Oops no idea how 3 posts of the same message happened. Dont know what to do about it either.
Addy is asleep,again, she must be having her catch up sleep day. Oh and she slept through last nigt for the first time. Didnt wake for a feed. I did though, my bbs were leaking everywhere and so engorged. It sucks that she can sleep through but I cant!! What has others done about this?
yes, the overnight engorement! it will pass hun..my b's have come use to it now. but i made the mistake of drinking a chocolate drink with malt and honey in it. My bb's are all nice and perky atm.
Jess- yep I have a tv boy here to...ah love the 'babysitter' sometimes. Stops him from crying so much. God, Imight text kate later...been so slack lately.
there are so many new faces in here - its friggen fantastic!
Jo- how you going of your next of the woods woman?
Hello everyone!!!!!!
ok im going for a shower...MY GOD its 2pm and im still in my pj's (first time in months)
Hi everyone!
Well, have finally worked out why Amy is so grizzly this week. She just gets really tired really quickly! I think it's cos she's so interested in everything now that she gets overstimulated. So have been putting her down as soon as she gets grizzly and after a bit of crying she crashes. Am really wanting to start putting her to bed without wrapping but not sure whether it will work. She sleeps in her carseat just fine though so maybe it will.....who knows!?
Oh my god, there have been so many posts. Not sure I can keep up....
Maz - nice one on pj's at 2pm! I haven't done that for a while either. Although I had my fair share of days like that in the first 8 weeks! So glad everything is going well with the physio xx
Loren - Amy is a mega escape artist too when it comes to her wraps. I'd love to not wrap her. Need to buy those sleeping bags and see if that works for winter.....
bbwish - DH was exactly the same. I had to chat to him about it the other day. I think it's because they aren't getting much back from bub that they would rather do something else. Plus DH said that because he knows I'm capable enough, he doesn't feel like he has to help me. I said that I want him to do more with us cos I want Amy to get used to him doing things too. As soon as we had that chat and he has been holding Amy more etc she smiles at him a lot more and is genuinely happy to see him. I guess guys just don't know their place with bubs until they can start playing with them.........
Jess - glad jaylen was ok after his needles. 8 weeks!! It goes fast doesn't it!?
Lunesoleil - i don't wake Amy for feeds anymore. I did that for the first 8 weeks and got so over it. She tells me when she's hungry now and we're both happier for it....I totally know what it feels like to stress about weight gain. I've only just stopped in the past two weeks.
oh dear, amy's whnging again.....sorry to miss all u other ladies. i'm thinking of u all....will b back later xxxxx
Nik - Mateauz hasnt been wrapped since he was 3 weeks old. I didnt even bother doing it in hospital cause he has drips ect hanging off him. I just tuck him into his cot with the sheet and a minkee blanket up enough to keep him warm. He rolls on his side to so I tuck him in tight. I found him half way up the cot the other morning...wiggled his bum that much. Just go with the flow babe. Yourve done a wonderful job in recognising that Amy is getting tired. The sleeping bags are a great idea to...Im spewing cause I just got rid of all of Vy's old ones (they were pink)...I could have passed them onto you.
Little man is back asleep - he must be having a growth spurt. Sadly he's 12 1/2 weeks...it makes me so sad but he is still so little. He is still wearing 000. I bought a cow print all in one from Target in size 000 and I have to roll the sleeves up.
ok off to try and tackle the biggest pile of washing! BLAH
Hi ladies!!
I have been AWOL as we've moved & before we moved Scarlett was having a terrible time but we're back & better than ever, lol, sounds like an ad for some aging rockers or something!!
Anywho, we're in Melbourne & any of you that live here can agree with me that the weather has been CRAZY!!
Scarlett has gotten sooooooo much better with feeding and sleeping just in the last 2 weeks, she just woke up happy one day, not a moment too soon!!
There is no way in hell I'll be able to catch up with everyone so I'm starting again, from NOW lol.
Hope everyone & their bubs are doing great!
xoxox
Oh my god, I just did a big post and lost it! Damn it!!!! Will try to remember what I typed.....
