KIMBAZ - Jaz had her four month vaccination last week - and unlike the first ones, when all we had was a day of her being a bit sore, this time, she was affected for four days - reverting to newborn poos, wanting to be held ALOT, not feeding well, crying that coulnd't be settled etc. I feel we are still catching up from this.

Hope your bub takes it better.

All this talk about solids, it's not even on my radar yet, how do you know when they're ready for it? Do they give you signals or do you just do it at a certain age?

Jaz recently was feeding very efficiently and much quicker, but since vaccinations has also reverted to very long feeds again.

I feel like such an awful mum each time we go somewhere, it alway seems we are picked up JUST when Jaz would prefer to sleep, which puts her in a grump. Can't wait til i get a car, so we can go places when it suits her cycles, not the times that very kind people come and pick us up.

LUUA - i agree, move when you can. I don't feel safe in my new neighbourhood, the crime rate is the highest of everywhere i have lived and the footpaths/playgrounds are really run down. We had to move in a hurry cos of the termites/preg equation of last lovely place (house on a quarter acre block in safe quiet area, where i had taken the garden from dump to lovely over four years).

Where we are now, there is doof doof music all the time, i can't hear the music, just the doof doof! When preg, it gave me really bad headaches. Like people say, go hom and rest, well, home was veryunrestful to me, yappy dogs on three sides, doof doof music and living on a road opposite a cemetery where the local hoons think it's the grand prix track adn the whippersnippers/lawn mowers at the cemetery are often going. Huh, who said cemeteries were quiet????

Had to bresatfeed sitting in a park Sat afternoon, with nothing to lean against, so my back is giving me merry hell now. will need several chiro visits, times like this i doubt my wisdom at becoming an older mum.

Had "Baby and Me" class yesterday, so small, only three mums including me. Hearing the other women makes me realise how fortunate i am, my dh loves Jaz so much and is always wanting to care for her, and assist me to b/f, whatever is going on. Not all dh's are like that i'm finding out.
