Townsville Mums #3

Hello ladies. Please keep chatting in your brand new thread :)

The previous thread is here.

Wow, new thread. Does that mean we talk too much???

OK, question for all you wonderful mums. Adam is driving me nuts. In the last week he cries almost continuously between bottles and sleep. He is sleeping through the night still (well, 6 hours overnight) but is going to bed later and later. Last night it was after midnight before I could get him settled to sleep and even then, he refused to sleep in the cot, it had to be in the bouncer. Any ideas on what is happening?

Hi Everyone,

Courtney....maybe Adam has wind or reflux in between feeds that could cause crying??? try keeping him upright afterwards,or he could be over tired???. Do you have a day/night time routine for bed.....The only way Wyatt starting sleeping long at night was getting the right routine sorted...but it took 8 months!!! Its still early days so try not to stress too much coz babies can pick up on your vibes..just hang in there:)

Thanks Nicola. i am not stressed too much as I figure it is just a phase but it is limiting my time with Cooper. Cooper doesn't seem to upset by it yet other than to say "Adam noisy" but I would like to be able to play with Cooper while Adam watches without the screaming.

I don't think it is wind as Adam could shame a grown man with the burps he comes up with and I don't think he has reflux as it has only happened in the last week or so.

We do have a routine for bed for Cooper and am trying with Adam. Maybe I should be stricter with the routine as Adam's is a bit stop/start as I do it around Cooper. Hmm, there's a thought.

Hiya Ladies :p How are we all going?
Why do we keep getting new threads :o annoying lol...
Courtney hun thats no good about little Adam, hope he gets back into a good routine soon and hope its not colic??
Im in Brizzi still here till Sunday had my bros engagement party last night was ok, but DS got bitten by sis in-laws parents dog, i wasnt too impressed, more worried about Xav i guess but annoyed cuz they no this dog does it and didn't put it away altho there was kids around, but what can ya do :wall: ....
Other then that both kids are great ~woot~
So whats new?

is there going to be a meeting this week???

Hi Girls!!!

Telstra decided to be quick and connect me a day early, :woot:!!!

It was awesome meeting you all!! I am loving that I can do all my washing in one day and have it all dry at the same time!!!

Our house is awesome, piles of things to find homes for by thursday for a buyers inspection but oh well.

So when is the next meet and where? Lollipops is 2 minutes drive from here if we dont have much traffic at the roundabouts!!

Ali, glad to hear you are all settled in!! Sounds like you love your house!! That is great!! I would love to move to a new house haha!! No, our house is OK, just need to finish ding some things, but finding time is always an issue!

I am not sure whether I will make a meet this week. Am working this arve, and waiting for an electrician to get back to me whether he will be coming Thurs or Fri...so I will have to be round when he is here. Then I am working sat, so my week is pretty much gone!!

Anyway, I better go hang out my washing. Have no uniform to wear to work, I hope it dries in time!!

Hope everyone is enjoying the school holidays!!

Should be pretty much dry by now Shell, this is the tropics after all :p

Yes I am very naughty. I am online while I should be getting this place organised seeing as we have a buyers inspection tomorrow :o but I need a break.

Hi-Hi ladies, not ignoring you all, JUST FORGOT there was a new thread, so not been getting 'reply' notices - DUH! It's been one of those weeks...
WELCOME ALI!! Adjusting to the heat yet?
Only problem with washing drying so fast I can't get the mo-jo up to take it off when I've only just put it out - ARGH! So I leave it on the line, and then if I really can't be bothered - Oh bums, my DS turned the tap on and sprayed the sheets again with water... Oh dear. Will have to leave them out to dry... :)
Have a great day ladies!

;) Hey everyone how we all going?
Good here very tired i went shopping at DFO today wasnt as good as id expected but still got some good stuff :D...
Am feeling super tired now tho and Miss Indy does not want to settle she is over tired, dont no why they kids stayed home with my parents but only slept about an hr all day..crazy..The traffic here is hell scary :o i couldnt deal with it lol had some scary moments! omg...

Well we have been busy at home putting in gardens in the front yard. The joys of building a brand new house! Luckily Dave has had a week or so off and I have been cracking the whip getting him digging out grass. The soil is like clay and it's like hitting cement ugh. But at least it's done now. :dance:
How is everyone?
Emma you must be so pumped about Groote. I saw the photos of facebook, it looks really peaceful - is there any shopping though??
Ruby how is the walking/wedding prep going? I think I saw you walking on our many trips to the dump and getting soil.
have a great week