Maz - Amy is still in 000's too and her and Mateauz are only 1 day apart. I was so excited about her growing into her 000's. Please don't be sad. Our bubs are just meant to be little. Mateauz is doing so well and only because you are such a wonderful mum. I don't know how you do it. I am in awe of you, seriously.
Queen - welcome back! So glad to hear Scarlett is going better and I hope the move went well.
Well, better get going seeing as I've spent way too much time on here already typing my last post damn it. Have a great night ladies xxxxx Nik and Amy zzzz
QB - hi ya chickie - hope the move went really well. Are you up my neck of the woods or Melbourne central? Fantastic to hear that Scarlett is so happy matie.
Nik - pmsl, I felt liek throwing a party for AMat when he got into his ooo's aswell. He has been given so many 00 clothes that im not going to have to buy him a thing.
Hello everyone..were are you all? this use to be the quickest thread. I have showered honestly I dont smell anymore.
Little man has slept from 10 until 7am the last 2 mornings so ive been wkaing with a headache due to having to much sleep. pmsl cant win can we
Hi everyone!
I was the same with the 000 size too.. because we were given sooo many cute outfits in that size but all summery and she still doesnt fit some of them but it's too cold for most of them now: several things she didnt even put on once :( Oh well, just have to have another girl a bit earlier in the season hehehe.
Maz, I am freaked out how many things we do the same matey!!! I bought that target outfit too but got the two piece with the hood. I thought it was cow print till I noticed the paw prints on the feet: I think its meant to be dalmation. I keep saving it for when she will be seen in it but I am going to just use it now... same as your nappy cover, I cant stop patting it!!!
Attention anyone who wants a nice nappy cover for cloth or just to show off a cute bum: get a maz-a-licious, they're devine!;)
Had Celeste weighed this week (did I tell you that already? dont know) she is now 4.48kg. Smallest in my mums group even though some bubs are a month younger hehe.
I am loving my ring sling these days. I only have a hatchback car (till next week when we pick up our new commodore wagon) and if Im doing a lot of shopping I leave the pram at home cause I cant fit anything else in the car. I use the sling and get soooo many cute looks from people cause Celeste looks so small and cute cuddled up like a Koala in it. She loves it cause she can look around everywhere or go to sleep on my BB when ever she wants.
Ah, nothing else to report really. Got rellies coming over again today. Glad I did all the housework yesterday. I get that happy feeling when the house is all sparkly.
OO roo everyone!
Maz- Things in my neck of the woods is good, Chris worked long hours this past week as they had a traffic change to do so Sophie & I didnt get to see much of him, they were having a cuddle in bed the other night and Sophie was making noises/babbling to him like they were having a proper conversation so i told him to answer her as it encourages her to talk (so i've been told). Sophie is still in 000's and the pink pants you sent her are 0000's and she still fits into them. PMSL of course we wouldnt run away whether you'd showered or not, Sophie has been playing awake/asleep/awake/asleep since 6am she thinks its hilarious me not so much haha.
April- Sophie had a weepy eye for the 1st month of so & the dr gave us eye drops for 5 days, and then i just cleaned it with pre-boiled water a few times a day until it cleared, has been good for about 6weeks now.
bbwish- my DF too expects me to take Sophie to him, i just say to him "you've got 2 arms, 2 legs & a heartbeat that all work fine so get off your butt' haha. Luckily if i has DF to look after her while i shower, wash bottles or anything else he doesnt go anywhere until i've done what i wanted & when i'm finished only then does he go for a smoke. And when she cries he doesnt pick her up straight away but if she keeps crying he will pick her up.
Jess- Sophie is awake more during the day too, and belts the poor octopus on the activity mat haha. She also loves to watch the tv because of the colours & all the movement shes always laughing at the footy when we watch. Like today Sophie decided 5.30am was a GREAT time to wake up, so we've had a earlier than normal start to the day, she hasnt woken this early in several weeks now. Thanks for letting us know about Kate she sent me a message on the weekend (i think) and i had no credit as i forgot to recharge it grr so hopefully she doesnt think i was being rude.
