Think I will love Dora
On a postive note DH has said that we can look at IVF again for a sibling for Charlotte he was always ok with the FET but has said that we can go till the end of 2010 so hopefully I will be preg by Christmas if we start in October lots of calls to make today
Tiggerlinda it seemed to take forever to get David to sleep ended up in bed at 1ish so sounds like we had a similar night. Bubs hadn't slept much during the day though so I think he was overtired by the tiem we got to 7pm.
Phoenix- thanks yes I think that's what we've been lacking atm is perserverence. Might have a look at borders when i'm out today see if there is a book that can help with settling him because he is a good sleeper once he's asleep its just the settling bit.
Of to the gym today, just to use the treadmill to go for a short walk, as its a bit too hilly round us in the dandenongs. But will be bubs first time away from Mum, even if for just half hour or so, and typically i'm probably more worried about it than he is.
Linda that is such great news, i'm so happy for you.
I really hope your preg again by Christmas.
Auzzie have fun at the Gym today :)
Woo Linda! What great news.
It is funny, we had a rough night last night also. Was it a full moon or something?
Auzzie -- good luck today ;)
sorry to hear about the roungh nights darlings! we had a good one!! i slept from 9 till 10:30 whil brett watched susie. then she fed on and of for an hour and a half and was asleep at 12:30...then woke up at 7!! woohooo!!! catching up on thesleep she missed the last couple of days i guess! is funny shes wearing 000 clothes that fit well and she has 000 clothes that are huge! the kmart brand 'hundreds and thousands' is really big!

Im excited about xmas too, i cant wait to dress her up in an chrissy outfit
Linda - thats so exciting, what a great gift that will be if you are pregnant by chrissy
How did you go Auzzie at the Gym?
I cant seem to get Ella to nap in the arvo, she is sleeping great at night and had a good morning sleep but fights it in the afternoon
She has slept 9pm till 6am all week now :dance:
I find a big diff in the sizes too, some of the 00 are huge yet some fit her great
This weather is driving me crazy, we have been stuck in the house all week, lucky my mum is here this week to keep me company
We are going to a movie next week with our mums group, should be fun!
One of my friends says her little boy a month older than Ella uses the potty as she is toilet training him, this sounded so so weird to me :rolleyes:
MrsC_Aussie - let us know how the carrier goes
tiggerlinda - great news about trying for a playmate for Charlotte - that is very exciting!
Our first Christmas with our bubs - we are going to go all out aren't we?!
Not good about the rough night for everyone :(
We had a sleep from 8pm to 2.45am back to sleep by 4am then up at 6am for another feed... Not too bad - it is a shame I don't go to bed at 8pm - could get a big sleep!
kellbell - we sleep in the afternoon and not really in the morning... yawn - good night sleep you guys have been having.
A movie day sounds fantastic, you will love that.
The potty already? Oh my gosh!
auzzie.chick - how was the gym? Feel refreshed?
Thanks everyone, the gym went well. Feeling really resfreshed it was good to have a break from bubs, but boy was I nervous initially. They ended up calling me out to the creche once because they thought he was hungry but turns out he was tired. I've booked him in for friday so at least we'll both get used to it, as I want to go see star trek at the movies and that means leaving him with his nanna for a few hours.
tigerlinda- that's great news about christmas, you must be so excited. i still find the thought of having a 2nd bub a bit daunting at the minute but i think that's just cos we ended up in a emergency caeser so it all felt a bit stressful at the end.
razrock- have you tried a roll-over feed, so trying to feed bubs at 10-11ish and then they might sleep through longer. our mchn suggsted it but we tried it the other night and bubs still woke at 2am :(
kellbell- i find that the sizes do vary quite a bit we're mostly "just" fitting into 00's think we're into O's soon, but then some 00's are quite big. think its like adult clothes varies from store to store and brand to brand.
i've put some books on hold at the library, sleep tight sleep right, save our sleep and no cry sleeping. See if the settling techniques work, my sis has used save our sleep-tizze hall but i don't think the routines would fit our family. has anyone read any of these?
hi all thanks for the excitment it may take awile though to fall preg but 1st appt is booked for july to make the final plans
we got flooded today and i was out so when the road was closed could not get back to home till 6
DD is getting her 2 month jabs tomorrow. Really nervous about it. I know I am going to cry. I have made the appointment in the afternoon so that DF can come too. Don't think I could handle it alone.
I know how you feel Jitterbug, i was a wreck. I was more upset then her, she only cried for a couple of minutes. I gave her baby panadol before we went, dont know if it helped, it made me feel like i was doing something to help her. Good luck with it tommorow
Im so happy to see the sun in brissie again today! Yipee
auzzie.chick - thanks for the rollover feed advice - will try that tonight for sure - it can't hurt to fill him up.
He finished a feed at about 8.10pm then was in bed 10mins after that and slept til about 3am - so that was pretty good, I was in bed by 10pm so had approx 5 hour block... He still likes to wake early after that feed about 6am! So by the time he went back to bed and actually slept it was after 4am, that is the yucky bit, having about 1.5-2hours sleep then he wakes... yawn.
There is a creche at the gym you go to? That is fantastic - so you are only minutes away... love that, although I would still be a bit nervous.
How did everyone elses night go?
I saw the pictures on the Net of the Brisbane floods - oh my gosh! I remember driving the from the Gold Coast to Brisi on the freeway in the rain and having to get off as it is so hard to see and drive - I can't even imagine yesterday!
I don't even want to think about jabs - we had the Tuberculosis jab in the hospital but haven't had any since, we are waiting til Edison gains more weight. There is no way I could go, I would cry! Good luck Good luck!
Kodi had her needles today & did pretty good.
JB hope Immy did well with her needles :)
We are up for jabs next week
I hope everyones bubs went well
We are nice and dry today
Just got back from the jabs. DD went okay. A little squeal and a bit of a cry but settled with a rock/cuddle and then fell asleep in the car on the way home. I still feel kinda awful, it wasn't fun but it wasn't too bad in the end either.
He also weighed her and she is up to 5.2kg which is 600g in 2 weeks. What a guts my little monster is!!
Glad to hear Kodi went well with her needles! Hope everyone else has a trouble free time with theirs.
Hasn't rained at all today which was a bit of a shock after the last two days. My car is nice and shiny from the rain which means I won't have to take it to get cleaned so that is a bonus! I have to park on the street so it is always getting dusty/dirty and being the victim random bird attacks!
glad to hear the lil ones have been doing well with their jabs so far! Susie has hers on the 11th June.
we had a good sleep last night...Susie slept from 12 till i got her up at 6:30(had to take dh to the trsin). then slept from 8 till 10:30 so I got lots of housework done!! i did wake up at 3 though csuse she was spitting up...she didnt wake up though..i picked her up and changed the sheet and put her back down and she was still asleep lol!
she's a really noisy sleeper sometimes though..is everyone elses? grunting and snorting etc lol
we have 6 week appointment with OB at 12 so that'll be fun not..will be having my first ever papsmear :s hope susie stays quiet while i get checked out! was hoping dh would come but he had meetings in melbourne today so couldnt work from hom e :(
hope you all have a good day!!
Charlotte is a grunting queen asleep
Oh yeah Ella is a noisy sleeper thats why shes out of our room :lol:
