OMG people!!!!!!!!!! DH fed Keira last night at 10.30pm. I think he then put her to bed around 11pm(i was asleep) and she only JUST woke this morning at 7am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Holey crap! Her first night sleeping through! Well more than 4 hours too!!! Im in shock!!! She just had her bottle and is sitting here on my lap happy (not to mension how happy i am getting a full night sleep!!!!). Even got some smiles too! (Oh not sure if i mensioned it before, she started smiling on Saturday!)
Mel.. yes got the stuff and gave her one dose before that 10.30pm feed as she was have some pains. I wonder if that stuff actually made her feel so much better hense sleeping 8 hours straight!!!
Mez.. yeh thats good Izzy will settle with you DH too. Yeh im the same, try not to bother him.. some nights im just at my whits end though
Today is my first real day alone with the 2 kids. DH is at work, mum has gone back home. Will see how we go!!
Think Mr Man is awake.. have a great day all!
Kel - yay for sleep through!!!!!!!!! woohoo way to go missy moo!!!!! My little miss fed at 8.30 then woke up at 1.30 stayed awake till about 3 and then slept till 5.30 - when both of them woke up.... she's back asleep now and DS is watching the little red tractor on DVD. Hopefully that stuff works as well for Keira as it does for Mehkelti cos it has made such a difference in this house.
My cat is going spastic in the study.... I wonder if DH fed them before he left... hmmmm... Going by the way he is trying to eat the catalogue under his bowl - I think not....
First day here for me too by myself with the kidlets....and its a crappy, rainy looking day so no outside time either.. dang it!!!!! Will have to keep Dora on all bloody day... lol
Pixie - baby clothes sound like a bargain... I like cheap... I live for cheap... lol (except when it comes to cloth nappies!!!) Have you tried any of yours out yet mate?
Sal - Huge Hellllllllllooooooooooooooooooooooooooo to you.... lucky you getting to go back to sleep... ahhh... the days of only having one child to look after.. how I MISS them already... pmsl....
Well my diet started today...
Have to lose most of my pregnancy weight before going back to work in 10 weeks time. I've already cheated and had a coffee this morning.. pmsl... was supposed to be tea - but holy moly I was up at 5.30 - somethings gotta give!!!!! (not to mention all the leftover chocolate that is in the fridge.... hehehehehehehe)
Thats all from here. I probably won't get a chance to check in before tonight - so have a great day everyone!!!!!

Well I have to say last night has to have been our worse night since we came home. I think little Izzy had a belly ache cause she was just screaming the whole night. I gave her some Infants friend but I really don't know if it worked as she really didn't have many feeds (well not her full feed of 120mls). She did poo like 4 times though only little ones. I am so exhausted today I think I'll get as much sleep as I can when she is asleep.
Kell - woohoo on Keira sleeping for you guys last night, that is wonderful news I wish that would happen in our household Oh and on her smiles. Our little princess has been smiling for a week now it's so cute.
Mel - you can do the diet sweet, and if you slip a little that's okay too. I'm sure you'll be looking gorgeous in 10 weeks time. Good luck today with the two kids I'm sure you and Kell will do just fine.
Skittlebub - Hello and have a lovely sleep see you when you are back on line.
to pixie, jess, missy, zee, belle, tasia, sw and everyone else. Hope your little ones are behaving
Mez - I'm sorry you guys had a rough night... if the infants friend doesn't work, I highly recommend colic relief - makes them fart like nothin else.. lol... I hope her poos don't get too tiny and tough - I'm on the watch for them myself cos little miss GRUNTS like nothing else when poopin..
Sleep well today..

Mel - thanks sweet, if it doesn't work I think I will be buying the colic relief. Her poos are still like a mustard colour and soft (runny) looking just some amounts of it. Izzy GRUNTS too when she does #2s. I think I'll start writing down Qs I want to ask the MHN cause I really don't know what to do to help her, poor darling.
Mez - when DD was grunting just before and looking a bit uncomfortable (like it was hard to push out) I just lifted her legs to her chest a few times - like you do if they have lower wind and can't get it out.. it helps their poo come out too
(Now you know what to do for yourself if you are on the loo strugglin to push one out.. lmao)
Mez.. oh sorry you had a bad night hun. I agree with Mel. Try the Brauer Colic Relief. Not sure if thats what helped us last night (as for the past week + every night has been bad until now).. but yeh the Infants Friend didnt seem to work for us, and we were giving it before every feed. Oh thats great your getting smiles. Theyre so nice hey. Rest up today honey.
Mel.. haha yeh i have a few DVDs lined up too. atm hes watching In The Night Garden, but have BoohBah and Wheres Boo, plus his Dora one & Diego & mickey all ready to go hehe. Good luck with your diet. Oh i agree.. when you have nights like that you deserve a coffee! Im glad the colic relief is working so well for you guys. Makes such a big difference when theyre happy too. Hope it continues in our house too.
Oh Keira grunts too when doing poos.. even though theyre soft. Jesse did too.. think its just them doing a poo?
We also put Keira in her room for the first time last night. She had been in the cradle outside out bedroom door (which is kinda the entrance to the house area). Mum was in her room until now. I put hre back in bed when she was looking like nodding off just before, put some music on for her and just went and checked and shes out! SWEEEEEEEEEET AS! I really hope this baby stays and that grumpy one we've had before doesnt return!
I don't have time for personals as i'm surposed to be getting dressed for a clinic app. so hopefully when DH gets home i can come on and do personals.
i pop on every now and then and have a read but time is scarse these days so don't get to post. its funny tho, someone on here always asks the same questions as i have and i get great advice from your answers to them , so thanks.
this morning was a nightmare with 3 screaming babies for about 45mins so my sanity is about to crash into a wall but we are doing ok.
