Hi All, thought our 12 week appointment was tomorrow but looks like there was a mix up and had to make a new appintment for next week. Not sure what Tiahna weight but looking forward to finding out ...
Sarah H... WOW Juliette must be loving mummies milk... She may be a chubber but at least she's happy and healthy... My son was always a chubber untill he started to move round. Then the baby fat just fell off...
I Did the shopping today, used the baby carrier instead of the sling... (more lower back support) Tiahna slept the whole time. She lasted the whole time and only woke up when i took her out and put her in the car. Came home she was playing for a bit i fed her had more play time for about an hour Now she's been asleep for an hour and a half.. her best day sleep ever and not being held or in the sling.
Sass- I'm thinking of telling work i need more time... DOnt know how ur doing it already... I'm struggling with my 2 let alone other ppls kids. Good to hear Jayda is feeding better...
Abb- i'm still too chicken to take DD in the shower... She hates the bath since i stopped the daily baths... Now were doing it every few days and she screams the house down... She arches her bach kicks and i'm worried she'll do the same in the shower. I'm regretting cutting the baths down now as she used to really enjoy them, hopefully its just a faze.
Is anyone else's bubs rolling over yet??? I have to be careful now, I used to put Tiahna on the lounge to sleep but now she's rolling and moving so much i'm worried she'll fall off. Also if i sit her up a little she can now pull her self up a little more. Yeasterday DP sat her up against the curved pillow and she pulled herself up more andflopped over to her legs... (obviously she's willing but her back still isnt strong enough) I checked DS's blue book and he was rolling at 3 1/2 months so Tiahna is a little ahead of him. I found out she has a few ticklish spots and laughts the house down when she's tickles. She loves to play with my hair alot especially when feeding, also loves touching my face... Its great, were really bonding now with feeds. I'm feeling the let down more and i really think the Bfing is going well... (I was only doing 2 feeds by this stage with DS.
Hope everyone else is well, i'm off to have some adult time with DP while the kids are both sleeping
Jess wow at Tiahna nearly rolling what a clever little girl. Take all the time you need before going back to work if you can afford to. I would love to stay home longer if I could
Sarah WOW at Juliettes weight, she is doing brilliantly and so are you with the feeding well done.
Sassy glad to hear Jayda is taking the bottle now, that would be a big releif for you
Abb excellent news on the full night sleep. What a good boy Hamish is to let his mummy get some rest.
Well I have to go back to work monday. I got my dates wrong and my maternity leave has run out so if I dont go back now as we are paid fortnightly I wont get paid for a month.... that so cant happen. So I will be back at work monday which I am ok with. I knew it was going to happen soon anyway. DH is rapted as he starts his paternity leave a day early, he finishes work on thursday.
I will now work mon tues friday and saturday. Next week I wont be working on tuesday as I have no one to look after the boys but then i will be back to my regular roster.
Liam went from 8 - 4.30 this morning. I was rapted. my boobs were so full though. We are staying on reg feed times of around 7am in the morning which is good as I need to be at work by 8 and its a 1/2 hr drive.
Have a good weekend everyone. we have 3rd bday and housewarming tomorrow so will be a busy day
OMG- Last night sat Tiahna up in the corner of the lounge with the curved pillow while DP and i watched the footy. Next thing i know she's laughing so i look next to me and she sitting up all by herslef (i know it was with the assistance of the pillow) but she had managed to lift a little more so she wasnt laying on it. I was quick to put her back on the pillow as it is way to early. I was totally freaked out. DP was amazed she was just sitting there laughing at the footy. (think she'll be a Daddies girl watching the footy on his lap )
I fnd the best time when Tiahna rolls is no nappy time... Think it frees her legs a bit more... she goes to her sideputs the top leg right over the bottom one and arches her back and flops over... LOL.
We had an excellent night Tiahna slept from 8.45 til 7 this morning... FAN-bloody-TASTIC... Just wish i could have had a better night sleep myself... Everytime she sleeps well i'm tossing and turning.
Deancey- about going back to work... But i guess we have to do what we have to do... Its great that ur DH is taking Paternity leave... My kids will have to be in care. . Yay on Liams sleep... IKWYM about the full (Pornstar) bobs.... Mine looked great this morning (said DP) but OMG were they sore and heavy...Hope u have a great day with the party and housewarming...
