Thanks Kim..Well okay at birth he had both his ah testicles and at all the checks from the midwives and MCHN and the 6 week check up the doctor could only find one :O I know its not major but I am a little concern and she said the other one could descend down..Poor little guy..I hope its there when I have him check at the 2 month appointment. I am getting his needles done on the 10th March and he be 8 weeks and 4 days..

Hmm.....so Kirsten its only the 6 week check up that this issue has come up...but have been there every other time? Ive not heard of them going back up once they have dropped (but as a mum of 2 girls and only new to boys im not sure at all). Im sure Ryley will be ok. If its not there at 2 month check, did the Dr say what will happen...maybe it will just come down in its own time.....im not sure there would be any problems down the track if it didnt??
Eeeekkk needles...im dreading them already....*calls to Craig*...he takes the kids not me!
Im meant to have my 6 week check up this week..but im sooo scared to go cos i know its pap time and they freak me out..but i should go..i have a huge list of issues i need to bring up :(
:hug: Kim..I got my pap on Thursday and I am not going to like it..I hope it drops too..And it was there all the times he been check as no one said anything to me about it. No she didn't say nothing so I hope his next appointment they will find it. So I hope mums who had boys can enlighten me..Good luck at your appointments..
I posted the reply 3 times as the site went funny. Lol.
Can you feel both testicles? I know i can for Zach....my MCHN showed me how to feel them (why i have no idea..LOL).
All the best for your pap on Thursday......horrid things...but i guess they are done for a good reason!
Yeh the site went funny on me before too and i thought i was going to have lots of posts get submitted like you did
Mmm..I have to have a look when I change him next..I might ask the MCHN to show me next time I see her. That reminds me I have to check the blue book for the next appointment I somehow forgotten. Lol. Yes they are and the good thing I don't have to have another for 2 years :D
I am just waiting for Ryley last feed and the poor little thing hasn't done a poo all day since yesterday and I gave him water and that usually helps and he has only been napping all day so fingers cross he might sleep after his last feed..
I so didn't know that I was going to have a pap test at my 6 week check up. You know that was the first and only time that my Obs had a look down there. Ah well at least I wasn't stressing about it before hand cause I didn't know.
Oh it looks like JD finally slept through the night. I am pretty sure DH fed him right on midnight and he is still asleep now, although I can hear him grizzle every now and then. I am going to get him up at 7am for his fed. Its funny though, I kept looking at the monitor and the clock thinking wow I wonder if this thing is working or not. Gosh I am so happy about that. Even if its only a once a week thing I am happy that he is learning. He has been hard to settle this last couple of days though. But once he is asleep he is out to it for a good few hours. My mum and I sat out on the grass and drank a glass of wine yesterday afternoon while he slept in the pram with us. It was nice to have some fresh air.
Hi ladies
Sounds like everyone is doing well. Amanda great JD is getting easier for you to settle.
Hope your appt goes well today Kirsten.
Hi Kim...piccies look great on facebook
Hello everyone else.
Well back at uni yesterday and it went so well. Darren had such a lovely day with Sammy and Ruby. I left two bottles of expressed milk and was able to come home at lunchtime. She was just a dream and it was so lovely to see Darren do so well! He thoroughly enjoyed it...makes it so much easier to relax and concentrate on studying knowing that darling Ruby is perfectly content. Ive never been away from my babies this young ever!
Ruby is doing lots of smiles now. Sammy Ruby and I have a bath together every night and she just adores it. She kicks her legs and as soon as I put her on her tummy she starts kicking wildly, then being tired out will often snuggle in, feed and start to doze (in the bath!) funny girl. Her hair is growing so much! Everyone comments on how much hair she has! Its so sweet to be able to put the little bows in it!
Well enough about me..we are off to go shopping. Hope its a lovely day for you all
Jo
Man i cant believe Zach is now 6 weeks old....time really needs to slow down! He is doing smiles now and then, but not to often.
How cute that you can put bows in ruby's hair Jo. I cant even do much with Jasmines hair yet and she is 16 months old now! Thanks for looking at the kids pics on FB :)
Amanda JD sounds like he is going great guns. Keep up the good work.
