    morning ladies!
    :yeahthat: i agree BB is addicive!

    sterla & moose: OMG lucky. daz has his last feed at 12:30-1am and is up agian by 4:30-5! but sleeps agian unill 7:30/8! as for there is no right way or wrong i felt horrable FOR the bub! i know its not my way but hearing "i dont pick him up untill i see tears" made me want to ! ... maybe A/F is on her way back? maybe thats why im so emotional! haha...(scary thing is i'd be due now if i hadn't have gotten UTD lol)

    AFM: yesterday i went to my old work in a shopping center about 20mins from my place and spent from 12noon untill 4:30pm there...on my own with daz! i had intended to leave around 2 but daz was sound alseep and i thought i'd use the K-dud bonus and "STIMULATE THIS ECCONMY" which ended in daz getting 2 new pairs of pants two shirts, a singlet and a rattle...Ohh and some sun blocker outters for the car. had a bit of an moment mind you a girl i worked with is getting married next month! because chinese traditoin says get married ASAP! but it was also a moment becuase she lost her mum last month which was sad. but she seems ok. she told he she's thinkin of kids and asked me to discribe the pain of labour; which im still at a loss to explain!
    Any whoo i better go and eat something before daz wakes up!
    hope every one is having a lovely day!

    I too and so, so addicted to BB! I must log on everyday!

    Blip: Daz's sleep pattern sounds good - kind of like what Oliver was doing in the early days. I bet he's on the way to sleeping through! That does sound pretty harsh to me too - not picking a bub up till there's tears .
    Go D with stimulating the economy! We've yet to receive our K-Rudd money - but ours will most likely be spent on paint or carpet for our house.

    AFM: Well, I put Oliver down for a nap in his cot (instead of his bassinet which he's used full time since birth), and he's fast asleep! He's been sleeping for 20 minutes so far, and doesn't look like waking any time soon! I'm so glad he's having a good sleep in it, cause he's really not going to fit in his bassinet much longer.
    Oh, and he's getting so good with his tummy time! He can lift his head up pretty high, and for longer and longer each time. I gave him a rattle yesterday, which he held onto and was shaking around heaps (before sucking on it of course) - and me, being a big mama sook started getting all teary at how proud I was of him!

    I'm off to the docs this afternoon for my pap - fun...

    Hope everyone is well.

    Hey Girls
    Oh my goodness, Winter has been relentless today... skipped her normal morning sleep, has napped for like 20 mins, finally have her down now, so fingers crossed I can get this post finished because I have a bunch of stuff I want to say, and I always find I forget to say a bunch of things I was meaning to, every single time I post.
    Jeez where to start?!

    Sterla- I tried to add you to my msn through your little icon but it didnt work, so maybe if you send me a message on msn and i can add you that way?? Try not to stress about your milk... stoopid nurse! why would sheilds make a difference? just from the stimulation? would massaging your boob while feeding make a difference? as you can tell im a pro on these issues
    Well done with the cot transfer!

    Blip- That little baby at your MG must be like a goldfish-just eat and eat till sick. 250ml is huge, poor bub. Not sure who it is on BB but there quote is something like "someone is always someone elses weirdo" so true...
    jeez im so scattered today another hard night I cant even think of what im doing atm...

    Moose- Are you close to getting your P's? Im finding it quite hard as the only person around to give me lessons is DP but we have noone to leave Winter with and there is NO WAY i want to drive with her in the car... So Ive just been paying for lessons, but at $50 a pop I dont want to get more than one a week, so its a long process...

    Ok warning too much info coming up.... DP and I DTD 2 nights ago and... it was good! I was still nervous but after a while got into it and
    OH CRAP! Winter just woke up!!!! DAMMIT lol Ill be back in a bit ARRRRGH LOL

    OK I'm back, who knows how long the peace will last so here we go...
    With DTD Im glad we got it over and done with(how romantic)Im still not in a big rush to do it again though... not that it wasnt good, it was nice to be close to DP but I think its just being so busy with Winter, as bad as it sounds it feels like.. oh i really dont know how to explain, so maybe ill stop dribbling :P

    So I was sitting with DP at the table last night and I said to him that I had something to tell him... it went something like this... "Dad Ive been thinking and Ive spoken to my baby buddies and they all agree with me - We are buying a new pram. Sorry you cant change my mind, ive even been looking on ebay." "Ok well I guess i cant say anything" "No, you cant. I love you" heheheh
    Hope everyone is having a great friday and has a great weekend

    Oh one last thing for now... DP now calls BB my "cult" cos ive become addicted so quick. I love it though, and chatting to you girls has really saved my sanity in these last couple of weeks. I was feeling so isolated at one point. Thank you all!

