Wow a lot to catch up on here.
Shoegal yay to you on picking up on Baxters tired signs, it really does make a difference trying to settle a baby who is just ready to go off to sleep, rather than one that is way over tired. Glad to hear that Baxter started accepting the breast again.
Beatrix I did a really big clean on Friday, place was so tidy, but today it looks like a tornado has ripped through the place
alittlegrubi my DH seems to cope with constant crying better than me, but then again I suppose if he hasn't had to listen to it all day...
Fire I have noticed with Oliver that he seems to be wide awake at his 2am (ish) feed and that he is then much more stubborn to go back to sleep, usually takes me an hour from when he finishes his feed.
Nettie that's a shame about your DH not being able to cope with the night feeds, hope it all works out in the end though.
Tarnee hope that you aren't in for a long night. I have kind of 'forced' a routine onto Oliver out of necessity, because it takes so long to do the school drop off and pick up I really don't want to have a screaming baby all the way in the car.
Now I have to say that since changing Oliver to the thickened formula he is so much more content and happy. He is back to having around 100-110ml each feed, will sometimes get a little bit of pain but it is usually short lived, we will be going to the community nurse tomorrow afternoon to have a chat and get him weighed. We had our 1st official family outing today, we went to lunch (just to the shopping centre) and had a look around, DH bought me Underbelly Uncut woohoo, and then we went bowling, Oliver slept for nearly the entire time, he woke halfway through bowling, we left him in his pram and after about 15 mins he decided to go back to sleep, DH was amazed because it was so damn noisy in there, he said there's no way he would go back to sleep.
