Hi all

well saw the surgical gynae on wed and all is well, however despite BF it appears Af is back after 12month break (apart from MC and D&C). So not happy!

Russell is driving me insane this week . Dp has been away and its been really cold up here and Russell refuses to sleepin his bassinett between 12 and 8 am and wakes up to feed every 2 hours when in bed with me , then gets grizzly cos hes tired. my throat s so sore from singing him back to sleep last 3 nights. NOt sure if its cos of the cold or Dp being away that hes so grizzzly.

He also keeps falling asleep at the boob while still feeding and i dont know that he is getting enough. woke him up after 7pm feed and he wasnt interested, but was hungry again at 8:30. would love him to go back to 4hr sleep cycles. hes just all over the joint atm. how do i tell hes getting enough and encourage him to sleep longer at night?

morning all... this one handed typing is a little slow LOL :0

we weighed caleb this morning and he has put on 470g in a week.... this sounds HUGE does any one know on the net where i can get info on 'normal' weight gain for infants???

He eats a lot... bottle fed, eats 100ml karicare every 3 hours. Have tried to stretch him out, but the most i can get him to is 3.5 hours.

just checking in,

thinks not well her. DH and i have seperated for good. he has taken all his stuff and left. long story short i found records of msn chaats with girls who work through web cam shows and him talking smut and trying to use our credit card to view these shows, was final straw for me.

will be mia for a bit, trying to deal with all the changes

mj is doing well though

Oh you poor thing. This is not a happy ending. I can understand how streeful it is going to be for you as I separted from DD father when she was only 2 weeks old. God it was hard to deal with newborn and being alone.

I do hope you find your happy ending some day soon.

Howdy!!
Well DD wouldnt let me sleep in this morning (i dont know why!!) But she would fall asleep so i would go to bed, she would wake, so id go in to check on her and she is still asleep!! Cheeky monkey!
SO ive been updating her site and browsing the forums and what not..
~beatrix~ Oh no hun im so sorry to hear that!! Like we said the other night on chat though, they start somewhere..so it may be for the best

Zennie: You must be so tired ATM with DP away. I hope he comes home to give you a rest soon.


I went through that though when DH was falling asleep on lounge and not coming to be until early hr in morning, Wyatt used would wake up like every 2hrs. But on nights DH was in bed he would sleep
through until 12-1:30am. I think it was DH snoring lets Wyatt know someone else in room with him.

Cheers

Nessa - to you.... Sorry it's turned out this way.

Sharon - on the dildo cam! Nothin's been there since the birth and I really didn't want it being a 'probe'! ha ha ha...

Liam seems to be sleeping more but is still very hungry every 3 hours. Hopefully this will settle down. The ff doesn't seem to be making any difference to his sleeping or poo-ing habits. Little tyke is so very impatient when he's hungry!!

Got to go & bury SIL's dog... Will check in again later.

Nessa - I am so sorry hun.

Short post, just wanted to say that Baxter's renal scan yesterday was all clear so that is a relief.
