Well, sooky sooky la la is very. I'm off work on carers' for the rest of the week - he has viral bronchitis. So cortisone once daily & ventalin 4 times a day. If that doesn't clear up by Saturday, then back to the docs for chest x-ray & worry about bacterial infection. *sighs*
*hugs* Jen *hugs* horrid estate agents. Hope B is OK, that's what Pip was like on Saturday night
Kris - wooohooo, fingers crossed for Saturday then!
Us - well I should go to sleep now cause goddess knows I'll be waking for the rest of the night.
Poor pip, I hope it gets better soon. Olivia had to have cort for 10 days and seemed to do the trick really quickly. Hope you got some sleep too.
Jen- you poor thing, I hope a new agent gets fast results. And beau must have a little sep anxiety too, hopefully that will pass quickly.
Kris- glad your dh is thinking of popping an offer on the house. it sounds huge. Our house is 11sqrs, a little bigger than your unit. When we finally decide to put on the second storey hopefully it will be heaps bigger with storage galore, so I can buy all the toys I want!!!
Olivia is home for the rest of the week with runny poo. She had 6 dirty nappies yesterday and the last one burnt her bum and vagina...it was so red...ooh i smell poo now...finish this off...nope just my nose!!! So am lathering her with zinc and caster oil. This morning she did a big wet fart and dirtied her nappy. Sometimes i wonder why I bother working at all. I have to decide what I am doing with work too. I only want to work til the start of October...2.5 months, but sometimes I cant be bothered. Just like the money....dont we all!!
Oh yeast free diet...mmmm, I think the yeast encourages oily skin and increases the wax production...I could be wrong, that man had so much to say yesterday and was all over the place. So teething rusks have yeast, so does bread, vegimite, mushrooms, vinigared stuff like pickles and olives.
Oh and yep I will find out what flavour baby I am having, but we want to keep it secret to family and friends. I have to be careful with what I post coz my sil used to come on this site, but doesnt anymore. I know she has another friend who lurks around. If she finds out, I know shes been reading my posts...like she used to. Anyway, better go, might go to Southland thismorning
Mel - there's some organic rice rusks around, no yeast. Pip loves them! Have you tried moogoo? it is the best thing for nappyrash.
Well Pip hates the mask thingy for the ventalin. And we found out this morning that my FiL passed last night, now I'm worried that he caught the bug off Pip. *sighs*
anyhows, time to give more bottle. Pip's not eating at the moment, but he'll have his cows milk, its like he's reverted. poor little chap.
Big hugs to you girls having it tough with sick bubs....mine's ok though very clingy. And she's been sooking like no tomorrow this morning. I though she might have a sore ear she's been itching it like crazy. Might need to go to the doc's. I think I have conjunctivitis too, so will ahve to treat that ASAP!!
O ther than this morning though, Lily's been good. Sleeping is MUCH better, only one wake up in the night, YAAAAY!!! And it's getting later and later, last night it was at 2.45am, so I got a good 4 1/2hrs sleep before having to get up to her. Then she slept til 6.15. Not the best time of morning but better than 5.30 like yesterday. The problem now is actually getting her to sleep. She is taking at least and hour to go down, so instead of 7pm bed times, it's 8. I tried to just keep her us til 8 a few nights, but that just made bedtime 9pm. Bit me on the butt that did, LOL!! I also tried cutting out her morning catnap, which has only been 30-40mins and just giving her a sleep at midday, but nope that didn't really work either. SHe only slept for an hour an was absolutely shattered by 6pm. I managed to keep her up til 6.30, but that's why she woke at 5.30 the other day...arrrgh!!!! I don't know what to do with her, LOL!! At least she's sleeping better at night that's all I'm really worried about...talking of sleep, she's been asleep for an hour now, which is unheard of in the morning for us.....maybe she is sick??
I have another scan today to check on the fluid levels. Hopefully all is well. I feel fine so I don't think anything is wrong. Baby is kicking up a storm in there and I have all the usual late pg symptoms, BAD baby brain, tired, sore back, sore ribs, no patience what so ever, yada yada!
Anyway that's it for now. I hope all your bubs are better soon and :hugs: again.
Mel - Yeah I think we'll get lost in a house that size coming from one so small! hehe. Although I'm sure we'll get used to it!!!! I just so hope it all happens..
Poor Olivia with her sore bum...hope it eases up soon...
You cheeky thing not telling us the sex of bubs!!! Gosh it will kill me! LOL!! I'm going to think it's a boy this time anyway...
Kaz - So sorry to hear about your FIL...thats so sad...I'm taking it he was very sick anyway so I don't think you should worry about it being Pips fault..
I can only imagine how hard it is to use the ventalin thing...good luck!
