Fee - I can't believe Cooper went 8 hours between feeds, that's great. Oskar is still feeding every 3-4 hours (usually closer to 3). I don't watch tv when I feed him at night as his feeds aren't too long, apparently he has quite a strong jaw and can get what he wants quickly! Originally I was thinking of subscribing to one of those services that post you out dvds and watching them (Netflix?) as there's not much on tv at night.
boybump - Oskar did a massive throw up this week too, though only one fortunately. It gave us such a fright (me and him!). He had been unsettled for ages and got such a surprise he stopped crying and went straight to sleep. He did it all over the bed sheets I had just changed
Regarding the supermarket, I order my groceries online, so that is easier. It is more expensive than some supermarkets, but the local one I would walk to is a Coles metro, so expensive anyway. I do walk to the fruit/vegetable shop for the fresh things.
Have you had a unrinary tract infection? I started to get one and drank lots of water with 'Ural' sachets in them. They turn your pee alkaline and thereby inhibit the bacteria, you can buy them from the pharmacy and it is worth always having some on hand as they work really fast.
Tulip - Have a great time getting your hair done. Can you give your friends a call to get some 'adult conversation'? I am not normally a phone person, but have found I am calling people more now that I am at home. My parents group doesn't meet until the 17th, I am looking forawrd to meeting some local people as I don't know many people in my area either. I can't believe you were the youngest in your group at 26!
Babyamore - You are doing so great having two! So often with Oskar I think, how would I have managed if I had more than one?!
Thursday night I had only five hours sleep and was looking forward to getting to bed Friday. A t 1 am Oskar finally settled and I went to bed, but with bad stomach cramps. Woke up throwing up at 2.30 am and stayed like that until 7 am. I was getting so dehydrated and could't stand up or I'd start to faint. Jeremy would have to bring Oskar to me when he needed to be fed. Felt bad all the rest of the day, stayed in bed drinking flat lemonade until Saturday night when I felt able to eat, Still pretty exhausted now and wish I could have gone out somewhere with Jeremy this weekend
Hope you all had a better weekend than that! Well, Oskar has now fallen asleep on me so I'm off to put him in bed.
