Jacki, Esme, Karli
- lakshman has had days like that too, when he doesnt sleep during the day.
But his routine is mostly sleeping all day and then being wide awake from 5, 6pm till night and then he has trouble sleeping. he sleeps so much during the day that his feeding time sometimes stretches out from 3 hrs to 3.5 to 4hrs. and then he has his feed at 8ish 9ish at night and he sleeps till 2,3am. I;ve been trying to get him to have his feed at 10.30 or so so that he sleeps till 4. but because of his day time habit, it's all over the place at the mo.
I dont want to wake him up to feed cos he will fall asleep halfway, and rather do it by demand. plus, if i have a chance to have a nap, i keep thinking he's going to wake up soon and he doesnt, and im not rested.
I might go see the nurse at the ECC to see what to do or just let him be.

They keep changing their sleeping habits just to confuse the hell out of us dont they??

Karli - hope Jake is all better now.
I've bought a few things on ebay. I think being stuck at home at the mo, ebay is my escapism... not good!!
I'll try to go to the DFO over the long weekend, plus Pumpkin Patch is having a sale too.

Hi Girls, Summer is really windy and unsettled at the moment she loves her cuddles and i love them too luckily but hard to get things done.

Prama i went to pumpkin patch the other day and spent $42 and saved $58, there wasn't too much left but got a few cute things though.

Are some of you dealing with lots of wind with your bubs too? I thought it must have been something i have been eating but not too sure. Has anyone tried infacol or gripe water? I tried it with the other girls and it didn't do much just wondering if maybe it's better than it was years ago.

Hi All,

re: wind, we are using infant's friend....mostly because my Mum is staying (from Singapore) and she is convinced that every cry or noise Zoe makes is because she has wind! who know's....i haven't even had a chance to try to figure out her cries cos Mum jumps in with the infants friend. IF she does have wind, then the infants friend seems to help, cos she settles quite well. I will do some tests myself after mum leaves i suppose!!!

My mastitis never eventuated thank God! a feeding, massaging,expressing regime resolved the problem before if went that far. It was seriously painful though, i hope i never actually end up with full blown mastitis!

good work girls...you all sound like you are doing great!
