Awww Trish that sux hard... feel better soon :hugs:
:hug: Trish! hope u get better soon!! im so glad i havent got that yet.. :S
Had a much better night lastnight wooot! ash went down about 8 and didnt hear a peep till 4am had a feed and back to sleep till 6am and then all the wind started coming, but geees wat a difference to all my other nights,. His poos are starting to become more normal too! yay, this medicine could really be helping.. :pray:
Ash's Dad messaged me yesterday with a big sorry sorry sorry sms! wants to see ash this week, didnt kick in that its fathers day on sunday so who knows when we'll catch up but now i need to see how truthful hes being about this and if he really wants to start stepping up or just doesnt want to pay mantainance.... hmmmm massive doing my head over happening here... :wall: I could give him one shot at it, at least while Ash is little and wont remember, and if he does one thing to mess him around hes outta here!
Well Ash needs breaky - he is finally eating heaps now and im getting really into this solids thing :) much more confident now..
Have a great day
OOOooohhh I pick up the pixi photos tomorrow... YAY!!
Aww Trish I know how you feel.. I had mastitis the other week :hug: blurdy men!! next time he is sick tell him if he is still sick tomorrow you might care ;) I hope the kids go easy on you today...
Good night here and I went to bed late.. I am addicted to sex and city. I never liked the show when it was current but now I am watching all the reruns I love it.. I think maybe my sense of humoour has changed and I know *get* the show..
Trish - Hugs sweets. I hope you get better soon. Sara and her cousin have just had that virus. It has taken both kids ages to get better.
Nic - I did not follow sandc either but I probably would whatch it now.
Buzzie - Can you get some advice on how to deal with Ash's dad? It would be awfully confusing for a child to have a parent in and out of their lives. I am not telling you what to do but imo I would be making it very clear that he can't just walk on it whenever he wants to and then go again..iykwim Some ground rules would have to be set. Goodluck hon, it must be so stressful
Lori - Thanks for the recipe.
Loren was up and down with teething issues and and stuffed up nose..When is the snot going to end?????? Best go and get on my treadmil
Haven't seen Morgan, Jus, Alicia, Tinsel, Teena or Haroula lately..If you are lurking hi sorry if I missed anyone
Olivia is driving me nuts!! :lol: She won't stay in this room hehe.. I need to Olivia proof the rest of my house now...
I just gave her 1/4 weetbix mixed with her cereal and a drop of milk.. I am pretty sure I started giving the boys full cream milk in thier brekky at this age so we shall see how she tolerates it :)
She is brewing a nice nappy for me at the moment yay :lol:
Bekz - yes that is very true, my dad messed me up big time and still today after 23 yrs of it i still have my moments, after getting the sms i talked to mum about it, she is absolutely fantastic with helping me through this as she went to heaven and earth to protect us when our dad left, i admit i did cry for a while thinking im doing all this to ash what my dad did to me.
So yes there will be very strict ground rules, and thats why i need to make some very good decisions now. i know when ash is old enough he will ask about his dad one day so I can only guide him as gently as i can. And maybe if his dad seriously steps up and does the right thing, theres a potential to have a family.. and when he saw ash last time (when he was 6 months i think) he said he wants marraige and all the family stuff, hes just been a d!ck about doing it when 'he' is ready and ready to except he has to grow up. So who knows, one step at a time i guess and we'll see how this visit goes. Hes not a bad person - Just a really stupid idiot! LOL
Buzzie - I am sure Ash will be fine. He has a lot of family around him and one of the best mums:)
Hi All,
Well we are back fom our trip and it was fantastic! It was so nice to get away for a bit and relax (yes we did get to relax). Olivia was an angel for the whole trip :D; she slept in the car (we didn't have to stop once for tears), charmed everyone she met and SLEPT through the night!!!!! However last night on the first night back home she woke at 4am :( so not sure what is going on there, I think maybe she was just so worn out by the end of the day while we were away that she had to sleep through to catch up.
Oh and I saw two whales with calves in Warrnambool so that totally made my holiday.
Also the big news is that she started crawling properly 4 days ago!!! She is still kind of slow but is now into everything! :baby: I can't believe my little baby is getting so big.
Ahhh what a totally totally crap night here. I am falling apart at the seams. Ty was awake every hour, not wanting to feed, just screaming. I don't know why. Teeth? Belly ache? Who knows. I don't know how much longer I can cope with this. He has never slept for longer than 6 hours in his whole life. At the moment I'm lucky to get two hours in a stretch at night. I just can't do it any longer.
Lauren- I'm sure you will make the right desicion about what is best for Ash. It must be tough for you :hug:
Alicia- Glad you had a good holiday :) Whales with calves would have been awesome to see.
Thank God I have mum's group today or I don't know what I'd do.
