Nai- that is great about J sleeping last night in her cradle, hope the screaming has stopped for you.
Holly- for you and little Leon. That must have been so scary for you. I hope that it doesn't happen again. That is great that feeding is getting better. The rate I am going with photos, Ashlyn will end up having 10 albums before she turns one!!
Jols- They seriously dont think sometimes. I hope that he makes it up to you today. DP was better this morning I actually woke up to him bringing me a nice cup of tea. How did millie sleep last night? did you get a new avvy? i love it.
Ellie- i love your avvy. you look beautiful
Tarkine- you are doing a good job. stay positive and that is great that you got to mums and bubs group.
OP- the feeding/screaming combo doesnt sound fun! remember what Det said...its just a phase.
Laura- good to hear that you dont have mastitis
..............okay girls I started writing this post at 10:39am and it is now 6:03pm and thought I should come back and finish it!...............
Where does the time go....
On a good note for me today;
We had the MCHN come this morning and Ashlyn is now 3.91Kg, she was 3.65Kg when she was born so in 10 days she has put on 260grams!!!! I swear its all those feeding frenzies that she has!
We had our best night so far in regards to sleep. She fed at 8:30pm, 12pm, 3:45pm and 6:45pm then we had a lovely sleep together until 9am.
I have had MIL over today showing me photos of DP when he was a bub and his baby book and she watched Ashlyn while I quickly ducked up to centrelink to get a rent assistance form. It seems we qualify for a little something there!
Haven't got hammock yet, borrowing one off a friend altho we have been having better nights (except when nose plays up!)
My hug a bub arrived today! Bloody hell tho you need a degree to put it on, had to watch the dvd a few times and pause each step. So cute tho. Em was tired so popped her in and she shut her eyes and went straight off to sleep, recommend it girls!
Ali- yay on Ashlyn's weight gain, thats great too bout the rent assistance, hopefully will make finances little easier.
AJP- We usually have the same prob, good sleep in morn unsettled in arvo (this is why I told Df no boys night til after Ash is in bed). We use the dummy mainly and the bouncer, so while she is sucking away I rock it with my foot. Some days will get her into deep sleep other days as soon as dummy falls out crying and we have to start all over. Otherwise cuddles but bit hard when trying to get dinner and Ash bedtime things done.
shell DH got her to sleep tonight by popping in the dummy was a little annoyed with him as im not keen on using it all the time.
glad the hugabub worked!!!
millie had her MCHN ck today shes now 4.61kg up 500g in 2 weeks, 54.7 cm and head 37.1
Finally managed to get Ash down. We just had the last 4.5hours of feeding, settling, re-settling,feeding, settling! Arrrrhhh My nipples are sore. Now I might have a chance to go and have some dinner and maybe a bath. She better sleep well tonight to make it up to me.
Sorry thats all from me...buggered now. Hope you all ahve a good night sleep.
I'm beginning to get really worried that DS hasn't had a weight check for two weeks now - still no news from the MCHN - I'm going to ring them tomorrow and find out when someone will ring me to come around - or else offer to go around there again. I started to bleed again today after carrying the baby and capsule yesterday - really OVER the medical profession at the moment.
Sorry no personals, DS was very clingy again today - just put him down and hoping he will sleep for more than 20 minutes.
for you and little Leon. That must have been so scary for you. I hope that it doesn't happen again. That is great that feeding is getting better. The rate I am going with photos, Ashlyn will end up having 10 albums before she turns one!!
