Jed - hi - i remember talking to you when you were pregnant.
Abs - Charlie used to spit his food out till he got the whole eating thing in order, Charlie found the normal farrax very bland - I give him the Bannana farrax for 4-6months old - he loves that.
CHARLIE IS FINALLY ROLLING!!!!!!! YEAH YEAH YEAH - but now i find him in all sorts of positions in his cot!!!
Also - I have finally given the controlled crying ago - i was rocking charlie to sleep every time - now i can put him in his cot and walk away and he will cry for about a minute then go to sleep. To start with he would cry for 10 minutes but he got better and better - It took me sooooo much self control to not walk in there and hug him!!! ( ihad to make a coffee and sit outside, but i am soo glad i have done it now.
-
Hi all - sorry it's been a while - internet has been on the fritz.
YAY for Charlie rolling Jacci. But I know what you mean about finding him in all sorts of positions in his cot. And well done on getting Charlie to sleep on his own. It's so easy to create bad habits coz we love our bubs so much, but then it's a pain trying to get them out of them!
hehe abs - gotta love those late night rendezvous!
Josiah is doing great - loves his pumpkin and pear, not overly keen on apple, but getting used to it. Getting very round and sleeping great.
Anyway, gotta go and say goodnight to janae, speak soon

Hey everyone :hello:
Been MIA for a while, have been soooo busy. Went to Melbourne for a bit to visit with mum and dad. They loved seeing Abbey again, so cute to watch my dad with her.. he's never been a "baby person". Then when I got back i have been so busy with work and admin etc as its BAS time again arrgggh
So I have been trying to keep up
Jacci.. Yay on charlie rolling, its so cool isn't it, and yay for him putting himself to sleep.
Welcome back Jed... can't wait to hear all about CJ and how he is doing.
Theresa... That is great to hear that emma is doing well with the feeding tube.. hopefully it results in a much happier little girl for you.
Joy... sorry to hear your going.. hope that you will still come on when you get the chance and update us on all your news.
Amy.. good to hear Declan is feeling better.
As for Solids... we haven't started yet. Abbey seems interested, but not overly and becasue of her exzema we are going to hold off as long as we can. She has had a taste of apple, watermelon and rockmelon (just a lick) and the faces she pulled were so funny.
Christenings.. we are planning on getting Abbey christened but haven't had the time. We were thinking of doing it around her first bday (sort of killing two birds with one stone). Will that be too late? Nickers.. Well done for nixon behaving himself for you at his.
TME.. Have heard of these but haven't seen them yet.. what do they do dufferent to the original? It was so cute. Might get Abbey one for xmas.
late night rendezvous... (as Bel so elequently put it lol) we woke up this morning both going "did we...?" or was it a dream lol we must be tired to be doint it in our sleep lol :p
We got our photo's back from the photograper and they are sp cute.. I will upload them soonish (when I get the chance).
Abbey's excema didn't clear up with the first lot of cream the dr prescribed so we went back.. He prescribed another one that isn't really meant for the face but is ok if we only use it short time. He wanted us to use it for a week and see how it wen.. well two days later it has all but gone.. I am so happy, her face is all back to normal. :confetti:
Sorry about the rambling, my brain is all over the place lol and sorry for everything I forgot that I wanted to say lol.. I will be back on more so I can keep up better now. Hi to everyone hope you are all well.
Talk soon
Amanda
P.S. I forgot to add that Abbey has started teething.. Can feel little bumps under her gums now. She hasn't been too bad so far just a bit more clingy and a bit more pooey lol.
-
Morning all!
Jacci now you're in for it! He's going to be such a wiggly bum! Lol!
Amanda, can't wait to see those pics! I keep meaning to put the few that I liked on Charlie's website but have been very slack.
Amy bugger on the whole family catching the cold. It was like that here for a couple of weeks, and just sooo hard.
Abs, it's so hard when they go into their own rooms, I reckon. Hard for us, their parents, that is!
