Morgan: sorry I forgot in my last post to say good luck for tomorrow. I hope vicky goes ok without any feeds. ((hugs)) thinking of you

[Trish]

Vicky I hope all goes well today. Poor Vicky having to go that long without a feed. You'd think the hosp would be smarter when it comes to little babies

I have a 2 year 9 month gap between Joel and Brandon, 2 years and 10 months between Noah and Tehya, and 2 Years 8 months between Tehya and Abbey. So yes, we can see when I'm fertile. I would have to say taht as trying as it is, this is a great age gap. The older one is more independant, although you can pretty much guarentee the minute I am getting Abbey to sleep Tehya wants her butt wiped.

I agree in having the toddler in pre school/daycare before bub arrives too, even it's just a day a week. It gives you a days break when preg, and also a day for just you and bub once it is here. Also by starting the toddler at daycare before bubs arrival it won't feel as though it is being pushed out of the way iykwim. Not that it is what you are doing of course.

I hope everyone is going well. I do read what is going on with everyone, I just rarely get the chance to post.

Abbey is getting over her chest infection thankfully and my happy little girl is back. She has turned into a thumb sucker now. Funny I was feeding her the other night and she holds onto my boob while feeding, anyway I looked down at her and she had slipped her thumb in beside my nipple into her mouth so she was sucking on both. PMSL, Obviously my nipple wasn't enough for her.

thats pretty funny. (thumb/nipple sucking)

We have poop issues again. 7 days this time. finally this morning she did one. I am hoping that was the reason she has stopped sleeping through!

Kayla has started sucking her thumb too! I've been quickly replacing it with a teething ring or something tho... I don't like thumb suckers LOL. How on earth do you wean off the thumb??? I don't wanna begin to think about it. Having trouble getting rid of Tallon's hair habit (playing with my hair as comfort).. let alone weaning of something so readily available.

Oh, and as for sleep, Kayla is a hopeless sleeper at the moment Driving me mental.

Liz - Alex does that hair thing & it is starting to bug me & he sucks his thumb
Trish - love the thumb/nipple

Thanks to all for you well wishes will let you know how we go later today

what is is about thumbs at this age? mylo chucked the dummy and found his thumb. great i say, whatever helps him self sooth! i reckon he'll stop thumb sucking on his own when it's served it's purpose. like olly did with dummy. only thing is he sucks his thumb so hard it goes purple.

the last few nights have been pretty good, relatively speaking. only 2-3 wake ups and hardly any screaming. i feel refreshed.

morgan good luck with vicky

bekz i too feel sorry for dh- i want my libido back!!!!! i love my husband so much i just want to show him the spontaneous passion we usually have.

mylo has a yukky cough - face slippery with snot all the time. poor little bub.

i've been unreasonable mummy again: i heard myself say to Olly "stop carrying on like a 2 year old" - oh yeah, you're 2. sorry darling. mummy having grumpy day.

I am having a cruisy morning. Simon is mowing the yard so the boys are with him, although they are upstairs having a snack at the moment as he has gone to buy spark plugs. Olivia is asleep she is like clock work with her morning naps. always 8:30-9am she goes down. Sometimes for an hour sometimes for 3...

Can I just say I love school holidays
