hehe Adam always gets up, and goes striahgt to the little guy!! hehe
I am finding it sooo hard to let him cry. If it takes longer than about 20 mins to settle him, i usually pull the pin.... hehe
He seems to be doing really well, and I dont think it hurts him to have a little cry, especially when I'm pretty sure that hes fine, and just tired.
I am hanging out for my 6 week checkup.... I wanna start playing netball again!!!
Also gonna head ot weight watchers once my breastmilk has completely settled and worked itself out.
This appointment is gonna be huge... maybe I should call the doc now and tell him to reserve half a day for me!!! hehe
He'll be really excited to see the little one too... lol
I have been keeping up with what has been going on but can never seem to find the time to post.
Not much new here. Charlotte has been doing really well. She has been having a few 10pm - 4am sleeps so hopefully these start to become more regular. If she doesnt sleep until 4 am she wakes somewhere between 2am and 4am so I cant complain. Her thrush n her mouth seems to be nearly gone which is gret so she is feeding better now.
V - hugs to you. It is really tough when your baby wont settle and you dont know what is wrong or what to do. Jesse (our second) was just like this - we tried so many different things and we ended up seeing the paed again along with child and youth health and I did a day settling school - which was helpful as it reiterated some of the things I was doing and gave me a bit of confidence again - although most of our issues were at night so I would have preferred to do a night sleep school. We were also put on refulx meds but I dont really think this was the issue as well as a special formula for allergies. But what I can tell you is it didnt last forever and we got through it although it was very tough at the time. One thing I can say is that it got me really really down and this is probably something that you should watch - I ended up going to my GP and speaking to her about it and was then referred to someone else to talk to. Have you had any luck with the magic juice stuff from the chemist in Perth - I think I can remember you saying you got some? I wish I could be more help.
Hello and welcome sportchick - glad to have you jump on board.
Nicky - sounds like you and Lach are doing really really well. Good on you for wanting to get back into netball - I need to get into gear and start doing some serious exercise.
Rebecca - re your question about possibly coming across my friend at the Bendigo hospital - she works in the intensive care unit. I like your idea about not getting up until at least 2 waa's!!
ZOfia - bummer about losing the keys. I dont know how you do it all - work, study and a new baby - you are amazing!!
Dee - I hear you on the king size bed - I wouldnt cope without one!
Hi to everyone else. Hope you are all doing well. SOrry for lack of personals - things are just rather busy at the moment.
Nicki, you do sound like you guys are cruising along. good job, does this mean you forgive him for keeping you waiting for so long to meet him.
Veronica, how do you go lying down and feeding? Late at night, I've considered giving it a bash, just 'cause my head is tired and wants to plop down, but I would have no idea how to go about it.
Jemima, I hope I never have to meet your friend, if she's in intensive care. iykwim. and yeah i think 2 is about my limit atm, 'cause I've found that if he's really struggling, like we have been in the car going home, and he'll be starving, the crying really starts to get to me, and I start feeling sad, 'cause I can't fix the problem. must be hormones.
How is everyone else going? I must have no life, 'cause I seem to have more time to get on here now, than I did before xaviers arrival
Rebecca - I love lying down and feeding - it is so much more relaxing so I try and do it whenever I can. I just lie on my side and charlotte lies on her side and latches on. I also found that feeding Jesse like this (who was a nightmare feeder) was a lot easier - he seemed to find it easier to cope with the fast milk supply I had going on.
Hi everyone.
Yeah for netball- twilight starts here in a month or two, so am playing that. Missed out on this years winter comp casue by 6 weeks post pg the comp will have finished.
I really want to frrd laying down on my side to, but have tried it a couple of times and found it uncofortable, will keep trying though- I cant seem to find anywhere to put my arm that I am laying on.
Sporty chick- welcome- I saw that you were going to go to the meet up at fairfield as well. soory you cant make it- would have been good to meet with someone with the same age bubba.
Today is Kaetlyns 1 month birthday- and I have spent it...... in my pj's We had such a busy weekend that I had really bad headaches from lack of sleep- so said to aaron today- today is my rest day- hes made me breakky, lunch and prob dinner. I went to watch a movie on foxtel, but fell alseep, and had another big nap while kaetlyn was asleep in her rocker beside me. Ohhh i am really going to miss him when he goes back to work next week not sure what I will do- will be good to get myself into a little bit of a routine though.
Rebecca-maybe we should organise a chat catchup -like the good old times just before the bubbas all arrived!!! woould be fun.
Have to go- someone is stirring for a feed....
Oh and to rub things in Kaetlyn sleept from 10.30 until 4 am this morning and her last feed beofre that was 8.30!!! I was impressed, but had to wake her up cause I thought my boobies were going to explode!!!! TMI of spilt milk everywhere!!!
Happy birthday Rebecca. Hope you had a lovely day!
Fran - thinking of you and I hope Alessia is back on the boob. Hang in there sounds like things re on the improve.
Me - not much to report. Oliver and Jesse were in child care today so it was a lovely, quiet day. I finally got all the photos printed off from when Charlotte was born which was an achievement!! Now I just have to put them in an album - who knows how long it will be until I get around to that LOL!!!
I had best run as all saints in on and I need to vege out for a while. BTW I weighed myself this morning and gee wizz I have to get into gear and do some exercise. I dont have heaps to lose but I definitely weighed more than I thought I would, so hopefully the weigh in was enough to give me a bit of motivation. I wont hold my breath though LOL!!
