I'm back again. Feels a bit wierd to be back to the land of the living.
So evie's night was absolutely *****, as have been the last 3 nights. she didnt sleep at all and i had no idea what was going on. she's been asleep for 2 hours now so touch wood she's going to stay asleep. i tried to not feed her when she woke last night but it just didnt happen. maybe i need to leave that until shes eating solids.
Evie swallowed a bit of solids!!! hooray! i eventually bought jar food and she didnt mind it...it takes her ages to actually swallow it but she did and hasnt really done it again but here's hoping! shes interested in food...really interested but is working on that swallowing bizo.
We turned evie's car seat around too, she still hates going in the car but at least i can see her now. i had to put a prop thingy in for her to rest her head on so she doesnt roll around all over the place when she falls asleep.
these last 2 days she has barely eaten during the day either, so i too am experiencing rockmelon boobs for the first time in months!
i think thats all thats been happening here...crossing fingers evie stays asleep! :)

Good to see some of you back after being so sick!! I hope you all recover well.
Jovie's had a few good nights & last night was awful, it wasn't really her fault. DH kept waking her up with his snoring & then Matilda had a tantrum in our bedroom at around 2.30am which woke Jovie up for an hour & then she woke up again at 4.30 quite chirpy and happy... urgh.
Her top gums are swollen atm as well so looks like teeth are still on their way. I guess this will be the cycle for a while. I found some homeopathic tablets & they have worked wonders, I just have to remember to give them to her before bed... because when I give them, she sleeps better.
Has anyone else started brushing teeth? I started just to get her in the habit & its so cute. Matilda brushes hers at the same time so I just hold Jovie in the mirror and brush & she laughs. Hopefully it will be easier to brush hers than it ever was to brush Matilda's.

Good to see you back Tara!!
Brushing teeth... id never thought of it... thought u started that ages down the track!!
I just made carrot, corn, bean, peas and potato mush for chelsea... not a smooth texture.. and tastes sooo gross....gave her a little to try and she must have realised it wasnt like she is used to and kept trying to get it our of her mouth... so i just kept feeding it...lol I hope she likes it when it comes to meal time. She much prefers her smooth potato! Green mush does not look appealing by any means..!

What yoghurt do you give AJP?
-
I finally found the baby yoghurt..i get the baby yoplait the pear and peach Emelia loves them!
-
i have just got got the wiggles yogurt from aldi but may look at others that perhaps dont have sugar in them!! tastes good though, she always opens her mouth to yogurt
-
Ok im on the look out for this baby yoghurt.....what age is it ok from? i thought milk other then breast or formula was a no go til 12 months? Or it something completely different and modified for our babies tummies?
Geez im so dumb....
-
Ur not dumb Kim, it says 6 months on the pack ya just get it in the same spot normal yoghurt is. on the pack it says gentler on babies tummies.
-
Oh ta... ill look when im shopping....Chels likes milkshakes (norty i know) so im sure she'd devour tubs of yoghurt too!
-
Emelia loves Jelly and ice-cream!!!
-
We like choc cake, sticky date pudding and choc ice cream!
-
kim the lactose/milk protein?? componant is easier to digest in yogurt than milk so is fine from an earlier age!
-
will look for baby yogurt too.
i am just so over everything at the mo. dh and i just keep fighting and ive had enough. i am so sick and tired of being taken advantage of. for weeks i have been saying i need a break and i get no regard. ive just started snapping back with whatever nasty comment comes into my head.
we've decided to move back with his parents yet i still have to work. how the f**k am i meant to get up and do an 8 hour shift when i am still getting up 6 times a night. its like 'you're ok you'll manage'. well i dont want to just f**king manage. ive been managing on my own for the past 8 freaking months without a complaint and now when i want some time on my own its too much to ask.
we only have one car (well the other one needs a bit of work) so when he goes out i am stuck at home. so i said thats it i'm getting the other one fixed and getting another baby seat. well apparently thats not on our list of priorities. i'll tell you one thing, me not going mental is high on my priorities list.
i have never felt this over it in our 10year relationship and i dont know if i can bounce back from it

DP is gonna be getting a bike so ill soon have the car back, thank f#*k!!
i hope u can get the other car fixed hun, and hopefully the move to his parents will help out...:hugs: darl wish there was more i could do for ya.
