WOW you ladies have been chatty... weekends are a bit difficult for mr to get in ad DP b!tches that i'm talking to my other family,,, HAHAHA...

Went to the markets and brought some plants and yesterday we did the garden... Gosh it was hot... My head is sunburnt... (where my part in my hair is) ... need to wear a hat...

Girl22- Dont be silly, we love having you and anyone else popping in... as you can see we are all just blabbers... hehe feel free to pop in as little or as much as you like... I dont have a walker as we have heaps of carpet and i thought DD would hurt herself trying to move it (hard enough to slide the computer chair on the carpet) We have a jolly jumper for the same purpose as to give her a different view of things, also i use the highchair and the swing anything different is good for her.

Bec- I know what you mean about ear pearcing singing... My gosh but SOOOO sute at the same time... she's also started doing this goofy sounding half a$$ed laugh... with like a cough in it... cracks everyone up when she does it... She's laughing like that at people and also when everyone else laughs she does too like she gets the joke... YAY on the farex. Alot of us had constipation issues with farex so just keep an eye on that but i dont see an issue offering it again... DD was 6.05kg's at 4 month needles... she's bigger now (havent weighed her in a while but i'm pretty sure she'll be bigger then cam...

NaNa- still dont know what caused the rash... its gone again now... quite worrying expecially cos its like needle pr!cks all over his face and neck. DD is SO different from DS. He fed every 2 hours morning and night till 4 months then started having bigger day sleeps but still no longer then 2 hours at night. never really made noises except grunts, not really interested or bothered by anyone would go to ANYONE, never crawled early walker. DD seems to love the communication (wonder where she gets that ) very inquisitive, is a mummies girl wont go to anyone, rolls over and moves round (DS did the same) DD has just started lifting her knees while on her tummy like she's going to crawl but cant get the arms going yet.

Miss-YAY on stanky being so good for you... DD actually prefers to be out and about also. Your right about the walking on toes...

I used the walker with ds and it was a real issue... when he did start walking it was on tippy toes and we had to start him with heavier shoes earlier to correct it. The only advice i can give with the walkers is that you have them lower to the ground to bubs is flat footed and not stretching their feet to touch the floor which promotes the tippy toe walking. (dont make it too low that bubs pushes of the ground and lifts up out of the seat either as it can topple the walker over. same with the JJ, have to have them at just the right height. Also with bubs back muscles not fully developed and having them use the muscles early we have been told it can cause curviture of the spin. Having said that i dont see why 10 mins every few days would be too bad. But i have heard numerous people including chiro's, GP, peads, other mums etc warn people off of them. Walking to early can also cause bowed legs and it isnt easily corrected. I use our JJ for about 10 minutes about once a week if that. best thing for bubs back and neck is tummy time.

Abb- i think that with the 2 solids a day plus 4 BF with both sides that it does seem like its enough now... I guess i'm just used to 2 so far that feed and feed... i'm sure that if he's having plenty of wet and dirty nappies then things will be fine... when you get him weight you'll know... DD is only having 1 side a feed and will feed for MAX 15-20 mins but its usually more like 10 mins if that. were doing the ocasional solid feed ( mainly when i think DD is still hungry or is a bit grumpy) SOme days she wants it othersrefuses (just like the bottle ) I'm sure if he wasnt getting enough he's be letting you know... YAY on the awesome sleeping too.. thats great... wish little miss was back to sleeping... she's still waking at night and now wont settle again without that feed. but oh well...

Well best be off, have to do my Wii fit this morning.
