Babies Born July 2006 #4

Hi Gorgeous Girls!!!
Sorry that I have been off the air waves but we had to get a new pc…but I can see that I have missed out on heaps …Ive read a couple of pages and my oh my …how our July babies have grown!!!

Jensen is doing great! He is 4 months old today! And Ive just come back from having had his 4month immunization…poor little man!

Cass- just read your posts…what we did with Jensen was put him on a routine…as we had huge sleep issues too….theres a book called “save our sleep’ and I swear by it….as does 6 other Mums in my mothers group…This book and her outine gave us all back our sanity and gave us happy, sleeping babies! Its not easy to do in the beginning…buty it really does work! Hope it all gets a bit better for you and Dylan soon babe! Oh and Im starting Jensen on solids this weekend…in this book she suggests getting them started at 4months…to get them used to eating a little bit and discovering new tastes…plus its meant to help with sleeping! I cant wait to start as all the bubs in my mothers group apparently just love it!

Em- Wow! Charlie is sooooooooo cute! Love the new photos of him! Glad to hear that you’re a bit happier too…bad plunger coffee fixes everything! I hear soggy sangers are a hit too!

Fee- Im having the same noise issues with Jensen too! If he hears a really loud noise especially while hes feeding he will cry too and he dosent like it at all when people talk really loudly around him…like you said I think they are just becoming very aware of whats going on around them…Im sure they will get used to it eventually though.

Ok well Ive got lots of posts to catch up on!
Hugs to all!!!

Cooper was a little angel at the my mother's group yesterday! I was so surprised. How strange that he was all weird the day before and that was just visiting one friend and one baby. Yesterday there were 3 other babies and a toddler!

He slept until 3.00 am this morning so I fed him then. He then woke at 6.00 am but fed for 1 minute and then chucked a hissy fit. He is doing this a bit lately with that morning feed. So I just put him straight back to bed because he had been yawning since I got him up anyway. He slept until 8.30 am and then had a better feed. After that feed and play time he then had a long nap until midday. He is sleeping so well during the day at the moment.

Cassie – I was just asking about solids because a lot of people I know have started their babies on solids at 4 months. And just after reading your comments about the MCHN giving you brochures about it. I plan on waiting until Cooper is 6 months. Was just curious as to what you (and everyone else) will be doing.

Fraser – Yay for Charlie rolling over!!! Hope your mother's group was good.

Boisey – So you're starting Jensen on solids early? Let us know how you go! I wonder if it will help Jensen sleep better at night. Apparently sometimes it helps but not always! Anyway I'm sure it will be heaps of fun!

Hi girls

Fee I think the MCHN gave me the brochures because they don't see him again until 8 months and they should be on solids by then. I am waiting til 6 months also as I don't believe he needs solids until then.

Cyn Thanks for your words I will have to have a look for that book and give it a go. It will take me weeks if not months to get into sleep school so will have to try another remedy.

Em Yeah I am sorry about Lily too and in fact I feel so so sad about it but I am just going to be patient and I am sure someone will want her I refuse to 'surrender' her to the RSPCA only for her to be put down.

I had some other things to say but now too tired byeee.
