bleedles! love it!
we're about to enter a new ice age here - 4-5 days under 30 degrees!

hmm. DS has just asked DH to bring him something different to drink because ther's a big scary rat in his water bottle...
Miri has a cold! Which explains the particularly bad sleep of late. Just snotty really, but she probably feels like crap too poor love.

Hello , jumping in, sort of missed the Belly Buddies and have come in to go straight to Baby Buddies! I had a premmie baby in December, he's full of smiles and very cuddley. I'm moving to Essendon shortly so will be a big move for us.

Just wanted to say hello hes decided hes not going to sleep tonight so procrastinating on forums inbetween tantrums

[*EJ*]

MadB to see a little one sick for whatever reason is terrible. I hope Miri feels better really quick. Enjoy the ice age

WinterRaven welcome How did you little man go last night?

Harper seems ok today so far... We got her to sleep after a 6pm feed and having a really sore belly after it. Then she woke about 8pm and brought it up again. After that she slept until 2am and fed with no vomiting. Fed again at 5ish i think and still no vomiting. Some yukky nappies and still a little uncomfortable i think but so far we seem to be doing better. She's sleeping now. Please be gone now

Maybe life can get back to normal now.

Have a great day ladies

EJ - I'm so happy to hear Harper is doing better today - poor little thing, what a horrible horrible thing to have... I bet you're exhausted too. Hopefully the worst has passed!! I feel bad for making Jacob sound like a terror, he's really not. He's a really happy little boy and we have loads of fun, it's just the day sleeps that had gotten hard, and his reflux seemed to be setting in again, he was crying during feeds, but thankfully that's settled down again. Poor little fella was out of sorts from his needles still today and has been sleeping non stop, wakes for a feed and goes back to sleep within half an hour...it's amazing seeing him sleep this much as he hasn't done it in a while. I hope he feels better soon. He hasn't been complaining but he's had a few high temps so I've had to use panadol. So strange, he didn't have any reactions from the first set of needles....but these have been a different story. He's still been full of smiles though, bless him Bleedles

MadB - Enjoy the cooler days! Finally!! Hope Miri is feeling better soon.

WinterRaven - Welcome to our group Look forward to hearing more about you and your little man soon. Good luck with the move...moving is horrible at the best of times, let alone with a little one!! Hope you have some help

Pretty good day here - spent most of it keeping an eye on Jacob, like I told EJ, he's been getting fevers today so I've had to bust out the panadol. He wasn't whingy at all, feeds were great, has been really snuggly (which I love) and an extra bonus was that he didn't fight sleep once today, it was so refreshing I even got a few mini naps in too! (when I wasn't jumping up at every sound he made cause I was worried about him) Hope you all had a great day. Sweet dreams xoxo

EJ - I hope Harper continues on the up! Yay on lifting and investigating!!!!!!

Welcome WinterRaven!

Jules - awww poor little man.

Us - took Will to visit a friend of mine, went through 4 bibs and left my spew rag there He's doing really well, unfortunately he fell asleep on the lounge floor at around 7pm and I'm scared to move him! Taking him to work tomorrow as I start to make sure what's happening on Tuesday when I return, I told my manager need to review where I'll be expressing

ice age!
bleedles!

dream pretty all.

Hi all!

I LOVE Autumn, cool but sunny. Perfect. MadB, I bet you're cracking out the woollies about now I hope Miri is recovering from her cold.

Crumpet, Millie is the old lady of the group at 20 weeks - she arrived early but I begged and pleaded and they let me stay in this group She's grabbing things very deliberately - toys and my hair. OUCH. She is chewing and drooling on everything. So very cute. She's loving her feet right now too.

Jules, hope Jacob gets past the immunisation woes soon

EJ fingers crossed that the lurgie is gone for good. I got the machine from a repairman - we got talking about old machines while he was checking out my stupid plastic POS and he brought up the reconditioned elna. It's heavy as and sews beautifully!

Hi WinterRaven!

Kaz, hope the return to work goes well!

Another big day yesterday, went for our MG walk on a perfect autumn morning. We stop for coffee along the way and our coffee stops are getting longer and longer The little ones are starting to interact with each other a lot, checking each other out and smiling etc. SO cute! Met my parents for lunch (they are down for Dad's medical appt and Mum is staying to look after my sister when she has a hysterectomy next week), then went home to make Mum's b'day cake. Bathed Millie before we went to my sister's for Mum's b'day dinner. She was a bit out of sorts when we got there and didn't want to be held by anyone but me or DH. We fed her and put her to bed in her new KinderKot! She slept so well, it bodes well for our trip to Germany!

Today we're having a quiet one as I'm waiting for a Woolies Homeshop delivery. We thought we'd give it a try as I'm tired of using my "me" time to go grocery shopping. Bugger that! I am pottering around doing little jobs. I went to download the recent photos and video frm our camera... and the memory card has corrupted. SO upset. It's only the past week's worth, but I had some awesome shots and a couple of hilarious videos Will see if IT guru DH can retrieve them, but may have to kiss them goodbye.

Hope you're all well!

lordy im dragging my sorry behind already!

Crumpet, DD isn't only just reaching for things a bit now, not grabbing at all. Probably a few weeks off I think.

ok cool thanks!

DS2 is just grabbing our hair and sucking his hand - he's exploring his activity mat with the hanging toys, he knocks them around and is learning to grasp the toys.

summah has been sucking her hands for a good 5-6 weeks now, she has got that mastered! and she is doing the same with her toys, she bashes them but its occasionally trying to grab at them...

Crumpet - Jacob has only in the last week started grabbing onto toys (with his knowledge anyway! He used to grab them by mistake sometimes...) But he's still getting the hang of it Summah sounds like she isn't far off it now either. Yeah we do have trouble with Jacobs day sleeps but not at night, thankfully. Day time I just have to be careful that I don't let him fight it for too long or he gets really difficult.

im noticing each day she is slowly getting better and better at trying to reach for things, she just cant grip onto anything unless i open her fist and put it there, and even then it lasts 30 seconds....

oh no u poor thing! but at least he settles at night!

I do know what you mean with the needles. They do that here, the town is REALLY small (only about 1500 people) so the health centre only has one nurse so they only offer the immunisation clinic on two days a month and she has to have a second person there incase of any emergencies and the second person helps with the needles also. I definately prefer that he gets them both at the same time...having one shock is much less stressful for both us and them!!!

summah gets her vac's done at the paeds office and he does one and has a nurse there to do the other at the same time, like u guys i much prefer it, one big scream and its over!

Still not well here, Harper has been a bit more lively today but still not keeping feeds down and this evening she has been in a lot of discomfort so i think her tummy must be cramping. Had a few really grose nappies too. Dr says we've got a mild case i dont want to see what a bad one is.

Crumpet and Charlotte i'm struggling to remember what you guys were up to from the last thread but i hope all is good and i will do my best to catch up when things settle for us.

you poor things hope ur on the mend!

all good hun, nothing overly interesting going on here!

The talk about needles made me remember something...

My cousin was telling us on the weekend how her little boy calls needles... bleedles Haha I love it, so cute don't you think??

gotta love kids!

oh wow she is doing well! summah throws her feet in the air but has no idea they are attatched yet!

AFU: not much to report really, went for a picnic with some friends today...
poor summah got a bit of a fright with the all the other bubs made, they are all round the 10 month mark, but she survived the ordeal!

off to target tomorrow to expand her winter clothing collection while they have a sale on!
