No swimming here yet either. It is something I have really wanted to do with Olivia oneweekend but just keep putting off; it is either too cold or she is sick or we have somthing else on. Hopefully on Sunday, when it is supposed to be 28 degrees, we will get to swim, however with the way her cold is going I'm not sure it would be a great idea. Gosh that was a ramble, sorry.
I ended up taking Olivia to the doctors today for a check-up. Her cough was much worse last night and we were up at 3am with her totally screaming the house down! It ended with DH sleeping on the couch and the little Miss in bed with me It means DH and bub got some nice sleep but not me - I just dont sleep as well when she is in with me, too worried about squishing her I think. Anyway she also suddenly got very red and swollen on her poor little bottom and girlie bits yesterday so I wanted that checked too. She is ok - we just have to put up with the cold til it goes and her poor little bottom is just totally irritated from all the acidy teething poos (Sorry TMI).
I hope everyone is well tonight and that the sleep fairies visit us all. Night
Alicia: I hope Olivia gets better soon.. I don't sleep well when my miss is in bed with me either.
Lauren: woops I got it wrong.. I remember now what Lochia is
LoriRae: I have been known to leave Olivia with SImon and sleep in the lounge. Sometimes when they won't stop in the middle of the night it can get so exsaperating.. (sp?)
Well I have probably missed some of you but Hi to all
Olivia actually slept all night. Wel from 9, she woke then but I think she was cold cus I forgot to put blankets on her. I went to bed at 10 and didn't wake till after 5.. I think I can't shake this bug because I am not getting good sleep.
Olivia is growing up to fast. she has taken to standing then letting go for a second or 2 then she realises she has let go. and she rarely falls on her bottom she lowers herself down.. I tell ya what though it doesn't matter how many kids you have it is still so exciting and sometimes we act like she is our first My mum is always saying, you do remember the boys did that or you have 3 boys too what are they up to I just love this age. developing so fast yet still a baby.
oh and cutest thing ever.. She woke from her nap yesterday and I went and lay on my bed with her for cuddles and she was crawling all over the bed and I said to her.. Hey wheres Mummy's cuddles? She stopped crawled back to me threw herself across me and actually gave me a cuddle.. I melted right there and then oh and she says mama pretty much all the time now.. and when she wants me she crawls around saying mama mama mama.. soo cute!!
and on that gushing note I shall say good morning and have a great day to all
Hi all,
Nic- That is tooooo cute with the mamama, wish Ty would do that. Love the cuddles too- Ty ended up half crawling over me last night then falling asleep, so I woke up with him laying across my chest
Alicia- again, hang on in there.
We had a big scare last night. I woke up at 1am. Ty was in bed next to me and not breathing.I had to shake him three times before he finally (after about thirty seconds) took a great big gasp of air and started breathing again. Needless to say, we're off to the gp today. It was so so scary. They are testing dh for sleep apneoa in a few weeks and I really think Ty might have the same thing. Thank god I woke up- I don't know if it was just by chance or if it was some mum's intuition kicking in, but it was so lucky I did.
Well I had a mini meetup with a few Sydney girls yesterday and it was lovely, I think a more contained venue might help next time but it was lovely in the park. Then we went to Aldi and saw all the toys they have for Christmas - wish the kds were not with me and I would have bought them then.
OMG Lori how scary. I bet you didn't sleep at all after that. I hope you get some answers.
Alicia - we have the bad cough here too. Monique and I sleep in the same bed and we kept waking each other up with the coughing although it's getting better. She has a middle ear infection as well but seems to be on the improve today. I hope Olivia gets better soon and you get some sleep.
Nic - how cute with the cuddles. I say to Monique 'where's mummies kisses' and she head buts me for a kiss on the head or I get the big open mouth slobbery kiss which is gross but so gorgeous.
MoM - well done Kieran. I get all teary when Monique does something new.
Hoody - thanks for the get well vibes. I think we might be on the other end now which is good. DH was home yesterday because he wasn't well so I hope we aren't going to get another round of something. I want the sickness to end.
Buzzie - really, no AF for you yet - wow.
Monique and I really need to get out of the house as we have been indoors while we are sick. I would love to take her to swimming lessons too and might look into that in a few months when it warms up. Do you just get those swim nappy things? Any brand that you recommend?
It means DH and bub got some nice sleep but not me - I just dont sleep as well when she is in with me, too worried about squishing her I think. Anyway she also suddenly got very red and swollen on her poor little bottom and girlie bits yesterday so I wanted that checked too.

oh and she says mama pretty much all the time now.. and when she wants me she crawls around saying mama mama mama.. soo cute!! 
again, hang on in there.
