I started mothers group yesterday which was good!! Freakiness times 2 thought!! There is one person who was in the last series of childbirth ed taht i took before i finished work!! and 2nd a lady who was induced same day at same hospital by same ob and had emerg cs straight after me (i got moved out of theatre to recover quicker so tehy coudl bring newxt pt in which was her) OMG how weird in all of melbourne we live near each other and when i mentioned my best friend had 3 kids youngest being 6 days older than Jacob it turns out she had met her in waiting room of ob once!!
We have put on another 100 grams this week and MCHN still concerned re low weight gain so i went to GP and got script for motileum!
Last night and today he has been an angel went back down 0300 up at 0600 down 0700 and woke at 11am (so yes i got to sleep 0700 till 1000 when i got up had a shower and had food alone) was really impressed was meeting a friend for morning tea but i sms her and we still caught up but at nearly 1pm!!! he was an angel while out also fell asleep in prama nd was happy when i put back into car and out 3 times!!!
Missy Jacob is not making any noise really apart from screaming!!
Tannis hope he is better soon poor little man
Gudism u must have a huge amount of nappies by now!!!!!!!
thepixie woo hoo for hair getting done my greys are soooooooooo bad was a while before Jacob was born that i got mine done.
Kellxx glad jesse had a great bday.
kristy J u r doing an amazing job with all those boys well done
anasatcia woo hoo on outfit!!
Hello to everyone else hope babies and treating u well
Mel: WOOHOO you made just over double you did the day before! I didn't think about the wait in emergency, your right I wouldn't have seen a Dr in there until after my original appt...I didn't have a lot of confidence in the Dr we saw though (not our usual Dr). Woohoo on 2 kids asleep!
Tenny: Hate to tell you but baby brain doesn't go away....it in some cases gets worse after birth because of sleep deprivation LOL On the positive side its a great excuse when you forget something!
Kell: I can give him panadol (or Dymadon we have) but I haven't yet as it doesn't seem to hurt him unless he stands on it, Dr was poking it and moving it and Jayden was fine, maybe its in his head!
Kristy: I didn't know what fluffy mail was either LOL
Missy: Ash is gooing a bit but not all the time...Liam is probably taking it all in and not worried about talking just yet. WOOHOO on Callum sleeping in his own bed!
Rach: what will happen when Beth needs a feed? Will you just feed her while you are getting your hair done or time it so she doesn't need a feed? Will be great to get your hair done. I haven't had mine done since a week before I was due so that is roughly 8-9weeks ago, must get it done soon SIL#4 is a hairdresser.
Feeb: Yay on starting mothers group....what a small world hey? I'm thinking of starting a mothers group, I think i know enough ppl now with young kids...its just getting organised to do it and meet up. Motillium is great stuff! Jayden gained 810g in 2 weeks when I was on that. If Jacob is gaining weight even if its not huge amts thats still good....your doing a fantasic job!
LC called me earier and asked if I would go to an ante natal class tomorrow night and talk to them about BF'ing and the problems and perservering etc....I felt terrible but I said no, I'm too shy do it and also its at 7.30pm which isn't the best time to be out when you have 2 kids....I kinda wanted to do it but I don't have her number to tell her anyway...best I don't. The LC I saw when I had Jayden had asked the same thing when Jayden was a baby......Only cause I have all the problems you can have with BF'ing haha.
Well going to wake Ashlea up for a feed so she will sleep through, I mentioned to the LC on the phone that I was a little worried about how much she sleeps.....I should feel very lucky she sleeps so often and for so long but I worry its because she isn't getting enough milk...we'll find out Friday.

: making it colourful
Hehe another good night here, Keira wise.. slept from 9.30pm until 7am this morning woo! Jesse.. still waking moaning all night.. once even crying. Even put a night light in his room last night.. didnt seem to make a difference. Dont know whats up with him.
Yep Syd ladies.. tomorrow at Castle Towers outside Kmart at 10am! Cant wait!
Missy.. good to hear Liam's doing well. Um.. Keira coos when shes smiling.. or on her playmat. How often is Liam doing it?
