LOL sorry Luey, my bad. Jake hardly feeds when out either, too much stuff to look at. We still do a comp feed of 12oml at bedtime, more for my peace of mind
Jake slept until 5am this morning. That's 7:30pm-5am! whooot!
I jumped on here yesterday morning to type the rest of my post, went to hit 'submit' and lost it all cos the website apparently went kaput. Meh.
Laura - Bah humbug about your crappy weekend ... sounds like you should have stayed under the doona. Seriously, when it rains it pours, huh. Hope your week has gone much better. Yay about your two births - how exciting for you!! Really glad to hear you're doing well too ... despite crappy weekends .
Macca - how exciting about trying for #2. We'd like to think we'll have another on the way about this time next year - probably won't even worry about trying till mid next year though. Glad to hear you're doing well with the weight loss ... good for you.
Hayley - how's Ari? Is he sleeping ok again now?
Luey - glad to hear E's appt went well. Wow, eight teeth! Geez, Cam's not showing any sign of teething yet. Just goes to show how different they all are, doesn't it.
Mel - How are you going?
CM - How are you doing? Feeling ok?
Hope everyone else is doing well.
Cam's learned how to clap his hands, that seems to be the 'big' achievement of the week. Oh, and he's been able to sit properly on his own for about the past week. I think he really enjoys viewing the world from a different perspective.
Other than that, it's all quiet on the western front! Catch you all later,
Andie xx
ps: one month till xmas ... where has this year gone
I have been slack again. I always have the best intentions and never get there. See my new avvy too?? It was done super quick, I only sent a request for it this morning! Nic I luuuurve yours!
to Julia and doubletrouble. Nice to have you with us. We used to be a fast moving thread but we all seem to be busy these days....I have no idea why..... As you can probably see in my sig, I am Mum of 3. Jake is my March 08 baby. Not too sure on current stats but I estimate he's around 7.5kg and maybe 68cm. He's the only one of my children to be BF and in cloth nappies. If you want to get a bit more info on me my blog is here, although I've also been slack updating that. Most of us are on Facebook too so if you are interested let us know and we'd all love to add you I'm sure
Well Jake never slept through again didn't expect it though. He's been so great lately, such a busy little man he is always off exploring and seeing what else he can reach and get into. The last couple of days he's added standing alone to his bag of tricks, but only lasts a couple of seconds. He's also stated clapping the last week or so....so cute when he gives himself a clap cos he's done something he's proud of Like his poo escapade the other day......ewww!!! Anybody see that on my blog?? Be warned it may be TMI, especially for your delicate tummy catherine!
Catherine how are you coping with the m/s and Flynn? the nappies are the nastiest part for sure. I also remember finding it hard to feed Ben his mushed veggies (he was around 5/6 months when I was in the throes of m/s) cos they made me wanna gag! Having m/s all day isn't easy either, it's downright depressing really. Have you found anything you can manage to get down?? There's usually at least one thing you can take to.
Macca i'm glad Will is feeling better. How are you doing with your mush?
Julia, was reading over your routine and wanting to reduce BF and was wondering are you still going to BF when you are back at work or are you wanting to wean him? If he won't take a bottle will he take a sippy cup or something?
Andie, I can understand your feelings on going back to work. Especially when you feel the decision is out of your hands. It's ok if it's what you want but when you can't decide for yourself it can be hard to come to terms with. TBH Cam isn't going to suffer from going to daycare, and at that age he will probably really enjoy the interactions with others. you are still providing for him just in a more material way yk? It is my belief (I know others don't feel the same) that kids really benefit from time away from parents early on, it teaches them so much independence and best of all they learn you will always come back to them. And that look they get when you walk into the room and the cuddles you get will be some of the best in your life.
Nina, I haven't had a chance to go through all your professional pics yet but they look amazing! you've had such an exciting time this year!!
Luey, how are those teeth going? lol Yay E on the crawling, and yes, child proofing!!!
Hi Mel!! How's James doing? Growing so much! And how's your ankle, i forget to ask!
Hayley, I still have something here to post, just too lazy to go to the PO! Will do it soon for you though. How's the sewing going?
I KNOW I've missed someone...darn it! I give up Reenie, no reply to all my shoutouts :P
All is going really well here, DH and I are great at the moment, and the effects are flowing into other areas of our relationship too . Having a second look at the first house we looked at in this new area on the weekend. Expect we will make an offer on it. We need to get moving cos Ben starts Kinder next year so by the time we sign any contract and wait out settlement and move we will be cutting it fine to be settled before then.
