pixie good luck tonight i am sending you calm baby sleeping vibes!!!!!

Josh still wakes at around 2 and gets in bed with us for cuddles to feed at 4 or 5am, altho sometime times just sometimes hubbie has been able to egt him to sleep in cot for longer.

Lucky me the always sore lady i think i should be on a disabilie payment with all my crap now its the tendon/ligament at back of right ankle who would have guessed and yesterday i had a half a day with my right knee locking up. Cant wait to get to top of waiting list soon. altho with this pregnancy being over meaning josh, My knee is so not causing me as many problems. so

oh and also i had um sorta a no go period yes warning tmi comming up.... slightly brown mucus followed by 1 drip of blood and thats it all over as quick as it started. that would make it about the 3rd time its happened now at around the 28 day time.
hubbie wants to watch 7 signs of Christs return me too so catch ay later xoxox

Hi!!! Sorry I have been MIA!!
2 Days ago I had writtena huge list of jobs I had to do and showed DH and he said "oh you have to add another thing to that list... pack you bags.... we are going to the farm.." me.... "yay yay yay" It had beena ges since we had gone to the farm, he had organised it a few weeks ago with my parents. It was fab to get out of the city we spent new years night at a local beach town which puts on a really good fireworks show and this years was awesome - my parents and friends of our all said it was the best in years
We got back late this arvo and I have been trying to finshi my job list that I never got to do, so I...

Fixed our irrigation system (had a break so i had to do a repair)
Done two laods of washing
Filled all our big waterbottles with rainwater
Took out the rubbish and the recycling
Watered the garden
Unpacked all of our stuff from the trip away
And more other bits and pieces! Now to spend some quality time with DH

[beckoes]

Sounds like everyone had a great christmas/ny....hope the lady that got burnt was ok...pixie! That pig sounded great though!!
Glad to hear we arnt the only ones with a crazy crying unsettled baby! Just as we got over the terrible day sleeps a few days ago and now the night sleeps have just gone to pot!!
Thursday and Friday night....Bed at 6pm, up 10.30 till 11.30 and again 2.30 till 4.30, up at 6am for the day
Last night...bed at 6pm, up 10.30 till 11.30. Up again 1.30 till 2.30 then again at 4am, tried to bring her in to our bed then for a feed and more sleep but she wasnt interested...wanted to play!! She has just gone back down now!
I wondered if it might be teething, or maybe she is hungry....does seem to be feeding alot more atm. But hearing everyone else say how they are having similar problems i guess its the age or just one of those things.

Hope everyone manages to have better days/nights today....luckily DH id off today so he can have her while i catch up on some sleep later!

Ok, time for breakfast and laundry!!

Bec - I was wondering about teething too, but he isn't excessively drooling or have red cheeks or toxic wees so if he is they are only annoying at the moment rather than cutting! I also thought maybe he is ready for the next level of feed and is trying to increase my supply. He woke up at 4am this morning and point blank refused the dummy. I can usually get it in at least once!! Then he fed from me both sides and we mostly feed from one side only, especially in the morning when my supply is at it's greatest. He then woke at 8 and did the same thing and complained when it was all gone. He also had a late feed last night at 11.30 which is out of routine too.

So we have gone from last feed somewhere between 9 and 10 and next feed between 7 and 8, to 11.30, 4 an then 8, all both sides!!!

same with us...feeding hezaps more than normal...maybe when my supply catches up with her hunger she might settle down abit. for the first time today she had her feed and still wanted more....was sucking and sucking and i knew there was nothing left!! was wingy and looked at me as if to say ''seconds please''!!!

Sasha: Do you see a health nurse or doc for K...did they suggest you start solids? ive not been to see a nurse. wondering if she might be ready to start trying solids but dont know if i should talk to someone about it first!?

[nagromeyk]

now the night sleeps have just gone to pot!!

Same here too! K has been a bit unsettled at night too lately. Most nights he is in bed around 730 but yeah the past three nights I have had to resettle him at 8:30pm and 9:20pm - no word of a lie the EXACT same time for the past 4 nights He resettles quickly though, all I need to do is pick him up and hold him for about 5 minutes and he goes back to sleep, but yeah soooo strange why he is continuing to do it each night Kye is 20 weeks today have been hoping it's a 'week' thing. Guess tonight I will find out hehe

Oh he tried PEAR last night for dinner and again this morning for breakfast - absolutely loves it!!

Anyways housework to do while he is sleeping!
