Me and Beau -
He laughed for the first time on Friday - all those weeks of kissing bellies and necks finally pays off! We have just got back from the shops where he stayed awake in his pram for 11/2 hours without making a peep! He is So curious now...I am still expressing every feed and bottling him - I am working one day a week (so far) and am paying a friend to mind him. This week it will be Friday I think and DH is playing golf EARLY Saturday - so that will make for a tired Saturday for me...wonder if I can convince DH to get up and do the 5-6am feed?
Erin - I tried using the thicker formula for Beau's comp feeds and ordered Y teats online - but he cried the house down - I think the flow was too fast for him. I think now that is the same prob with him on my boobs - its too fast after the bottle for so long. If you tell me which ones (teats) you want I will happily buy them from woolies (I am there everyday almost) for you here and post them to you if it helps you out.
Kel - sorry to hear Lily has been so unsettled - but you got a giggle! good with the bad huh? I am trying to get Beau to roll every tummy time too...
Sammy - Fiji? Awesome! We went there on our honeymoon - Lomalagi resort. It was amazing...you are very brave - but im sure everything will be beautiful! Its super humid so not a lot of clothes required and you need a good bug spray for night time. If I think of anything else Ill let you know...
Kris - Sorry to hear Louis has been sick - god who hosted the BBQ? They must feel awful! we went out to Chinatown on Saturday for lunch and if anyone coughed I crossed the street with him basically!
Christy - I am really interested in how you are trying to wean Hazel from wrapping - Beau cries everytime he gets wrapped now - he seems to hate being constricted! Keep updating ok? I am going to try too once it warms up.
Mel - Congratulations on the harness part time removal on Olivia- enjoy every kick in the belly she gives you!
Adele - Logan sounds like our cheeky one - he smiles even when he is getting upset sometimes...you do sound like you have it all together - I know what you mean about high expectations of yourself - I try and be super woman too - but I feel much better about everything now I have quit work - I try and focus on Beau and I, it did take a little longer for us to bond too so I understand what you are saying - I think its pretty common.
Kaz - Sorry Patrick is unsettled - cuddles to you.
Danni - Hope your headaches arent too dibilitating (sp?) there is nothing harder than trying to look after bubba with a bad one...take care of yourself.
Anyone else I have missed? It has taken me a few days to scroll through all the posts I have missed - but I am fully caught up now!
ps I started this post at 12:30!