Pixie.. thanks hun. Yep he did deserve it for sure. Have fun getting your hair done!
Tannis.. i was talking to DH about Jayden's leg last night and he reminded me a similar thing happened twice before with jesse..once when he was only starting to pull himself up, but also about 6 months ago. I didnt take him to the doctor, but he wouldnt walk on his leg and would cry when he tried to. Then meraculously, it was fine. Have no idea what happened or what was wrong. I hope Jayden is better this morning.
Feeb.. glad to hear you mums group went well.. how weird hey! small world!
Well no plans today, just a home day yay! No house work to do either as i did it all before mum and dad came down yesterday. So just gonna spend the day relaxing with the kiddies.
Kel - yup I officially hate you now M is still waking up at 2... no matter if we feed her at 10pm or earlier... ahh well I know it doesn't last forever. Weird about Jesse moaning - is he still getting his molars??
Tan - I hope his leg is better today I would be too shy to talk to a group too - I hate public speaking!!!
Feeb - small world hey.... freaky when those things happen.... and yay for 100 grams!! - I think thats excellent!! Oh and one can never have enough nappies - but in my defence - I just sold 16 of DS's - so I need to replace them
Helloooo to everyone else. Going to try and stay off BB today - got too much housework and other stuff to do today - and BB is far too distracting!!!
Well I had a great sleep. Fed Liam at 11 then DH had to start early so he did the 5 feed. Yep he slept from 11 to 5 and is still in bed now. Callum slept till 7.30 but did get up once last night but that is ok as he went straight back to bed when I put him there.
I cant wait for the meet up tomorrow will be fun seeing all the babies.
lol on the double Anastasia I started to read it again and thought hang on ive read this......lol Thanks for letting me know hun. He is smiling alot but not realy cooing/gooing. But you can see that he is trying so much to do it. The hands go every where and the leg kick. He is so funny when he tries.
Oh Tannis poor little Jayden I hope he will be ok and the xray show what ever is wrong. Good luck for Friday hun. Its scary when they sleep so long I know. The time Liam slept through from I think it was 11 to 6 or some thing like that I freaked out as it was a long time. I think they just get so warm that they just sleep. Im sure all will be ok.
Hi Feeb wow your little one is being good for mummy. How much weight has he put on since birth. What was his birth weight and now what is it. I think as long as he is putting on weight Id be happy with that. he isnt losing it so thats good. May be he is just a little eater. Im sure all will be cool hun. Wow on the mothers group and isnt it funny how we meet people thta know who we know. Glad you liked it.
hey Kell. YAY on the good sleep. wow your llucky having a relaxing day. I love those days. I was out in the front garden all day tuesday with liam in the pram, it was so nice. Im thinking about doing the back today. Not sure as I might be going to gf house but just waiting to hear on her. Liam does coooo but not a great deal. He is trying so hard to and the smiles I get at huge now. Just not the coooing. Do you think I should be worried. I think Callum was doing more but not sure.
well hi to all the rest of you. Hope your all well.
Tan - I fed her at 8 so she should be right until about 11.30.... there is a bottle of EBM in the fridge so the Bear can feed her then and I'll be back for the next one... that's the plan anyway....
gotta split now so everyone else, catch up later!
not fair kell! last night i thought ok i'll feed, bath and give a massage with lavender at about 8.30-9pm and then i topped up their feed as they didn't quite finish their bottle, i thought this was bound to help them sleep longer. BUT NO caleb was up again at 1am i managed to put him back to sleep without a feed, and than they both woke up at 3.30am than at 6am. and they are still awake. i might go and see if i can get them to sleep they seem happy in the play pen for the moment.
missy yep i also am excited to see you all again tomorrowand it will be good to meet pixie and bare too.
mel i know BB is so distracting 4 me too. i wanted to do heaps yesterday but go no where.
ok bbl sebastian has had enough and starting to cry, maybe caleb said something to upset him.
Mel - BB is very distrusting for me too, I'm always on trying to keep up even if I don't post. How are you doing? Isabel is still waking for a 2 or 3am feed too but at least I am now only feeding 5 times so I'm managing to get longer sleeps from her.
