Hi Ladies. Been MIA for a few days but had a fairly busy weekend with REALLY bad sleep! Little girl has been waking up pretty much every two hours for the last few nights and I must say I have forgotten allready how tired that makes you. I think she must be going through a physical growth spurt, hopefully won't last too long! I am rejoicing at the moment because Hazel is asleep in her swing and is on to her second sleep cycle after a tiny grizzle. Yay. Hope this happens every day, I've made dinner and DH's lunch for tommorrow and now actually have half an hour (or more hopefully) to myself!
Jen- that's amazing news!!!! I bet you never imagined it would happen pre-Beau but these little people sure change your life. I am so so pleased for you and can't wait to 'chat' more often!
Kel- that is also great news about you definately being able to stay home! And cool that you can join the gym- I am so glad I did it not just to get a bit fitter but to get me out of the house and give my day some structure. Lucky you getting spoiled by your DH!! Lily's sleeps sound fabulous and you seem like a very happy girl at the mo!
Deb- I'm so glad you had a great holiday- I will check out your blogs when I get a chance- I love hearing about people's adventures. Re. the solids opinions. I think as in most things all babies are different and it's best to follow their lead and they will tell us when they're ready. A friend of mine in the UK has just started introducing solids to her 5 and a half month old because her DD was absolutley desperate to get her hands on food and had decided she didn't want booby any more (which kind of broke my friend's heart). I would see what you HCN says and play it by ear from there!
Erin- so glad you made it home safe and sound but boo to being sick and boo to bad weather! I hope you had a good time anyway and it sounds like Charlie was a wonder. Hope you got a lovely nigh's sleep last night
Kris- Sounds like you've been busy! Hope Dylan's sleep settles down, they just keep you guessing don't they! Will you take Dylan to proper swimming lessons or just with you?
Ok- that's Hazel shouting out for me- doing her 'I am awake come and get me' shout- so cute. So I'd better go and fetch her. Lots of love all x
We had another rubbish night! She woke up at 12 then 2.30 for feeds, then again at 3.40 but I decided to let her have a whinge (just little half asleep grizzle- I wouldn't leave her if she was REALLY crying) and she went back off to sleep pretty quickly. She did the same at some point- didn't look at the time- and went back off to sleep again. Then woke up 'properly' at 5, had a feed then back to sleep til 8.30. So basically I think she must be entering a new phase in her development and is surfacing a bit more between sleep cycles. I think I will leave her to grizzle a bit more, especially at the earlier times because I know she can go through to nearly 4 without a feed. Fingers crossed. The only other thing it could be is the little rash she has on her girly bits. It's been there afew days and maybe it gets a bit sore through the night?! I think I'm going to book her in to the docs to check it out anyway because it's not going away and I read somewhere that you should see a doc if it lasts more than a few days, which it has.
