hi there i hope i can join you, my daughter was born 11days late on the 9th of april 2008.
is this the right group
yep its the right group!!!
Welcome....
Thank you. at the moment we are breastfeeding well. solids arent to popular with her.. and neither is the coolboiled water she has in her bottle. she just wants boobies. she cant live on boobies can she. :P
and she and her brother and in cloth all day and disposables at night
Yeah we are still boobie fed here and full time cloth users!!!
I am trying more so infant led solids so finger foods, which she loves!! (not that much goes in) she not a fan of vegies yet, but like mango and cooked apple.
might be the way to go here too. because she likes to grab her rusk and it goes straight in her mouth. even though she has no teeth she definatly is slowly eating it. its amazing. i love going through this stage all over again.. the exploration :D
Yeah we have one tooth here.... and another 3 just ready to cut
she loves her bickies... i have been giving her arrow root biccuits and they go down a treat.. as well as up her nose, in her hair but she gets so excited when she sees one
does anyone else have a girl named ruby?
Hi K.A.L., Welcome to the thread.:welcome:
Hey Shoegal, how did the wedding go? Did you have a chance to show Baxter the ocean? if so,How did he take it? Taking hunter to WA for a few days in a weeks time for a family do, cant wait to take him to the beach.
We had intended to be fully cloth nappies too, but Hunter was so small when he was born, that he had to go into disposables, then when he was big enough, we had gotten used to the convenience. Mind you even though we feel very guilty about using disposables, the amount of detergents, bleaches and phosphates that go down the drains with cloth kind of balances it out. Plus it has been proven that there is only a tiny part of the nappy that isnt biodegadable, and in fact, worms LOVE to eat most of the nappy. So my guilt is usaged.
Well thats my 2 cents worth.:nappy:
(At least I was able to breast feed even if I didn't get my natural, painkiller free, birth, and couldnt go all organic. Babies never go to plan. Babies don't understand "plan". Just like they don't understand "stuck in traffic" when they are hungry, and your driving.)
Congrats on the teeth! (Not looking forward to that!)
:pms:
LL- each to their own, but do you know that the very first disposible made and used has still not broken down?
but yeah i very much dounbt a baby as little as your bub woud have fit into any type of cloth!!!
FARK... Annika has just wandered out of her bedroom
Thank heavens they don't make the like that any more, or I really would be beating myself up.:rolleyes: Not every thing was made better in the "olden days". But life is full of compromise.
Tonight we tried stewed apple. Not really sure about it. things certainly got messy, when usually he tries not to let anything escape. Loves his grub. He has no problems with the rice cerial, and even opens his mouth for it. I think your own reaction has a lot to do with wether he likes some thing or not. Every time Hunter has tried some thing new, he has a mouth full, gets this "OMG what the F it this??!!" look on his face, like he's going to spit it out, then looks at me. I give him a big smile and do nummy-nummy noises,(try to look enthusiastic) and he gives me a big smile and then is quite happy to eat it.
How does everyone else get on, getting bubbs to try new foods?
Hi LL
My little fella has been great with new foods.
He LOVED carrot when when tried that, and now chews on raw carrot sticks (but only at the moment cause he hasn't bitten chunks off..when that happens he'll stop having them til he has chewing totally mastered!).
He loves his rice cereal, and we are heading to weetbix probably next week and also starting to introduce lunch...may still be vegies at this stage, maybe fruit.
So far he's having:
Potato
Sweet potato
Broccoli
Zucchini
Carrot
Rice
Rice Cereal
We'll start on some toast soon too, and also going to start giving him some meat to chew on.
Lisy are you using the groovy biodegradeable nappies? I like them, only one piece isn't biodegradeable. Although, it isn't cloth nappies, which I dreamed of using but only used for three months (sigh), it is a compromise. They still take way too long to break down, and aren't "natural", but hey, I gotta do what I gotta do - I had one HELL of a first six months with my son, it's amazing I got a nappy on him at all most days!
Regarding food, we are on the allergy schedule, only breast milk until at least 7 months and then one new food every three days. Not how I wanted it to go (much like everything since I got pregnant really) but his little gut got mulched by the birth antibiotics and now he reacts. I am building up his gut flora and it has really done wonders. But I am not risking a sensitivity, which is much harder to reverse once they have it than it is to prevent.
