Hi ladies

I am back! I havent posted here for a few weeks but have had a read over the last few days. I really just needed to take the time to heal and be surrounded by family. We didnt want anything major happening so it was just a very quiet morning here christmas day, Oh besides the fact that ethan was teething and grumpy LOL!

Im am very happy to say that also i will be cancelling our sleep school visit this month as over the last few weeks i have been trying everything and finally i can say my sons a sleeper He has 2 day sleeps now, mid morning and mid afternoon for about 30 - 45 mins, then goes to bed around 8pm then gets up at 9.30pm has another feed and then sleeps from 11pm through till 5am and has a feed and asleep from 5.30am till 9ish!! YAY. Ethan has solids for lunch and dinner. But he didnt go to sleep until a bit later this morning so is asleep now.

Oh our house has SOLD!! We pulled out of the contract on the house we put an offer on as the building report showed 30 thousand dollars worth of hidden damage that needed fixing before we could move in. We should find out early next week if finance is approved for the house we now have an offer on, i love it

Thanks ladies for all your thoughts and kind words after my m/c, it really helped me to get through the worst days

I must go now as Dh is due home tonight (he has been away since boxing day) and he would like me too cook him a roast! So heaps to do. Hope you all had a great christmas and new year.

Hi all,

tracey, yay you survived. Wow that's a lot of mik from one side!! You must have been feeling full. I would have been leaking all over the bed if that had of been me. I'm sure you will have a nice routine set up in no time where the kids might start sleeping in. What will you do when school holidays are over, will you have to get up and help her get ready for school??

jess, glad to hear your going ok. Great that Ethan's sleep has improved. I hope he increases it some more for you and knocks out that getting up at 9.30, that will be a real treat for you.

wow I was expecting a whole days worth of posts, you must all be busy today. I got though my second day, one of the ladies I work with thinks that I might give up expressing after a couple of months (she said it in a nice way) but now I'm determined to prove her wrong. I'm going to do my bit for our $$ situation, for the environment and for all mummies out there by showing people that bb feeding is something to be proud of and admired. I'm saving 700-1000 er year by not using formula, and I'm not really eating much more than I normally would. I made 5 months and I never thought I would. Plus still no af for me woo hoo. And now I think with eing at work i will start loosing some weight, just have to remember to eat lol.

Hope everyone else is well

Bec, You go girl!! I am the same, when someone mentions something negative, I try my best to prove them wrong!!

Well, aetlyn was weighed today. She is 7kg exactly, so she put on 500gm in 3 weeks. There was a different nurse, and she seemed to be happy with that weight gain. Will keep a track on it. Although, we are going away next week for a week, and then plan on starting Kaetlyn on solids when we get back.

Hope everyone is well, its been rather quiet in here lately....
