Hi girls,

wow only 25 days til christmas!!!

Sacha - Do you think she could be teething? Also, has she had her 4 month needles? If so, did this start after that?

The only thing I've noticed that gave Oliver the runs was Indian food so I've avoided that. Other than that I have only cut out caffeine and alcohol. I know that a cup of coffee or a glass of wine a day can't hurt but I just like to avoid them cause they are dehydrating and I don't want to mess with my milk supply. But! I am going to have a drink or two over christmas, which brings me to this question - how long do you have to wait before bfing after having a drink??? I think I read somewhere once that you had to wait 3 hours per standard drink.....is that right?

Nicky - great news! And I love your new username!!

August - thanks....and sorry about your brother. What a beautiful honour for your little man to be named after his uncle and wow - I have goosebumps after reading he was born on his birthday. Oh and congratulations on the engagement!!!!

Tracey - I have been on ebay this morning bidding on cloth nappies!!!! LOL. A neighbour recently gave birth to a boy and I was just like you, can't imagine Ollie being that small. Zyon is so gorgeous!!!!

We are putting our christmas tree up tomorrow - we always get a real one - makes heaps of mess but they are so beautiful. I bought the boys a stocking each, they are just plain so Lexxen and I are going to decorate his and Olivers over the weekend.

Oliver has been a bit fussy with his feeding the last few days but AF has returned so I'm thinking it's just that. This is the second time and like last time I feel like my supply has dropped a little but I am taking your advice Tracey and offerring every 2 hours.

Well I'm off to do some boring housework.

Have a great weekend girls!!!

Hi there girls.
Congrats on your engagement AMM!!!

Not much happening here, MIL's appointment is right now, so fingers crossed.

I'm still very dizzy. Its very hard to focus. Stupid ear infection. lol

Does anyone elses bubs LOVE sleeping on their bellies? Lach will sleep for hours on his. Now that he can roll onto and off it, he does it all the time.
I dont let him sleep on his belly at night. I'm too chicken. But during the day when I can keep an eye on him. He's been on his belly for an hour now and hasn't stirred.

I have the rice cereal on standby in the cupboard. Have had it for a few weeks. We are going to try and sort out his constipation issues before attempting solids tho.
He has been 3 days now with no formula. His poos are back to normal too, nice and sloppy. lol

It looks like all the trouble we had with BFing is now subsiding I will def keep trying to feed him for as long as humanly possible. I now have a ray of hope that we can make it to the 12 month mark as I had initially wanted. sweet.

Anyway, hope everyone is well. Thanks for the well wishes in regards to MIL.
Have a good day

xxoo


p.s did everyone notice my little munchkin in my ticker now hehe
