Ali- lol about the private party in the bedrm. Sadly, neither DH nor I can even remember the possible event/s that led to Willa. Either we are getting old or we were partying too much at the time. No partying now of course. 30 mins of alone time at dinner is like a celebration for us already heh.
Interesting story though, if u guys have time to read! I'm tempted to regale you ladies with it seeing as the Mind Body Spirit Expo is back in Sydney this week. Well I attended the November 2006 MBS Expo last year and as a lark, we all booked a 30 mins reading with a psychic. I picked a 'past lives expert' as a hoot but somehow my booking got mixed up and I ended up with a tarot reader instead. Her name was Rebecca Rose (I still remember her delicate whispy voice). Anyway, at the time I was settling nicely into my first real job after finishing uni and never having been very maternal (nor liking kids very much), a baby was the laaaast thing on my mind. So imagine my surprise and skepticism when she just came out and said very bluntly, "you're going to have a baby girl after the middle of next year." And then she said she saw more baby girls in my family as well. I was like, "pffft!" I thought tarot readers were supposed to be more suggestive rather than blatant.
Lo and behold, here I am, exactly one year later with a 3 month old baby girl born in August!! The expo is back this year and am going to see if the lady is still doing readings. I might wave Willa in her face and shriek, "OMG YOU CALLED IT!!" hehehe
Becca- Yup, i wldn't mess with that beaut of a nightsleep if I were u! I get what u mean about not taking Xavier out much. I think sometimes ppl forget what a logistical nightmare it is to travel with a little baby. It takes me ages to get everything packed, baby, DH and myself dressed and wondering if I forgot anything...
Shell - lucky that Lanah is a good traveller. Willa is calm when we're in motion too. I dread red lights! Must be a universal thing for bubs.
Cor - those blood tests sound awful. It must be really difficult getting blood from such tiny veins. Good to know its not likely to be reflux. I wanted to ask: do babies really keep taking feeds even if they're full? Are you bf cameron of giving him formula. I'm doing both currently an am wondering if i'm over feeding sometimes. I'm sure the blood tests results will reveal nothing more than that Cameron is just a big, healthy bub.
Janda - Welcome10.5lbs would have been an effort! Still a good sized bub though! Our 'routine' is almost exactly yours except Willa's sleep in the morning lasts till noon. When was your DS diagnosed and how was it diagnosed?
Scone - I demand to see pics of Jensen's winning outfit. How cute!
KIm- wow on the rolling!!! Still nothing on my end though plenty of grabbing stuff and mouthing. Her fav thing to mouth now is a soft book.
THat's enough from me. I'm going to go raid the fridge now. Weighed WIillz yesterday and she is now 6.5 kg. SO far so good.
