Hows everybody going, must be a busy time of year for everyone.
We are getting excited about Ellas first Christmas, we took her to her first carols by candlelight last night and she had a great time.
She tried to take a step between the lounge and the table of course she fell straight down but i cant believe she wants to walk already
Eight weeks till i go back to work :shakehead: so not ready yet!
KB - Yes it seems everyone has been busy eh!
It is so daunting going back to work. Do you have to go back full time? I am working 1 1/2 days now and will build up to 3 days by Feb. Under my nurse award I can have 2 years part time and not lose my contracted full time position.
Go Ella with the walking!
Tirion is similar at the mo. She is trying to stand alone and walks around all the furniture. Too soon I say!!!!:D
Yes im a nurse too, so going to go back three days a week to start with and see how it goes. Id love to stay home forever but we need my wage to survive.
I cant really complain getting paid for a year to be with my bubba, ive loved every minute of it.
My partner says we can try again for bub no 2 in a couple of months :dance:
Kell & Bron what kinda a nurses are you both?
Not a real lot happening here, K had a few what we think were seizures, She had an EEG today & we get the results back next week.
Hoping like crazy it was nothing serious.
We are off to NSW & maybe QLD next week, It will be my 1st Christmas in 10yrs that i get to spend with my sister, nieces & nephews.
Thought we might drive up to QLD to see Phil's dieing Grandpa, just depends on how the girls go with the trip to NSW.
Mo, i just saw your FB update and came in to see if Kodi is ok. Far out! that must have been frightening. Did she have a virus? or it was just out of the blue? Hope all is ok. xxxxxx
While i'm here, we're great. Sas is a little ratbag. ;) She finally has 2 teeth! She stood up in the middle of the room on her own today and isn't too far off walking. :o She climbed up a slide in a play centre today and gave me a heart attack!
Might try and pop in a little more often. :redface:
Sounds like Sas keeps you on your toes, can't believe she wants to start walking already. How's miss L doing?
I'm so bummed we won't be able to catch up b4 u leave, promise you'll keep in touch by fb!
I do love the new avi & u/n, it really suits you xxx
There were no signs it was a virus & each episode happened within 10 mins of her waking. I really hope it was a virus, either way if the EEG comes back normal & she has another episode she has to have an MRI. We haven't had anymore for 9 days now so fingers crossed it stays that way.
Yep it was scary, she wouldn't respond to her name or anything for that matter.
mo that is really scary!!!!! i hope it is nothing as well! let us know the results when you get them.
glad to hear all the bubs are doing well.
it sux having to go back to work hey! i'm not going to go back until hannah is in school.. hopefully! cant afford to really cause the day care fees are crazy and dont have anyone living close by to baby sit. just stick with the tupperware as longas i can i guess.
chelsea has stood by herself for a second too. so not long til she is walking either.
merry christmas everyone
Hello, can I join this Baby Buddies group? DD was born 27th March this year.
Is anyone else having sleep dramas? I'd love to know what your bubs are up to. DD is almost 9 months, crawling, cruising the furniture & crying / sitting up / standing in cot every nap & bedtime. I need some ideas from others going through the same thing!
Merry Christmas!
Hi winter,
I've not been terribly active in here, but going to try and rectify that! We've just had a couple of months of sleep issues. Down to waking hourly. :o But miraculously things seem to be on the improve. This is a notorious age for separation anxiety.
My little chicken has an ear infection so she's not too happy at the moment!
What's it like at the north pole?
Hi JungleMum,
North Pole is very busy at this time of year, but the good news is that the Elf is asleep!
How's the Jungle? Tarzan behaving? ;)
Merry Christmas to all the mums & bubs.
Welcome Winter, we also had sleep issues but are back to sleeping through the night now.
K's results came back all clear as well :D
I missed this Mo! That is awesome news. Thank goodness. :hug: hope you're having a great holiday.
Tarzan definitely NOT behaving winter. In fact he is over roaming in the jungle while i hold up the fort at home most of the time! ;)
Girls good here. sleeping going ok. how you going winter? that elf behaving?
Hello Baby Buddies :D
Things are going pretty okay here. Still not a great sleeper but I'm so used to it now haha. We are up 3-5 times a night so not terrible. Immi has 6 teeth and I think another two are breaking through. We are still feeding quite frequently - at least 7 times a day. She has taken to food well, feeds herself all meals and tries everything.
Merry belated Christmas xo
We only have 2 teeth jb! :) 6 already, that's great. I'm not looking forward to the top ones. i remember them being difficult last time!
We're feeding about that much too, maybe a little less since her sleep has improved.
What do you give her for breaky? i forget what finger foods are good...... she has toast but i also give her porridge. She tries with the spoon but we have about a 10% target rate. :lol:
We also only have 2 teeth, K is also standing by herself for a few seconds. K is a great eater but still loves her boobie So we are still feeding fairly often.
K follows M everywhere, you always hear them playing in her room laughing, i can tell they will be very close when they get older.
hey guys,
sorry i have been MIA around here been busy with the tupperware thing, the kids and christmas. very exciting today chelsea took 6 steps! wont be long til she prefers walking to crawling and we wont know what hit us!
glad to hear everyone is well and the bubs are growing well. they will be 1 year old before we know it!
take care
Hey everyone!
We are back in Oz - had a great time but it's so good to be home. We had a nice christmas and spent every day in the pool and at the beach. Alexandra has eaten quite a bit of sand! It was quite funny watching her face when she walked on the grass and sand for the first time. We are having a pretty terrible time with teething at the moment. 5 teeth and counting. The top ones seem to be giving her the most trouble.
I can't believe how quickly time is going - my mum bought Alexandra's b'day present in the after christmas sales
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all!!
Have had a lovely celebratory time and glad to have a break from entertaining now.
DH and I celebrated our anniversary yesterday in a hot air balloon.
Tirion is standing briefly unaided. She cut three teeth - 2 top front teeth and one bottom - all over new years.
Still bf 4 or 5 times a day most days. Eating OK but not huge amounts.
I have looked at a few forums on-line re weaning and no. of bfs etc for her age. One lady was feeding her baby heaps of food as well as heaps of milk feeds. Most said they feed 3 times a day and cut back to 2 by 12 months. Any other ideas?
Hollo - Chelsea is a tricky chicken nugget with the walking already!
Mo - I'm so pleased to hear all is well with kodi. I am a Psych nurse by trade but work with Mental health and drug and alcohol services. I forget a lot of general health details.
FF - glad you are back and had a good Christmas
Winter - welcome. T sleeps through most nights now but wakes awefully early sometimes like 5.30am and wants to play. I put her in the portacot in our ensuite and let her grizzle but she soon stops and plays on her own til she falls asleep again.
KB - I knew you were a nurse also. What is your specialty?
I'm back at work tomorrow:shakehead:
