my MCHn cancelled our appt today and rescheduled for tom. I cant wait to weigh my little pork chop too!
i think we are almost in 00 bonds suits! but still 000 clothes are just fitting. still very loose. i think he is thin? We dont have any rolls here :(
been very unsettled today. we both had a cry this arvo. but thank god he was in bed early at 8...lets see how long he lasts!
omg!!! mason just slept 12 hours from 8to8 with no interruption...i cant believe it
:dance:
I'm jealous!!
OMG Danni, that's great news! Yep I'm very jeleous too!! If you think you've done something different that's helped please tell.
We are going backwards, I thought they were supposed to settle down around the 12week mark. DH went back to work, night shift & Charlie forgot how to sleep - up every 2hrs & back to 2feeds at night. He's still very constipated & nothing seems to be working, think I make take the next step & change his formula.
Hi to everyone, hope all bubs are doing well.

Morning!
Danni- I'm very jealous too. We had been going great guns with pretty much only one wake up and feed between 7pm and 5.30am but last night went back to two.....hopefully will go back to the other way tonight, soon.....good luck at the hc
Erin- sorry to hear things are going backwards- is it a wonder week? I will have a look on the chart melissa emailed us. Fingers crossed it's a short phase! Saw your pics and Charlie is adorable!!
Kellie- LOL at fat rolls being cute! It's true though, I was looking at Hazel's double chin this morning thinking the same thing- only bubs can carry it off and still look gorgeous!
What are your pics under in the gallery?
I am going to the gym now, it's bubacise class, to try and sort out my rolls and flabby bits......think it will take some time. Am trying to eat well but I know I can't really *diet* as such incase my milk dries up....but I guess I could cut out the biccies and cakes...well maybe just two biccies with an afternoon coffee would be ok?!? XX
Hi!
Kellie - Glad you had a good day - hope you enjoyed your bath!! LOL on the fat rolls!
Danni - Wow thats amazing - I bet you feel fantastic!!! He's obviously getting all the milk he needs then!! Hope he keeps it up for you!
Erin - Big hugs!! You poor thing...OOh I hope you can fix the constipation poor little monkey..I wonder if thats why he's waking???
Christy - Have fun at the gym! After the ladies on chat last night talked about choccy I was so craving some...but we didn't have any...anyway when I woke up this morning dh had a bounty bar on the bench with a note saying "I love you" (he'd been out last night and got home after I went to bed) Awwwww - Needless to say it's gone down very well for morning tea - LOL!!! I'm so bad at the moment!!! hehehe.
Dylan slept well last night and he's having his naps in his cot today no problems!! Woohoo!
Christy thanks, do you think you could send me that chart? (hedutschke@bigopond.com)
That would be great if possible, i've heard about it would love to take a look.
Kristie, yeah I think that could be the cause of him waking too. Think I might just bite the bullet & change his formula.
well got to go, about ready to go out & Charlie just spewed all over me.:(
I'm having trouble letting go of biscuits & cake, I eat like I am still pregnant LOL....it doesn't help that my mums group meets more than once a week!! we are always having coffee, I'm heading off now to meet up with them & we just met yesterday. Oh well, I love it.
Geat to hear Dylan is having naps no problems.
Hi!
Erin - Don't you just love that! LOL...always when you're about to walk out the door as wel!...
Caro - How are you and Michael going?? How long is he awake between naps now?? Hope you're well!
Forgot to add - Dylan half rolled over this mornign - from tummy to back!! Woohoo...I helped him a little but he basically did it on his own - LOL!
Hi.
Had a lovely time at the gym and Hazel was so good- really just lay there checking out the toddlers and only had a grizzle at the end! I weighed her and she is 4.9kg. She did a massive poo and wee on the change table just befor I weighed her so I bet if I'd gottten her on the scales BEFORE she would have been over 5kg LOL!!
Kris- what a lovely thing for your DH to do! Little things like that make up for when they behave like *men* !
Erin- no probs will email that to you in a mo. I can't wait til my mother's group starts but it's not til mid August :( Hopefully they will be as nice as yours must be!
Caro- hope all is well and that getting your move organised is more exciting than stressful.
caro: no prob with msn... or you can email me
mason is 59cm long, and 5.7kg! he is now average :)
wow, Charlie must be a big boofa - had him weighed two weeks ago & he was 5.9Kg!! he's my little fatty:) We are well into the 00 clothes.
Christy, thanks for that chart - yep he's having a stormy week, why oh why on night shift week!!!!!!! ahhhhh!!!! getting out to Mum's group is a great release as they all want to cuddle him - Charliei s the youngest as i've joined a group with a lot of older kids due to knowing someone in the group when I moved up here. It's great as we are so so far from anything else we get together very regularly during the week, I'm out Tues, Thurs & Fri LOL......not to mention the extra days when we decide to just catch up. I love it they are all really friendly & it helps when you don't have family support.
Yay to Dylan for rolling....can't wait til Charlie starts doing stuff like that. He's just started laughing rather than little giggles - that's kind of cool.
When I get a few minutes I'll check out the pics of all your bubs. Hope you all have a better day/night than mine:) Danni I hope mason has a reapeat performance for you tonight.

Hi!
Christy - Glad you had fun at the gym! Yeah on the weight gain!
Danni - Yeah at Masons growth as well!
Erin - We're hitting a stormy patch as wel...he's definitely wanting more attention at the moment and won't let me leave him for 5min! LOL! The giggles are great! I nearly got one yesterday but he still just likes smiling...