CC - I put Charlie down awake too. He grizzles and whinges a bit sometimes (not full on crying) and usually is asleep within 5 mins. I've never left to him to full-on cry, so don't think it's controlled crying. I do pick him back up if he gets past whinging and is getting upset, though, but haven't had to do that in weeks. He knows when he gets put in the cot, it's sleeping time and most times, his head is down and he's cooing himself to sleep before I even leave the room.
Solids: well I really wanted to wait until after 6 months, but Charlie had other ideas. Was mashing potato with one hand, and with Charlie in the other, when he lunged for the bowl, grabbed a handful of potato and had it in his mouth before I knew what had happened. Plus he swallowed it lock, stock and barrel. Lucky I hadn't put salt, butter or milk into it yet!
That was a couple of days ago, so I made up a little bit of rice cereal and offered it to him. Not only could he bring it to the back of his throat and swallow, he didn't drip any out. At one stage, he was sucking on the spoon, and holding on to my hand so that I couldn't take the spoon away. I think maybe he's ready to slowly start, then. :rolleyes:
-
Sushee - I can only imagine how much trouble i am in for!! no leaving him on the change table now!!! I am the same as you - i have never left him to full on ball. It is so much easier when i put him to bed now - he knows when the curtain is closed and i take his tracky pants off then it is time to go to sleep.
Cousins - charlie's cousin got weighed the other day - he is 8 months old and he is 69cm and weighs 8.5kilos - i can't believe how much bigger charlie is than him!!!
-
Hi everyone,
Just a quick one from me as I am supposed to be working!!
Great to hear that you are all going so well!!
Jacci - Tyron rolls over all the time and it is driving me crazy at night, Monday I was up 8 times during the night to do nothing else but roll him onto his back and tuck him in!! Last night it was 4 times!!
Amanda - We have Tyorn's naming ceremony on the 22 October, but a year isn't too old, my friend just had her daughter christnened and she is nearly 2!
Sushee - -good to hear that Charlie is doing so well with his eating, I tried solids for the first time on Monday, Tyron didn't want a bar of it!!
Hi to everyone else, I wil ltry and come back on later!!
-
Hey all omg so sorry I have been MIA I just forget to log on here sometimes!
declan still wakes at elast 2 times a night for a feed this is really starting to wear thin especially when it is more than that like the other night OMG I am so tired! I am still boobie feeding him he refuses to take a bottle so I have no choice even if I wanted to formula feed him, however he does drink from a cup so at least I will be able to keep him hydrated come summer!
Declan has rolled a total of 3 times now hehehehe he can almost sit by himself and he will walk if you hold him up. Doesn't crawl yet but pushes himself right up off the ground!
We have started swimming lessons or swim play whatever there are pics on our website if you want a look c! it is lots of fun! I go with my mums group which is a super group now all the not so nice mummies have left heheheh!
We had our 6mth check on Friday and Declan is now 68cms long and weighs 8.4kg so he is doing well! We have our shots tomorrow can't say im looking forward to that one!
I hope everyone is doing swimmingly well and I hope to catch up on this thread soon!
-
Well hi there.
I have finally gotten some me time!! - i am going to get my hair cut tonight - so that will be nice and peaceful.
Started playing racquetball yesterday - was lots of fun first time i have every played - I actually won!!! - yeah....
Hope everyone is having a lovely day - I had a crap one doing the BAS. anyway

Jac

Becky- those pics are soooo cute of Declan in his swimwear!! Nixon's first swim lesson is this saturday, we are also (like u) doing it with mothers group exept most of the dads are doing the swimming. They started last weekend but we were away. I've got him a little outfit to but all the girls said they only want them to wear the nappy?? I wanna dress him in his little rashy!
Jacci- Yay on Charlie rolling!!! cool isnt it! Nixon has only done it 5 times (& counting!) so far. And thats from tummy to back, he still cant work out back to tummy.