Alicia: Great to see you back.. Glad you had a great holiday!
Lori: :hug: bad nights just suck....
Olivia is driving me insane.. cry cry cry.. is so tired but won't go to sleep without a fight.. refuses booby beats me whats wrong.. she is laying across my lap screaming her head off..
Thanks everyone :) We are going out the dinner tomorrow night so well see how it goes. He kept apologising all today too and saying he wasnt himself this past yr and hates who he was.. blahblah,.. Time to look forward i guess rather keep living in the past, lets see if he can pull it off.
Alicia - Yay on the crawling.. all these little bubba hehe cant believe the next step is walking~!!! AAHHHHH :wall:
HI Girls!
I have been out of the loop for some time know so I have done a quick read through the posts and it seems like lots of growing and changing happening.
I was wondering if anyone else is having trouble with their bub waking at 3-4am in the morning and wanting to party. I mean really wide awake!!! This has been going on for a few weeks now, maybe four out of the seven nights.
Any hints would be greatly appreciated?????
Had a real blaaah day here.. but tomorrow is a new day.. fingers crossed Olivia won't be such a cow tomorrow.. Simon is home so I won't have to deal with it alone though.. and he wants to go camping.. 6 kids 2 adults (niece and nephew here for the weekend) Not my idea of fun right now..
Kts: Olivia has done that and I used to try fight with her to get her to go back to sleep.. In the end I gave up.. I fed her then stayed up for about half hour to hour and watched tv.. So instead of wanting to start the day at that time she would tire after half an hour or so.... oh she has grown out of it now.. thank goodness cus its super tiring...

Maya ( 10th dec ) has 12 teeth and hasnt slepted over night yet shes reasonable good goes down at 6:30pm awake at 10pm i dont feed her she has a little talk to her self 5 mins maybe then goes back to sleep , does this again at 12am and 3 am but wakes around 430am and just screams . so i get her up and we have a feed ( breast ) she goes back to sleep in my arms , but the minute i got to put her back in to her cot she wakes and just screams , and screams and screams . so that ends me in giving in and bringing her back in to bed with me as i just want to get back to bed . and a small feed a minute or so and shes out again . and wakes up and the day begins at 7am .
i would like some suggestions about her 430am issues . I have tried feeding her when she wakes earlier , she has a radio going all night softly and often a vapouriser . when she wakes her bunny plays a lullaby . i have tried putting her in a cot in my room from 630 pm , but i find when she is in with me she doesnt go into deep sleep very restless often waking and this is happening from 430ish to 7 am she''s sleeping lite and wakes easily ( & I'm not getting much sleep ) . she refuses to sleep during the day at all no matter what i try .
My health nurse has had a go at me for feeding her over night at all . She is a Guzzler and would have food all day if i let her , is great with solids - mostly finger foods . oh and we failed sleep school at 4 months , but she is alot better now ( since around 5 months ) than she was then .
i have to do somthing about this as im a single mother there is no one else to sit and rock her . and im having to return to work very soon .
she has never had a dummy and refused to be wrapped from day one .
id apprechiate your comments thanks
Maya has 12 teeth! Wow. We are waiting for the first one but we keep happily blaming teeth on all her grizzles....we are just waiting for one to pop through.
I feed Monique during the night and to be honest I forget the times overnight as I am so darn tired. I end up putting her in bed with me too (her cot and queen bed are in the same room. Hubby has made the move to the other room but I am yet to go). The last few nights when she wakes she just wants to be cuddled back to sleep which is getting tiring because if she isn't in a deep sleep when I put her down she howls until I pick her up again.
I don't have any suggestions for you sorry as we are up as well. I am going to try and put Monique in a routine of 8pm bedtime and 8am waketime without feeding overnight (although if she wakes for a feed before midnight I will give her one). I might have to move in with hubby too because maybe I am keeping her awake by being in the same bed as you say. I hope you get some helpful suggestions soon.
My body clock is naughty and I don't get to bed till late so no wonder I can't function in the mornings.
Buzzie, I hope dinner goes well.
Am scrolling through to post personals but really must get to bed. Nighty night.
Hi all,
I have no sleep suggestions for anyone, sorry. We are doing it tough as well.
But I was in bed last night by 8pm. And Ty slept for two lots of 4 hours woot!!!!! So I feel much better than i did yesterday.
Lauren- Good luck with dinner tonight.
Nic- Camping with six kids wtf??? You are a braver woman than I.
Dh is going away on Monday for six days. he asked us to come but I just couldn't get my head around all the stuff we would need to take- portacot, pram, bags of toys... list goes on. So I am being single mum for a week. Oh dear. Wish me luck.
Ty is soooo on bthe move. Can't keep him still for five seconds. Although we have Sesame St on at the moment and that is keeping him a little bit occupied.
