Poor jazz is unwell. She has the runs. filled 4 nappies in half an hour!

I havent even been able to get dressed coz I've been trying to help her.

Shell could DJ have thrush? Does he have white in his mouth? They were talking about it in Mothers Group and if not treated in their mouth it goes to their bum and starts off as spots around the hole then spreads into a butterfly shape. She said the best way to see if it is def thrush as apparently Dr's misdiagnose it regularly is to put olive oil on a cotton tip and wipe the white bits and if it is sore looking underneath then it's thrush but if it looks normal under it isn't. Just a thought.

Jade, you must be so tired, he takes after mummy staying up all night when you were pg playing games hehehe

Mothers Group is going well it takes an hour just going around the room asking how everyone's week was, Summer has put on 200g in a week and is now 57cm she is growing so fast. She has gone back to sleepy mode, she had a growth spurt last week and was pretty unsettled so is now catching up on some zzz.

DH is coming home early which is good, he has been so busy and is really keen to be home and not living out of a suitcase and eating out every meal. Summer will probably look so big to him when he sees her.

SJ Hope your day was ok yesterday, i was thinking of you and your family, you are right Molly Jane would have brought a bit of happiness on a sad day.

Teach, Sumz loves being naked too except when it is cooler, on a hot day she loves being completely naked she has a look of sheer bliss on her face... So cute! At least i don't have to worry about the little hose that Patty has.

I'm off to enjoy my last hour of peace before the crazy afternoon starts, Paige and Tahnie have soccer training so 2 hours of sitting in the mozzy infested soccer grounds YAY.

Trina - good point on DJ possibly having thrush. I did notice after feeding him once he had alot of white in his gum area, thought it was just leftover from his feed. Hubby has him at the moment trying to settle him down to sleep so I will check before I feed him again later this afternoon. I bought some canestan while I was out and some inner health plus because I have also had some gas myself so I wasn't sure if I was the cause of DJ's gas haha Doesn't hurt to give it a try. The redness around his bum is like a butterfly shape as well so I have a feeling you are right. I am very susceptible to getting thrush, even while pregnant so it wouldn't surprise me if he had thrush. Did the mothers group suggest ways to treat thrush in babies??? I might check out my a-z illness book thing I gotat the baby shower.

I bought a new breastfeeding pillow so will let you all know if it works, I tried it on and feels comfortable, so hopefully it will be comfy while breastfeeding so I can breastfeed alot more Shall see......

It was soooo nice to get out today, also saw one of my friends who is scheduled for a c-section on Friday so that is very exciting

Anyway girls, better go can hear DJ crying.

Well DH is home from work now. Thankgod!!!!
He's working tomorrow morning but is off in the afternoon and is going to take Friday off for me and Thursday, Saturday, Sunday are rostered days off so we'll have 4 days of him at home to help me recover a bit so i can go it alone again next week hehe.

He did actually sleep much better today and also at around 1ish he pooed mid changing a nappy so i had to change his suit and i got a size 00 summer one (he's been wearing 000 wondersuits lately) and he seemed to settle much better after that so i'm wondering if he hasn't been uncomfortable in his clothes

Anywho DH is taking Ryan off me so i've gotta take this opportunity to run off and hide in the bedroom for a little while.
