Well we had a good night finally!! Lily went down at 9.30 (not ideal, but hey....) then woke at 3.00, then at 7.20. Wooohoooo I fell asleep at 7.00 on the lounge for a while I was so tired. DH put Lily to sleep and let me have a hot bath with my first glass of wine for ages!! Yum, it was lovely.
A question for you all...Lily has a rash under her arm and no matter what I do it won't go away. It's really red and looks sore. Some days it looks raw. She doesn't complain about it though. I always make sure I dry really well under there and have tried putting powder and cream (at different times) and just leaving it to fix itself, but it won't go...what should I do?
DH is bathing her and dressing her now and I can hear him singing chilli peppers to her, LOL, so cute. She's got him wrapped around her finger already, hehehe. Not that I can talk... It's so nice to have a break from being solely responsible for her for a few days.
Caro, sorry to hear that you're feeling so yuck. It must be the stress of moving and everything. I get sick when stressed, and I lose my voice too! Hope you feel better soon.
Have fun at the fairies!
Kris, I hear you on needing a break. I did too DH's day off couldn't have come at a better time.
No I don't wrap Lily anymore. SHe was getting too agitated when I did it and always got her hands free anyway. She's quite content not being wrapped anymore. I do pull her blankets tight and tuck them in which she seems to like. She also strokes my chest while she's falling asleep. I slowly let her have one hand free for a few days then the other, then loosened her legs...
Erin, sounds like you are making a nice little family away from home for yourself. Thats great that there is such support for you.
Lily usually gets really hot too, but it's been so cold here (-3 and -2 degrees the past few nights!) lately that she's been waking up with little icecubes for hands! I put socks on them, but sometimes she's still a bit cold.
Hope you got your ebay toys for Charlie!!