Even though he is strictly breastfed, he is sleeping longer now and feeding less. I hear (as a kind of joke) that you get one of two babies - either one that sleeps well early on and then their sleep goes to the pack at six to 9 months; or a baby that sleeps poorly until six months and then starts to sleep well and then stays sleeping well. You'll never know how hard I pray I have the latter! Lemme tell ya. He has a 6-6.30pm feed, asleep by 7, wake to feed at about 2/3am and that's it. He has taken to waking early recently, which I am not enjoying at all. He used to eventually go back to sleep but with the summer sun he is up earlier and staying up, then wanting a nap RIGHT when I need to get up to get DD ready for school, 7am. So he ends up a ratty mess as I keep him up until 9am when we get back from school. So I'm about to black out the room even further, as it is already dark but obviously not dark enough. Full moon recently has him all boogedy too. He is on one of his Wonder Weeks, I swear. He's a clingy, whiny sod at the moment. But he is teething too.
We found "some" relief with Hyland's homeopathic teething pills (dissolve on the tongue). And he has a pain stone on his leg that I taped there. I had the stone, which he chose from a pile, put into a frequency machine so it is made for him, inbued with the frequencies of over 300 different types of pain, and 250 different types of stress. When he isn't wearing it, oh boy, not good. But even when he is wearing it, the few days just before the tooth cuts the gum are still rough. I use white willow bark extract, which is where they get aspirin from. It is gentle enough that it is used in some teething remedies, but works like aspirin. Chamomile tea - a very strong strong brew given in a baby syringe is also a treat as it is milder pain relief than willow but it calms them enough to sleep well.
Anyway, good to hear from you all and welcome Kids!! :) I stopped checking in on this thread so often but I'll start doing it again as it is moving along a bit again now.
Wedding was fantastic! Getting home at 1.00am then feeding 6 hours later was not so fantastic, a wee bit tired! A bit too cold to go swimming at the beach but we are going to the heated pool on Saturday with DH to see if Baxter likes the water. He better since we start infant swim lessons next week!:
We are in the midst of Operation Unwrapping. He slept with one arm out last night, and again this morning, but went back to being fully wrapped this afternoon, *sigh*.
Baxter isn't really interested in food yet, so I'm not pushing him into it yet.
Gotta go, boy awake.

Well, turned out that the stewed apple was not a good idea after all.:( We were up half the night with tummy aches, and have been really unfappy today. Had some REALLY explosive nappies, and LOTS of farts. One nappy exploded while we were out shopping. Couldn't get him cleaned up properly till we got home. omg what a mess!!! He has a way of shooting it up his back between his shoulders.... little bugger.
Shoegal: Hunter was wrapped till he was 3 months. Being a premmie..(I'm getting sick of saying that)... it was manditory, as he "hadn't been born yet", and so had to be kept womb like. But he made the decision on his own that he was not going to be wrapped, and don't even think about ever doing it again! I guess Baxter will set his own time. Good luck with that.
Fire: Looks like I've got that first type of baby. He was great at night, now he's a rat! And it's unpredictable as to when he'll want a feed, day or night. Usually 2 hourly during the day, some times hourly ,some times five hourly. I just can't plan anything.
Woohoo!
Tooth number two has surfaced!!!
Lisylee - your description of encouraging Hunter to eat was adorable! I can just imagine your smiling face doing 'nummy-nummy' noises :goodone:
Just a quick update: Liam's nearly crawling. He gets on hands & knees and rocks - then tries to launch himself. He's managed a 'step' every now & then, but is still getting frustrated with it!
Tonight we finally had some success with solids! I baked a sweet potato in the oven wrapped in foil (*****ed holes in it and washed it first), then cut it open & scooped out the good inside bit (left the discoloured outside bit) and mushed it up with a spoon. Then I put small amounts onto my finger - which he gleefully put in his mouth. Once he discovered the taste - he was gobbling it up. That was, until he put my finger too far in and it hurt/was uncomfortable - then he got grumpy, but he was very tired too. However, I am very encouraged :hooray: Will try again tomorrow - but am hoping the sweet potato doesn't clog him up like it did to another bub I know...
I reckon he's just gone through a wonder week as he was very unsettled and threw his nighttime routine out the window. One night we were still getting him to bed around 11pm! He's beginning to re-establish his day-time naps (was 3 a day, now seems to be heading to 2 a day). However for the last 2 nights he's done his normal routine of going to bed around 8.30 pm and only waking up once during the night. He normally 'wakes' for the day around 6.30 am... I'm ok with this as I get up and spend time with him before heading off to work at 8.30 am.
Personals! :
K.A.L - welcome!!