Kell - So nice that Jesse had a great time yesterday for his birthday. They do grow up quickly hey, my little nephew is turning 2 in October and time has flown with him too. I'm sure the same will be with our little princess.
Missy - Liam is doing so well with his feeds, I really can't wait till our little sleeps through the night.
Tasia - Yes I'm still in for tomorrow's meet up at Highpoint I really can't wait to finally meet you and Jonathan. I'm also looking forward to meeting little Jacob too.
Well my little princess is asleep at the moment and I've done a bit around the house even managed to have a shower and wash my hair normally I only get to have a quick shower. I have also started her on Karicare AR full time and it seems to be working so fingers crossed this helps my little princess. she is also sleeping longer her last feed was at 10:00pm and then she woke at 3am for her next feed so I was happy with that.
I better go and vacuum while I still have time otherwise it will be a battle to do it when she is up. I'll check in a little later on. Have a lovely day all
mel what did you say about BB being distracting?i 'm still here.
Ayapi-check with your chemist but if you still have a little reflux withthe AR you can add some infant gaviscon to the formula its working wonders with the twins.

i am still up for tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!! i hope i am on time (will be as long as jacob wakes up on time unlike yesterday when he woke at 11 when i was ment to be at highpoint at 11am!!!!!!!!!!
Mary- Oh good, I thought it was cancelled. But that's great I'm looking forward to meeting u, Izzy, Feeb & Jacob? Is anyone else coming? What Level is Max Brenners again?
well i've managed to vacuum, fold our clean clothes, and now having a cuppa. Man I've been very productive this morning.
Kristy - Oh how adorable is Ike, love the photo. Izzy is also having Zantac morning and night so hopefully that is working but if it doesn't I will definitely ask about the gaviscon at the chemist.
I think that Jess is also coming but I will give her a call and confirm with her. Looking forward to seeing you all. I guess we will all aim to be there by 11am. I normally just put Izzy in the car and go even if she is sleeping She'll be right.
Well both my kiddies are asleep so im going to attempt to post and have lunch while i can!
Mel.. hehe sorry But thats what Keira was doing! No matter what time i fed her the night before, she'd wake at 3am. That went on for a week or 2 (while she was having the Colic relief). But the night since she started the Infacol, shes been sleeping through since. Her last feed is always between 9.30pm-10pm and the earliest since that she has woken is 4am.. but that was only once. Most of the time its been 7am. Hope M starts that for you too soon!
Missy.. nah i wouldnt be worried at all hun. Every baby is different. Youre getting lots of smiles so thats important i think. He'll get there. Maybe he'll just be a laid back person iykwim? Oh very good with the gardening! Im kinda glad in that respects that we rent and our landlord looks after all the gardens and lawns!
Kristy.. oh that sux. Hey how long did it take for that stuff to work? Can see much difference in Keira at all.. shes still bring up just as much i think, and over the time after shes had it. Might not bother with it soon.
Mez.. oh good stuff re the formula. Hope she stays alot happier now.
Ohh Kristy and Mez.. re that infant gaviscon it says on it NOT to add it to other feed thickening agents or infant milk preparations containing a thickening agent. So DONT add it to the AR formula unless youre advised to. Sorry.. just thought i better mension it.
Ok.. lunch is finished to better go fold those clothes!
M is still waking up at 2... no matter if we feed her at 10pm or earlier... ahh well I know it doesn't last forever. Weird about Jesse moaning - is he still getting his molars??
I would be too shy to talk to a group too - I hate public speaking!!!
...lol Thanks for letting me know hun. He is smiling alot but not realy cooing/gooing. But you can see that he is trying so much to do it. The hands go every where and the leg kick. He is so funny when he tries.
Bet you cant stay away to long...heheheh
everyone else, catch up later!
normally I only get to have a quick shower. I have also started her on Karicare AR full time and it seems to be working so fingers crossed this helps my little princess. she is also sleeping longer her last feed was at 10:00pm and then she woke at 3am for her next feed so I was happy with that.
