It still seems like there are problems with this site still (or maybe its my computer, or a combination of both). Cameron will probably wake any moment, so I won't do personals at the moment.
Had a strange couple of days. Yesterday we were woken to Cameron crying at 3.30am. It took me a moment to adjust, as he hasn't done that in about 8 weeks. He seemed to settle, but started crying again after 10mins. Both DH and I went into his room, and to our surprise Cameron legs and arms were dangling out the side of the cot (between the bars). He has done this before, but he is usually only dangling his legs out, like he's turned 90 degrees, but this time he was still long ways, with the arms out to (IYKWIM). He just looked strange. But it wasn't until DH picked Cameron up, that we realised that he was also on his tummy! We turned him around, rewrapped him (as he always unravels himself anyway) and Cameron smiled and went back off to sleep til about 6.30am.
So I guess has now worked out how to roll onto his tummy, shall mark it in his record book. I could see it coming, as he quite often gets on his sides, but he obviously pushed himself too far this time. I wonder how long he might have been like that, as he is getting use to tummy time. Occasionally I've put him down to sleep during the day on his tummy, as he sleeps for longer this way. Only do it during the day though, so I can keep an eye on him.
Then this morning he woke at 5am, just as DH left for work. I went in, he had a very wet nappy, I changed him and rewrapped him and once again went off to sleep til 7am. It has been a strange few days, I wonder what tomorrow will bring.
Because Cameron had kinda tangled himself in the rails and it gave me a bit of a fright, yesterday I went and bought one of those venting air wraps for his cot. This morning (at 7am) he was kicking his feet again the side again (turned 90 degrees again), so probably could have had the same problem if I hadn't bought it.
Well better go see what other housework I can do, Cameron's still sleeping, usually only sleeps for an hour during the day, so far we are at 1 1/2 hours (I got him on his tummy).
I'd actually went to post the above at 12.45 today, luckily I'd copied it as it doesn't seem to have posted (even though when I submitted the reply twice, it told me it was being duplicated, can't even see 1 post let alone 2), I'd saved it somewhere else when I couldn't see it.
Had to wait til I put Cameron back to bed, as been busy playing, talking, crying then feeding. He seems to be crying and screaming just before I feed him at lunchtime - this is after a good sleep (close to 2hours sleep), a little awake time (bout 10 - 20 mins is the usual routine). He is ok until I lay him to feed, I then sit him up, talk to him and bounce him on my knee then he is ok, so I try to feed him again, he starts to cry (tears and all). He's done this for the last couple of weeks, usually at the 3rd and 4th feed, never any problems though at the 1st or 2nd feed of the day. Usually it only lasts 20mins, but today it took 1hour to get to feed him. Occassionally I've got him an express bottle (didn't today, as only have frozen expressed milk left which would take to long to prepare), which he usually takes without fuss, but I think that's because I put him in his cot while I get it ready and he is crying - possibly wearing himself out. Eventually after he has fed he is fine, happy - smiling, talking and wanting to play. Any ideas to try or what are your routines for the day?
Also when he was crying it gave me a good chance to see in his mouth, as I have a feeling he may be teething, mainly the rosy cheeks, little extra drool (not overly to much though) and seems to gnaw on his fingers (and mine when he gets hold of it). I thought I could see a little white dot on his bottom gum. I'll check it again tonight and get DH to see what he thinks. Maybe this is why he is more unsettled in the afternoon? Could the aching of the teeth happen at certain part of the day? Which in our case seems to be almost every afternoon (particularly lunchtime).
