Parenting After LT TTC ~ January - April 2008

I know, Willow. I can't believe it either. You should see him now, as soon as he gets dropped off he's off and playing. Even gives me a kiss and waves goodbye. He really has adapted well to it. I, on the other hand, still miss him soooo much.

Awww Sushee, it's awesome that he enjoys it though, makes it so much easier on mum.

My DD started preschool this year and I've had her standing at the gate at pick up time telling me to get back in the car and go home

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAZZ.I hope you had a great day today.

Not too much going on here atm. Sage is still having trouble with his tooth.
He has just discovered that he can giggle out loud now which is hilarious and oh so cute. He is rolling all over the place too.

I hope you and bubs are all ok. Its been a bit quiet in here for a while. I know how busy I am so I imagine you are all just as busy too.

Ohhh...Sazz...happy birthday!

Hope you had a fantastic day!

Mako...sorry to hear that Sage's tooth is still causing problems. Felix has got 2 teeth now...the 2nd was nowhere near as bad as the 1st...hope that's the same for Sage.

To everyone else...hope things are going well!

I've got the next week off...YAYAYAY!!! Will be so nice not to have to balance work and mummyhood for a little while. I still find it a real challenge. Both Felix and I have been sick...poor little Felix blew his first 'snot bubbles' yesterday...a real milestone!!!

So glad we bought a vapouriser a little while ago...makes a big difference to his sleep! Finally, he's started to sleep really well again...last night was 8 hours!!! Can't quite believe it...after 2 months of 2-3 hourly wake-ups, I'm so grateful!

Anyway...didn't want to make this all about me...

Hope all is well!

Happy Birthday Sazz for yesterday.

Luisa had her shots on Monday. I am glad I wasen't there as DW said she was crying so hard by the second one that no noise was coming out. She had no reaction other than a slight fever which is good.

This week has shown some great changes, better sleep patterns, including longer nights time ones. Virtually over night. She is smiling and interacting a lot more as well.

I think she has doubled in size. We will be finding out today as she has an appointment with the paedatrician today.

Hope all is well.

Howdy gang.

Celeste had that same awful cry Jason. It is heartwrenching. I didnt cry though, just felt like it. Luckily she had only had half a feed in the waiting room so after she started breathing again I just put her on the boob and it helped stop the sobbing. I gave her some panadol in the waiting room before hand and she has had another dose just now but having trouble going off to sleep so I tried the dummy on her. She has never been interested but she has taken it now and gone to sleep! I took it away after she was zonked. WOW, she has never wanted it before, she must have been really upset! Her checkup was good though with her hips a-ok. DH has hip displacia and hers were a bit clicky but now all good. She has some marks on her face/neck that I wanted to make sure were the kind that fade and they should be gone by 12months of age. She is doing all the right things developmentally so all is good! My checkup was good too and I got a pat on the back for doing my abdo stuff from after the c-section.

She has had a lot of development over the last few weeks also. She has always been very responsive and communicative but now chats away to everyone (even the doctor before the jabs) She now sleeps through the night if I make sure I feed her around 10 or 11pm. She is trying to roll. And the big development yesterday was grasping a toy put into her hand. She is much more interested in books now and I can show her an entire picture book twice through but a few weeks ago she would lose interest after a couple of pages. It is so exciting seeing them develop but scary how fast it is going too. I am kind of freaked out how fast time is passing. hehe.

Mako, how cute is the giggling Sage is doing??? Celeste does the inwards giggle but not outwards if you know what I mean. (She makes a noise as she draws breath inwards) I love that sound on commercials or whatever. Might even get it as a ringtone... soooo cute. Hope is tooth settles soon, poor lil man.

Monnie, enjoy your holiday!!! I bet you will love the extra time with Felix agian. Hope you are both feeling all better soon. Yucky for him with the snotty nose. Will be better when he can blow it! Great that he is sleeping better again though especially with working.

Hello everyone else. Have a great long weekend and stay safe!
We are going to Adelaide to get Pixi Photos done on saturday, I'm all excited about it.... planning what to dress Celeste in lol.