Nik- i too dont wake Sophie for feeds anymore havent for about 2 weeks or so now. I feed her between 7-8pm and and put her to bed and let her wake me, because she just wasnt taking the whole bottle i was lucky to get her to take half of it. I still wrap Sophie, but if shes awake her arms come straight out if shes tired she lets me wrap her but as soon as she wakes up shes trying to free her arms haha.
QueenMab- Welcome Back!, good to hear Scarlett is better than she has been for you. Hope the move went well.
HELLO to everyone else :D
afternoon!
well i have a bit of news lol, my good mate, the one i been DTD with LOL.. has decided he wants a baby with me !? OH my god lol.. but hes not 100% sure cuz he might have to move away for work, and i said im not moving away from mum lol... :p so we'll just see what happens! and i dont think i want another one QUITE yet lol, maybe when jaylen is 6-8 months old..
well gotta go, lil man is hungry!
Good afternoon ladies,
Well it is pretty quiet in here today. Probably because it's the weekend.
Have got my Hens Night tonight!!! Looking forward to seeing all my friends and having a couple of drinks or 10! hehehe It's definately going to feel weird going out without Bodie, I will miss him. This will be the first time I've gone out in about a year & a half. :lol:
We went to Babies Galore today and brought Bodie a Bumbo baby seat. If anyone wants to have a look the website is Bumbo Baby Seat Introduces the Official Bumbo Play Tray
You can start putting bub's in from 3 months to 18months. Bodie seems to like it, he holds his head up pretty well now. You can also take them anywhere with you because there made from hard rubber and there very light.
Oh... I posted some pics the other day in my BB gallery and was just looking around at other pics when I came across a positive pregnancy test from AnnaT! She's due with baby #3 in December. Anna if your lerking around Congratulations! You certainly didn't muck around hun. hehe
Jess: Awww your good mate must see how good of a mum you are. Hope it works out for you guys.
Anyway's better go and see if I can have a sleep before I go out.
xo
Maz, we're in Blackburn... you are out further am I right? We are just renting & as DP found the house by himself it is hella NASTY... oh I can't even go into how bad it is right now, but bad!!
Apes, I got Scally a bumbo seat too, got mine from big w for $49.95 which I thought was good as they're that much on ebay & I rang around & some places had them for $79.95!! She's a bit unsure of it but is okay if you talk to her, ie; "Who's sitting up all by herself?!" lol. She looks positively teeny in it though! Hope your hens night is great!
Sazz - I agree with you; Maz does make some lovely covers!! Scarlett's grown out of the ones I got for her though, will have to try to russle up some dollars for some more - LOVE the arabian nights plushie... *drool*
Uh oh, baby alarm!! Better go, will try to BBL...
Hi ladies,
Amy was up at 2am this morning and then decided to wake every hour until I finally gave in and fed her at 4.30am. I was just so over it by that time. Then after a feed she slept until 7am so at least I got a couple of hours sleep after the feed. It was so frustrating because I knew she didn't need a feed in the middle of the night but she kept getting out of her wrap!! Grrrr. Had a good day today though. I've worked out that as soon as she yawns I put her to bed and she seems to go to sleep without too much fuss (it worked today anyway. I'm sure tomorrow will be different! Hehehehe).
Maz - Amy mainly got given 000's so I've had to buy her a fair few 00 things. Plus no one really bought her warm stuff so I went and bought some 00 warm stuff. I don't have enough stuff though.....we'll see when it gets cooler....it seems to be getting cooler this week.....Love the pic of Mateauz on your ticker. He is such a gorgeous little man. Nice one on him sleeping! Bummer about the headache....but hey would rather a head ache from too much sleep than too little sleep!
Sazz - I know what you mean about having things that weren't worn. I've been hopeless and made sure Amy has worn everything at least once. There are a lot of things that she only wore once. I've been keeping the special outfits for when we go out but really I should just dress her up in the nice stuff all the time so it actually gets worn!! Some of the dresses she's been given are just so gorgeous but too cold now. Maybe I should buy some leggings to wear under them.....and maybe some skivvies......I wish Amy liked her sling....maybe she will now that she has a bit more head control....might give it another go......