    Jords: LOL thats the way girl!!! I have a mountain buggy swift and although expensive, is AWESOME, its light and can fit through anything, supermarket aisle and still sporty enough to have a bit of rough terrain.
    As to getting close to my P's well...its on its way, I was doing really well before Xmas, took some prefessional lessons as DH and I were heading butts a lot but went from having a small Toyota Starlet to a Nissan Xtrail, so am a bit scared to drive around in the big one, on top of all the arguments it seems to cause between DH and I, but we will get there!! I think I know what you mean with DTD...I think I just see myself as a mum and not so much "a Lover" as such and that needs to change as DTD is part of a healthy marriage but I think its almost like an identity crisis where we are redefining who we are and that takes time too. Glad we can be there for your sanity, even if we are a cult

    Sterla: thats good that Oli is now sleeping in his cot part time, it will make easier to transition him as opposed to changing it big bang, *I might do that for Sammy and her snuggle bed as she is almost too tall for it now. Thats so cool about the rattle, Sammy doesn't seem that interested in rattles, she likes animals, in books and talks to her stuffed friends all the time, especially a moose we named Marvin, its hilarious to watch her with him. Enjoy the pap, its alwys SO nice, isn't it?

    Blip: Thats was a cool way to spend your stimulus, we are still waiting for ours but will go towards investments and getting a new sound system as well as paying for the Chrtistening party on the 12th of July. Thats sad about your friend that lost her mum right before she is getting married, I know I missed my parents when they couldn't see me walking down the aisle, its funny how some other cultures have got different traditions, I just hope she is happy. I also think that one can never truly explain the journey of giving birth to your child, its one of those moments where "you just had to be there!" Sounds like it was a good arvo. As for the sleep, well Sammy woke up at 12:30 and then again at 5am, not sure if that's got something to do with the spewing, she just seems a bit off. I'm sure it will all sorte itself out but I feel myself so blessed that I have a child that sleeps so well, I just hope it lasts!

    AFM: I had THE WEIRDEST morning walk ever. DH is not working til tonight so I asked him to come on my work out walk with me and Sam. We normally have our standard route but forthe last couple weeks, I;ve been meaning to start walking up this giant hill to pump up the work out a biut but been delaying it and I had a wicked neck and back pain last week so have not really been walking. Dh convinced to go up it today and he got up to the top before I did and started chatting with this lady, who turned out to be a psychic. She basically gave us a reading on the spot. Today is my mom's birthday and she passed 2 years ago on my birthday of all things. The first thing she asked was Sammy's birthday, which we gave her and she said she was feeling someone with curly brown hair, very skinny and pretty tall that is with her all the time. That is pretty much my mom to a 'T" ( note I am short and chubby, not tall and skinny) she proceeded to tell us that Sam is a Rainbow Child ( look it up on the net its interesting) and has an orange Aura which will lead her onto the golden path. She said Sammy was a very special child who will be a leader and will aim to serve people ( not being a servant but serve to make it a better place) She will be impatient as a child as she is very smart and will have a hard time understanding why others don't "get it" right away and will want to move along. She went on like this for a good half an hour and talked about my dad that has also passed and said that DH used to be a roman centurion in the past life. So, needlessto say , it was a FULL ON experience, I had a few tears and was left somewhat stunned by this whole ordeal. She also said my mom would flicker a light in the next couple days to let know she is there and that this lady is for real. Can't wait to see whether this will happen or not.

    Anyway, Bean is up, just thought I would share my weird morning with you ladies...Sammy is still chucking after almost every feed, I just feel her not being too well..call it mother;s instinct
    Mxx
