Nikki- No offence taken... I BF DS til 3 months and with supply issues had to resort to bottle... Once i switched he was a different kid... no more waking every 2 hours day and night he turned into a good sleeper during the day and we had 3-4 hour stints at night. I have same issue as NaNa, DD wont take a bottle... she has had a few but its not consistent... Just wheni think yeah she drank one she'll refuse the next one... so i cant win... i've tried formula and EBM and she refuses both... Oh well... If my supply gets that low she'll end up taking a bottle if she's that hungry/thursty...
NaNa- bugger bout the Toxic Poop.. Ewwweee... we've got no visual on the top teeth yet but all other signs point to teething... Poor bubbas.... I feel so bad for them... Also i felt like screaming horray when i woke up full for a change... YAY on the porridge too...I havent tried that yet... Hmmm great idea though...
Bec- I have to do the same with DD also... Jordan will need to start few extra days to get ready for Big school after next yr and when i go back to work in May I'll have the 2 kids in care... Not sure how that will go 2 kids for 2 days... will have to speak with CL to see what my rebate will be to see if its worth it for me... Its 56 a day for DS and 58 a day for DD SO hoping i get a good rebate or it wont be worth sending them for me working 2 days.... I'll be working to pay for care...
Abb- sounds full on all the organising for DD's school next yr... gosh... mush be nerve racking thinking bout your DD going to Highschool... YAY on the tooth also... SOunds like everyone is having clingy issues... Must be another phase... YAY on the break for the chrissy party... enjoy...
Sass- Isnt it weird that men dont get plainly obvious hints... maybe next time you need to tell him straight i want thins.... lol... i was supposed to get a bracelet for chrissy from MIL and DP... Well MIL decided she's get us a plasma TV... WTF... i cant wear a plasma... I asked DP why she's think i wanted a TV.. (its like his and my present) he told me that he said it was a good idea... so i told him now he has to buy me the bracelet when the after chrissy sales are on... no cheap one cos its only him buying it... i want the one i wanted that they were going 1/2s in... LOL... So i know what its like to be well disapointed... Hope you have a good time...
Well best be off... DD is asleep finally 1st sleep for the day... best make some use of this time...
I might be off line for a while as my computer keeps freezing and bringin up some stupid message, its not a virus apparently something to do with one of the hard drives argh i was so angry yesterday i thought i had lost all abbies baby photo's but luckyly i havn't it took me all day yesterday to get them off one at a timeas thats all it would let me do
ok so i will post this and then edit it with personals just incase it freezes againthat is does not.
Ok well see how this goes!
Jess and nana i do know how you feel cody would not take a bottle either and never did! I BF him till he was about 15months old but it worked for us and eventually i weaned him off and he started sleeping alittle better, i suppose all babies are different. Thats why i made sure from the first week with my second two babies that they had a bottle every few days, but who knows i don't think that would of helped cody either he just loved his BM. I think that its great that you are still bf well done especially to jess!!!
Nana yes there are 6 in total going to his school and there are 3 others in his class which is great, his best mate at kindy is going to another school but they are both going to play soccer together next year so that will be great.
Bec abbie's second tooth is alomost out as well, she is so good she has hardly been whingy with her teeth, i swear by the teething gel SM33 it is the best. I actually used it myself when i was pregnant and my wisdom teeth were playing up(its the only tim they play up is when i am pregnant) and it totally numbs it no pain don't even know its there. It does not taste the best but hey if it works i say use it. Yeah for nearly crawling how cool, abbie is only going backwards on her tummy. on the food thing i haven't been waiting the three days but i do know its the best. oh my goodness my computer just froze but then came back i am going to save now phew it worked!!!! On the childcare thats a great idea starting him early cause atleast if you want ot stay for a while the first few days or something you will be able to. Hope you get in but by the sounds of it you will.
Abb hope that hamish teeth aren't giving him too much greif. Yeah on the new school for maddi how exciting, abbie started saying yeah yeah yeah its so cute and i swear she said DAD yesterday grrrrrrrrrrrrr i looked at her and said you better not be saying dad and she just smiled at me !!!!!!!!!! Only because they always say bloody dad first i have been saying to her for weeks mum mum mum and nothing. Who feeds her changes her pooey bum pushed her out to give her life MUM not DAD!!!! only kidding i don't mind as long as she can talk but i really want her to say mum he he he he.