Looking forward to catching up with Tash and her gorgeous boys tomorrow!
Not much to report here...ment to have my 6 week check up today..but meh...can wait til im ready.
QU: What size clothes is bubs wearing now?
Zach goes between 0000 and 000 depending on what it is. 2 piece outfits are 0000 and still swim on him...and some 1 piece 0000 are still big.....but others in 000 fit nicely although a bit big as well.
I took JD for a walk this morning and bumped into a friend that I have made down the road. She has a 9mth old boy. Anyway JD woke up and I took him out of the pram and just let him sit on my knee and he loved it. He started smiling and laughing at me and my friend as we were talking. It was wonderful! It made me feel all warm and fuzzy, it was great to see him happy. I am really starting to enjoy being a mum now and hope we get more interaction with him from now on. Certainly helps when he is crying and difficult. You can just think of the nice moments and know that all is ok.
He is the same Kim, some 0000 are too small now and some are took loose. I did have to put him in 00 wondersuits cause they were too short for his long legs, but they were perfect for his arms. I would like to go shopping and buy him some more nice outfits soon actually. I have been given so many lovely clothes but most of them he will have to grow into so he has not got a lot that fits him right now. Now that he is beginning to settle a lot easier I would like to attempt to take him shopping, will see how he goes next week.
Are we suppose to get a pap smear done?
DS has grown so big! He is 5500g, wearing 000 (3-6mth). Some of those I wonder how long he will be in them for? :lol:
Salsa not everyone needs to have a pap done...i need one as im over due for mine. Was ment to be May last year but the hospital said to wait til after bub was born to get it done.
I find it so sad that Zach has so many gorgeous clothes he will never wear...or wear limited times. Simply because of the weather changes and him growing so fast. I even put him to bed wearing good clothes just so i know he has worn them..LOL
I had a smear done the month that I concieved...so I guess perhaps I dont need one for a while?
Oh, I think you should sleep him in his good clothes - I have had a few times where I put the nice stuff aside (saving it for what ?? :rolleyes:) and then think I should dress him in it cause tomorrow it might not fit anymore.
With all the hot weather he did not get to wear some of his newborn things :(
Paps are due every 2 years....so more then likely Salsa you will need to get one done next year.
Dress your little man in good clothes.....why not...get some wear out of them....no one will see them, but who cares. I also have a habit of taking a picture in every outfit he wears...so if its one he hasnt worn before *snap* picture taken...i know..im a dag! LOL
Awww Kim I try to do the same getting pics of Harley in new outfits...but been a bit slack lately :redface:
Thats cute that u dress him in good stuff, and I must say from ur pics on FB they are beautiful clothes!!
Harley is pretty much in 000 but still fits some 0000 especially if they are top and pants, but body suits not so much only cos of his length but!
Was sad putting away his 0000 the other night, and really makes me want one more... not now of course but sometime in the next couple of years...call me crazy but I know some of u mums on here have coped with 3 or more! But of course still have to talk to Rob about it... I know he isn't keen, but maybe we can sort something out...any of u girls who have had more then one whos hubby/partner didn't want anymore? My dad always said to mum only 2 and they ended up with 4 of us hehe!!
I managed to get Harley to sleep 6 hours last night, 9.30 till 2.30!! Then woke just before 6 :) so very happy, hope he keeps it up
Deb we are undecided. I have liked the idea of 3 for quite a long time and never have wanted to have just 2, but I cannot decide right now. I read on another thread (about why did u stop at 2?) someone suggested you wait till your youngest is 12mths till you decide if you wanna go again.
I dunno, DH is same as me. He sort of does, sort of dosent. If we had another I thought I`d like that within the next 2 years, but tbh, I think it would have to be the 2nd half or next year, I dont know how I would cope with a 3rd while #2 is still a baby. I :clap: those of you who have and do and will... :D
Good im glad im not the only crazy one that does the pic taking Deb...LOL
Any more kids for us.....i wish.....Craig said no while i was pregnant....now he says yes....was in 6 months...now he says 2-3 years time....so who knows...might happen..might not :(
