    baizar- that is great well done, i have looked into that but it cost too much money, B/F has helped me lose some weight.

    I feel so BAD i was carryiing Charlotte around and was walking out of a door way when i herd a bang, she hit her poor head on the side of the wall, she didn't cry that much, but she went to sleep straight away (she was tired anyway) so i keep checking on her, i feel so BAD.
    Anyway we had a crap day yesterday Charlotte didn't really want to feed and she was screaming, mum was over and she went and got her some forumla, anyway she didn't really take that either, so i took her to my health centre and got her weighed to make sure she was getting enough. She has put on 260grams in 11 days, so she is getting enough, the health nurse said to strech her feeds to 3 hourly, this has made a big difference, she is feeding yay.
    so at 12 weeks she weighs 5090 yay she is over 5 kilos.

    Hi girls

    Wow all my boys are asleep ie Dylan and DH. Well last night I had a couple of drinks and saw a band with my hubby while my mum looked after Dylan. When we left (bout 9pm) he was asleep and we both had this sneaking suspicion that mum would pick him up as soon as we left and cuddle him the whole time we were gone but apparantly he woke at 11.45 and she tried to resettle him but couldn't so fed him a bottle which he guzzled and then she tried to put him back to bed but he wouldn't have a bar of it so she kept him up and when we got home at 1.30 he was up and wide awake but I managed to get him back down about 2 and then he slept til 6 and then after a feed he and I slept til 9.45 so not too bad. DH and I spent most of the time out not talking about Dylan but we did spend a bit of time before the band started looking at all the photos we have both taken of him on our mobiles which was pretty funny. I also kept wanting people to know about Dylan but unless I wore a tshirt saying "I am a mummy and a yummy mummy at that!" people were none the wiser. I feel very proud to be a mum and I know that the life of getting drunk all the time and wearing slinky tight clothes is behind me now and I am happy that it is because I love being a mum and I would much rather spend the night at home watching a DVD knowing my baby boy is tucked up in bed than out. What a ramble!!!

    Dylan has started spinning himself around on the floor and wriggling off his play mats and he has definitely found his voice this week and it is loud!!!!! He is also grasping things if you offer them to him and I bought him some plastic rings and he loves grasping those the most.

    My Dfriend who is having a baby in March gave me a good tip today which I thought I would share with you all, if your baby is grasping something and you want them to let it go i.e. your hair, earring, glasses, etc just put something in their other hand and they will let go. Apparantly they don't know how to let go by themselves at this stage and this creates a distraction.

    KMH I did that with Dylan while he was in the sling and he cried and then I cried I was trying to do housework with him in the sling but took him out as soon as I hit his head. Don't feel bad I am sure she will be fine. Is the hand and feet sculpting expensive?

    Baiza Yay for you I wish I could lose weight I have been wallking this week four times and not eating too many bad things but the weight is not falling off as I had hoped.

    Bubsey Yay for you too I am so far off my pre-pregnancy jeans it is not funny I need to do some work.

    Fee Gee Cooper is a big boy. I am going to go to our clinic this Tuesday and get Dylan done as I am too curious to see how big he is.

    To those who were talking about their weight just recently here is my story when I met DH I weighed about 50kg and was wearing an 8-10 which for my height is a bit underweight (5ft6). Then when we started going out I put on some weight and got to 54kg. Then by 6 months before our wedding (2 years together) I weighed about 60kg and was in 10-12. Then by our wedding I got down to 55kg and was toned and looked great I was wearing a bikini around Brampton Island on our honeymoon. Then by the time we started trying to get pregnant (1 and a half years after our wedding) I was up to 69kg and in a 14 so I started trying to lose a little before falling pregnant and I lost 2 kg down to 67 and then I fell pregnant. During my pregnancy I gained 18kg and was 85kg at 40 weeks and I now weigh 76kg and am still wearing my materinty pants. I cannot fit into my size 14s and I refuse to buiy a 16 so I have to do some work. My goal would be to be about 57-60kg and in a 10-12 so I am hoping that by the time I go back to work (if I go back) in May I will be there, eeekkkkk!

    Anyway enough rambling from me.

    i just have to share this - zac did his first roll by himself. he was having tummy time and he started wobbling side to side then he rolled over to his back. i rang dh so happy. when dh got home from work i put zac on his tummy and he rolled for daddy.
    to those talking about weight - i put on 9kgs when pregnate (i was realy sick durning the pregnancy) i have lost 17kgs to date. the only thing i am doing differant is trying to walk every day where as i could barly walk at all when i was pregnate.
    i saw the ostepath on thursday and he wants to treat me to get rid of zacs reflux. dont know if its working but zac is becomeing a differant boy. it also looks like zac has a form of lactose intolerance (like i did at his age) i had a big bowl of ice cream and some milk and the next day zac was throwing up at every meal and alot. i have not had dairy for 3 days and he is now only doing tiny spit ups.
