Hi girls! I have been a bit MIA for the past few days - had a couple of really bad days with Tom, and developed an addiction to Facebook. I have read thru all the posts but brain too frazzled to remember everything!
Veronica - i cant believe your wedding is so close. I remember before my wedding my diary was just booked up with things to do every single day so you are like superwoman doing it with a baby!
Somebody mentioned about giving bubs water (sorry cant remember who) - i brought Tom a thing from the chemist called the Fresh food feeder (Tommee Tippee brand). It has a handle and little mesh pouch on it that you put food inside and the baby sucks on it. I have been putting ice in it and Tom has been sucking on that. When he gets older, you can put fruit and stuff in it. He is a little bit unco at holding it so i have to help, but he seems to like it.
I think Tom is starting to teethe because we have had a nightmare couple of days with him. I thought that it was a reaction to his needles but now his top gum is all bumpy and red. If he gets the teeth in the place where the bumps come up, he will look like Dracula. i have just been giving him Panadol and a cold face washer to suck on. Is anyone elses bubs teething? Any advice from any of the supermums on here? If he isnt getting teeth, i dont know whats going on because i have even lost my fabulous little day sleeper. Nights arent too bad but days are a different story. Yesterday he screamed for two hours straight. When DH got home he put him in the pram and took him for a walk so i could have a rest.
We had mums group yesterday and went to the cry baby session at the movies - Tom took the cry baby part literally but apart from that, it was quite fun. i cant remember the name of the movie but it was the one with the Rock in it. It was a good one to watch with kids because it wasnt too taxing on the old brain!
Better be off - i have my niece today because of the teachers strike so better go keep her entertained. Touch wood - Tom has been down for 1 hour so far. i really dont want cranky baby today!!
V - i just looked at your gallery. Jason looks gorgeous in his suit. Is it a pin stipe? i absolutly love your dress too. Just showed my niece (age 7) who loved it but is concerned about how does the dress stay up? Am about to sit her down and give her a fashion lesson!