Jo - looooove your pics on Facebook. Sophie is just so adorable!! I had to wake Amy for every feed for the first six weeks so it was absolute heaven when I didn't have to do that anymore. There was a stage there where I was getting a 45 min break max between 3hrly feeds. It nearly did my head in! It would take me so long to get her settled and then 45 min later I'd have to wake her up! I LOOOOOVE not having to wake her up now.
Jess - that's great that your guy is so keen on you. I'm not ready for another bub yet either. I need the memory of the stress of the first 8 weeks to fade before I go there again. The labour was nothing compared to those first 8 weeks.....maybe the next one won't be so stressful when it comes to feeding and being early.....I hope your man doesn't have to move away from you.
April - Have an absolute BLAST at your hen's night! Looking forward to hearing about it. I had so much fun at mine. Geez your wedding is coming up fast. How exciting! I just realised that it's DH and my first anniversary in a couple of weeks! Wow! It goes so fast! Hope you got a sleep before you went out. I've seen those Bumbo seats but didn't realise they were special seats. They look like potties!!! Hehehehehe. I might look into getting one.....
Ok, well I'm going to go chill out and maybe have a glass of wine.....Amy's crashed out. will be interesting to see what she does tonight.....Have a great night ladies xxx Nik and Amy
Hi mummies!
Hawksey, just put some breastmilk in her eye! ds had a blocked tear duct and actually had pus in his eye! I just cleaned it with bm and it went away and never came back! bm is antibacterial and works a treat for al sorts of things really. My lc even told me to practice to aim when hand expressing so that I can spray it up his nose in case he gets a cold! It makes his bogies more soft and as it has antibodies, it fights the cold too. Havent tried that yet tho.
I used to wrap ds but since yesterday he's in a sleeping bag and he's doing just aswell. I just have to make sure he doesnt get overstimulated.
Hmm its been raining all day so no exercise for me unfortunately, i love our walks together!
Thanks everyone for reassuring me that dh behaviour is quite normal. I got really angry at him the other day! I asked him whether he wanted to change ds nappy or start dinner. He said he was gonna have a smoke first! So I said wtf? I'll just do both then! he immediately followed me to the nursery and changed ds nappy!
We now agreed to keep saturday night for just us (i work in a hotel but wont work saturdays/sunday mornings so that;ll be good) and eat at the table instead of in front of the telly so as to be more of a family really. Coz I really want a cozy, warm family I didnt just want a baby!
My wish for all of us: a night of uninterupted sleep for about 8 hours straight!
Sorry...:) I had to see what it looked like here!
I'm glad I haven't been the only one MIA!
Just had to pop in and say hello to you all;) & see how you're all faring,lol. All is well here, Jackson is such a good boy & sleeps pretty well too. Just no trouble at all! Was reading how some are having bubs who are teething? Already! Jackson isn't at that stage yet. I remember with Cara she would get really rosy cheeks when she was teething. All I can say is have the Bonjella or equivalent on hand and the little teether thingys you put in the fridge for them to chomp on for their little gums:)
Hello to all the New mums who have joined in our group too *wave*.
Like Maz I haven't really focused too much on wrapping our bub. He's pretty happy without it, so we just dont bother!
Hey! He rolled over yesterday onto his tummy- WooHoo. Couldnt believe it, How good is that. He'll be 3 mths next w/end so pretty much on time with his 1st major milestone!
Will try & come back a little more regular if I can:)
Jess, you are brave girl!!! I hope it works out for you though and it's what you want :D
Everything good here with us, we went to dinner last night with our mates and it was awesome, there were 8 of us and my Mum looked after Madeleine, it was our first time away from her.
She pulled herself up today too from her bouncer, what a milestone!
