Good luck Kim !!! That must be so exciting. Because Milla was a suprise for us, we are actually looking forward to "trying" for #2 (later this year, not just yet), just so we can experience that excitement and anxious wait (and I am sure, our share of disappointments too...) Anyway - all the best, and make sure you keep us posted! Is it a lot easier this time around, if they already have the frosties?? Thanks for your advice re sleeping too. I definitely think Milla is being a bit more clingy... not cuddly, but just wanting only me, and not DH etc. She still wriggles away everytime we want a cuddle, unless its at 2am in the morning...
Good luck with Ella's tooth Molly... I think they normally come pretty close together (there was only a few days in between Milla's bottom two). We're still waiting for the top ones, and I think I can see them.
As for formula/night sleeps... well. Milla just refuses formula entirely. I am secretly relieved that she doesn't love it more than boobiesWe've tried different temperatures, different brands, and different cups, and DH tried all these as well as me, but she just wont drink it. I've put it on weetbix for her, just to use it up, since I spent $8 on different sachets. So, I have given up on the formula idea, and my new scheme, which we began today, is to wean her off the dummy. I think half the time she is waking at night looking for her dummy. She's just gone down for her second day sleep without it, with no protests (but she was dog tired, she nearly fell asleep in her high chair). We're going cold turkey, I'll keep you posted.
Scone, that's great about TT, and I would keep going and ignore all the comments. I think about plonking Milla on the loo sometimes too, cause she ALWAYS does a wee on the floor as soon as I take her nappy off before her bath (we let her have naked time for ten mins or so before the bath, and she just crawls around the wooden floor, does a wee and then tries to lick it... lovely, I know!!)
I hope Jensen's sleep improves for you too.... Maybe this 8 month stage is just a bad sleep period, lots of our bubs are pretty restless... Are you going to try sleep school? When Milla was 10 weeks I took her to Bubba Hush for a day-stay, and the lady was great at identifying the problem back then (was wind, fixed instantly by Brauers), BUT< she advised me to use the dummy, and didn't really spell out when I should stop, and that damn dummy has been ruining our sleeps lately... Are there other sleep schools in Brisbane that you've heard of? I think I'll persevere with Milla without going to one, but you never know, I could get desperate. I just really don't want to CC.
Hope the rest of you are all well!
