Hi gigi, you came to mind as I was feeding aston in the wee hours this morning. I was thinking about your question about going out. Like blanchie I tend to leave after Aston has had a feed, and play, and would be getting ready to have a sleep, and he ususally falls asleep in the car - mind you I live about half an hour from where ever I usually want to go to. When we are out, I haven't had to wrap him, but do put the muslin wrap tucked in over him in the pram. Having said that I wouldn't hesistate to wrap him if he wasn't settling. the wrap, the dummy and tigger next to him are all the sleep cues that he has at home, lay him out on the wrap, pop the dummy in, and you can see him falling into the mode of sleeping most of the time. I'm pretty sure that I'm going to have to start taking tigger with us when we venture out soon, because he cuddles up next to him. (very cute) I also have some things for him to "play" with attached to the pram. do you have some toys for her to look at and touch while your out? kind of replicates that play time at home iykwim. As for "other" people - you know what works for bub. your her mummy darlin, bugger what they say. lots of people have asked me about the whole wrapping thing too, and I just reply that it makes them feel safe because its familiar just like being in the womb. if its really hot, i still wrap aston, I just do it with only a nappy on him. Hope that helps a bit.
ROLMAO Belinda. Way to go. and definately a boost to the ego! Not bad after having had three bubs, one of them just months ago! Must of been nice to have some"me" time though.
I'm doing a survey - no not really, just being nosey, and curious to know how old we all are. Some of you have your age in your Signatures. but the rest of us are guarding it with our lives...lol. I'm 37 (OMG 3 years of forty!!!) I bet I end up being the oldest one in here!
I think Aston has gone back to sleep now. He woke up with this god awful choking sound. DH and I were out of bed like bullets, poor little guy was "choking" on his spit I think. Tears and all. Settled him down, and fed him, but of course he was wide awake then. But it sounds like he is making sleeping noises now, so on that note I'm going back to bed to make my own sleeping noises....
well i'm soo glad Dd isnt the only one to stare blanckly at the camera!!lol!! i have worked out though, first thing in the morning after first feed, she's at ther best smiles and talks heaps, this is when i find i can get the best shots.
christy soory about your appt, bad bad man should have asked him is he's even got kids!! probably doesnt...
Gigi i try and make all my appointments int he morning and feed before we go out, dd doesnt sleep much when were out so usually home and fed and put to bed, even if she's not due for a feed usually just top her up.