Have a good day xx
Hi ladies,
Have had a pretty good day today. Amy has been quite tired so has slept a lot. Just today she's holding her head up when sitting for long periods. Normally she'd wobble a bit but today is totally different. Every day something changes. So amazing and so exciting each day wondering what it is that she'll do next.
bbwish - i know EXACTLY what you mean about wanting a family. I wasn't the only one who wanted a baby....i wanted us to be a family too. It is a little harder for the man to feel involved though when bubs are so young. You have to coax them a bit don't you?! Glad everything is going well though.
carol - I don't think Amy is anywhere near getting teeth yet. I think her grizzles are just that....grizzles! I don't think she's close to rolling over either but we'll see. Good on Jackson!! Woohoo!!
Bindy - Yay on Madeleine being so strong!!
Well, better go. My sis is going overseas until August tomorrow so we're having a farewell dinner for her. I don't want her to go :-( seeya tomorrow xx Nik and Amy
HI everyone!
Hey Nik, that's difficult hey, your sis going away for so long and so far! She'll miss so much of bubs!
This morning Sander pulled himself up into a sitting position after I changed his nappy! That was a first! He;s been keeping his head up since he was only 1 month old. That was so amazing! I only occasionaly have to support his head.
He didnt want to sleep last night so didnt sleep until 11.30! Then woke at 4 and at 6! And then 7.30. So hopefully there's time for an afternoon nap for me today coz I do need to get some extra sleep by now!
Well had my hen's last night. It was such a fun night. Have got some pics up on facebook. I did end up drinking quite alot and had a little hangover in the morning but got a few more hours sleep and I woke up alot better. Thanks for DF for feeding Bodie. Missed them alot while I was out. It was funny because Bodie did 2 poo's for Dean while I was out hehehe. He just loves changing a dirty nappy!
Bindy & BBwish: Yay for bub's pulling themselves up! I think Bodie will be at that stage soon too, he always tries to pull himself up.
Nik: Yeah the Bumbo seat does look like a potty hehehe. I think it will come in handy though. Bummer about your sister going away. My sis is going away for a few months too at the end of the year :cry:.
Anyway gotta go get dinner ready. xo
Well we just weighed Madeleine, she is now 8.33kgs! Has put on 1.19kgs since 9 weeks....healthy chubba bubba! We are already in toddler nappies...I will now post a picture of her in the gallery for you to see!
Hi ladies,
Amy isn't sleeping much today so this will be quick as I need to do some chores!
Bindy - Madeleine weighs almost 3kg more than Amy. WOW! She looks so gorgeous in the pics you put up. She doesn't look like a chubba, just a very cute baby.
April - saw your hen's night pics. Looked like so much fun. Glad DF looked after Bodie for you and that you had a blast. I really want to get one of those Bumbo seats too but so expensive! will keep on looking on Ebay.....might get lucky when no one else is looking. Yeah right!......You looked beautiful in your hen's night photos btw!
bbwish - hope you are having an afternoon nap right now as I type!!
Well better go hang the washing out. Am hitting the gym this arvo. Looking forward to it....! Not noticing any difference yet though dam'n it!! I'm so impatient! Heheheh.
Luv Nik and Amy (3 months today!!!!)
Hi all.
Bindy great photos of Madeleine! She looks good, what a great healthy weight!
April, I will look at your hens night photos, glad you had such a good night!
I will have to look up this bumbo seat, never heard of it!
We are good, still only daytime catnaps, and very grizzly by evening, but finally moved Addy into a cot in her own room.Poor thing couldnt stretch out in the bassinette it was too small. It felt so weird moving her down the hall, I felt quite sad!
Anyway, going to get some sleep myself.
Night!
Maryx
morning girls!
bindy, good to hear madeleine is growing well! shes gorgeous! im getting jaylen weighed on wednesday, omg wonder what he will weigh! hes growing up so quickly..
april, glad u had fun at ur hens night, looks like fun!! great pics! people always say to me, oh your social life is over once u have a baby, bull$hit lol! having a baby doesnt stop anything!
mary, i have Jaylen in his cot now 2, they grow out of the bassinette so quick! but i have his cot in my room because he like never cries, so if i put him in his room i duno if i would hear him when hes hungry! i have a moniter but it doesnt work... i still dont know that i would hear him through one anyway lol, well i will have to put him in there one day!
well jaylen has been a bit unsettled for a few days, will put it down to the needles last week!
well thats about it from me! i think i might go for a walk 2day, get rid of some of this extra fat hehe!

