Babies Born July 2007 #4

Nicky, it could be a fast letdown? Or it does sound like Zyon was a few wks back.. It turned out he has silent reflux...
You could try calling your MCHN, or the MCHN HOTLINE....

Rebecca, nope the bicarb is just a nice soft feeling in the bath & I have always used it in my babies bath water, never have they had any skin issues, or the milk rash either, it's very gentle on their skin..

Yeah Nicky, I think Tracey might be on to something, he sounds alot like what Jack was like to, and he has both reflux too. He didn't always throw up to begin with, actually not at all, that didnt start until a few weeks ago, but what I have come to learn is that he was throwing up but swallowing it again, which was burning him inside (poor little thing). But definately something to ask about, you don't want to leave it too late like I did. Jack is a different baby now
Good Luck.

Hey V - how totally exciting that you are shopping for wedding dresses. It is sooo much fun isnt it and how great to find one tht you love on your first outing. I cant wait to see some photos of this wedding in I think 92?? days time!!

I have tonsilitus (sp?) so I am sorry for no personals. I am feeling very very fragile although on a positive it is doing wonders for post baby weight loss as I am too sick to eat LOL!! Not the best way to lose weight I know.

Hope you are all well.

I will BBL and say hi properly.

Hi all,

Jesikah, you sound exhausted. I'm sorry to hear about the pnd, that was and I guess still is a fear of mine. Have you visited the PND threads, there are some very supportive ladies in there.
Have you got a sling or baby carrier of some sort, I find that helps Xavier get more than half hour of sleep when he's playing funny buggers

Tracey, have a great time, we expect pictures!!

Veronica, yay for the dress shopping, it's great fun huh? Have you tried putting avaleigh down to sleep in the cot for her biggest night sleep. That seems to be the least fussy time for xavier, he just knows its bedtime??

Jemima you poor thing tonsillitis!! no fn at all. Get well soon.

Hope you all have a good sleep tonight.

Wow, I can't believe it's been a whole day and none of you have posted in here.

I hope everyone is doing fine.

Xavier slept from 8.30pm till 5.20 am this morning. almost 9 hours. I actually woke at 4.20 and had to go and check on him. I ran back to bed once I realised he was fine.

I hope he keeps doing this.

Hi everyone

We've had a fairly busy weekend. I went shopping yesterday with Diana and my sister. It was lots of fun as its been ages since I've had a chance to do anything like that. It was going to be an expedition to get clothes for Diana (and she got lots - will post the pictures in the next day or so), but I ended up getting some new shoes for myself too. Yay. I also bought Diana a swimming costume and a hat, and also ordered her christening dress. (So have no money left until payday, lol.) My sister bought Diana a pretty dress that she can wear for my wedding later on this year (she's going to be flower girl - if she can hold a flower in her hand by then that is, lol). Diana didn't sleep much during the day or during the night last night either. I think she woke up for about two or three feeds.

Today the weather was really nice, so Stan and Diana and I went for a long walk around our neighbourhood. And this evening I got some good work done on my assignment. So I'm really tired now. (And I just realised that I have done no housework this weekend, other than the laundry. Oh well, never mind. )

Jemima - hope your tonsilitis gets better soon.

Veronica - yay on choosing a wedding dress! How exciting. I am getting married in November, but as its my second time, it's only going to be a very small affair. So hopefully I won't steal your thunder when you post all your exciting wedding preparation news here.

Jessikah - hugs :hugs: Hope things get better for you soon. It's great to hear that Ethan is smiling, isn't it? They're so cute when they start to do that. And I know what you mean about him being camera shy. Diana is like that too and always pulls funny little faces rather than giving big smiles.

Tracey - have fun on your trip.

Mel - glad to hear that Jack is better. Hope your open house went well.

Hi to everyone else. Hope you all had a great weekend.

Nicki, yay that feeding is going better now. I hope it continues to get better for you.
Have you got anyone that you can call when your having a stress day.

Let me know I'll give you my mob number if you want. Not that I can get anywhere with any sort of speed, not driving at all lol. Sometimes its just nice to know there is some one around.

Hi All,
No news here, except that the gown is going really well, but the overlocker broke the other day . not sure what happened one minute it was fine and the next, its not sewing will have a look at it when I am not so tired.

Am reading your news regularly, but nothing to report.

Except I have been having big let downs of late- I am not sure if they have got stronger or me just noticing them more.

Well off to bed, my grand plans of folding, ironing dusting and vaccuming didnt go to well today- all I got done was the folding
Iam planing on getting up early tomorrow to get dusting and vaccuming done after Kaetlyns first feed cause she always goes back to her cot for another sleep. Watch now that I said that she will stay awake tomorrow morning, which is a bummer cause I have some friends from work coming over for morning tea.

I am really tired now so will get to bed- I seem to be addicted to smilies tonight - opps this morning

Goodnight all....will do some personals tomorrow sometime
