Hello all!

Charlie is having a nap for the first time in about 3 days so I thought I'd pop in and check out how everyone's doing.

Skye, I'm so happy for you hunny! It'll be so much funny going shopping now. I only just went out and got young Charlie some 'boy' clothes as he had far too much yellow and cream clothes! Lol!

Also went to see the CHN yesterday and Charlie is now 4.4kgs, which is almost a kilo up from his birth weight. He's a colicky baby - which is why I've been having a challenging week - but weight-wise he's doing marvellously. All I can do to help him with his rumbly tummy and pains is to give him loads of massages and warm baths, dose him up with Infacol drops (which only help sometimes) and if all else fails, to go for long drives and remind myself this isn't going to last forever. I love him so much that it's really distressing seeing him not be able to sleep, his little face scrunched up in pain.

But he loves his milk and as long as he's putting on the weight, I know he's doing okay, and that the wind in his belly is worse for him than it is for me, poor bub.

Also, another bit of good news, I turned 36 today, and this morning, I weighed myself and I am back to my pre-pregnancy weight! Now if I can only shed the kilos I put on having Ariani, Shay and Zaki....



love