Sassy Happy birthday for next tuesday if i am not able to be back here!!!
Jess by the sounds of it your supply is great don't worry about her not taking the bottle it won't be long before they could have there milk in a cup anyway thing are going so quickly they will be one before we even blink.
Take care and hopefully i will be back soon
sorry if i have missed anyone just and sorry about the typo's just really tried to do this quickly
Nikki

: Stupid stupid computer
Once again will just do a quick one, as I need to start to get ready for tonight. Got my work xmas party, I've been looking forward to this night out. I didn't end up getting those milkscreen things, will just play it by ear. I've got a couple of ebm in the fridge and plenty in the freezer, and also got formula there as well. Only thing is we haven't tried this next step in the formula yet, would there be much of a difference from step 1 (like in taste, thickness or even tummy upset problems)? Oh well guess we will see.
Hope everyone is well and getting sleep. We had a good night last night, especially after it took a while to get Cameron to sleep last night, but he slept til 4, after a little cry (not even loud, more of a whinge) he went back to sleep til 5.30, where he played with his teddy (gave him a little teddy bear to sleep with to try to attach him to for when he goes to child care). He seems to talk and play with him (so cute).
ok so today we had a totally stupid moment lol.
we dropped jayda off at daycare then had to go do a claim at HFC so we drive to the main shopping center which is usually like 30min away but traffic was so bad it took a hr. Dh kept turning around to talk to jayda nad i was laughing at him for forgettin she was at daycare. then we get to the shops and i go to line up at the santa thing. DH just looks at me and is liek wat r u doing. i reply with getting jayda santa pic done. then i remember we dont have her
i think teeth r def cominbg she has been very sooky and when we put bonjela on she seems to stop.
better get goign time to put tea on hope everyone has a great weekend
Had an aweful past few days wil MIL issues... Today was another waste of day... After not picking up some pants for MIL and her being p!ssed i decided i
d better do the 2nd thing she asked me to do... So off i go to pick up this washing powder that was supposed to be a donation for BIL's school and the guy is like "did you read the letter" i said no and explained MIL had told me to pick up the donations... he says... It was an offer to several people and it was 1st in best dressed... Your supposed to phone to see if there still available... What a waste of time... It took me 30 mins to drive there for nothing... Luckily there was a medicare bout 20 mins away fo i utilised the trip and did that then went to the local shopping centre. DD was well behaved... I brought this CUTE as dress i'll post pics on my FB once i dress her up in it... Its like a fairy dress... Like the one One Nikkis FB of Abbie... Gorgeous... i also got her this little outfit its like a ballerina set... shirt and shorts that have a tutu sewn on. i ordered the canvas prints for MIL's Chrissy present even though i'm ****ed off at her for having a go at me... So all in all the day wasnt a complete disaster...
I had to feed DD while there and i'd just like to know if any of your DP/DH's ever use the parent room??? i felt so awkward today i went in to feed little miss to find all these ladies feeding (bottles) and this couple siting on the couch watchin TV while the mother bottle fed there bubs ( the hubby on 1 lounge and the wife on the other... i went to walk back out and she goes do you need to feed your bubba and i said yeah but its ok... she then tells her hubby to move and he sits next to her... like i'm in there to breast feed... If i wanted an audience i'd have fed in the food court... They were eatin maccas and it was one of those parent rooms that didnt have a separate cubicle with curtain for BF... just one BIG a$$ room with a TV and 2lounges and the change area and loo...so my q's is does your hubby go with you to the parent room?? i actually find it weird that men are in there... Sorry... he sat there the whole time i fed looking over every few minutes... I felt so uncomfy... i felt like huding under the blanket i had DD under...
Nikki- wow 15 months... i hope i can get to the next goal of 9 months... then 12 if possible... Supply is still dodgy but were dealing ok... i fnd SM33 GREAT aswell... a friend of mines bubs throws up with bonjella so she uses the curash brand... I have one of each tube... lol... IKWUM about bubs saying Dad 1st both kids have now said Dad 1st... but both have been clingy for me... i just dont get it...
so i told him now he has to buy me the bracelet when the after chrissy sales are on... no cheap one cos its only him buying it... i want the one i wanted that they were going 1/2s in... LOL... So i know what its like to be well disapointed... Hope you have a good time...
