Hi all,

Sehra, no time like the present for the men to get a hold on this looking after bubs business. I figure the sooner nathan starts the quicker he'll learn. Did you express for hubby to feed her. one thing nathan does is he screws the top of the bottle on too tight (boy tightness like when they do it for a bottle in the fridge, making it impossible to undo) anywho by putting the top of the bottle on too tight it makes it harder to suck and they get wind worse. and I got 7 hours of sleep. I think that's good. I hope the check up goes well.


Claire sounds like you have a basketballer on your hands there. Lol you won't be able to hide many things on the top shelf away from him for long. With sleep I have just been lucky. Xavier started telling me when he was tired and wanted to sleep so I made sure he got what he wanted. eventually I guess he is just slowly getting used to longer and longer sleeps.

Sara, this might make you laugh. It seems danielle and I did a little switch a roo. Xavier was due to arrive on the 27th of july yet arrived on the 3rd of august. She stole my dues date


Rhiannon, a few weeks ago xavier had a f=very similar sleeping pattern to what you described for jensen. He has been increasing it gradually though. I'm sure you will find jensen will do the same.

krist, yay on the sleep in, that's fantastic. I'm glad that you are happy with how everything is going and your family is happy and healthy too.

Trying breastmilk? I have to say it weirds me out more than anything. claire your right we shouldn't be appauled by it because it is made for us and well bubs dont complain. I still find it a little freaky that I produce milk

Well we had a pretty good day today. decided to get some infants friend gave him a little with his lunch time feed and got a huge burp, and then had better burps than usual for all his feeds until he went to bed. So I think he just needed one really good burp to clear things out.
I also bought today a medicine dispenser that is a dummy and bubs sucks on it. I'm wondering if anyone has ever used these? I thought it might be handy because Xavier might be less likley to send the medicine back my way if he was feeling a bit chucky iykwim

Night, I'm buggerd - oo did you all know that k-mart have their terry suits(like wondersuits) on special for under $5 this week. They are pretty good still for something that will be peed, pooed and spewed on.
