Tyra got really bad conjunctivitis yesterday and woke up this morning with her eye practically fused together. So took her to the gp to get checked. Gave her eye drops and was going to get her to stay home from school but she desperately wanted to go so I let her in the end. She got there at 10:30 but better late than never I guess. Her eye is really red now but already stopped gooping so much.
Kobi has been a gem. She has periods where she is sleeping for a while..and then times where she is happy to sit quitely but wide awake. But she has not been crying very much or anything. Very content.
I was a good girl last night and didnt fall asleep in her bed with her. I put her down for the night (well ykwim) at 9 and then she was up at 1, 4 and then 7. Not too bad but could be better. I guess I have set myself back by being all over the place with her in and out of my bed at night.
As for the dummy thing...I cant get her to take it. I havent tried very hard but now and then if she is a bit upset or whatever I try to give her one to see if it will settle her. But she wont take it. Oh well...not such a bad thing.
Funny thing is though that she will suck my knuckle and her own fist..but not a dummy. Go figure!
Laura - What do I do when I b/f?? Well during the day I watch tv or look around on the net one handed. Usually watch tv though.
At night I just sit there. I sit bolt upright in bed and feed her sitting up. I make sure I turn the bathroom light on so I can see when changing etc and so that I don't fall asleep. A few times though I have gotten up and watched telly in the lounge. But I cant be bothered with that most nights.
Little Luxxe is only a wee bit behind Kobi in the weight stakes! She is 4.2 kgs now. God they grow fast.
I am so glad my little one isnt the only one to go through the witching hour. DH trains for footy 2 nights a week so that makes it hard as I have to cook in between cries or feeds or cuddles. Some nights I dont get to eat til he gets home. The nights where he comes straight home though are good. He will help from the minute he walks in the door. He dotes on his girls. I am lucky there. Sounds like we all have great partners though in that regard.
Ok better go. Tyra is begging me for a milo and making me go virtually insane. Kobi will want the other boob soon and I might have to think about what to do for dinner.
