aww Kim thats so good that u guys can catch up! I wish some of u girls were closer... Would have so much fun!
Well after having a pretty good day with Harley yesterday, he didn't go so well today, he hasn't slept much, and his bottles went back to 2 - 3 hours... he is asleep at the moment and fingers crossed he is down for the night, maybe wake up around 9-10 for a bottle then give me a good 6 hours...do u think I'm asking to much hehehe :P
My eyes are sore and the screen is getting blury again... and I can't focus to well...thinking I'm gonna have my eyes tested again and prob have my glasses changed... fun fun!
Salsa: I never really have the energy to DTD but Rob just is so keen for it, he kinda gets me in the mood :P so we are back to the old days lol...somehow manage to get it in when the kids are asleep lol. I still really wanna go a 3rd time, but thinking I'll have my tubes tied if I do, as I know i'm pretty fertile and I think 3 would def be enough!!
Puppies: U may change ur mind in a couple of years about kids... but for now I'm sure u and hubby are very happy! I know u have gone thru a stressful month and a bit! Hopefully things are all good from now!
PLC: April sounds so healthy and cute!! Ur doing real well with her!!
Big hellos to everyone else and ur beautiful babies!! Can't believe how fast 6 weeks has gone, I knew it would once he was born... wish it would slow down as well! Although am looking forward to more smiles and can't wait for the giggles to start!!
Well I better go see wat my lil monster is up to! Harley is sound asleep! Yay!
Deb thanks, it has been a rough start for us but I am really starting to enjoy it at last. Although JD was not very settled today, he just finds it hard to get t sleep sometimes. I think he is a bit constipated. If he has trouble passing a poo again tomorrow I will try giving him some cool boiled water before I feed him.
Its funny I am sure that Dh thinks I am exagerating when I say JD has been a good boy like yesterday, cause every time he is home JD plays up. It was fun playing with him tonight though. He had some nappy off time and we kissed and cuddled and played with him so we got a few more smiles and he even tried to giggle again. He is asleep now but it took a while though probably cause I over stimulated him, but I am so desperate for some interaction from him.
I have to say it honestly took me a while to fall in love with him but I am head over heels now! I cant get enough of him, I just want to kiss and smell him all the time. I hate being apart from him and I don't like leaving him with anyone. I dream about him almost every night too. Do you think they are aware of how much we love them at this age? I hope so.
Anyway, my SIL and I are going to babies galore to get his feet and hand moulds done in the morning, I just hope he is settled but I will take a bottle of milk with me just in case. It will be my first shop visit with him. We are a bit behind in the outings mainly because of the rough start we had with him. But the medicine is really helping his reflux now and I am getting more confident. Although I am not looking forward to him getting his vaccinations next week. I will probably cry. I am thinking of giving him a bottle when he gets them so that he is concentrating on something else. What do you experienced mums do when it comes to vaccination time? Any advice for us first timers?
Amanda with my girls ive always either given them a dummy (Chelsea) or the second all 3 needles have been done cuddles and bum patting (Jasmine). I also make DH take the kids for needles now..i hate how my surgery does them and i feel slack....LOL
Kim do they give the needles in the arm, bum or leg? and how many are there for the 2 month vaccination? What kind of side effects can you expect?
Jo why do you choose not to vaccinate, or is that too personal?
I am in two minds about this dummy situation with JD. I know that we started using one in hospital from advice from a midwife, as it soothes babies with reflux. But it seems that between 4 and 4.30am every morning he starts crying for it. Then of course your up and down from then giving it back to him when he drops it. But he doesn't really wake up for his feed until 7am (well that is what I am trying to teach him to get used to anyway). We tried last night ignoring him when he asked for it but he just kept going with the emotional cry. But then again he was very overtired as he did not sleep well again yesterday. Any ideas?
Well I had a pretty good night until Harley woke at 5am and just fussed at the bottle, then took ages to wind, had a dirty nappy, and just wasn't happy cos he was holding wind in, so didn't get back down I started stressing a bit so said to Rob to take over... which I thought was fair enough considering I wake to every feed and he just lies there...
Jo ur research is very interesting... I would love to not give Harley the needles, but I guess I dunno wat I would do if he got one of the viruses or dieseases... but yeh I hate needle time and Kim u poor thing having to watch ur kids go thru that...I've been able to have Charlotte held each time as the nurse does it... but this time I think I'll have Rob holding Harley.
Kirsten, hope u and Ryley are better real soon, its no fun being sick...think I need to get the fess nose drops for Harley as he has a constant sniffle, ever since being back from Camping...
Well hopefully we have a good day today... hopefully getting my b'day pressie from Rob lol... he didn't get it in time for my b'day!
Just a quick note to let know that we've been flat out getting things done around the house. Powerpoints and TV points in, furniture moved around. Dishwasher FINALLY in the kitchen and painter booked to paint the living areas & kitchen in 2 weeks!
Had Judd's weigh and measure Thursday. He's now a whopping 5.18kg. Was 2.77kg at birth! He's head is average and his length is slighly under average, but all in all he's doing well. MHN noticed his very muccusy, and I said that I've been having to fess him a lot lately. he then threw up his bottle, and she said that was muccusy as well, and that would make him throw up more.
Getting his shots this Weds, so will ask GP then. My carpal tunnel test came back normal, so I don't have that. So will ask GP next week what else could be causing my pins and needles symptoms.
Puppies, don't worry about the sex thing. We have 3 and we're doing it more now that we have for ages, and my DH is horny as hell and has never strayed. He doesn't have the time with 3 kids to run around after!! I think it's got something to do with the fact that I had my tubes tied and so we feel really free, as we used to use condoms and we hated them, so that put us off.
Catching up with Kim and the kids was hillarious! the girls are gorgeous and had these lovely dresses on but they kept falling over in them because they were a bit long! Then Judd wouldn't settle in his cot, and everytime I went into his room I had a little gathering of little people following me everywhere around the house! Zach was great. I can't believe how settled he is. Must be the genes! Hope to do this regularly so we can see the kids growing up.
Judd had another bad day today. Just don't know what's wrong sometimes, but thankfully it was on a weekend, so I get lot's of help. We bought a plasma yesterday, my DH is in heaven now. It's great, but not really a turn on for me as it is for him, iykwim!!
