Jess - how scary bout your neighbours being robbed. I remember many years ago, one of my neighbours was robbed - it was at night though and I thought I'd heard something outside, I looked out the window couldn't see anything so went back to sleep, not thinking anymore of it especially as they had a rottweiler (even though it was more of a gentle giant - would lick you to death before it bit). Felt a little guilty and freaked the next day when we found out. How's Tiahna with the cucumber afterwards? I'm a little hesitant on giving Cameron cucumber, as it seems to upset my tummy.
NaNa - Glad Aadi's needles went well. We are doing ours on Saturday (as long as Cameron's ok for it), did it this way so DH could hold him- I'm a sook, got a bit light headed myself before last needles. Anyway I'm going to be having my own needle, decided to get that whooping cough booster. Yay on only the 1 wake up, even it was a messy one.
Sassy - Yeah I've been a little nervous giving the finger food too, but might also give it a go next week. With Cameron's cough he seems to get a bit of a tickle and if it's after he's eaten or drank - he sometimes seems a bit choaked when he is throwing up, so don't think it's a good idea while he's not well. We've also had some messy chucks, like yesterday after his carrot - i wasn't sure where to start, clean Cameron, hi chair, floor, me??? Wasn't it hot last night and even worse I think today. I don't have any blankets or sheets in Cameron's cot, only the fitted sheet on the mattress. I found he'd move around his cot too much and was also scared of him covering his head with it. On cooler nights I was wrapping him, but I think those nights might be over now.
Abb - Good on Hamish for being a good sleeper. Cameron's good too most of the time. Think it was his tooth for the last few weeks minor wake ups.
Deancey - I work at the CBA, have been with them for 9 years as of this week. I'm customer service, but would like to go back as a teller (so much less stress, apparently there selling targets are a lot easier now). How's Liam when you wake him up at that 10-11pm feed? We had being doing a wake up feed about 8-8.30, I felt so guilty as Cameron is usually sound asleep and a little grumpy to begin with. For the last few days though I haven't been doing that wake up feed.
Mis - Did Stanky agree with the early night? Hope you's are well.
Nikki - Goodluck with the toilet training. At this stage that seems so far away for us, but will be here before we know it. Let us know of any tips that work for you's.
Well we are doing ok. Went to Dr's about Cameron's cough, but he really didn't do much but charge us $40 (so far our other dr visits with Cameron were bulk billed, but thankfully with the medicare rebate it only ended up costing $1.25). I really wanted something to ease his coughing, especially at 4am where it seems to really irritate him and lasts about 30-45mins. Will look into the Brauers stuff today, thanks.
Had another busy day yesterday, with Cameron and my mum, almost finished xmas and birthday shopping (got a couple of family birthdays coming up too). Only 1 more to get, but couldn't do it yesterday as it is for my mum. I've never been this organised in my life. I love not working, seem to get so much more done. I've even started to collect things for peoples birthday's next year.
We have started to cut down Cameron's feeds to 4 a day, as hadn't really done it consistently the other week. But I've been doing a morning and afternoon solid, and spacing the bf's out to 4 hourly (previously 3 hours) which he seems to get the same amount of milk, as my supply is much better at 4hours and he drains both sides (previously the 2 and 4th feed where rather small feeds).
I'm a little jealous of all your little chatterbox's. Cameron seemed to be saying hello about 2 months ago, then 'b' words 3-4weeks ago, but doesn't seem to be saying these or anything else at this stage. He does seem to make 'm' and 'n' sounds though, so mum and nan are probably on the way, but I haven't heard him say any 'd' sounds, so I don't think he'd say dad first at this stage. On other development front - think his 2nd tooth is on it's way already. Also I think he may be crawling by christmas. Since the weekend he started doing push ups onto his hands and toes, and Monday he started revving. This morning he did a little one knee crawl in his cot, then face planted, so I don't think it'll be long. I think I'd rather he talked first though, as not looking forward to chasing him around the house. Better do the child proofing this weekend.
Well better go get ready. Cameron's due to wake soon too.
