Hi all, sorry i have been MIA for wow few days... LOL... Tiahna has been quite unsettled during the day... She's had bright red cheeks and sucking and well grinding her gums on her hands... Think she may be teething... thought it was a little soon but a friend of mine who had a baby boy 3 weeks older said issac got 2 bottom teeth at 8 weeks. I put up with it on monday but yesterday it was just screaming and screaming, she's feeding constantly and comes off and screams then wants more. I gave her panadol and within 1/2 hour she was sound asleep. Although the constant crying and screaming during the day helps her sleep at night. monday night she slept from 8.30-8am then last night she slept from 9-8. cant complain except it does ur head in to have them screaming all day...
The colic is now back with avengance. poor darling is having issues burping again so am thinking of looking into an osteopath or chiropractor (spl) i heard they really help with reflux and colic???
NaNa- have been drinking the Aktavite since sarah H mentioned it last time i had supply isues but still not helping... last time i took the maxalon 3 a day for only 3 days and my milk was back up to normal... My prob is i dont drink much normally and i'm struggling to drink enough water i think. i have a glass every feed and a double mug size of weak tea in the morning. morning tea i drink a large glass of the aktivite milk recepie and another 1/2 hour before bed. Glad Aadididnt have any reaction to the immunisation. Tiahna screamed bad aswell she also had a touch of the runs after too... poor darls. Also Africa sounds great.. no holidays for us... mortgage payments enough and small reno's ATM...
Deancey- Tiahna was also sleeping at wrong times... she'd sleep from 3-8pm so now i wake her up after an hour let her play til she gets cranky bath her about i try to have her fed before we eat about 5.30-6.30 and let her play for as long as she can then i get her changed and feed her usually at about 9.30 and put her in the basinette to self settle...
Abb- tiahna is also making me feel like a dairy cow... feedingevery 2 hours during the day... i know i'm VERY lucky with the night sleeps but i pay for it during the day... she's full on and all she wants is to be held and fed. she throws herself around and cries, if you dont pick her up she screams the house down... she refuses to feed from a bottle still and refuses to go to DP or anyone else... its quite hard...
I have purchansed every type of bottle i can tommy tippee(TT) (the close to nature) pigeon (same teats as the TT) Mam, Nuk, cheapo's, anti colic, advent, and about 1/2 dozen more that i can remember but Tiahna still wont drink from them. i go back to work in December and would still love to breast feed but if she wont drink from the bottle i dont know what i'll do... DP wants me to take extra time off... DS always comes home sick from school so doesnt want her to be sick so young.... Thinking maybe i'll add the last few months i'm allowed to my leave and go back in april??? not sure yet... i'd love to stay home with her but know if its not now it'll be later...
