    Hi ladies,

    Hope everyone is doing great!

    Saffi - thanks for asking, Lochie is sleeping better, was only up once over night which was nice, Im praying he continues to get better again, I miss my sleep!!!!! Wow, M is doing great with her weight gain, she must love her food!

    Salboo - Hi. Max sounds like a lovely healthy happy little boy...and i hope your other little gem settles into school soon...im sure he will, sometimes it takes a while, its a big thing for little people!

    Willow - i wish i was commited to losing this weight...but im not! im back to pre baby weight, but would really like to get back to pre 'trying' for baby weight! I had to put on 7 kgs just to get preg. at the moment though, im having a love affair with a gorgeous, dark, creamy companion called Cadbury!

    Megs - i wouldnt stress too much about the food, she'll eat when she's ready.

    got to fly girls, mummy duties are a calling!!!!

    Hi everyone,

    Sorry Probably TMI, but...
    I really have to get Baz treated for worms, poor bub. He has had them since he was 3 mths, but was too young to be treated. I asked the dr about it when we got 6mth immunisations the other day, but it wasn't our normal dr and this one didn't speak very good english and he didn't seem to know the answer to my question, but looked it up in some book he had and then told me not until 2yrs old! :eek: I know that is wrong - the packaging itself says from 1yr up, and on the combantrim website it says from 6mths with drs approval. So I am going to have to book another appointment with our dr, just to confirm it is ok to treat him. It cann't be nice for him, and he always has diarhea and worms in his nappy when he does a poo.

    Misty - I'm sorry but that would totally freak me out!! HOW do they think that is OK for the poor little fella??? You are doing so well to have coped with it for this long, I would be really distressed by it I think! I hope your Dr agrees to treat him.

    Salboo - I'm hearing you re the big kids starting school. It is sooo hectic and so hard to fit in all the sleeps we need to, especially because I have a 2yo that needs to have a nap as well. I swear between the school run and the boys sleeps I have no life!

    Girls, trust me, my motivation for joining the gym is purely selfish. I need some time out for myself, something to do to keep me motivated and to have some goals to work towards. I am just in such a rut being at home all the time I just needed something iykwim? If I loose some weight along the way, then great! But that's not really my motivation. I am about 3kg lighter than I was when I fell prg with DS2 so I can't really complain too much. That's not to say that I don't need to loose a kg or 5!

    Had a mummy meltdown tonight and screamed at my 2yo Not a proud moment but I was just sooooo frustrated because DS2 refused his last nap of the day which meant that it threw all my plans out to go to the gym tonight (still managed to get there, but not really for as long as I needed to) and between the kids and DH working I really only have very small windows of opportunity to go. It's all probably because I wasn't keeping an eye on the time today and I let him have two big sleeps during the day. I find that with school times I really need to try and keep him to a tight routine with his sleeps which is something I've never had to do before. But if he sleeps too much during the day he doesn't want to have a nap in the late afternoon which means he gets overtired and bedtime isn't much fun.

    Still not much progress on the solids but I am persisting. I've found that if I let him take the spoon and put it to his mouth he will eat it...a 6mo that wants to feed himself?! LOL

    misty - poor Baz! Hope your Dr can help.
    Willow - do you think that D would be better with BLS? Don't know much about it tho.
    Gotta love those mummy meltdowns! Very hard not to yell at L, DH,the dogs etc some days isn't it? Is there another Mum at the school that could help out with the school runs?
    Not long now and you'll be in the 5000 club!

    AFU - M said her first word yesterday "bubba". All yesterday she was babbling really clearly. DH noticed it first. I'm not convinced that she is actually speaking yet, but she's getting there.

    Saffi - I don't really know any of the mums at school well enough. Maybe one day. I'm not comfortable with BLS until he's a bit older. I tried it with L and it was...I dunno, frustrating and I can't handle the gagging and choking!

    WTG Immy! D is now saying 'mumma' very clearly and occasionally 'bubba'. 'Dadda' has taken a bit of a back burner, and rightly so I reckon! LOL

    Am attempting a night out to the movies tonight to see Valentine's Day...I hope D co-operates!!

    Hey Saffi congrats on your RAK and Issy too! I can't wait to see your avvy's!!!!

    Misty - poor little Baz - I would have been peeking aswell. Hope Dr sorted it out for you!

    Saffi - DS said 'mumma' and says 'mum' too. Not on demand at all - so I think maybe a fluke!

    Willow - hope you have a better day