LOL Sushee at Charlie grabbing the mash potato! Nixon still pushes alot out with his tounge and only on rice cerial for now.
Amanda- glad u had fun in Melb with your parents
went to mums & bubs movies today with some from mums group also. It was packed! looked so funny with all the prams lined up at the front! i must say considering how
many babys there were everyone was really well behaved
hi to everyone else gotta run cooking dh nice meal its his 30th bday today! (also planned a surprise party tomorrow night, now i have to take one of my digs for surgury as she has a huge gash on her leg (dont know what from) There goes $400......
Geez even though it feels like bubs has always been a part of our life (In that just meaning used to preparing to leave the house well b4 we do or broken sleeps) where has 6 months gone!!
-
That's great that the christening went well Nickers & Amy.
Ooh another niece/nephew, that's great Nickers. Hope ur lil man's feeling better now. You too Amy.
Have fun at dinner & party. Hope ur doggie's ok. Cute pickies, looks like 3 of them are havin a ball.
Oh no Joy, lurk all u want & post whenever u feel like it, even if it's every few mths, dont feel obligated. Being a parent can be very busy. :)
Glad to hear all's going well with ur lil man though.
Welcome back Jed, hope all is well. :)
Jacci, WTG on rolling, hehe, yep know the cot awkward posi's, hehe.
Hehe Bel, good to hear u have a healthy lil boy. I was just looking at Holly's ankels & wrists this arvo thinking how chubby they look, hard to tell there's an ankle/wrist there, she's packin on the weight now she's almost fully weaned.
Amanda, hope work settles down for you now, not fun when work is hectic. A girlfriend had a surprise naming ceremony on her son's 1st b'day. That's xlnt news on the excema. Lovely pic of u & DH. Tried your photo album but said it's removed/expiring.
What a crack up Sush, hehe, that would've been funny to see.
Hehe Lisa on Tyron rolling heaps, but not on u loosing sleep though. I generally just check on holly once b4 bed & put her back in place if she's all the way out, but she tends to like to get half out & roll onto side, so I just leave her. :)
Bec, have u tried expressing or diff teats? The pigeon peristaltic nipples are 95% like a nipple, that's what we use. Holly wouldn't drink the formula but she'd drink expressed milk. On the 4th attempt, I squirted most of 20mls into her mouth & she sucked the rest between crying, then the next day, she drank a full bottle no probs. :)
Cute pickies & in their swimmers.
Solids: onto solids tomorrow, well 1-2 tspns of rice cereal at lunch.
Needles: 6mth needles & last dose of gastro vaccine done, bit of a cry again, to be expected. DW=6.48kg, L=64.5cm.
Teeth: noticed Holly's 2nd bottom tooth cutting through on Mon, she was bit grizzly for 2.5 days this time, is mostly through now.
Work/Feed: well first day didn't have much sleep, broken sleep (I fell asleep 11pm, feed 2:45am, up 4am & on/off with leaking/sore/hard BB's, up 5:45am) asleep, but Holly slept through last night & bb's settled down, down to 1 morning feed/day, loosing supply now, as topped up with 60ml formula this morning. She went well at child care, they said she was a bit grizzly on her first day & only had 1/3 of 1st bottle & 1/2 of 3rd bottle. She seemed to be enjoying herself, giving the ladies lovely big smiles, so all good.

Shell - I feel for you having to let your boobs dry up - I remember on my third bout of mastitis i said thats it i'm giving up and my boobs were soooo sore and hard - like rocks - sor tof reminded me when i woke up a few days after i had charlie and my boobs were rock hard for the first time. glad Holly is liking Daycare - Charlie is nearly 10cm longer than her - she would be so nice and little and cute - i could just imagine - she is beautiful your photo's are great.
Nicers - charlie is doing the opposite he is rolling from back to front then getting stuck on his belly and screaming.
Solids - Charlie is eating nearly everything - he has farrax and fruit for brekki then yoghurt at lunch then he has vegies ( broccoli, pumpkin, potato, carrot, cauliflower) all pureed up - he loves it! today he sucked on a cruskit he loves them!
