Hello all...
Wow, so much to catch up on!

Tina - Happy Birthday, and am glad you are feeling better, and that Mikayla is putting on weight. She looks gorgeous in the photos!

Charly - how cute are those little giggles when the start. I think Aiden has been doing them more recently, and they are so wonderful to hear. Congrats on your good mummy moments!

Feathertop - for a good night out with Angus. You guys must of been so proud of your little man. Sorry to hear that you are still having some healing problems. I hope that things settle down soon for you.

Mel - its great that he's sleeping so well during the night. I find Aiden will still sleep during the day after a big nights sleep, he just needs abit more help to settle. But, then, i have also had a good nights sleep, so, tend to be abit more patient with him as well. Good luck with that milk supply.

Celsie - wow - already grabbing stuff. Aiden is getting close, he did grab something yesterday on his play gym, but, i dont think it registered to him that he had hold of it. So, other then our fingers... but, he is trying. He gets frustrated i think. I am glad that your DH is having better luck with settling Caeleb.

Sarah - hope the dream feeds are still going well for you.

Well, as for us - Aiden did 3 nights in a row of 9hours between feeds. Then, i changed his formula. Paed said to put him on to Nan 1 Ha Gold. So, i have. Much easier to get hold of aswell then the novalac. He has settled on to it pretty well, has a few more little chucks, but, nothing major. I think the biggy for him was that he was used to sucking hard to get the thicker formula out, and with this one, being not thickened, it has taken him abit to realise he doesnt need to work so hard. He doesnt seem to be as hungry either now, weather its related or not, i dont know. His poos thou, OMG - they are horrid. I asume its all due to the change in formula, but, by god, its a shocking colour and smell.
But, for the first few nights after changing his formula, he started waking up to 4 times during the night. Sometimes, he just needed to be resettled, other times, he was hungry. For the last few nights, just down to 1. Well, sorta. His last feed is at 7, then will wake again at 2, and then again at about 5 - 5.30am, but, i get up at 5.30am 6 days a week anyway, so, i dont really count it. And, he goes back to sleep about 6.30 anyway, till about 8.
He is funny thou, after his 2am feed, i have to put him in a sleeping bag, as he is SOOO happy, he likes to talk and laugh for the next hour. I mean, so happy, i cant put his dummy in, cause he wont stop smiling. But, i go back to bed, and drift on and off and listen to his chatter and laughter. But, he keeps kicking the blankets off. So, i put him in a bag now, and i wont worry so much about him.
DH is having better luck in settling him, depends on what his naps during the days are like..Aidens naps that is If he has one big nap, then he is a pain to settle, but, if he has lots of little naps, then he is easy! Go figure. He seems to have 'power naps' as well.

We are not doing the christening thing. I wouldnt mind, but, DH is of no religion (i dont think he is anyway, he doesnt know, and i have never asked his parents). My mum said i have to, cause if i dont, then he wont go to heaven and it used to stress me that we would never meet up again, but, i figure, the bible says God forgives all sinners, so, he will forgive Aiden, and let him in.. Well, thats my theory.

ANyway, off to post about the poo colour.. chat later!
