Hi all,

Sara, crazy little midgets copying off each other again, I don;t know. I ended up handing him over to hiss dad, expressed a bottle and got right out of the picture. MIL bought tea around too which was good. He didn't go to sleep till 10pm (which is so not normal. Already had a bath I didn't really want hi having another. He just constantly wanted food 'cause he could smell me.

Neuri We are approaching 8 weeks, he didn't do this at the 6 week mark. Smiles will come soon.

Kristen congrats and welcome. You sound like you have one very healty little girl there. Xavier is 8 weeks on Friday and is only just wearing one or 2 00's mostly still 000's depending on brands.
Good to hear your both doing so well, I too feel like I always have a boob hanging in the breeze.

Evening ladies,

Ended up getting distracted with tea. Plus Colby wants to be glued to by boob from about 5pm until bedtime. Which mind you in half an hour early tonight at 8pm. I am waiting to hear her start crying at any minute now!!

Bec - Xav must've just been that little bit hungrier hey! Colby has her days like that too. How's he going tonight??

Kirsten - Good to hear from you hun. Congratulations on Lauren. She, like Colby, was a big bubba! Forgive me but i have forgotten...but you were booked for the c-sect??? Why were you in hospital 3 days prior?? Complications??? Can't wait to hear your birth story. We are'nt quite into OO's here. Still wearing some OOOO. Even though Colby is such a chubby bubba she is still quite small IYKWIM. Lauren seems to be growing like a champ! 5.8kg's already!. Last time we had Colby weighed she was 5.69kg's. That was a week ago. Our girls seem to be very close in measurements don't they! Colby was born 9lbs 7oz, 52cm and her HC was 35cm. I'd hate to think what Colby would've grown to had i been overdue!

Neuri - As Bec said, the smiles will come! They are worth waiting for!

Well we have had one chatty little girl here today. Colby and i went into town and i had to go and see my mum at her work. My mum works in a nursing home and i quite often take Briley in there for all the oldies to fuss over. So today i left Briley at home and took Colby. Well the oldies went ballistic! Aswell as mums workmates. I was quite proud to hear everyone say how beautiful she was. Makes you happy to know that you are'nt they only ones that think they are beautiful!

When Briley was first born we took her in aswell and mum showed one of the residents her. We were all standing there watching as this lady was pretty frail and she started crying. Ofcourse we all started getting watery eyed too. I think Briley being so young must have upset her. She was almost at the end of her life and here was this newborn at the start of hers. Was a touching moment to all of us.

Yeah so anyways...back to Colby. So yes, she has been a chatter box all day. Talking to all the old biddies at mums work. Then when we got home i put her down in her bassinette for a sleep and she was chatting away to herself. Ofcourse when i tried to get it on my camera the battery was flat!

Well don't think there is much else to report. I have made it to the end of this post and Colby is still asleep!! Might get an early night myself!

Before i forget....Has everyone posted their Birth Stories??? I love reading them and there is no new ones!!

Hope you are all well.

Night!

Hello, my name is Claire and my son Cameron was born on 22nd August. Can I join your group???

I have posted the birth story in the birth stories bit.

Today we go and see the paediatrician to find out about his UTI he got at 2 weeks old. All the tests have come back clear so far so at least it is nothing too serious.
I have also done something stupid and lifted heavy thing yesterday and now have a small hole and a lot of pain in my C-section scar, so have to try and get in to see my obstetrician today!!

Looking forward to getting to know you all
Claire
