what cream r u using chon?
Hi
I got the Sudocream normally but got the curash brand as it is thicker and has the almond oil in it.............I just thought.....could she get a slight reaction from the new cream??? and thats why its not healing quickly........??
Where do you get the Paw Paw cream Linz, National Pharmacy??? (I get 20% off there) and what brand? Cant hurt to try, thanks.
I agree go the paw paw cream it is so soothing as well I use it all the time for myself and when Charly had a cold but it on her lips/nose. I'm sure it says on the container it can be used for nappy rash. Any Pharmacy will have it
Wow 6 teeth, still waiting for one. When Charly bites on something clear I can see the bottom two and two at the top.
Hi there, I'm new here and was quite happy when I found this thread. It has been nice to read over what is going on in your lives with your babies and realise that I am not the only one in the world going through this!
Hi all4lil, welcome to BB join in with what ever is on your mind. We all have our bumps/dramas good and bad. Its good to vent sometimes along with the cheering these special moments, with people who are going thought the same or similiar and can understand when you need to just get something out. Mind you must of the time it is a cheer squad.
Every morning I check for teeth although I am sure I will feel it with her first feed LOL.
I have taken Charly to Storytime at the library the last couple of Fridays, she enjoys it but I think I enjoy it more at the moment so many toddlers around. Today she was facsinated with the guy next to us and kept reaching out and touching him on the shoulder. He was very good about it and would talk to her and then she would be touching his face :lol:
Need to make sure she is buckled in the pram now as tried to lift herself out today was up on her knees, gave me a fright when I looked at her balancing one bump and she would have been out.
Hi all4lil! Welcome to December babies, the more the merrier:D
Feel free to discuss whatever you want as we all try to help each other, give support or just congratulate milestones.
Well I got the paw paw lotion, even the lady at the pharmacy raved about its benefits! First lot goes on after the bottle I'm giving her now. Thankyou so much guys, I never would of known about this stuff otherwise:)
Went out with my Mum today for some retail therapy, Mum (nanna) spoiled Maya. She got a whole lot of toys that she can play with at her house including a swing as she is there at least once or twice a week. Felt good to go out.
My aim this week is to try and get Charly to bed/sleep by 7.30 each night. Think we need that time just be a couple. Seem like we hardly see each other as DH is work long hours at the moment, so we are both snappy and grumpy at each other over little things or nothing.
I have given up doing all the house work each day/ week, those day sleep are just not happening at the moment. She was so good at about 3 months (before we down to Adelaide) a 2-3 hour nap in the afternoon.
I brought a ball with a face on it that has 4 balls attached on string, when you touch the face the ball moves along the ground, so Charly can crawl after it. I have had my eye on it for a while, was hoping it would come on special but no such luck have only seen it at one store and it was the last one so had to grab it. Charly loves it. I have never been a shop but now need to stop myself, its all for Charly and so hard to pass up.... if I don't stop I will have to go back to work sooner to pay for it all.:rolleyes:
Know how you feel Linz, I am not looking forward to going back in October. Just thinking about leaving her all day brings tears to my eyes, even though she will be with Granma. DH as a good job, if we want to get ahead with the mortgage I need to go back. Plus when I fall preg again I think I need to be a work at least 6 months to get paid Maternity Leave. It only 2 days be still tough.
Happy 7 Months Laila
Guess I am luck with work they were happy to let me come back on my terms, and if I need to work from home some days that OK.
So far the down by 7.30 is working and can her her starting to wake up now. Did have a few wake up during the night 9, 2.30 and 5.30.
Hiya
Haven't had too much to post in the last couple of days. Nappy rash is still stubborn but its not getting worse. Should I be putting sudocrem on top of the paw paw lotion???, because thats what I'm doing.
I would just go with the paw paw cream, I don't use sudocrem had a sample and didn't like it but it is zinc based and don't think it would get through the paw paw cream. I use Bepanthen cream, just as a prevention so far.
I found another post on here about nappy rash and a lot of people are raving about the paw paw lotion so I'm going to put it on a bit thicker, don't think I was putting enough on.
Hi everyone! Welcome to our little group, Benita - always nice to meet someone new :)
Wow, how about Laila's teeth! She must have a beautiful smile, Linz.
Storytime sounds great, Charlysmum, I agree - so many of these fun kids activities are so great for their parents ;) The toy sounds interesting... Sounds like Charly is getting very mobile!!!
Sorry about the nappy rash, Chantal. Natalie has had nappy rash and eczema that is driving me up the wall. It just wont go away. I think the eczema is due to the cold, and the nappy rash, while it is much better now than when she first got it, is sticking around and is so annoying. I tried sudocreme, bepanthen, pawpaw ointment... the doc told me to get some hydrocortisone for both the nappy rash and the eczema, but I've only used it sparingly to stop inflamation - I hear it can thin their skin if you use too much. Anyway, SIL and the doc told me that there is often thrush in nappy rash, so if it is really stubborn, you could talk to your doc or pharmacist about some canesten cream to get rid of it. Other than that, the frequent nappy changes and barrier creams are all we can do to keep them comfy, I guess.
Our long weekend away was great - we stayed in a lighthouse cottage, right on the water - it was just so beautiful. It was cold, but not unbearably so, and it was really relaxing for Natalie and I. Though, her sleep was disgraceful. Fed her just about every two hours overnight, and she sometimes woke more frequently than that to be settled. On a couple of occasions she slept for 3.5 hours in a row, which was refreshing :rolleyes: This morning we both had a brilliant nap, LOL!
She's doing beautifully with the eating - had breakfast and dinner every day while we were away, even though she was drinking so much milk overnight. Maybe a growth spurt... She's a lot of fun, anyway. Chatting so much more now and sitting pretty well on her own. Still nowhere near crawling, though!!
Sounds like you had a good trip Amy, except the feeds, sometimes I think Charly wakes a lot because she likes to snuggle at night since its cold.
Charly has been getting on her knees and hands and wobbling back and forward, especially if she can use me as the base ... knees in my lap hands on my shoulders and bum going crazy.LOL
Solids are good if she could have fruit and custard all day she would be happy.
Charly slept thru the night from 8.30 to 6.30 :dance: would have slept longer, I went in to check on her and she caught me, she would have put herself back to sleep:doh:.
Woohoo!!! WTG Charly. LOL about her catching you checking on her... Cheeky girl ;)
Well done Charly!!