Just finished playing Basketball - the only problem with playing at 9pm is you don't feel tired for atleast an hour after you finish. so i won't get tired till about 11.30.....
Hope everyone is going great - hopefully i will get a whole night sleep....... I have to work all day tomorrow - mum has the day off so she will have charlie.
-
:hug: Abs - Was just looking through the "new arrivals thread" Just realised that you put my birth of charlie in there back in april - just wanted to say Thanks.
-
Morning everyone
No worries on that Jacci - I think we were all wrapped and excited to hear each others news and to spread the word
So much has happened here since I was last on 2 days ago... I was sick all day yesterday... got up (so Jen could sleep) for the 1.30am feed yesterday - changed Jordy got the bottle ready, sat down then called Jen to get me a bucket or something... she didn't make it in time and I was sick all down my front and on Jordy's clothes.
Threw up several more times before 8am then it was the reverse. Then had work calling me all day even though they knew I was having a sickie
All I could fathom foodwise all day was Homebrand Lemonade. So brekkie this morning was yummy scrummy cereal and fruit toast with proper butter :D:D
-
bugger abs - do you know what was wrong?? was it just a bug or something to do with your diabeties
-
Morning All Abs I hope you are feeling better now!
Jacci can't believe you are playing sport already I have so not enough energy to run around mind you since I sold my car I have to walk everywhere
Well best be off to the doc's talk soon
Bec
-
Bekky - Hi there. I started playing netball 6 weeks after i had charlie and i had a c section- I play netball monday, Raquetball wednesday, Basketball Thursday, and go to aerobics 3 times a week. I think i am just a gluten for pain!!!!!
I have a friend who had a baby the same time as me and she was very fit before she had the baby , she still doesn't play sport or anything - some peole handle it very diffirently.
I thought Declan would of lost some of his hair but he seems to have kept it all he looks sooo cute - little charlie is still bald as a badger....
-
Jacci Declan has already had 2 hair cute heheheh and is due a third almost it grows so damn fast! It has lightened up alot but thats about it well he did loose a nice baldy patch at the back hehehe put that has started to grow back now he isn't on it all the time!
I had a c-sec to and I was told I was not allowed to play any sport untill Declan was 6mths old esp no sit ups or things like that! I still get pain in my scar now some times I think they left a pair os scissors inside me or something!
Shell I have tried that many different types of bottles its not funny I can get him top drink from them after a tantrum or 7 but he wont feed for anyone else so really defeats the purpose!
2nd babies - Hey just wondering is anyone considering TTC soonish within the next 2 years like!? I am planning to start trying so that the baby will be born late 2008 so Declan will be 2 1/2 I am going to try and avoid another winter bubs as it is too cold down here in Tassie!
-
Bekky - My Doctor said my scar was all good - I don't feel anypain. I have to laugh at the Scissors - hehehe
I will probably start trying at the same time as you. I would like Charlie to be toilet trained maybe.
-
well took our husky to the vet thismorning to get stitched up, had to take our boxer too so he wasnt left out! after i dropped her off i took Nixon & Marlu for a nice walk!
Ive spent a bit of time outside today as poor Marlu is very lonely without his sister. i think she is going to come home with a bucket on her head so she doesnt pull the stitches out but keeping the other dog away from them might be a challenge.
Becky- did u just watch that show last week where surgical instruments got left behind?!?!?! i did, omg make u worry a bit how easily this can happen.
I had a c/s too, i have been doing SOME excersice sine about 2months, i dont play any sports just now but walk/gym. i still dont do it often enough and so annoyed at myself that i still have my baby weight to loose. the goal was originally 5-6kg by 21st Oct, well now thats 2 weeks away and i havent lost a thing....grrr....no one but myself to blame though
abs- i hope u start keeping stuff down, did u make it to the docs?
shell- good luck with holly starting solids!