Thanks girl in regards to Madeleine, all your Bubs are beautiful too ;)
Hope everyone is having a good day!
Hey girls,
Thank goodness I was able to sleep for 2 hours Sunday afternoon, I sooo needed that! The nights are still way too short!
Bindy, Madeleine looks gorgeous!
Oh well, all your bubs look sooo cute!
April you got some great pics on facebook!
Here's hoping today is as sunny as it was yesterday, so we can go outside for a long walk again! Its not too warm (10 celsius) but the sun is sooo nice!
So I have to do some cleaning (chores hehe) and then we can go out and play!
Have a good day everyone
Just a quick plonk of my butt
man Ive been busy cleaning my house back up since the boys have been back at school. Madnesss I tell ya.
On a high - my little man is 3 months today...the doctors said taht when he got to this milestone that we could breath alittle easier for him (with the blood clots and all) so WOO HOO
BBL Mateauz need's his girls ;)
Hey ladies!! the days are just going WAY too quick everytime i try to log on here and reply i find i need to do something or Sophie beckons.
Sophie has rolled over from her tummy to her back twice in the past week WOOHOO and i had her on her back just before and "helped" her from her back to her belly, i'm sure she'll be doing it on her own in no time. Sophie is still sleeping in her bassinette, she still has room to move around she does shake it a bit when shes moving around but not so much she'll tip it over. Will keep an eye on her if she gets too long for it i'll move her to her cot, but i dont know how i'll go putting her in her own room i dont think i would get any sleep after having her next to my bed since we came home from hospital.
Not sure if i've told you guys before or not but I have an appt at the hospital on April 14th because of my tear, really hoping SIL can take me as its short notice to ask a friend to take me. She said she has to check whether she has another anchor point in her rodeo ute.
My FIL, his russian bride (seriously) & her daughter arrive next Thursday (19th) they are coming for a visit/holiday from Nowra, NSW. They will be meeting Sophie for the 1st time & FIL is no where near as bad as MIL :lol:
Everyone who has facebook photo albums all your bubs are looking gorgeous!!. Bindy Madeleine is a cutie.
Jess- congrats on your good mate wanting to have a baby with you, so are you together or still mates?. We wont be TTC #2 for a while yet, i'd love to be pregnant again but i'm happy with just the 3 of us for now we're in no rush to extent our family, i made sure the chance of me falling pregnant decreased by getting my deprovera shot done 3 weeks ago now and have had my 1st period and its lasted 2 & a half weeks (sorry TMI). I hope it all works out for you :D
April- Hope you had a good time at your hens night, going by your photos on facebook you had a ball and you look FANTASTIC!!. Cant believe your wedding is so close now. Where are going on your honeymoon? i cant remember whether you'd told us before.
Nik- thanks for checking out my pics of Sophie, she is adorable and very cheeky!!. Amy is a little cutie and SO much hair. I'm glad i dont have to wake Sophie in the middle of the night for a bottle anymore, she is however only having 4 bottles a day (200mls each bottle), she doesnt seem to be loosing any weight and shes still sleeping well. Will wait and see next time i get her weighed and mention it to the dr/chn whichever 1 i go to. We've (Sophie & I) have been sleeping in until 9am for the last week or so its great.
Carol- no your not the only 1 who's been MIA theres been a few of us. I still wrap Sophie and she stays in it for most of the night but i will wake up to her with her arms out and usually shes wiggled her way out of it and shes on top of the blanket i put over her. She still lets me wrap her......for now i think i have a few 00 sleep suits/bags will have to have a look & might even have to buy a 000 sleep suit/bag. I dont think Sophie is anywhere near getting teeth just yet, i am going to try her on farax at 4months even if the chn says 6months Sophie's always looking at what were eating and spitting out her dummy in hope that we'll share with her its so funny.
