Tarnee sounds like Charlotte is doing really well, Oliver is starting to get rolls on his little chicken legs, they look so cute.
Shoegal bighope Baxter does well with his tests.
Fire I know that when I get a fairly good nights rest without Oliver fussing too much I feel like I can handle anything the following day, hope bubs does well again tonight.
Beatrix i'm not looking forward to Oliver getting his needles, it always makes me sad, but I know it is better for him in the long run. Sorry to hear that you and DH aren't getting along atm, a new baby in the house can test the strongest of relationships, hope you manage to get things sorted out.
BabyWrangler I gave up on forcing Oliver's routine on him today and he has seemed much more settled, even after his bath tonight, he had his bottle, seemed to fight sleep for a bit, but think that was because he got a little overtired, he was asleep by 5.30pm and is still sleeping now, will be going in to do a 'sneaky feed' at 10.30 if he hasn't woken by then. That is great that BJ is going so good now that he seems to be on the right medication for his reflux.
bellelass I started comp feeding with my 6 year old when he was 4 days old as my milk hadn't come in (didn't come in till day 8) and found it a struggle to get him feeding properly from the breast as it was obvious he preferred the bottle because it was easier, which is why I gave up, hope you manage to get bubs back to exclusively BF if that's what you want.
alittlegrubi hope you managed to figure out what Greer wanted in the end, and I am sure that you coped fine tonight on your own.
As for the cloth nappies, I planned to use disposable nappies Oliver right from the start, I did the whole cloth nappy thing with my 2 eldest and to be honest I just couldn't be bothered with it this time.
Oliver's routine today was pretty good for me actually, and he was the one who set the pace, he had his night feed at 4am, I then did have to wake him at 7.30 for his feed or he would have screamed in the car on the way to school as we have to leave at 8am, got him home, and he stayed awake for about 40 mins, I put him to bed still awake and he then slept till 12.30, where as before I would have woken him up at 10.30 so that then I could get him up at 2 for the before school pick up feed, but this way, he wasn't going to be needing another feed until 4ish, well when we got home, he slept until 4 but wasn't grizzly for a feed, so I bathed him at 4.30, he had his bottle at 5 and was in bed asleep by 5.30, at his 5pm feed he actually had 140ml of his bottle which amazed me, so he seems to be going 5 hours or so between feeds which is fine with me![]()




hope Baxter does well with his tests.