Kel - Thats great Lily's sleeping better at night! I'm sure the rest of her sleeps will sort themselves out eventually!
Good luck with your scan - not long to go now!!
Kaz, I'm so sorry about your FIL
I hope poor Pip is feeling better soon. Hope he takes to the ventalin better.
Jen, bugger about the estate agent. Let's hope this one does a better job for you guys. I don't know how I'd cope if I had to have our house ready for inspection every week. We'd have to move out!
Is Beau doing better? Ben has been sleepy all week too, and when he's sleepy he gets a bit sooky. 14/15 months seems like an odd time for a growth spurt though!
Kris, do your in-laws really tell you to re-wrap presents?!?!
Shopping is getting more and more expensive. I sometimes wonder how I'm going to manage feeding Ben when he is bigger - he's such a pig - imagine when he's a teenager!
Mel, that's good news that Liv isn't lactose intolerant. Hopefully the yeast won't be too hard to cut out of her diet. Ouch on her poor little bottom! I hope it's cleared up quickly.
I can SO relate to you on the 'can't be bothered' with work! I'm working until the end of November, so 4.5 months left and I'm already struggling. Luckily I still have four weeks plus of sick leave so I can take plenty of them if it's getting too much for me. Oh, and we've been asked to take annual leave for next week because of World Youth Day taking over the campus, so hopefully that will leave me refreshed.
The morning sickness is almost gone. I'm 12 weeks today - yay! My appointment is at 11:30 on Monday - I can't wait to see my little bub.
Kel, that's great the Lil is sleeping better. I'm having trouble with Ben and his day sleeps too, well not really trouble, but he seems to be between needing one and two sleeps a day. This week though he's just been really tired. Maybe it's the weather? Who knows?
Us: I feel really good today. Magical 12 week mark maybe? I don't know. I only got into work a couple of hours ago, so that might have something to do with it too!
It's so bloody freezing at the moment here though, I am more than over Winter! Bring on Summer already!!
Ben has started pointing to his body parts on command which is just adorable! Except when you say 'nose' he sticks his finger up his nose! And for 'eyes' he batters his eyelids So funny! He's also started to 'help' my sister with her new baby - getting blankets when they're talking about her being cold, even without being asked. He also pats her and when she's crying he'll open the bedroom door and stand in the doorway yelling until mum or my sister come and get her I think he's going to be a good big brother.
Hello all.....
Beau still the same but i let him go for his nap with a bottle and he cried but fell asleep jammed up with his head on a forty five and the bottle in his mouth....for three hours! What is going on already? Seems like our bub' sleep routines are all out huh?
Dis - You always seem to post something about Ben that Beau has just started to do too - its so weird! He is pointing at belly and ears and does a cute chomping for his teeth - he doesnt know where his eyes or nose are yet tho! Wow at getting the blankets! What a cutie! Beau doesnt eat as much as Ben seems to tho - he is a bit of a fusspot I think.
Kaz - Hugs to you and Pip - you are going thru a **** time arent you? Hope his on the mend with his medication now and he is getting some rest and you too.
Kris - LOL at your IL's - they come out with some good ones huh? Thats pretty good about the professionals hey? We signed with McGraths but so fingers doubly crossed - I have changing things up today for the photos so our place looks different. The agent came to drop off the keys with his tail between his legs yesterday arvo - I had just got out of the bath with Beau so it was one heck of an uncomfortable conversation!
Kel - Good to hear from you! Sorry that Lil is a bit out of sorts too - good luck with your check up - hugs to you in the last stages hon. Hope its not conjunctivitis too.
Mel - You dirty stop out! Maybe you can PM us the sex? You cannot hold it in! Your sneaky SIL bah! to her! Poor Olivia and her bum - Beaus was bleeding in one spot last night and he had a million blown up sultanas in his poo (yuck!) he had a bit of ham in the day so i think it did him in again. Oh if we didnt like money so much huh? Every time I work I think "last time" and then there is something we need....like food! He he!
Thanks to everyone for my real estate sympathy!
Making fried rice for tea so better go and cook some rice up for it now....
Woah missed your post Kris - Far out you need real estate sympathy now too! Something better will turn up or can you counter offer?
Kaz - no idea hon, can you call your GP that prescribed it for him?
Thanks Jen...we've sat down tonight with a list of 5 places to look at on Saturday...a few look pretty good although most are another 5-10min further out...so not what I want to do but oh well...We're just too fussy!
Hope Beau settles for you...
Well, we might be having real estate dramas but I'm grateful that Dylans cruising along at the moment!!! Sleeping well, eating well and just generally his cheeky self! One thing to be grateful for thats for sure - LOL!!!!