Shoe - good luck with the swim lessons! I'd love to be doing that with Liam, but I daren't try until I check about his cleft. He might not be able to hold his breath like regular babies... Good luck with operation unwrap too.
Fire - :hug: to you... I reckon you've had the most challenging run of all of us... Kudos to you mate! I'm :pray: that there's no sensitivities for you.
BW - wow with all those foods! Does he have teeth yet?
Ness - Liam discovered some sposies that I had at the change table station for 'just in case' and looked at them as if to say 'WTF are these???" :lol: They probably don't even fit him anymore!! ha ha ha...
Hi to anyone I've forgotten...
Woot BW. Every tooth surfaced is one less agonising week of tears and sleep I reckon.
I bought chamomile extract yesterday, a glycetract (non alcohol) and it seems to work well. Much stronger than even the strongest tea I could make. He is upset most of his awake time at the moment, and very hard to settle for sleeping, and I have noticed a difference with this extract. I'll see if it is coincidence after a few days use.
Yay, Nettie! I think your babe is rather forward; he seems to be the template for what is coming next I've noticed :lol:. I can't wait until Shmood is mobile. I find it SO much easier. With DD, we just made our house totally zen so I could free range her without worry and she was totally content and I got things done! We're doing the same with Shminks. I leave most cupboards available, and only lock one with stuff he really can't have yet. I am no fan of the "no" mama. I reduce my need to have to say no to my kids and life is sweeter that way. I'll never understand parents who don't adjust their homes and lives to accomodate kids and end up yelling no all day to them. So yeah, looking right forward to mobility, so give my back a rest. Although I have biceps Arny would covet from constant carrying.
Hey Girls,
Just popping in for one last time, to say goodbye :(
ATM I have a lil bubba in pain, so Im unable to type it all up again, so you can find my goodbye thread here.
Thank you all for your support.
OMG BP!! Good bye??!!
Please don't leave for good!:pray:
You will be missed. Take care.
Lisa:hug:
Bye BP!
Well, Operation Unwrapping was a success!! I am sooo happy! We went from wrapping one arm inside the sleeping bag to Baxter sleeping with both arms outside the sleeping bag! Plus, he slept from 8.00pm til 7.00am!
I do have one question though. I've put him in his cot without the sleeping bag and the cheeky monkey just rolls over onto his tummy, how will he fall asleep? Or do you all have tummy sleepers or constantly roll them back over? He can roll back, but only occasionally. Currently, the sleeping bag keeps him on his back.
SG
xo
well i hae no tips for any one
i have a non sleep who wakes at least 3 times a night, carries on, wont sleep wrapped, wont sleep unwrapped, wont slep in sleeping bag... so yeah wont sleep
i am just really tired of her teething crap atm and need a break, oh not to mention feeding every 3hrs so yeah fun
sorry to see you leave BP
Beatrix, I hear ya! Mine has only just gone to four hourly feeds, but some nights still does the three hourly ones. He also used to stay up from one to three hours, EVERY night, usually between 1am and 4am. I had a nervous breakdown, never had one of those before, that was fun. But I believe sleep deprivation helped that along. At that stage though, i was on NO sleep whatsoever, except for a one hour day nap each day. I lived like that for five months. Then teething hit. Just when things were getting good. So I find three hourly feeds a blessing. It's all perspective, eh. A tortured man would find a switch to a migraine instead like heaven, kwim? :lol:
Ci does not cope with teething AT ALL. He is a misery guts most of the time, and sleeping is hit and miss. Always poking in his raw sore mouth, poor sod. But I have a couple of remedies that seem to soothe him.
SG, did you ever resend your story? Regarding sleep, my little guy sleeps like CRAP on his back. Only recently has he taken to it at all. He sleeps on his tummy very well, and I believe, if I could have left him on his tummy most of his sleep issues may have been resolved. But his nose got blocked up when he was on his tummy, so I had to sleep him on his side or back after his first wake.
6 years ago I spent ages putting my daughter onto her back every night, like a good little SIDS avoider and she had a bald patch like a good little sids avoider kid. I felt like a total ass for it though, because WHO sleeps in one position (esp the back) all night? Who?! No one. But I made her do it, no wonder no bloody kid sleeps these days.
I also learned that our culture has high sids rates, but other cultures don't, esp cosleeping cultures. One main finding a good researcher has unearthed is that second babies and babies on second hand mattresses died of sids at a significantly higher level. They are saying that second babies often get the same mattress the first one got, hence the statistic of second hand mattress deaths.
