Big Congrats Mako - and good luck with your scan. Will be sending lots of sticky vibes your waY.
Shannon - so sorry to hear that you have to do a stim cycle again. This TTC stuff really doesn't get any easier does it
Kelly - I think I need to send Jasmine around to get some sleeping lessons from Tara! Wow - 7 to 8 hours is great.
Possums - thanks for thinking of us. Hoping that 2010 is the year for you xx
Congratulations on the arrival of Trent Miss Magpie. Those early days of feeding can be difficult. As BG said perhaps jump into a BF thread and see if some of the ladies there can help. I found that with expressing I never got a regular amount. In the early days I was predominately BF Jasmine, but I did top up with formula and expressed milk. What helped me was to remember that as long as she was getting a number of good wet nappies each day and was also putting on weight - then everything was going well. Jasmine was a windy baby also, and to be honest I tried most things and they worked for maybe a short time, but then they didn't. It is often something that I just think they have to go through and grow out of - Sorry! I know that it felt like Jasmine would never stop having colic, but she did. They just have such immature digestive systems that all the new sensations can be a little overwhelming for them. However, if you are worried about it check it out with your MCHN. Good luck and ask heaps of questions!
Hi Marcellus, Lenny, BG, Sazzafrazz,egan and anyone else I have missed.
AFU - well we had a rotten night last might. We are currently in NZ visiting my mum which is great, but last night Jasmine was in bed with me and woke me up at 2:30am (NZ time - that is 12:30am AUS time) as she was crawling around the bed in her sleep and trying to pull herself up to standing also. I had to wake her up to get her to stop and then it took me an hour to resettle her - I placed her back into the cot and then at 5am NZ (3am AUS time) she started crawling around the cot - this time I woke to her standing holding onto the the rail and trying to climb out! Lucky I woke up as the side was down slightly, so she could have gone over the rail. Moral of this story is that the side now has to go up everytime she is in bed! As much as her sleep is still rotten, my little one is just amazing at the moment. She now has 3 teeth - the bottom middle 2 and a fang over to the left hand side up the top (out of order, but very cute). I think there are some more teeth on the move at the moment. She is crawling like a pro and pulling herself up on everything. Jasmine is almost able to clap and wave hello/good-bye. I really feel like my baby is no longer a baby, but this age is just so cool.
