ARGHHHHHHH!!! I had my first night of a really, really, really windy baby! She wouldn't stop screaming from about 3am to 4:30, and finally only calmed down when I cuddled her in bed under my arm with a little finger in her mouth.
The poor thing gobbled down too quickly cause she was really hungry (had a 9:30-3am sleep), and it was just awful. So I got crap sleep after that.
Deb - the hug-a-bub looks great!! And I was only copying everyone else, so its all good. As for the noises. Jenna is a real snorter, but I guess I am just getting used to the noise and sleeping through it. I couldn't bear to not have her in the roomwith us. I'm not sure what I'm going to do when she is too big for the bassinett. I think our front living room will turn into the nursery, and then the glass french doors can be shut. we will still be able to hear her though.
As for the third child - I was one, and I was the best baby!!! Or so I believe. My mum complains most about my brother - he wouldn't sleep at all, was terrible when it came to solids, and was permanently attached to Mum. Oh - and it was a horrendous labour. Mum definitly doesn't have fond memories of him!!
My fuzzibunz nappies are AWESOME!!!!! She wore one for about 5 hours, and I couldn't feel a thing - and there was no leakage. when I opened it up, the lining was dry next to her bum, and the padding was sopping, sopping wet. So happy! I am definitly going to get some more of them.
Happy birthday Noah! I hope mUm and Dad buy you lots of cool toys to make up for your little sister arriving on the scene! Trish, shane has the same thing at the local cemetary where we do the rounds every couple of weeks. His little brother died of leukemia at age 5 - he's there, so is his Mum who died a few years ago, as are the nieces who were stillborn over the last couple of years. Shane always takes a choccy for the girls and his Mum, and usually sits down to have a beer with her at Chrissie. Last week we glued a cool toy car to his brother's grave. Very sad visiting the babies section. but its a lovely cemetary, and his mum has a view of the bay!
Naomi - bugger about the reflux. I have a funny feeling I may get the same diagnosis. How long does reflux last for?? If tehre is light at the end of the tunnel, I can definirly cope!
1 month tomorrow for us! Unreal, it does seem to go quickly, although when I stop to think about the number of nappies I have changed, it puts the time in persepctive!
