Woohoo...Joshua was just giggling and laughing for the first time sooo cute! He has been smiling for a couple of weeks now but this is the first time I heard him laugh.
hi ladies, sorry not up to personals its been a very emotional week, i wont go into details cause its very upsetting but if any of you have seen the pregnancy after stillbirth and loss thread this week will understand.
do you think our little ones feel our stress, cause ever since about saturday last week joeys been quite unsettled, he's just starting to settle now, we even managed a 6 hour sleep last night.
jodi thanks for askign, we had another check on tuesday with the MHN and he put on another 500grams in 10 days, so thats pretty good I'm thinking, must be due to last weekends 2 hourly comfort feeds. we have the laughing starting too, except that today it was in to mid air, i was thinking maybe his angel sister was there making him laugh.
anyway sorry for not saying much but i really should be resting as jo jo is asleep, not sure i will be on much for about the next 6 weeks as we have my sister and her family visiting from overseas, so take care everyone and give your little ones an extra special cuddle and kiss from me.
Klee - I am so very sorry about Mel's little Joshua.. Its just so unfair. Losing bubs while pregnant has broken my heart and I just can't imagine how totally destroying it would be to have been able to hold her beautiful son and give wings to all those hopes and dreams, only to have him so cruelly taken from her. Strength and love to you for tomorrow - it will be a very, very tough day. I'm holding my little girls a bit closer today.
klee - that's so tragic for mel & her dh. I will be thinking of them today @ 1pm, and also beyond that.
As for stress, yes, they can definitely pick up on it. I know it's hard not to be stressed and upset during this difficult time, but try and relax as much as you can while you're feeding or holding him.
And how cute that he's giggling at his angel sister! Nina used to look up at the ceiling in her room, and smile or giggle at it. There was nothing there, so I was thought she had an angel there with her.
We had a good weekend. Was very busy, we were hardly home, but it was good. Nina has broken out in spots since yesterday, so off to the dr today to see what it is. I hope Emily doesn't get whatever it is. I really don't want to have 2 sick kids right now.
Emily woke up twice last night. Which is unlike her. She had quick feeds then went straight back to sleep. So I'm a little more tired than usual. And Nina woke at 7am, which is very early for her. Usually it's around 8.30.
klee - so very sorry to hear about mel thinking of you all xx
jodi - hopefully nina's spots are nothing. Josh also woke up twice last night - at 2am and then 4am but both were quick feeds and he only wanted the one side, then he was up at 7am.
Got him weighed today and he's put on 80g...i'm starting to accept that he is just not a big/fast weight gainer. We bought him a cradle swing on the weekend, just so he can sit in something that gives him a good view of everything...he seems to love it so far.
Klee- So sorry to hear about Mel my thoughts to you all.
Amelie had had two bad nights in a row waking at 10pm, 2am, 4am then 6:30am so feeling very tired and I have been looking after my DH 8 year old foster brother and DH is away AGAIN! But only for 1 night so hoping to catch up on sleep today.
Laranna- Amelie also has a swing thing and she loves it.