I actually had a chance to clean the house yesterday. Tiahna had a 2hr Day sleep... if i can get that every day this house will never be a mess again... Its so great to get 2 hrs of solid clean time instead of 15 mins here and there. Well best be off have washing to hang, and dishes to unpack while little miss is blabbering to her big Brother.
well we had a nice day today we didnt make it to the housewarming the boys were feral and tired after the park. Jordan run around for over 2 hrs and was asking to go to bed, he fell asleep in the way home. Liam didnt slept much at all so was feral and overtired when we got home so had battle to get him to sleep. We didnt want to cause further stress and take them out again so we stayed home.
I am now all ready for work tomorrow. Everything packed for expressing and alarm set. Lets hope Liam feeds co incide to me needing to leave for work. He fed at 6.30 so I am hoping he will wake around 2-3 and then again between 6-7. that would be perfect. Or he could go straight thru to 6 and that would be even better but I am not holding my breath for that.
So will fill you in on the day at work tomorrow night.
take care
Morning
Well im glad my 3 days of work are over, It was fairly tiring as all three nights i worked Hamish woke at around 4 each time, i was just getting use to him sleeping all night and now he is waking again. Oh well i am just glad i only work 2 days this week and not until thursday so i have a few days rest.
Deancey - Good luck with work, it is hard getting back in the swing of things again, but also good to feel a little human getting back in the world again. I enjoy a few hours at work but will enjoy it more when i go back to 2 days this week i hope.
Jess - its great when they sleep longer during the day, hamish has one sleep for around 3 hours and its amazing how much you get done and sometimes i even have a bit of me time to relax. Hamish can also sit very well, he has a very strong neck, i think he will sit before he rolls.
Sass - glad to hear jayda is improving with feeding, lets hope it was just a fussy stage.
I best be off to get some washing done, it seems never ending in this house.
well i think my liitle poo my be starting to teeth. with her bottles she is more interested in chewing on the teat. also she has discovered her hands the last week and is very strong and tries to play with the bottle and when she does this it pushes it out of her mouth.
abb: jayda is starting to sleep through (i hope) last night she went from 930 to 5 this morning. but she usually wakes at 330. wow about the sittin. jayda can sit for a few secs then falls forward, she tried to pull her self up abit when we lean hear sittin against things which usually makes her end up on her face lol.
wat age do they usualy start sittin up is it around now or is that a bit early? i only have my nephew to compare jayda too but he was a very lazy bub and everyone carried him everywhere and held him and done everythign for him.
jayda is gettin into 00 now and 0 wonder suits. i hope she slows down soon. i had so much 000 stuff and half of it she never wore bit of a waste. so i have decided to not buy so much stuff from now on lol. it is so hard everytime i go out i see new cute stuff, especilly now with all the new summer stuff coming out. also it will be good when i can judge wat she will be the following yr so i can buy stuff when they r on sale at the end of the season.
jess: yay on bubs sittin up. everytime i get excited about jayda doing something she doesnt do it again liek her rolling over. yay on the nice boobs lol, my r all flat and droopy lol.
we took photos of jayda and her cuz on the weekend they r 7 weeks apart but tegan was 4 weeks premmy and jayda looks sooooooooooo huge. she doesnt look like a baby anymore i nearly cried. looks liek ill have to have another one so i got a little bubby lol. dont let DH read this or he will hide from me for the next few yrs lol.
Deancey- Hope ur 1st day back to work went well... and hope the boys let u get organised and off to a smooth start.
Abb- Tiahna had a few days of waking again but noticed the more day sleep she got the less overnight sleep she needed. I find if she has a big sleep at about 10-12/1 pm then she has a smaller sleep at 3.30-5 then we start dinner, baths, play and booby then play while we eat dinner then booby and both kids to bed at 8-8.30. this way she'll sleep til 6.30-7am. maybe 1 wake up at about 4am.
might have to fiddle a bit with his timing of sleeps and feeds to get the right mix so u get a good night... good luck...
Sass- Tiahnais in 00 but some pants a shirts are still 000. all in 1 suits are 00 now... IKWYM about clothes .... my first i brought tonnes of clothes this time i had 0000 and 000 and then few 00 and 0 i wasnt sure what size she'd be by summer so now i can get few summer outfits in 0's (dont matter if there a bit big... ) they have some gorgeous little dresses and outfits 4 summer.... cant wait. Also i'm sure that if all of us on her got together with our bubs that they would all be different size... i wouldnt worry too much... i think its much better thinking bubs is bigg then worrying that there not putting on enough weight.
