Hi Girls,
Melissa - :hug: Good luck for next week when you find out if Rebecca needs treatment or not. I have my fingers crossed for you both!!! She is a clever girl pushing backwards on the mat!
Not much news my end. Lara is almost 4 months old, can't believe how big she is getting. Can you beleive its been almost a year since we joined belly buddies due in Nov 16 - 30 thread. DH, Lara and I went to the movies today. Lara did the biggest poo in there. It was one of those huge ones that come up the back and front and leak out. It was gross. Can't believe she had to do it while we were in there.
Better go, hi to all the mums and bubs.

hello girls!!
I havent been in here for a while Im sorry :(
I hope you are all really well. We are great here, LOVING every day, it just gets better and better doesnt it?? Although I think with more than one bub it would be really hard. Ive only JUST started to think gee I could go another. Up until now, I was thinking Mia would be an only child. But she's such a joy, I definitely want more.
Mini- same as you, Id LOVE a boy next! Hope the ultrasound results were ok? Mia had hers last week, we havent seen the specialist yet, but the woman doing it said her hips looked ok...so Im hoping she wont need any further treatment :pray:
Leigh- arrggh you are right,nearly a year since I joined the december group. WOW time flies. It has been the best year of my life!
mellys- same here, one is a handful, we are going to wait til Mia is 3 or 4, but thats only if the financial situation improves.
DH is wanting me to go back to work soon :( I just want to be with my bubby :(

Hello thought i should letyou know that beccas hip review was good. Specialist seems to think it will resolve itself but we have to go back in 9 weeks.
All good here, am listening to Becca talking away to her toys...so cute! Shes had recurring conjunctivitis and I dont seem to be getting it under control. She also has a cold, luckily nothing elses coz olivia has had oral thrush and also a rash on her vagina that turned out to be thrush too. I was thinking becca might get the oral thrush coz Olivia often steals her bottles!!! They are both on the mend, yay.
Well i assume everyone is busy, hope you mums and bubs are well

That's great news about her hip Melissa :D
Oh no lol Leigh that poo sounds delightful ;) It always comes at the worst time. We haven't had a public blowout yet but I've had my fair share with the boys!
:hug: Skyeblue. I hope you get to spend a bit more time home with bubs.
Ruby is doing awesome :D She's started giggling. The boys love that and they get a bit silly. Her eyes are starting to get colour. Looking like she'll go brown I think.

Hello, so quiet in this thread, everyone must be busy with their bubs. My problem is my laptop is on the kitchen bench and is on all day!!!! Too much surfing!
We have had some horror days with Rebecca. She must be going through a growth spurt. I thinks shes 15 weeks old now ( how terrible I cnat rmember...shes 3.5 months!!) Shes been waking through the night again, her feeds are lasting 1.5 hours or she will only drink 60-100 mls of a 200ml feed. She naps for 10 minutes and then wakes up crying and wants to be held constantly. She has this new thing of poking her tounge out....probably why she wont take her bottle! I dont think she will be far from rolling either from back to front coz shes twisting herhips over, just needs to move the top half. She squirms around on the floor, shes very vocal and has great laughs now. Shes also started to lift her head up alot. I will turn around in the car and look at her and shes lifting her head up....wants to do it all the time.
Ok, shes awake....how is everyone else going??? What are their babies up to? Is anyone left in this thread......!!!! LOL

Hellooooo Ladies,
Sorry I've been so MIA from this thread. I am lurking though.
Harriet is an absolute darling, we all love her so much. She's fully breastfed and thriving after a bit of a rocky start with attachment issues, a cracked nipple and mastitis. We use cloth nappies almost full time, we just use one disposable at night. She's been sleeping through the night since two months old. Like 9pm to 6am. It's amazing, DH and I still can't believe it. Every morning we wake up and say FOBS (far out brussel sprout, OMG alternative) she's done it again! DS still wakes up through the night about once or twice a week but we just take him straight back to bed and it's not too onerous. They share a room, DS in a toddler bed, DD in a cot. There's been absolutely no rivalry/jealousy from DS, he loves her just as much as we do. So all happy, happy news here from us.
The other day Harri was kicking about on the floor with her nappy off. I left the room for a few minutes, came back in and she'd rolled over off her mat and done a wee on the carpet. It was great that she rolled 'an all but the carpet+wee made it a little less exciting.
Melissa - I'm so gald to hear Becca's hips are looking good.

