[shereejoy]

[mrsmac]

I only had ms with Riley Kim!!
Glad you had a good weekend, we put on nice weather for you too

[shereejoy]

And I was sicker with this pregnancy then lachlan's and still a boy, so who would know....


Well I had a productive day, packed more boxes today, nearly got all the kitchen done now. Finished the linen cupboard last week and the bathroom. Slowly gettign thru it, gosh it feels good.

We went to our newly renovated cafe for fish and chips tonight and sat in the towns newly done park too. It was so nice. Lachlan even ate whahooooo.... so it was just so nice just before dark, nice and cool and you could still see. That is what family outings are all about.

This little monkey is def trying to cut out his day sleep WTF.... but this mother aint havin a bar of it!!!!!!!!!!!!

[widdly]

sheree - well thats great news about the bigger house, the extensions sound great too, hope you manage to get them done before Riley moves in! Lachlan must be a petite little thing, i wonder, if Riley is a great eater, they might end up sharing clothes! Archie is in a size 2 top and 1 bottom atm. Just keep persisting with the day sleep and hopefully he will realise that he doesn't actually have a choice and he will give in and start having little sleeps again. Bribery worked for me in the end "You can have a lolly after you have a little sleep, but you have to have a little sleep first, then a lolly" Worked a treat!

We all stayed up til 11pm last night, it was like a sauna in our house, Then Arch slept in our bed under the fan and we slept in the lounge with the air con, thank goodness it is cool here today, been ages since we had a cool day.

[shereejoy]

I wish the lolly thing worked. I don't think he understands like Archie does. I wish he did. Ohhh I wish something would work, he can't do this to me now, and esp just before putting him in a bed. I am just not sure how this is all going to pan out. I wish it would just fix itself. It is things like this that make u realise things were running quite smoothly.... I need to rest when bubby comes along, please don't do this to me now. I might have to give him some phnergen thru the day at this rate! LOL....

I have been going in sometimes 5 times before he goes to sleep and plonking him on his bum and laying him down. This is like a 2 hour attempt to get him to sleep, how ridiculous!!!!


And to add to all this - we are sick here again, SURPRISE SURPRISE....... Started with a cough yesterday. Since going back to daycare in early Feb, this is the 4th illnesses. Starting to drive me nuts. It is horrible hearing him cough all nite long. He woke up soooo much, Wade ended up sleeping on the floor beside his cot.

[widdly]

sheree - it takes at least an hour for Archie to go to sleep day or night, and i am going in there a few times to put him back to bed and try and convince him to sleep, so just know that Lachlan is not the only one, it must be an age thing i guess It must be frustrating that he gets sick so often now that he has started daycare, that is one of the things that puts me off atm, does he get over them fairly quickly? Maybe when Riley comes, you could have a rubber mallet next to Lachlan's cot and just give him a good whack over the head each night....LOL

[shereejoy]

Well yesterday it was from 1.30pm to 4pm b4 he went to sleep and then it was only 1/2 hour.

Lachlan has been sick so many times since he started daycare and that was a year ago now. I would hate to think how many illnesses we have had in that year. But I was just giving you an idea of this year alone. It is ridiculous.

Must be an age/phase thing, I just hope the gets over it quick smart!!!!

[shereejoy]

I had my midwife appt 2day, my blood pressure is still good at 110/70. Big change from my high blood pressure with Lachlan of 140/90.

I am measuring ahead it appears. She said I was measuring at 26 weeks and I have only just turned 25 weeks, so maybe this bub isn't as small as I was thinking??? Dunno, I never had anyone tell me my measurements b4. My gyno last time, never spoke much... hehe Soooo not sure what it all means.....

I always knew I was small in size with Lachlan and had a real big gut feeling he wasn't going to be big.

[shereejoy]

Well we went an hour away to Emerald today and Lachlan got worse and worse as the day progressed, so Wade rung around and got us into the doc. Lachlan has an ear infection with an associated cold. So we are on antibiotics and ventalin sprays. Apparently the ventalin sprays help with the tickle in his throat by opening up the airways????? Anway worth a shot I guess.

I have all of a sudden put on 8kgs, eeek!! but I guess I am 25 weeks. I put on alot of fluid towards the end, but I so I don't reach 26kgs again, but I am sure I am still well under the weight at the same stage with lachlan.
