Hey,

Em got weighed again this morning, up 80g. v good n mw was happy. couldn't get CYH as public holiday, der. my friend had a baby girl this morning! 8lb15!!! this friend is quite petite too! they named her Georgia. I cant believe she's heavier than Emma is now!

Bit annoyed that i have to watch what i eat more now as i am not bf but now i have good pram have been walking every day, well yesterday n today... i promise to do it tomorrow too! also not looking forward to AF coz bf makes it stay away longer.

Slowdown was funny, 1 of the celebs got the umpire to show him how to kick on the angle he was on, and he got the goal! they need to put it bac to adelaide oval next year as aami stadium is not good with prams n babies, they dont even have change tables! Guy Sebastian didn't even get a touch! Lleyton hewitt hasn't played since marrying Bec Cartwright. btw their little girl looks heaps like Sarah!

Re Dummies, we took the dummy away in 1 night with Sarah as she had a blankie that she used as more of a comfort than the dummy. We will get rid of Emma's dummy b4 she turns 1 and after her fixation with her hands is gone. I can't stand seeing kids suck their thumbs!

Re immunisations, yea having a feed afterwards will calm them down, even if they r not due for 1 they will take a little snack usually. Panadol is good too.

Re Dreamfeeds, Em needs to be awake or she wont suck, her main prob with weight, but thankfully she will settle down again straight away.

Re DTD (i know tmi but ull get over it) would have been sooner if not in hossy but managed to get proper DTD last night. No interruptions! trust me thats hard with 2 under 18 mnths!

Re wrapping, Sarah hated being wrapped. the cyh nurse told me that all babies love being wrapped, then i showed her! Em loves it tho. I use Huge muslin squares as cant wrap tightly enough with anything smaller. these r pretty much half a cot sheet! 120mm by 120mm. have 2 get sum 4 my sister... gotta write a list

we aren't having probs with wind as much now coz 1) we burp her multiple times thru the feed, 2) she doesn't get as much air in with the narrow necked bottles as she would with breast or wide neck bottles, 3) when she does have wind we use brauer colic relief.

Re peeing, yes girls do it too, they just don't get enough distance usually n end up getting their clothes. i always have the new nappy underneath n get the old one out of the way asap. she is usually only uncovered for up to 30 secs while i wipe her.

Wow, long post! gtg feed em!
