 minutes? lol
