Just got back from our weigh in....6.82 kgs! Thats a gain of 270g in 12 days. pretty good!
MM: they are but i think Telstra take the cake!!
Bec - yay for the weight gain! K easily puts that amount on in a week :rofl::
I'm estimating that come the 27th of Jan when I can have him weighed again (nurse on holidays till then) he will be close to the 10kg mark! :o
Wow Beck no wonder she has been running you ragged! Great weight gain!
Sash I think you're right about Kye hitting the 10k mark!
MM poo to your nasty neighbour == at least you're moving away soon!
Vic hope you had a good time at MG - just got back from mine....
running around like a headless chook today... have a great weekend everyone :hello:
Hi All :)
Hope you have had a good week and are loking forward to a fabulous weekend!!
We have my SIL's wedding tomorrow, so got a busy day ahead! Oh and I was very excited that I am wearing a dress I bought last year and wore when I was about 6 weeks preggers and, it fits and my boobs aren't bursting out the front :rofl: :dance:
I am also planning a surprise for DH on Sunday, just hoping that it isn't going to be too hot!! Want to take him up to do one of a favourite waterfall walks, and maybe finish off with a glass of wine ;)
How was your mothers group Pixie?
All bar one mum and bub made it to ours, and OMG the changes in the bubs is just amazing!! And everyone came with solids, it was such a different day!! Fabulous!!
Mel... three words for you hun... You're a Tease!!!!!! :rofl:
What a great gain Beckoes!! gace seems to be doing all the right things :)
Looking forward to Kye's next weighin.. 10kg :o
My thoughts on Telstra..... should be really called Toolstra!!
Oh I am super excited!! Two friends called this week to say they are UTD, both due in July!!!
Grr MM, I'll tell her WTG!!! PMSL about the Pooey nappies, they NEVER happen when you want, Nakita does them, just before going out, just bfore bed and right after a bath :wall: but I have to say that now she is on solids, the poo's are more often but sooooo much better to clean off the cloth than the plain BF poos!!!
MT yay for Jett sleeping longer - that is awesome!! Was nappy washing day here too!!
Well better be off get the washing off the line, and make a cuppa before N's late feed!
I probably won't post for the next day or two, but might get to read....
BBBBBBYYYYYEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!! Sleep bubbas Sleep!!! xxoo
Just a quick one here.... going waterskiing today...yay!!
MM - Poo to that stoopid neighbour! We have alot of those people around here. Our council even tried to bring in a 24 hour cat curfew, but thankfully there are too many people with cats who kicked up a stink over that one. Everyone is happy with the dusk til dawn curfew, but fairs fair, they need to go outside too! Mine certainly does, the house would be destroyed if she didn't, and god knows where she would pee cos she refuses to use kitty litter! Grrrr!
I was walking around the shops just holding Jett yesterday and for the first time ever my arms got tired holding him. He has really packed the weight on in the last few days. I can't wait for weigh in now!!
And he slept through til 5 this morning, had a quick feed and went straight back to sleep until 7.30!! :dance:
OK, off now! Enjoy your Saturdays!!
Sasha: 10kgs!! wow! bet hes hard to carry around!! DH says ive got great back and arm muscles from carrying DD!
Beema: waterfall walk sounds great!!have fun! I have three friends pregnant! one due in a few months and two in july!! lol about badly timed poos!! G seems to always...every day...do one at 4.45am, just after first feed!! could set a clock by it! lol
MT:Good sleeping!!
G slept better again last night! but awake at 4am again, i took her into bed with me again and she fed, i went to sleep again and was woken at 4.45 by her trying to pull my lips/eye lids off, fingers up the nose etc! nice:lol:
We had a better night last night too. K didnt wake up at all. Put him to bed at 8pm and he slept through until his normal waking time, 5:15am :hooray:
It was alot cooler here last night so that may have something to do with it :dunno: Hopefully he is settling down again with his sleep patterns :crossfingers:
He had the Rafferty's Pumpkin, Sweet Corn and Apple last night. He likes it so thats another one to add to the list. I also brought the spinach, broccoli, Apple and Pea one too but havent tried it yet; will give it a go tomorrow I think once I have finished the ones that are open so yeah he likes the Banana, Mango and Pear one and the Pumpkin, SC and apple one :dance:
Gotta fly... bbl for personals maybe!
