Hello ladies - I was in the September 15-30, 2009 belly buddies group but my dear sweet Caitlin was born on 09/08/09 due to PE complications. She is currently in the NICU.
Congratulations on the births of your bubbas - just getting in to the thread.
Congratulations everyone on the arrivals of your babies.
TK - hope Caitlin is doing well in NICU and will be home with you soon. Rhia - I had wondered what you named your son. Daniel is such a nice name.
Hi Cass. Love the name too - very elegant.
AFM - everything is going well with Imogen (Immi for short). She is a totally different baby from DS and so far we haven't had too many issues with her. Being a second time parent makes the difference I think. She sleeps a lot and when she is not sleeping or feeding she loves being held in our arms. Her little brother is besotted with her. He has nicknamed her Mimi which we think is so cute.
I'll pop in when I can to say hello and look forward to hearing how everyone is going in the months to come.
Hey everyone would have popped in earlier but things have been chaotic!!
William was born on the 1/8/09 at 7.24 weighting 3.285kg..
Were doing ok.. His big sister has been a little naughtier than usual but not only has she started sleeping through the night but she's very caring towards william (we often call him billy as our daughter (asha) is unable to say william and we like the nickname).. She gives him cuddles and kisses and brings me hats and things when he's crying to try and help .. Were having a few issues with his feeding and weight gain atm which has me very on edge and upset.. Because I didn't manage to bfeed my first and I am this time round im pretty anxious about it all.. On top of that he isn't gaining as much weight as he should or pooing much.. He wasn't weeing as much as is recomended either but that's picked up over the last few days which is great!! We have a check up tmw so fingers crossed he's put on more weight and the dr can help us with his pooing ahhh the joys of it all!!!
Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying their bubbas!!
