hi all,
the party was great fun! hannah had such a good time. the weather was greta. its usually cold and windy this time of year but yesterday was on the warm to hot side! :-)
MRsC- i think breastfed bubs just go through stages of feeding. sometimes they are feeding 3 hourly sometimes hourly. i just kinda think you gotta go with the flow. its not usual that you run out of supply (so i;m told) so you just have to perservere.
having said that, i am very FRUSTRATED and tired. chelsea seems to be having one of those periods. last night she fed hourly and then woke up at 6am! but in between feeds she was so resltess and fidgety that i got hardly any sleep! i am just thinking to myself.. its a phase, its a phase, it will get better! LOL
jitterbug- i hear ya on the hair thing.. chelsea is still a baldy. well she has a fine fuzz now and it is really light/gingery so from a distance she looks bald!
i hear ya on the house cleaning thing too, i get so sick of doing the same chores everyday!
we are going to the immunologist today to see if hannah is still allergic to egg. hope she has grown out of it!
Hollo happy birthday to Hannah & hope she grown out of her allergy to egg
MrsC if you think your supply really is going down you can try taking Fengugreek to boost it, but i'd give it a couple of days to see if Susie settles easier.
JB We use to have guitar hero's but we sold our Wii to get a PS3, so now we just singstar lol
Maddi loves hearing herself on the mic!
Ear infection is back, Ella is on some ear drops now, i feel like
I wish i could take away her pain for her
Also found out today my single unemployed sister is law who still lives with my MIL at home is booked in for IVF as she wants a baby, i dont know how to feel about it. She hasnt worked for years yet our system lets her go and have IVF, and then shell be on even more welfare. She is hoping for triplets, i think the whole thing is wrong but i like her as person and want to be supportive. Sorry for the vent
Happy birthday to Hannah, has she grown out of her allergy to egg?
just a quick update, Susue slept an 8 hour block again last night yay - cept i woke up at 5 and couldnt get back to sleep for ages rofl. but milk was back in so much she didnt even finish the first side at her first feed to back to normal yay! I have started haing oats for breakfast and made anzac cookie as I heard that can help as well but I think most of the credit goes to Susie's suckling!!
Imogen is 5 months old today! Crazy to think about. Just one more month and she will have been here for half a year. 9 months will be an interesting milestone... longer out than in!
Good to hear, MrsC.
That's adorable, Mo! A little diva in the making
Sorry to hear about Ella's ear infection, hope she is feeling better soon, kellbell.
Glad the party went well, Hollo. Hope it is good news about the egg alergy.
just quickly, hannah didnt have a reaction to this egg test. the doc said though to still wait a year until giving her pure egg because there is a range of reaction that the test doesnt pick up.. if that makes sense. but generally after a negative reaction to the skin pr*ck test they are good to go after a year! so YAY!
We had a really good weekend, caught up with friends on Saturday and then my Nonna (grandma) was in Brisbane yesterday so she met Alexandra for the first time. She was so excited DP thought she was gonna wet her pants It's her first great grandchild. We went to her friends place for lunch and i haven't had so much food in a long time. They are italian so there was appetisers and alcohol, then pasta (lasagne and ravioli) and more wine then roast meat and vegies and then watermelon and fruits and homemade dessert alcohol. I only had a few sips of this stuff called lemoncello - almost 50% alcohol.
I have started putting Alexandra in her cot to sleep because i am sick of cosleeping, i want to be able to sleep on my back or on my other side without having to worry about where she is. So the last 3 nights instead of feeding to sleep i have put her in her cot and she has self settled!
kellbell - i hope ella's ear infection clears up for good this time, my sister used to get them really bad all the time when she was little and had to have grommits. Alexandra hasn't been sick yet and i am dreading just the thought of it. What does the rest of your family think about your SIL having IVF?
MrsC - glad to hear that Susie's feeding is back to normal, Hollo - hope that Chelsea is back to normal super quick too
JB - are your gums all better now from your wisdom teeth? I had 3 taken out a few years ago and my jaw locked up and i couldn't even get a spoon between my teeth to eat jelly or custard. Had to settle for lots of mashed potato and KFC potato and gravy on a fork. I have one left to come out but have been putting it off for about a year