Hi guys, just a quick one.
aricyn's birthday today, so we are in and out. Already trekked to brisbane and got stuck in traffic on the way back to the coast, done the grocery shopping, and now about to go to the IL's.
Hope everyone is having a nice weekend!
:bluecheer: HAPPY BIRTHDAY ARICYN!!!!! :happybirthday:
Sash - yay for all the foods Kye is enjoying!! I gave Veygas an organic rusk stick yesterday and he devoured half of it!!
MT - one of our cats (we have 5 :o) also refuses to use cat litter, and he usually wakes us up meowing between 3am and 5am so we give in and let him out (otherwise he pees wherever he likes and usually on our bed to p*ss us off - oh the irony!) :lol: But he just lays in the garden all day anyway, doesn't chase or catch anything! A couple of the others though, have been bringing wild rabbits to the door .... but they are a pest anyway, right?
Bec, Sash, MT - woohoo for your sleeping bubs!! :clap:
We had a shocker last night, Veygas was awake ever hour from 6pm to midnight! :doh: Finally got him settled and off to bed, then he slept til 7.30am! Wondering if it had anything to do with that rusk stick though :dunno:
Vic - hope your waterfall walk goes as planned - sounds beautiful!
Mel - Happy Birthday to A for yesterday, hope he had a fun day!!
Well K only woke up once last night and that was at 20 past midnite but he didnt have as much to drink yesterday (780ml for the day) so I'm guessing that was the reason. Gave him a bottle and he went straight back to sleep. Slept until 4:50am which was a little too early for me so brought him into bed and he slept for another hour hehe
Just a quick one from me for now, gotta get some stuff done while K is asleep!
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend! :hello:
:happybirthday: Aricyn!!
MM - My cat is a hunter, but the biggest she has come home with is a pigeon, also a pest, and that was when she was a very active 1 year old. She used to stalk our chickens when she was a kitten but they put her in her place fairly early on so she just caught the mice in the pen instead!! Now we rarely get anything, maybe a mouse, frog or skink but as you can see she isn't quite as ambitious these days!! And yeah, I don't think wild rabbits are a problem!! And I have to admit I let her out at night sometimes too, only because she comes in and shreds paper in my house, anything she can get her teeth in to - bills, cards, money...:rolleyes:
We had another good night last night, only one wake up, but we're still not back to perfect yet!! :crossfingers: it happens soon.
I had a thought this morning about his sleeping and unsettledness. I was still wrapping him until last week and then after the worst night I started putting him in his sleeping bag instead. Since then we have only been getting the one wake up through the night. Is anyone else still wrapping?
Hi everyone,
happy birthday aricyn!!!
i sorta feel like im the intruder in this group getting so hard to keep up.
yesterday josh spent 6 hours in the baby pouch and was great i did stop to buy some suncream tho as i thought he could be getting burnt. One lady said "what a chubby little boy" wow thats a first for me with him.
well things are happening but nothing that fab i guess. passport saga's and other stuff josh developing but ahhh yeah thats it bye
keep well everyone.
Squidipa!!! You are definitely not an intruder in this group! We miss you but understand you're busy so just pop in when you can! :hug: yay for the chubby comment!:
i sorta feel like im the intruder in this group getting so hard to keep up
MT I still wrap at night, but my wraps are starting to get a bit small for madam!
Sash fingers crossed K is back to perfect soon
MM hope the packing is going well... not long now
Mel hope the big A had a great day yesterday!
:hello: to everyone else!
We are having settling issues.... but I think I just need a new routine.... will have to ponder that one!
Pixie- That is interesting. Because we have both been experiencing the unsettledness, I wonder if they are just trying to tell us that they are over being wrapped? I actually did a few nights of wrapping but from his armpits instead of over the shoulders so that both arms were free. This gave him the comfort of the firm wrapping on his belly but his arms were free. He thought it was wonderful that first night, kept plying with Daddy's face and arm and then turning and playing with Mummy's face and then playing with his hands and fingers until he fell asleep. Since then he treats it as normal, and as per my previous post has slept alot better and not quite so restless. Maybe worth a try?
Squidipa - you are def not an intruder!! Everyone gets busy, I have noticed most people struggle to do personals these days and it is always because we are so busy with our bubs and life in general. Don't feel guilty or bad about it, because we are all in the same situation and if anyone is going to understand it is going to be us!! Chubby comment - way to go Josh!! I haven't had one of those either, I just get the "Oh, he's so tiny...." hehe.
Ok, time to go out. :hello: to everyone! I hope you are all enjoying your....what day is it?.....Sunday!! :redface:
MT:I found i was havinf to get up loads to re-wrap G so stopped wrapping a few weeks ago, i find she sleeps SO much better at night with out being wrapped, even with the recent unsettledness, (not due to not being wrapped) IYKWIM. Have tried a few times to leave unwrapped in the day but she isnt quite ready for that.
Happy Birthday Aricyn!!
Well, the sleep issues seem to be calming down, or atleast taking a different turn! We went out for lunch yesterday and G didnt sleep while we were out, so by the time we got home at 3pm she was so tired, put her down for a snooze but had to wake her at 5pm, otherwise it would have totally messed her night up! SHe was fine and just went to bed abit later than normal, had 2 wake ups in the night (12 and 3) but she slept till 5.30!!! :dance:
Hi to everyone else, got to go, heaps of stuff to do while G is sleeping!!
MTI wish it was that.... unfortunately I have had these battles at naptime as well and I don't normally wrap her then.... but gave up on the wrap tonight.... and she is lying in bed kicking her little feet like crazy to make her mobile move.... I've given up trying to help her sleep as long as she's not screaming I'm out here. I'll let you know if she goes better without the wrap but as it happens at naptime too, I daren't hope that is it!:
I wonder if they are just trying to tell us that they are over being wrapped?
hey all :hello:
Veygas WILL NOT sleep uless he is wrapped - night time or nap time! But I do the sane thing as MT, wrapping from the arm pits down, and have done this for a while cause V likes sucking his thumb!
Squidipa - you are SO NOT an intruder! :hug: Hun, I know how busy life can be!
Well, we had a saga and a half today. Got up a bit later this morning ... well, by the time V had been fed and changed it was close to 9.30am ... Did the usual, opened the door for the cats, put a load of nappies on, had breakfast, hung out nappies, put another load of washing on, had a shower ... I'm sure you get the picture! ;)
Anyways, around 12.30pm, the phone rings - it's the RSPCA ... one of our cats has been taken in ... I was able to tell them a) which cat it was; b) where she was "picked up"; c) that a man had taken her in ... the woman was astounded (you see this has happened before) ...
Funny thing is, I had a feeling after the confrontation with that stupid wildlife freak the other day that something was gonna happen to one of our cats ... other funny thing is that she was "found" (*cough* yeah right! my a$$!) in a suburb 10 minutes DRIVE away from us that is ONLY accessible via the highway! NO WAY could she have walked there in 2.5 hours (she is a little thing) - considering the RSPCA is another half hour or so on from there!
So, I know who did it and I know she did it to p*ss me off and to spite me :angry: and the STUPID thing is there is NOTHING I can do about it ... the police said she is well within her rights to take the animal to the RSPCA, despite the fact that our cats have collars with their names and PHONE NUMBERS (yes home and mobile) on them! God it's a sad life if all you've got to do with your time is make other people miserable ... GGGrrrr thing is every time she has done it, it costs US to get our cats back when she has basically taken them from right outside our house!!! :angry:
So now our poor kitty cats are being held hostage in their own house because I just can't risk this happening again, being so close to moving :( Don't get me wrong, I had every intention of keeping them inside the day and night before we move, but this woman is just crazy ... But you know what, I think I'll just let karma take care of her .... ;)
Anyway, sorry for ranting and venting but our cats are like our kids and I sooooo hate stoopid people!
Night all!
mwah! xxx