BBwish- do you have any photos of Sander, lovely name by the way.
Question for all you obviously more 'tech savvy' girls... how do you link to your facebook pics so that peeps can see them even if they're not on facebook?? Or just how do I do it at all really... ;) All help greatly appreciated, thanks in advance, want to share my little pumpkin with you all!
Bonham, wow, go sophie!! Scally hates being on her tummy so she's never on it long enough to do any rolling lol.
Maz, Happy 3 months to Mateauz!! Glad you can breath a little easier. :)
Apes, Glad you had a fun hens night, what are they for if not to drink too much?!
NikW, If you lived in Vic I'd have let you have my new bumbo for el cheapo as Scally isn't a huge fan... she never likes anything I like lol, but as you are on the Gold Coast the postage would be a killer. If you've got a Big W near you they have them the cheapest as far as I could see.
Bindy, loving your new avatar!
hindonly, I am finding it harder & harder to check in too, having too much fun with my pumpkin & then when she's in bed unfortunately there is always something that needs doing!! Nice to come in here though & see how everyone is doing, yay on the rolling over..!
Hi to EVERYONE I've missed looking forward to being able to share my pics! :D
Hi ladies,
Just a quick one cos I'm dying for brekky.
Queen - there is a link at the bottom of your gallery or at the bottom of your photos pages that you can copy and paste into your signature. It's right down the bottom. It took me a few goes but I got it eventually. Amy hates being on her tummy for any length of time too. I haven't seen any indication that she's going to roll over any time soon. She's only just started reaching out at toys and stuff like that. But every day is different. I can't believe she's almost 3 1/2 months old. Would love to see some pics of Scally (such a cute nickname!!).
Jo - Wow Sophie! That is so exciting!! :-) I love the pics you have up. She's just gorgeous. I don't think I could get any sleep with Amy in our room. She's too noisy! We've got a movement monitor in her cot though so that has made it a lot easier for her to be in her own room. She's been in there from day dot.
Maz - yay on our bubs making it to 3 months. Mateauz is a trooper. I'm glad you can breathe a little easier on reaching this milestone.
bbwish - glad you got a nap. Man that is cold!!
Jess - Yay!! on Jaylen reaching 2 months! Doesn't time fly!??
Hi Mary and Bindy :-)
well, am gonna go and try to have some brekky. Have a great day ladies. Luv Nik and Amy xx
QM- to post a link to your facebook photos whether its just in a post or in your signature i was told to copy the link at the bottom on the album page on facebook click the little world symbol above where we type our replies paste the link click ok & the link to your facebook photos should appear wherever your trying to post it. Took me 2 goes to get it right and i have no idea what i did wrong :lol:, i'm not exactly "tech savvy" i had to ask the girls off BB for help as DF wasnt home.
BBwish- when did you have Sander, i cant remember reading. Our tickers are the same thats why i ask. Kate (lilyoceanmoon) & I had our babies on Jan 24th 12hours & 1minute apart.
Hi Girls,
bbwish, I hope you had a good night last night and got some more sleep.
Maz, congrats on Mat turning 3 months old, that's great news that he can breathe easier.
Bonham, Madeleine isn't rolling yet! I can't wait until she does. I agree with you not wanting to get preggers again, I think it will be just be my DP, me and Madeleine for a while yet.
Vic, thanks, it's cool isn't it.
Hi Nik!
Have a good day everyone, Madeleine is cracking it so going to settle her down, it's definately a 3 month thing, she is doing it a bit lately!!
morning!
went to the healthnurse yesterday, she said Jaylens pretty advanced for his age which is great! she said hes really strong ect, He weighs 6.3kgs and hes 58cm long! FATTY lol! when hes on his tummy hes started to half roll over, like lifts one arm & one leg but cant quite get over yet hehe
think he might be starting to get a bit of a cold, sounds a bit congested and 'phlemy' (sp) lol, and he fed every 3 hours last night, sooo i didnt get much sleep, but its all worth it ! :D
jo, we're still just mates, not sure what we want to do yet, so confusing and its annoying me so we're kinda just thinking about things and taking things slow lol!
i thought Jaylen was teething like a week ago, but now i dont think so lol
hello everyone else i missed, hope everyones well!
better go have a shower ect!
xx
AHA!! Thanks girls for helping me with that... I'm such a dork lol. Check out the pics now... go on, do it!!! :D
QM your not a dork,i didnt know how to post the link either haha.
