Koru - Good luck with moving house. I always think it would be so much easier if you could just leave everything behind and start from scratch - and then reality kicks in and you realise you cann't afford to buy new funiture and possessions for an entire house... ahh to be a billionaire where you could pay someone else to do everything for you, or just buy new things because you are too lazy to pack everythin... But that might just be me I still have boxes that haven't been unpacked in the garage - we moved about 18mths ago now :eek:
Megsmum - I hope E is feeling better.
Everyone else - Hello.
Baz has been a bit sooky today and yesterday (very unusual) - I wasn't sure whether maybe he was getting sick or something. Well I met up with a friend today and she noticed he's unusual behaviour and then she pointed out that he is getting some more teeth in - I hadn't even noticed. He's behaviour suddenly makes sense now, particularly the nipple biting...
koru - welcome back. I'd wondered where you had go to. Glad Orla had a good time meeting the rellies. Has your visit made you more motivated to go back?
Fortunately we moved just before M arrived. But we had a toddler so kinda counts. The weekend before the move we sent him off to the ILs for the weekend and on the day he went to daycare so we could get into it without having little hands unpacking what we'd just packed. So if you can try to have someone look after her, tho as you're BF that might not be possible. A good friend of mine is moving house soon. Actually she will be in hospital delivering twins while her DH oversees the move. She will go home to a new house. Even so I don't envy her. misty - teething's the worst! Hope Baz doesn't suffer for too long.
You don't need to be a billionaire to get a new house with all new possessions! You see those rental properties on TV where the tenants have trashed the place and left all their stuff behind. It always amazes me that people can just leave all their clothes etc behind. How can they afford to get all new stuff all the time?? I've still got boxes to unpack from when we moved into our old home 9 years ago!
Noticed your ticker! Almost half way - you're doing so well!!!! Megs - hope E gets better soon. M has had bronchiolitis too. Its so frustrating listening to them wheeze and cough and there's nothing you can give them to help. Rach - thanks! I've just sent in the request so you'll see soon enough!
All good here.

: congrats to misty
Koru - Welcome back! and goodluck with the move! We moved on Jan 4th this year, with 2 kiddies. I had my sisters look after bubs and DS1 all day, as I had to stay at the house and unpack. I found it easier to get someone to watch them all day, so that I could really get cracking on unpacking things as they came in, that way, by the time night came, we were all unpacked and the kids could go straight to bed. I am breastfeeding too, but bubs had EBM and one formula bottle to get through the day. You definately need someone to help out I think, and get as much done as possible when you dont have the kids. And biggest tip is....BE ORGANISED and pack something everyday, so that by the time moving day comes along, its just a matter of loading it up and unpacking!
Misty - I hope poor Baz isnt too uncomfortable...poor bubba. Teeth cause so much grief dont they?
Koru - great to see you hun! Goodluck with the move!
Misty - poor lil baz, he has been having a rough go hey? What did the dr say about the worms?
Saffi -
Megsmum - poor little E. I suffered terribly with bronchitus and croup as a bub. Not very nice. I really hope she gets better soon, or off to the hossy to help . Goodluck hun.
AFU - NO sleep last night! DS not too impressed with teeth....neiter are we . Today we are making stuff for the christening, should be fun!
Issy & lochie - Happy happy 6 months my gorgeous god son! You are just a joy, we love you!
Well I am taking antibiotics atm, which are not able to be taken whilst breastfeeding. So bubs is on the bottle for the next few days, while I wait for the antibiotics to do theitr job and leave my system. I am expressing and throwing the milk out, but I am not sure how this is going to affect my supply, or my weightloss this week. And is it silly that I actually feel sad that he has taken to the bottle so well, and doesn't seem to care if I am breastfeeding or not?
He is off solids at the moment. I tried to feed him pumpkin about 4days ago now, he hated it and is still refusing anything offered on a spoon because of the pumpkin. Oh well we will stick to finger foods at the moment.
As for the worms, Will have to wait until I am off my antibiotics and then treat the entire family (just in case Baz has reinfected anyone else). Hopefully that is it then.
Misty - I thought you could take some abs while BFing? I'm no expert but may be worth double checking if you don't want to be pumping & dumping. Hope you feel better soon and that Baz is feeling OK today too.
Saffi - How long did M take to get over her bronchiolitis? We had another shocker last night poor little girl But at least she is not too bad by day. Happy 6 months to you and Lochie
Rach - Oh no about the sleep, I know how you feel!
Hi Issy, Willow, Trish, salboo and anyone I've missed.
Oh and I forgot to say yesterday too, E can sit now yay! She finally got things happening over the weekend, sickness and all.
I still have boxes that haven't been unpacked in the garage - we moved about 18mths ago now :eek:
. Goodluck hun.