The statistic of sids babies found on their tummy is due to the face being in direct contact with the used mattress. This researcher has found a particular bacteria in these mattresses that the babies also had in their systems at the time of their deaths. The rule to "sleep baby on her back" was because sids babies are often found on their tummies, but they didn't know why, they just assumed it was suffocation or something. When a baby dies of sids, it is a death of "unknown" origin. When a baby dies of suffocation, it is suffocation - suffocation is NOT sids. Many parents confuse this.
Sooo, putting all that together, I decided that with a new mattress, I'm sleeping my baby how he obviously prefers to sleep. I notice that now he rolls around, he changes position all night from his side to his tummy, to his back and round again and sleeps SO much better. Some nights I hear him rolling around in there and he sleeps through the night! He still chooses his tummy above all other pozzies though. Like his dad. He sucks his thumb so laying on his tummy is a perfect position with his head to the side for his thumb to rest right there.
Meg, sad to see you go. I read your good bye thread. Not sure what happened but I know how these things can turn... I wish you and your family all the best.
So fire.. your little one is sleeping through now??
Well i went out and have just ordered a amber teething necklace.. i really hope it helps.. the next step i might take is to get my aunty (Reiki master) to perform some reiki on her... hmm actually i might get her to do that anyway..
Shoegal Benjamin was a side sleeper from the start (I actually flat out refused to put him on his back, because I believe (against all SIDS recommendations) that they (particularly Benjamin) run the risk of vomitting in their sleep and choking.
I went to a SIDS seminar as part of work well before i was pregnant, and to be honest, since then, I have held the recommendations in little regard.
BUT thats another story, which you're welcome to message me about but I will not post my opinions on the site.
once he learnt to roll Benjamin manovered himself to his tummy...now, he sleeps (still wrapped mind you) on his tummy, with a dummy...
Sids and kids would hate me, but Benjamin has never had sleeping issues, we get 2x 2-3 hours naps a day, and he sleeps from 6pm til 7am nearly every night (sometimes he wakes at 2am for a feed, but most nights is just a dummy return).
Fire, I agree with you regardig letting them sleep how they like, and also regarding the unknown origin part...whilst there are thousands and thousands of infant (and bear in mind s&k class any unknownly caused death of any child up to the age of 6 as sids), deaths a year, only a very small amount are true "sids"
Anyway, I don;t want to be at fault for leading anyone astray and having something (heaven forbid) happen, so my opinion will remain to myself, however, my boyo sleeps well...against all the recommendations, and I'm happy with that.
Just a quick update - Liam is crawling. Not constantly and efficiently yet, but crawling nonetheless. If it's short distances, he sort of commando crawls, but for further distances, he puts his head down and kicks with his legs (gonna get carpet burns on his forehead for sure!)... very cute!
He's supposed to be asleep right now, but I can hear him 'singing' and playing in his cot. He's been doing this occasionally. Once he whinges, I'll be in there & get him re-settled. But for now he's happy...
Not much more success with the solids. He only had one taste on Friday and didn't want any more. Even though I didn't want to try sweets before savoury, I'm thinking of getting some apples stewed & trying him on that - just to get the ball rolling.
Uh oh - he's started to whinge... gtg
Hi Guys,
Wow it has been ages! Hope everyone is going well.
Beatrix and Fire - I totally get you on the sleepless baby thing. Jack is still waking every 2-3 hours sometimes more. I'm just in a total state of fatigue, but I think my body is starting to get used to it now.
On the plus side he has been crawling since just before 6 months and is now VERY mobile, which seems to have made him happier during the day. The only bad bit is all the crawling around the bed at night when he wakes. I've been so tired on occasions that I have not heard him wake and call for me, but now he just crawls over to me and pats my face until I wake up :lol:. (we co-sleep with a co-sleeper attached to my side of the bed, so if he is not already right beside me he just crawls there when he feels like it!). Obviously he is sleeping unwrapped now. He has also chosen to sleep on his tummy some of the time. Only problem is he also likes to have his face mushed right into the pillow! Freaks me out, but he is adamant about the whole thing!
BW - good luck with everything, sorry to see you go.
Shoegal - What a good boy baxter is for sleeping so well unwrapped!
Nettie - Yay for Liam!! What a cleaver little commando boy!
Must rush, hope you are all well!
Hi everyone
Leyla - good to 'see' you back! Jack is crawling, wow! Baxter gets quite a bit of height on his arms when on his tum, but is nowhere near crawling. Hope you get a bit more sleep soon. :hug:
Janine - thanks about the info regarding the mattress and bacteria, I did know that we had to get a new mattress for number 2 baby.