Hi all! It sure has been quiet in here...guess we are all busy being mums...hehe... ;)
My little princess is such a good little girl...she's sleeping up to 11 hours a night (well for the last 4 nights) although she doesn't sleep much at all during the day. She's gotten herself into a rough routine of 6 feeds a day which is great! She's just wonderful...so very different to what DS was like as a bub...hehe... ;)
We have an appointment to see a specialist dermatologist in Sydney in May for her port wine stain birthmark so that will be interesting...hopefully there are no associated problems but I guess we'll wait and see.
DD is cooing and 'talking' ('ahgoo') and trying to sit up...haha...she rolls a lot too...crazy girl... ;) She's about 7.5 kgs & 65 cms...a BIG girl for not quite 15 weeks. :)
Curious to know how other bubs are going with feeds and size too. Hope you're all well!

Hey guys yer sorry been mia,
umm things still rocky here but good aswell. Can't remember what i last wrote but we bought a house and settlement is this friday so been busy packing and cleaning! Marriage is still having many problems, i have been diagnosed with sever depression and made the difficult descision to go on ADs, but am still able to BF so happy there.
Tallon is doing great feeding well albiet irregularly (yer switched to demand feeding) onto my second bout of mastitis though i have no idea how as i have quite a low supply as it is.
He is rolling all over the shop has been since the 3month mark both ways so thats exciting, he is such a happy baby always smiling and giggling and so very very content its amazing.

Just thought i would bump this thread....it was heading to the 3rd page:( Where has everyone gone?? I know the ppl due in December stayed with their group, but wheres our November group??? is it that i have way too much time on my hands....instead of doing housework????
Rebecca has been rolling back to tummy. She can lift her head right up whe doing tummy time. Shes having 5-6 feeds a day and is sleeping from about 930 til 8am....pitty about her sister though!
Hope you ae all well

Hi Girls,
I've been wondering the same thing. This is such a quiet thread. Remember when we were pregnant we were always busy chatting to each other. I miss that!
Lara is getting so big. She is 4 1/2 months now. She had her 4 month needles last wk. She didnt have any reactions to them but I have never heard her cry so loud in my life as she did when she got them.
I am getting my implanon removed on Monday, I got it put in when Lara was 4 days old but I am constantly bleeding and it has made me put on weight which I cant get off no matter how hard I diet and exercise.
Hope all the mums and bubs are well.

HI girls,
Yes have been lurking, all going well here. Willow is growing really well. In 95% for height and weight in 75%!
Alas the night time sleep through have not lasted :( I tried to get a routine for the day time and the night went out the window....trying desperately to get that back...its killing me,10pm 1am and 4am last night...then wouldn't go back to sleep and DD1 wandered in at 5.30 wide awake and ready to play, and I had to be at appointments the other side of town by 9am.
But I am sure that it will be just a short time and I will again get at least 5-6hrs sleep straight...and everytime Willow grins at us it makes it all worth it :)
Feeding well, but absolutely refuses a bottle of EBM. Given up trying now. Can't believe how quickly the time is flying and that she has already passed the 4 month milestone.
Smoz - good luck with the moving, hope things settle down after that.
Leigh - have Willow's immunisations next Mon, dreading that crying.
Kate, Mel & Rachel - good to hear all going well your way as well.
Defintely seems to be a lot easier second time around...but I still don't know where the time is going.....
take care all

