EJ, that's sucky about the sleeping bag, she's still young. I put Will in his sleeping bag (with arms!) but then I tuck a sheet around him firmly so he has the comfort of the pressure, but not as firm as a wrap? That nursery wear sounds interesting, can you PM me a link?
PP - I'm so sorry your yoga didn't go as planned, but yay on the lovely stranger. Somehow this has reminded me of EJ's photo, of all 3 kids doing everything "wrong" with her and her hubby looking serene in the middle of it all. I do hope her reflux settles down for you - boo on DH buying a different formula!!!! My DH bought a different formula too (silver lid, not gold lid) and we had a very unsettled Will here! Mind you, some mothers in my old mothers' group just chopped & changed with whatever was on special, but then they were also jealous at my bub who slept long .. hmmm :thinking:
I also strongly recommend gardening - the satisfaction of pulling weeds and seeing the difference is great! I now take Will into the garden with me, him in his rocker, while I potter around relaxing. MEH on your DH sleeping through though, that sux.
Yay on the results!!! well done, that's a HUGE achievement!!!
AFM - well, he's very unsettled. have been having to rock and wear him to settle him. DH has been wanting to look at houses, so wore him while traipsing around the property etc, and it was the only feed that he settled nicely after. He's very engaged with us, big smiles. We're also seeing him wake up a bit before needing a feed too, and I swear he is recognising Pip!!! but his poor little legs have huge bruises from the injections, but no side-effects that I can see. I think it's a week until any reaction from the oral vaccine though?
Anyhows, I'd best get going, but before I do, is everyone feeling OK in themselves? I know it's a bit weird with either first bub or additional ones, but please, take that time to just be *you* for a little while. I did that today by baking (lactation cookies!) while doing loads of washing. So very nice to just take the time while Will was asleep to have silence ...