BW - I appreciate your opinion, we have a BabySense monitor which eases my mind somewhat about not breathing. I guess my question was more about how to get a rolling baby to sleep...
Hello to Nettie, mgm, Lisy , Nessa and everyone else.
Us - Baxter had his first swimming lesson yesterday, he loved it! There were 6 other babies and mumma's in the class. He had immunisations and a weight check yesterday too, 7.010kg. Not much else going on, DH and I might go to Perth on Friday for the Home Show. We are currently building, rendering has been done on the outside and hopefully the gyprock will happen before Christmas.
Love to all.
SG

Gee girls, I alwasy feel so ...inadiquite... because Hunter is so far behind all your bubs. He still is not rolling, but this morning, while DH was holding him in sitting position on his lap, he actually stood up by himself, holding daddys hands. (that's NOT being pulled up!!!!) His legs are abit week, but he got there! Couldn't believe our eyes! Maybe he will be one of those babies that doesn't crawl, but goes straight to walking.
Off to WA this arvo.... Wish me luck for the long flight. Hunter has been so cranky lately, I hope he doesn't whinge the whole way. We think the teeth are on there way. After reading your posts through the week, I tried him on rusks, and he loves them. Have had to stop all his solids except the rice, as he has broken out on exma all over his body. We have to figure out what he's reacted to...
He's awake GTG
Safe trip Lisy, it is so hot and humid here ATM! But cool for the weekend.
Every baby is different, plus Hunter was a prem, don't be worried.
SG
xo
Hi Shoegal,
we have like a safe t sleep in our cot to actually stop Benjamin rolling around.
The one we use is ALOT cheaper than a safety sleep and is actually a goldbug safe changer, but with the straps extended it goes all the way around the mattress.
It clips up around his waist and he cant go anywhere, we actually got it though cause of his reflux wedge, he scoots down the bed otherwise!!!
LisyLee just quickly, did the eczema start before or after you started rusks? They have wheat in them it could be that.
We've been lucky, no reactions to anything...but we've taken it slowly....one new food every 3-4 days....check for a reaction in that time, and if nothing, then the next one...its worked well!
Thanks BW, I'll check it out.:
SG
xo
PS - girls, you really should check out the first few threads of April Babies, I have to say I did have a chuckle over some of the things I wrote, how far we have all come!!
HI guys,
Just a quick one...how much water are your kids drinking?
Benjamin has always been offered boiled water during the day, first in a bottle when he was little, then at 3 months when we started solids, we started with a cup.
In the past couple of days he's really been skulling the water.
Tonight with his tea he drank over 20ml...almost 30!
He's still drinking his bottles and stuff, but I just wondered if I should be concerened at the amount or water he wants...its like he's dying of thirst sometimes!
BW - Liam's never really taken to the water. I must try harder so that he's ok with it for the heat of summer (we don't have or want aircon).
Liam had his 6 month imms today. Cried but seemed ok shortly after. He's been go-go-go all afternoon and is now utterly exhausted and very grizzly. I hope we're not in for a bad night!
He's also got some ecxma (sp?) behind his ears... poor thing. He now weighs 7.2 kgs.
Can't stay - Amazing Race is about to start! :p
Hey girls
We did our needle on tusday and omg i have freaky baby, she didnt even cry!! but has been grizzle bum ever since
we are now have 3 meals a day, toast for breaky, youghurt for lunch and fruit for dinner, we try veggies b4 fruit but have been very unsuccessful
Mj is almost crawling, little lazy bum, we are great at doing circles and heading backwards
So much going on at my house atm, we are painting and it goes on the market end of next week, cant wait for the new house to be built and fished arrghhh nice brand spanking new house!
Nettie- watching Amazing race too
BW- Mj wont really take a bottle so not much water heading down there
I don't think you're meant to prevent them from rolling into a more comfortable sleeping pozzie, are you? Is it just concern that they might suffocate or something?
I agree about the rusks, they are a high reaction food. Wheat and dairy. I wouldn't put wheat or dairy near a baby under the age of 1 even if they were the healthiest bubs on earth. They aren't good for the system. So try removing the rusks and see if there is improvement. If not, let me know and I have some other ideas.