Jacci- pass some of your motivation over to me will you!
-
Nickers - your poor dog - it would be hard to keepthe other dog away - especially when they are probably soo used to playing. How are the dogs with Nixon. Our dog has been really good - just gets a bit ecited.
You'll have to change Trents age - how does he feel about turning 30
-
nah, was just one of those badder 24 hour bug things. Doubt it was dinner on Wednesday night though thats what the first expulsion was full of :p Jen had the same thing as me and she was fine
Still a bit sore around the chest/ribs but getting better
Good to see you back Becky
Jen also had a c/s, she's been walking a bit, probably not as much as she'd like. As you say Jac, everyone is different
And I gotta change my age next Sunday (15th) :( I catch up to Jen again
Oh and gotta mention, Jordy is being a little ***** today with his sleeps. Simply is not interested in sleeping. Maybe we need to length his up-time between sleeps. Until now its been basically 2hours after waking you could put him back down again and he'll go... Now that he knows how to play with the mobile etc thats what he'll do for a while. Today he's putting his feet out the side or kicking the rungs on the side of the cot
-
Abs - I have had to lengthen charlies awake time - I don't put him in his cot now till i see him rubbing his eyes and then i put him inthere and he's normally asleep in about 10 minutes - he is the same as jordy - i find charlie with his legs out of the cot inbetween the slats and stuff.
-
hmm, scarey moment a few minutes ago
he had once again put his legs out, then using them as leverage rolled himself over with his face hard against the mattress... Jen heard him crying differently to normal just sooking. Took the two of us to sort him out and I know how to give the special cuddles that soothes him
-
HI everyone
Abs, hope jordy is ok now..how scary.Also i think at this age they start to stay awake longer. like jacci,I just put abbey down when she starts to look tired. oh and hope you are feeling better now.
Nickers.. hope your dog is better soon
Jacci..WTG on the exercise.I wish i had half of your motivation.
Shell.. hope it doesn't take long for your bbs to settle down again.. it sounds painful.
I have updated my website with the professional photos we had taken so everyone can have a squiz.
:hello:
-
just picked my baby (Tahoe) up. apparently the wound was old. now i feel horrible becuase it musy have happened while we were away. also feel annoyed our friend who stayed here never saw it.
anyway she also said the wound was quiet deep so she stiched it up & had to put a drainage thing in her leg. she never cries (she howls like a typical husky) but as soon as she saw me she just started crying & hasnt stopped.
i have to put the bucket thing on her head and seperate the two dogs. now that & we are going out tonight for dh bday i feel bad for leaving her!!!
ofcourse Nixon was crying in hunger the whole time while i was trying to sort the dogs out!
ouch poor jordy! gosh they get themselves into some pickles once in the cot and not wrapped dont they!
amanda jumping on to look at your pics now
-
Oh Abbey is a stunner!! You & dh dont look so bad yourselves there Amanda! Lovely pics
-
Amanda - they are great photo's we are getting our family ones done in december.
Nicers- i hope your dog is ok.
-
Nice pics Amanda - Jen hated the idea of "flowerpot" type photo's that most professional's use ! Do you get the negatives ? (or High res shots if digital )
And hope your pooch is okay Nickers... hmm, not good about the person looking after them while away :)
Jordy was fine within a couple of minutes of me cuddling and soothing him. Didn't help that I bumped his head on the aquarium mobile when I was picking him up - oopsie. Of course at 4.45, Jen knew he was tired but couldn't settle him... I held him for about 20 mins until the first eye rub. Put him down, turned out the lights and before I was out of the room, he was asleep - he is sooooo my boy :) I love working from home and being able to do things like that
-
Abs - You are very lucky for being at home.
Gav is joining the firebrigade now so i think i might have to go back to work full time.
