Sacha, that is great that Lachlan is sleeping so well, I hope he keeps it up for you!
If his eczema is bad you may need to get some cortisone cream from the chemist just to get it under control. I had to use it on Byron for about a week when he was about 3 months old and haven't used it since. I also used egoderm cream that you just get off the shelf at the chemist, might be worth trying that first. It is a bit smelly but nicer for babies skin than cortisone. Now I just cover him in moisturiser at the first signs of scaly skin or dry weather and it keeps it under control, but I don't think his skin is as sensitive anymore either.
LOL at not putting out either set of grandparents. We are like that everytime we go up to Cairns... make sure we spend equal amounts of time at each parent's home, don't want anyone to feel left out. It is nice that you are including MIL though, especially if sher missed out on quality time with the other boys.
Good luck with convincing DP to become DH. Men just don't seem to understand how important it is to us sometimes.
Amanda, how did your day out go? I managed to fit in a coule while MIL was staying, it was great!
I am way to forgetful to even attempt the mini pill. I wish I wasn't, I really miss the pill! Gee it is a great invention.
Cass, the growing does slow down. Byron grew just as fast as Edward and Elijah are. Got to size 0 by about 4 months, size 1 at 6 months. Once he hit size 1 we were ok, managed to get about a year out of that stuff.
Well I have been pretty busy. DH's parents are considering moving down to Brisbane so I drove MIL around caboolture and redcliffe to check out possible areas to live. I also spent some time by myself for once, I certainly made the most of the babysitter.
I have also started going to a group exercise class twice a week. It is at the home of a personal trainer who now has kids so started classes for other mums. Everyone there has at least 1 kid and all the kids just run around and play while we all do our workout. It is really good not being the only one trying to get rid of pregnancy weight gain!
Edward and I are both pretty hungry so better go, have a great weekend.
Sacha, great sleeping from Lachlan!! I haven't tried this myself but apparently moogoo is great. Go to the kids medical conditions thread and check there. I know quite a few BB girls use it and swear by it.