Caro - Bugger about the headaches! Yeah on Michael growing big!! hehe.
Ooh I can't wait to get Dylan weighed and measured tomorrow!!!
wahhhhh :crying: 2nd day in a row of a screaming MONSTER mason. He is just exhausted though. He slept for 4 hours this arvo...and is in bed again now. He actually put himself to sleep in his basinette for the first time ever clever boy!
hope he sleeps well again tonight as we have a big day tomorrow.
I am worried about not feeding him overnight as i am scared my milk supply with dwindle. oh im so sick of worrying about my damn milk!!
caro: thanks anyway about the costume..i think we found one on ebay. re: the other thing...im pretty sure its when he is exhausted rather than anything else. ill be in touch
Hi!
Big hugs Danni - It's just a growth spurt for them I'm sure! Doesn't make it much easier for us though...Wow at 4h sleep today - I wouldn't know what to do with myself!! 40min is his limit most of the time...grrr.
Sweet dreams everyone!
Goodmornign ladies,
We have been busy for the past few days, doing shopping helping my mum with her reno's, cleaning and visiting friends. It's been good to be out of the house.
DH did our tax the other night and we should get back a fair bit, I'm very excited it might mean that I can stay home for the year...wooohoooo!!
We went on a date last night, just to dinner and the movies. It was very strange to leave Lily for so long! She stayed at mums so it's not like she was somewhere different, but still....I missed her so much, and was happy to hear she was good for her nanny! But she still wouldn't sleep there, hehehe...
I think Lil's probably up to 6kg's now, she was 4.8 and that was 4 weeks ago, and she's definately getting bigger, she's a little chubby bubby! I'll have to get her weighed.
Erin, I hear you about the night shifts. Lily does it too. She always plays up whenever DH is at work or (especially) on night shifts. Never when he's home, little monkey! LOL.
Christy, my photos are under 'kellieem'. I had a look at your photos, Hazel is so lovely, I love the black and white photo (the one in your ticker).
Good on you for going to the gym. I might be able to get another membership now too, when we get our tax. I will have to stop eating cr@p too, I have one good day then three bad ones!
Kristie, That's great the Dylan had good sleeps in his cot. I have been thinking of putting Lily in her cot too, but I just can't do it yet. She's still so little!! I'm too attached, hehehehe.
Yay that Dylan rolled. Lily is too lazy to roll, I've been trying to get her to do it but she just laughs at me...she's a cheeky thing.
Caro, thanks, I think Lily's pretty cute too, hehehe. Sorry to hear you've been having headaches. I used to get migranes once or twice a month, but since being pg I haven't had any at all (knock on wood!!). Hope you feel better soon.
Danni, I'm sick of worrying about my milk too. Though I woke up this morning with huge wet patches of milk on my jammies. I thought that it would be safe not to sleep in a bra since I'm usually dry, but not last night. I nearly drowned Lily when I fed her....that's the first time for ages! :).
Ok thats it for me.
Have a lovely day girlies.
Kellie.
Hi!
Just got back from Dylans mchn checkup!
He weights 5.95kg and is 60.5cm long!!! He's just getting so big!!
Kel - Yeah for going on a date!! thats fantastic!! Michael and I really need to do that soon...Dylan has his last feed aroun 6-8pm so we could easily do it now...
Thats great news on your tax as well! I hope we get some money back...we should get a little bit...hopefully enough to renovate out bathroom and paint the house - LOL!
Chat later!
Good afternoon!
Kris- yay on Dylan's weight gain!
Danni- hope Mason is settling down- I would KILL for a four hour day sleep though!
Kellie- Lily is absolutley beautiful! Yay about your tax- fingers crossed it means you can put off going back to work, it must be soooo hard for the Mums that have to leave theor bubba's when they're really tiny but I guess some people don't have much choice. I feel so, so lucky that I can stay home with my girl and have a profession that will allow me to take her with me. I've really noticed how much more expensive it is to live in Australia compared to what it was like 7 years ago when I left.
Caro- I hope your headaches sort themselves out. I had some killer ones during my early pregnancy and it must be hard to deal with them when you've got two little ones to look after :hugs:
Erin- no problems! Had another look at it myself and I've got a week's grace til the 12 week storm! I've got the book on order at the library and it will be interesting to read more about it.
Well, we had a bit of a shocker of a night last night. Up at 11.45 then 2.15 and then she just wouldn't resettle in her cot. Would go down sound asleep but then be awake and calling out five minutes later. I don't think it was wind. Anyway after three tries I just gave up and brought her in to bed and had lovely sleep with snuggly lying down booby til 8.45. Mmmmm........ where have my 7 hour sleeps gone? Guess it's a new phase or maybe she's started her 12 week stormy patch a week early?
Went to the gym again this morning- really had to FORCE myself though - and did a boxing/trampoline class. OMG am I unfit! Hopefully it will get easier though and I did feel great afterwards, knackered though. Think I will go and curl up with Hazel when she stirs which will be soon I think as she still won't stay down for more than 40 minutes through the day.
Hope everyone is having a great day x x
Hi!
Christy - Yeah at getting to the gym! I've been really slack lately...must get myself going for next weel! LOL - can't get started on a Friday! hehehe.
Bugger you had a tough night - it really is the best thing to just bring them into bed - at least you both get some sleep that way!!