Not that thats a major problem coz its what he has wanted to do all his life, but i am more worried about the fact that i need to move to were ever he gets posted
-
i know i am jac - even more happier that I have full access to the computer systems at work as of yesterday... means I dont have to go into the office at all for the time being. Even our payslips are gonna be online from this month (paid monthly)
Hmm, good luck with Gav's new career... and just after you bought a new place too. How often do they get moved around ?? Will make it hard getting jobs and schooling etc etc
-
abs - i hope he doesn't get in ( i know that sounds bad but i don't want to move) he has already been told he is nearly a sure foot in - I can't tell him not to go for it because he let me studdy for 4 years would be bad of me to do the opposite.
BTW - i had to put a bumper up in charlies bed to stop him rolling over into the slots of the cot.
Charlie had 4 or 5 bad nights hopefully Jordan will come good - has he got any teeth yet - my mum says charlie has got some coming but i can't feel them
abs - another qst for you - what is the cheapest Broadband i can get??? thought i'f ask u coz you are a computer wiz
-
Thnx Jacci. My gosh u keep busy & fit, wow. Goodluck with urs & dh's job prospects. A broadband/adsl plan comparisons website is avail in my www - fave links - homepage - links - other.
Bugger Abs, hope ur feelin better. Gotta change my age on 16th & I catch up to DH too, hehe. :)
Really Bec, oh no. Don't joke bout the scissors, that sort of thing has happened hey, hehe, just kiddin. TTC#2 probably within the next 2mths.
Oh ur poor doggie Nickers, hope she heals quickly. Hope dinner goes well.
Lovely pics Amanda.
Sush, Holly's now doing the smiley face (mouth only open bit but big smile & makes a noise, as opposed to her normal big wide open mouth smile) like Charlie in his movie file from few mths ago, just noticed her doing it since Fri.
Didn't do a bb feed today, as yesterday morning she still drank a full bottle afterwards. They settled down alot the next day, when they were big n sore was coz silly me cut out 2 feeds in 1 day, so self inflicted.
Sleep, I put Holly down when she starts to grizzle a little.
Found Holly asleep on belly last night, then around other way with back against slat this morning, put pics on www, wiggle bum, hehehe. Also put some pics of her first solids, she pulled all sorts of faces.
-
deckers had his needles yesterday and didn't even cry such a brave boy so proud of him especially since he screamed the place down with the others! But he has been grizzly ever since got a bit of a temp now too have dosed him up with panadol I hope he feels better soon!
Abs omg at jordan rolling into the slats deckers can't do that A because I still wrap him he wont sleep other wise and B because he doesn't roll much yet!
Shell good on you for TTC in a couple of months I wish I was to but dh isn't even keen on another bubs no idea why dj hasn't been a prob1 anyway we came to an agreement if i loose 15kgs which should make me a sz 12 we can start trying! I only have 2yrs to do it and if i don't im not allowed to have another bubs! Havent lost ne yet! but will start really tryin aroun xmas!
Best be off my boy is awake!
P.S go Lownes! FORD'S RULE
-
shell- LOL Holly is a little riggler isnt she!!, i have found Nixon around the opp way a couple of times now too!
I have just uploaded some new pics on the website, of mothers group/eating & our first swimming lesson Today!!