Hi everyone!
Jovi- I hope you get some more sleep soon, it sounds the same as our nights at the moment!
Leigh- sorry to hear the 4 month needles werent so good. Mia surprised me and didnt cry! I distracted her with a toy, and the dr squeezed her leg, so I dont think she noticed!
Mini- my god you are getting some great sleeps!
We have had a crap week or so. Mia will go to bed at about 7.30, wke at 11, 1.30, 4.30 and 6.30. I had enough this morning and have started the SOS routine in the hope that it will help.
She crashed at 7pm tonight, so Im praying it doesnt mean she will not sleep as long.
She used to be so good only waking once a night!! Grr what happened....
-
Hey Skye good to see you around. Rebecca may be sleeping great BUT Olivia is my problem and most nights its a struggle to get her to bed and a struggle to keep her in there. Shes up every night without fail and I end up sleeping on the floor in her room.
In saying that, Rebecca must be having another growth spurt coz shes feeding like anything and shes been waking for feeds at night...last night was 2 am. We are getting her needles on Friday....:(
Jo, go to see you here too, sorry youre not getting much sleep. I agree, its much easier second time around, but harder in some other ways...toddler!!!!
Leigh bugger on the implanon, what will you do for contraception?
Kate; hows things? I have been reading your posts, sounds like you have been having a bit of a rough time, but youre managing great.
DD1 turns 2 on April 1, cant believ it. Ok girls are in the bath with dh..... got to go rescue!
-
Hey ladies, I've been very busy doing mummy things too :) and the endless amount of house work :o
Zane was a little unsettled a couple of days after his four month needles but I finally have my baby back yay! Was quite funny when he got his needles, he didnt realise he had the first needle then he had the second, and he screamed his head off for approximately 5 seconds then started laughing?? his doctor said it was the strangest reaction hes ever seen lol. Hes getting so big and makes the cutest noises now.. aww I just love him to bits.
Hes rolling both ways and just started sitting unassisted this week (not for very long though) Started him on baby rice cereal the other day (couple table spoons a day) and he loves it.
Love being a mum and already planning our second, will be TTC in October!
Hope you and bubs are all well xoxoxoxoxooxoxox take care
:hug:

Hi All, We are going well, Rebecca had her needles yesterday and cried a fair bit, but shes ok now. We got her weighed and shes now 6.2kgs and 61cms. Shes plodding along nicely! Shes still only rolling from her back to tummy but will spend ages there looking around.
Olivia turns 2 on Wednesday, so tomorrow we are having a family bbq and today I made an elmo cake...it turned out really good!
Well, am going to relax, take care all
-
Hi Girls,
Melissa - Lara is rolling the opposite from Rebecca. You're very creative making the elmo cake, hope the family bbq tomorrow is nice. It is my birthday tomorrow. Dh is working tonight and all day tomorrow so last night he arranged for us and the two girls to go stay in a nice hotel. It was so relaxing to go swimming and out for a nice dinner.
I got my implanon out on Monday, my arm is so bruised from it. I bleed nearly the whole 5 months I had it in and the day after it came out my bleeding stopped. I am back on the pill now. I have to remember to take it everyday now. It has been years since Ive been on it.
Kylie - Glad Zane likes his rice cereal. I havent tried Lara on solids yet. Glad you love being a mummy hope when you TTC in Oct it doesnt take you too long to fall pregnant!
Jo - I agree the 2nd time around is a lot easier. I hope Willow is sleeping better for you.
Skyblue - I hope Mia is sleeping well for you as well. It is hard when you're used to getting sleep then bub starts waking again. Lara went through that for a few nights about a month ago, I didnt know what hit me. I was so tired.
-
Hey Leigh, am glad you sorted out your contraception, especially bleedind all that time... my sister was the same as you, however I never had AF on it...strange how it works.
I really wanted to do the Elmo cake but wasnt sure as I cant bake for penuts, but we got to taste the cut offs and its great.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for tomorrow., hae a fantastic day.
