I am in disbelief!!! DS has gone for a nap and has stayed asleep now for 45 minutes!!! I don't know what to do with myself. I keep on going in and checking on him LOL! I lay down with him on the bed and he had a good feed and fell asleep. So for the first time I didn't stay lying beside him but got up and he stayed asleep!!!!! We will get there eventually!!!
BW: Yucky, I didn't have to take Metaform but there is nothing worse than taking meds that react badly with you.
Poppy: Yay for your little man, hopefully he can have some more big sleeps for you now.
Smithy: for Charlie and sleeping longer as well. I found once Tara was in her own room she slept better. I think it is because when she was in our room I woke up everytime she made a noise but since being in her own room when she wakes during her sleep cycles I don't hear anything and she then goes back to sleep.
Grub: Only one more pre arranged Mothers Group for us then we are on our own. I'm hoping the concensus is not 10am in the morning like it is now, it really mucks us up as Tara usually has her breakfast around that time and I have to take it all with me.
AFU: Well we are having our unsettled week this week. Night time sleeps are no problem but during the day..... I put her in bed when she is tired and she is now fighting going to sleep, we are having something like half hour screaming matches before she will consisder going to sleep and then she will wake herself up and we start all over again. Although yesterday I went to the hairdresser and for the almost 2 hours we were there she was fine, smiling and laughing at everyone and was more than happy to be held by anyone. So in public she is fine, it is just when she is at home. As I mentioned off to the hairdressers for me finally, the grey's were coming through to obvious and decided to go the chop as well. My hair was fairly long, and I was so sick of all the hair everywhere (i'm still malting) I decided to get it cut up to collar length. Should be much easier to do in the morning now and as my hair grows so fast anyway it will be long again before I know it. Oh, has anyone else been suffering from exhaustion lately (not the sleep deprived variety)?? I've been going to bed around 9.30 at night and crashing (sometimes I don't even hear Tara at night and DH gets up to check on her) and when I wake in the morning I'm still so tired. This has been for the past week to 2 weeks, maybe it is everything catching up on me now.
Well... not doing too badly. Just one nasty attack this morning, but if you'll excuse the TMI, it has cleared up the nasty issues I was having with constipation so I actually feel a lot better for it now. Just a bit - I should not post under the influence of sedating drugs! Don't worry - they're all on prescription.
Poppy: More than likely her Wonder Week. She was due for one at 20 weeks on EDD which would make her 21 1/2 weeks the correct time. Only took me 45 minutes to get her to go down for her morning nap, and she has only woken once screaming. I'm also going to try spacing out her food for her for the next few days, instead of doing the normal 3 feeds as she has gone off her food as well (typical wonder week sign) but I don't want her to decrease her fluid intake.
OMG, I also can't believe that Tara is 5 months old today. I tell you girls time has flown by so fast. It is hard to believe that she has been with us for that long...
yep as of yesterday at 2.50pm IM A GRANDMOTHER to a very healthy baby boy..chayse bruce 6pd 6 oz
well girls my secret is out ,the only one ive ever kept from the bb world ,only one bb girl has ever known about this little secret but im just to happy to be keeping it a secret any more actually ive always been a little bit embarassed by it but from now on i DONT CARE WHAT PEOPLE THINK LOL..
my 16 year old daughter gave birth yeaterday after a very long hard pregnancy,when she origaNNALY came home and we found out she was pregnant i could have killed her ,and was so worried what we would all do,but with a tone of help from my mother we have all managed very well and now my girl is a mummy
she had a 6hr labour with only a bit of gas towards the end and only a couple of stitches we are all so very proud of her and bubba boy is just beautiful.

thank goodness sophie is living with my mum atm or we would have 2 babies in this house lol.
Marcellus Thanks also kitchen reno's are hard work, hope you have a great BBQ
Smithy Thanks, I think it's the ruitine changes that are the hardest. One moment it's this then it's totally different. Learning to go with the flow. Hard for a capricorn Poor Charlie but I second the needles, loads of cuddles. for good sleeping well done. and congrats on being a granny, good timing.
BW yep I second the diagnosis but that means no dairy still for now. will have to do some more reading on it. I'm going to get a prescription from my pead. I took Metmorphine for PCOS. haven't gone back on it, just go slow on the dose it can be a bit explosive. hope your night was beta
Grub he was great last night, he's sleeping on his side. I know I know not good but it's working, I have wedges and check him but same thing 7pm feed sleep on me then down till 11pm then 3am then 6am No sling to settle just burp for 10mins and he was out like a light. Not holding my breath but fingers crossed.
Poppyfairy yayayayaya
ATM Linc is getting more settled no sling at night to settle just bottle burp nappy burb sleep. I did leave him on his back for a bit long last night and up came a feed but I know now to only help him with wind when he's sitting up after a feed. Oh well it's all learning.
I had a big BLOW UP at DH yesterday. I lost it with him cos I rang and he was drinking and having a great time and when he hung up he didn't say love you. I was so annoyed I'm ok with the working on his house but not the party. We spoke afer and it wasn't an organised gathering so I'm ok and he's coming home a day early which is good, My mum did her back and can't even lift Linc so really no help. I'm so ready for someone to take over for a couple of feeds and let me sleep. DH has been warned to be ready to land and be hands on right away. he did say he is so nervous with him cos he's so small. i said the only way to get over that is to spend time with him. So hopefully my blow up soaks in sometimes it's needed.