Ci is mobile, creeping they call it, often backwards. Not quite crawling but he is days away from figuring it out I reckon. He got his new mattress today. DD has natural latex and organic cotton mattress and so do we, now Ci has a whizz bang mattress that has a coconut shell core and eucalyptus something something cover... cool bananas. Now to figure out how to work it, any ideas?
This is the predicament. He naps in the cot beside our bed and also goes into it at night until about midnight, the feed around then he is brought into our bed. I can't co-sleep the rest of the night, although I have been. I'd like it to be like DD was, on the mattress beside us (we'd all go on the floor for the time being until he is ready for the toddler bed we have), so we'd be in like a massive bed, but it would actually be his own little mattress beside me. But we don't want to use the foam mattress again now we have the good one.
If I had the money, I'd have two good mattesses, one for the cot, and one beside me. But we only have one. So one of them has to be the current foam one, either that, or I ditch the cot altogether. Essentially, he'd have the two beds in our room, the cot to keep him contained when he sleeps alone (naps, etc) and the mattress beside us. I'm afraid to ditch the cot, although DH would like to, because I'm not sure if he will fall asleep well without it. Currently, I put him down wide awake and he goes to sleep. I'd hate to mess that up; he might not do that if he has a whole whack of new freedom to roam the room, esp as he is about to become mobile.
Ack. Not sure how to do it, but I want to cosleep, but not THAT close. And I want the cot too... but not a foam mattress. I guess I'll have to use the foam mattress for one of them... which one?
Sheesh, that was a big ramble... sorry.
Just to clarify, we use the "seatbelt" as we call it, to prevent him sliding down the mattress (he is halfway up the cot, because he has a reflux wedge), he never tries to roll over completely as he likes his tummy, but he can move enough to turn his head and body side to side to adjust if you get what I mean....hard to 'splain!
Benjamin his going well with his foods, he's on weetbix for brekky, toast and vegies for lunch, and vegies for tea.
We were gonna start with yogurt this week, but he has an ear infection and is on amoxyl and we aren't going to introduce anything new til we make sure theres no reaction to he medicine.
he still (the little slacker) hasn't got the commando crawling thing sorted...he gets on his tummy, puts his arms by his side, and kicks and flaps like crazy!! He actually inches forward a little, but it must me soooo exhausting...he gets frustrated then rolls over...he's rolling around well though, I have actually come into the loungeroom a couple of times and had to look for him cause he's moved so far from where I left him!
I'm sure he'll get there.
He's got 2 teeth now...and I have a feeling (given that he had an ear infection a week before his first tooth, and he now has ANOTHER ear infection) that there may be another one or two in the way soon.
Hello to everyone!
And Janine, I'm glad its you with the mattress predicament, and not me...I have no idea what to suggest!!!
Hey girls, we're back.
Well, It's not the rusks, we started them before the rash came up, and still using them, rash is gone. We have no history of wheat, dairy or any other intollerances in either family, so I'm hopefull there. Anyway, he LOVES the rusks. We buy "Bellamy's Toothypegs". All organic, etc.
We are noth sure if it was actually eczema. I think it may have been a heat rash. It got worse on the first day in WA, but it was also 30 deg and raining, Hunter had never experienced anything over 20. But as the weather cooled his rash disapeared. We even got to the beach, and the little man got to go skinny dipping. (fully suncreamed!!)
We tried him on sweet potatoe tonight. Never seen him spit out anything so fast. Not even his reflux med goes that quick, and he HATES that! So we will try it again in a week or two. Maybe pumkin.
Hunter is also a very happy back sleeper. But MUST have his sleeping bag to sleep properly.
Still no rolling. But his legs are getting so strong. I really think he will walk before he crawls.
BW - Hunter doesn't drink ANY water. Should he?? He is BF. I thought that was enough.
As for the flying... As the flight over was after bed time, he slept the whole way:angelic:. but on the way back he was grizzly, and screamed most of the way from Melb to Hobart.:redface: We also both have ended up with colds :cold: due to the changes in the weather, as well as hayfever from allergies, and lookes like Hunter has the same allergies as me. Poor little tike. Sneezed and snuffled the whole time we were there.
Hope all is well with everyone, and Bubs are behaving.
:brunette:
Yes. I like smileys!!!:dance:

Hi everyone! I thought this thread had died - haven't had any notifications for AGES. must have missed one i guess...
sounds like you're all doing well. i'm still in the land of severe sleep deprivation but otherwise all's fine. no teeth, but dd has discovered how to crawl backwards (not all that helpful, she's very frustrated by it!).
well this is just to say hi and i'm still around - will do a proper post over the next couple of days.