not sure when we will TTC again prob anytime between Jan-Sept 07
-
No teeth coming through, but they are definitely itching to break through... he loves sticking anything and everything in his gob including my fingers and chomping down on em... I can certainly feel quite a few there
Jordy is only in his normal clothes for his day sleeps - that's when he gets the legs out Becky... No way could we still be wrapping him - he was good at getting out of em a long time ago. We have him in the equivalent of gro-bags during his night sleep. Tis like a sleeping bag with holes for the arms if you don't know what they are... they are a great idea and you can get em in different ratings for different times of the year due to temperatures etc
Is that 31 or 32 Shell - you have a 2yr difference between you and DH on your sig ! No idea what I want or want to do... probably just have Jen's family around for lunch etc on the day. From the long range forecast, looks like it'll be very hot next weekend. Am looking forward to the bbq here tomorrow. Got the theatre room hooked up to high definition digital tv for Bathurst in case any of the guys wanna watch that, and the spa is sparkly clean in case anyone wants a dip too. Oh better line up the music on my PDA for music outside and the spa area too (wont take long)
Oh and Jac, I guess Shell is referring to the Whirlpool net website... best plan reference around, though you need to be careful - some of the companies sound better than they actually are and not all the fineprint bits and pieces are listed too :(
Ta for the 6m needle reminder Becky too... better make sure Jen is aware of that. Well tis just after 9pm and I told her highness I'd be there by now (I oopsied in setting the theatre room up last night and didnt make it to bed til 12.30 :p)
Have a great Sunday everyone
oh yeah again... Jordy tried pureed sweet potato today - hmm, not certain about that one. We'll try it again tomorrow. So far he's had two varieties of Farex, I think the plain one and Pear&Banana. He is still getting used to the eating thing... I'm wondering if feeding right after a bottle is the right thing to do as he's already had his fill from the bottle and not necessarily wanting to "feed" - I dunno
-
Abs - The health nurse told me to feed after a bottle, i have been doing that, I think the same as you that he would already be full.
Charlie loves sweet potato - tonight he is having just pumpkin - that is his favourite
I think he must be having a growth spurt - he is sleeping sooo much today.
He gets his 6 month check up on Thursday.
-
Hi all - hmm what a day
Had friends over for bbq - with Jack being 19? months old, we haven't seen them since his 1st birthday in March other than Darren and Ali coming into the hospital when Jordy was born, and also Nicholas being 10 or 11 weeks old (and his parents Toby and Sef).
Amazing comparing all three boys at different ages and things
Day started out really nicely then got windy and cold, so we ate inside and noone interested in the spa
But yummy bbq - pork ribs cooked perfectly with the crackle part being spot on, and steak done medium rare, and sausages cooked through without being burnt - I love cooking on a bbq :p And heaps of bbq'd onion too... and salad and wine or beer or softdrink or water. Lots of good chatter and understanding when someone piped up with a bit of noise. Sef felt fine about popping out a boob to feed her boy - I dont think anyone noticed until he was happily feeding, even though she hadn't met the other couple before. Just a nice relaxed pleasant arvo
Jac, Jen is taking Jordy to paed tomorrow for something, he is still coughing though not as bad, and we have needles on Tuesday. Checkup last Thursday showed he is only marginally off the middle line for height weight etc, yet people still comment "oh isn't he a fatty etc" - grrr. Apparently one person even said "has a doctor spoken to you about getting him to loose weight" (or have I already commented on that). He chubby cheeks and his upper arms and legs are a bit chubby, but thats just baby chub. And I'm sure some of you have bubs like that too. He was about 8.5kg and 65cm - it still makes Jen quite angry
-
Abs- i have been giving Nixon the rice cerial between 30-60min after his feed started. so not directly after but whilst he is still awake/alert & happy.
i cant believe someone would make such a rude comment and tell u Jordy needs to loose weight... my god they obviously have no idea.
WTG Lowndsie! I am usually a holden fan but was happy to see him win with all the emotion he had today.
-
Hi everyone,
Jacci - I hope DH gets his job and you get to stay wherer you are!!! Tyron gets stuck all the time in the sid eof his cot, but I don't want to get a bumper, it is getting hotter here now and they still say no to use them, so I just get up 3 or 4 times a night and save him!! Wish he would learn to roll from his front to his back!!!
Abs - we have been asked the same thing and also people say, wow he is so big, you must over feed him! I just shake my head now!!
Nickers - the photo are so cute, i see Nixon does the same as Tyron and falls to one side!!
Well for us, we still have no teeth in site, he is such a pleasure now and is a happy little man, I hope the teeth don't ruin it!!
I am busy planning his Naming Ceremony which is in 2 weeks! Making the thank you chocolates at the moment!
Is anyone interested in doing a secret santa for christmas this time?? I will organise it if people are keen??