OMG QM Scally has so much hair! and shes so cute and it seems theres alot of our bubs who have the red hair too i noticed from looking at everyones photos. I just added you as a friend on facebook hope you dont mind.
Sophie's been good today we woke up at 8.45am had a bottle had an hour of playtime on our back and then she went down for a sleep which lasted 40mins then she was awake for about 20mins and shes been asleep again ever since.
Well i think my first AF has finished now i shouldnt get another one as my deprovera shot lasts for another 2months and i'll get another one done before its due.
Maz- happy 3months to little matty!!, another milestone to record and you can breathe a little easier now.
Jess- thats fair enough, take things slow see where they lead to.
Bindy- i'm sure Madeleine will be rolling before you know it. When Sophie has rolled shes scared me more than she has herself. Yeah i think we'll just enjoy the time together just the 3 of us for a while for probably 2years and then hop on the TTC wagon as we werent exactly TTC when i fell pregnant with Sophie :lol:
Everyone else i hope your getting plenty of sleep & rest and that bubs are being good for you all
Bonham, I'm afraid we don't want any more children but who knows, we might change our minds...
Jess, I'd definately wait to have a baby with your mate, until you're in a relationship anyway, hope I am not sounding too interferring saying that! It's great that Jaylen weighs so much, little chubba like Madeleine!
Whoa...someone has done a huge poo.....off to change :doh:
haha na yer i totally agree bindy! yer how much does madeleine weigh again? i remember reading it but i cant remember what it was hehe
ok off to do some shopping!
She weighs 8.33kgs! Chubba....
Enjoy shopping!
Hey everyone,
Thanks for the 'hens' comments. It was a fun night.
Jess: Yeah I thought Bodie was teething a couple of weeks ago but now it's stopped. lol
Jo: We are going up to the Sunshine Coast QLD for 4 nights then heading back down home, but where staying at the resort where we are getting married for 4 nights so it'll be a 2 week holiday. I'm dying to get up there!
Have been feeling a little down lately, I don't know if it's the AF hormones or that my body is trying to cope with the pill. But I find myself getting really down sometimes where I just sit and cry. I think it doesn't help when I'm sitting at home for most of the day with Bodie and not getting out. Most of my friends are at work during the day. I have to go to the shops sometimes because I'm that bored being at home.
Sorry to vent ladies but I just had to get it off my chest. Don't get me wrong I love being a mum but I think if I don't get out and do something I will go crazy! Does anyone else feel like this???
Oh well I'm getting married in 2 weeks so I hope it comes fast!
Better get going and make some dinner...
April & Bodie xo
April - I feel the same sometimes. It's hard when you're used to getting out and about when you get bored. I think it's getting the motivation to get out there and do stuff. Are there any mother's groups near you? I'm not the biggest fan but maybe that's an option for you......although I've found that most of them are usually just a group for women to get together and compare....not for me but anyway.....I wish you lived up here, then we could go for walks and just chill out. Most of my friends work too or live too far away to see every day. Pop me an email if you need to chat. I totally understand. Maybe it's the stage that we're going through.....I've been down this week too. And now I've got a cold and really sore throat which does nothing for my mood whatsoever. I just cry over nothing sometimes. It's just part of being a mum I think and not having much time to yourself. Just keep thinking about how much fun your wedding will be. So close and so fun! we will definitely have to catch up when you come up here xxx
Jess - that's great that Jaylen is doing so well!!
QM - Love the pics of Scarlett. She's so gorgeous!
Jo - It's so fun when you get a decent amount of playtime isn't it!?
Ok, I'm going to go have some panadol. My throat is so sore I'm scared to swallow. xx nik and amy
