Ooh.. thanks for the link Nic. Gosh I'm lazy LOL.
Trish - sooooooo hear you on having a noisy bub and being up frequently at night. I almost think I need to put Kayla in her own room.. but we don't have a spare room! LOL. Mum said put her cot in the loungeroom heheh... but nah.. I'll stick it out
Poor Kayla struggles with wind at night. Why only at night tho?? argh. She moans and groans and strains and pushes, then she gets upset. And almost every time I pick her up she burps. Usually at around the 5am feed, she finally gets popping and also does a poo, and then she sleeps soundly for about 4 hours... but of course Tallon gets up during that sleep, so I can't make the most of it
DH has stayed home 'sick' today. I'm pretty sure it's just lack of sleep making him feel seedy. Well, if he thinks he can stay in bed all day he's got another thing coming. I've gotta do groceries today, and well.. I'm not taking both kids now! hehehe.
Trish - my GP rang to see how we were going.. I was surprised too. I think it was coz she got all the correspondence from us coming home from hospital and stuff. I didn't have any questions or worries, but it was nice of her to call. I did book in the appointment for Kayla's first lot of needles tho, that'll be in January.
Does anyone know much about correcting the age of a prem? I asked about the needles, and we go by her actual birth date.. but developmentally we go by her corrected age. So she may not smile for another 6 weeks yet (altho I reckon we're pretty close sometimes) And the paed yesterday said that we exclusively breastfeed to 6months corrected.. so she'll be nearly 8 months old when I start solids. It's all a bit confusing.. can anyone think of anything else affected by this age correction?
Take care girls.. gonna wake DH up to watch Tallon while I shower. Mwahaha. (I'll teach him to chuck sickies!)
