[Hoody]

Hi girls been a couple of days between posts for me so dont know how well i will do with personals but here goes-

Belinda and Heather- Welcome to the thread cant wait to get to know you both it will be nice to have a couple more posters in here it can get a little quiet at times. Or maybe i spend to much time on BB and get bored if noone has posted anything for me to read

Belinda- i envy the sleeping through but cant be lucky twice my DD1 was a dream like that but with Molly been no 2 i'm not so lucky this time on average we go from 11-6 but hey some nights are dreadful others are better.

Heather- i too have pg brain but now i too call it BFing brain.

Twin sis- lol at ppl thinking Cameron is a girl i can dress Molly head to toe in pink and still get asked her sex and i'm like 'hellllooooo she is in pink cant i make it any more obvious' but with DD1 i never got asked must have been her hair.

Willow- I do drink aktivite at least 2 glasses a day but i'm not a huge fan have to drink it down fast iykwim. My supply is ok now as far as i know our weigh in is on thursday.

Dragonbub- I'm hearing you on the couple time we too have a little issue (well DH more than me iykwim) He can feel quite neglected and left out as when both girls are asleep i am cleaning, excersising, on BB or trying to wind down just having me time he doesnt get that i dont want to sit on the couch and have him lie all over me etc. I get jumped by a 2 yo and carry around a NB all day so when they arent here i like my space- selfish but true.

Suse and June- how are you both?

Well today is my Birthday and DH forgot Oh well once you have kids i think you tend to take a back seat etc iykwim. Had a nice day though went out for lunch with my sis (i am a twin)
Miss Molly is doing well and been very sleepy today so i am she is having a growth spurt. She has been a star both yesterday and today. Off to tidy up b4 bed my house looks like a bombs gone off and we are having a BBQ tomo evening so need to get somethings sorted.

Happy Birthday Hoody!! Enjoy the rest of your night... men aren't great at remembering these things but I think DH definitely owes you some pampering now!

[Twin Sister]

Happy Birthday Hoody, hope you had a nice lunch with your twin sister. Good luck at the weigh-in! ROFL about Molly being in pink and still getting asked about her sex. People are funny!

Dragonbub - we have together time issues as well. Cameron won't go to bed until at least 10pm and by then I'm dying I'm so tired so I go to bed with him. This leaves zero alone time for hubby and I. Were going to have to take our friends up on their babysitting offer so we can go out one night with just the two of us.

Heather - yay on the parents moving closer. Sadly we moved away from ours a year ago and now they are now a 17 hour drive away so we don't get to see them much either.

Belinda* - Congratulations on your daughter and welcome! I'm very envious of the 7pm-7am sleeping! We've just managed to get Cameron's bedtime changed to 10pm from midnight and he's sleeping 7hrs at a time so i can't complain too much, but 12hrs must be soooo nice.

Willow - Very interesting! We don't have anything like that here (mind you I live in a pretty small town). Aw the curly crazy hair sounds so cute!

Well I tried to put him in his own room but I just couldn't do it. I'm too out of it at 5:00am to go get him from his room and take him to the living room to feed him. The last two nights though he slept 7hrs and didn't make a peep so I actually slept 7hrs without waking up or having weird dreams. It was heaven!

Oh Happy Birthday Hoody

sorry I haven't been on much lately. We are still having major sleep issues. He is down now though so I will go and rest my head and then try and get back later in the day for some personals.

Hugs to you all

[Willow]

Happy bday Hoody!!!

June - sorry to hear that, it really sucks when they're not sleeping well . If you get time, let us know what's going on, maybe we can help or give some pointers? I know both Dragonbub and I have both had sleeping issues earlier on, it does get better, promise!

We are doing well, cruising along. In an exciting development today - DS is going to sleep without his dummy and is settling just great so far!! He doesn't have it at night, he's never needed it but has had it for about 6 weeks now during the day. I really want to get rid of it but we'll see how he goes without it. I did use it earlier to resettle him for a longer sleep. Will work on the settling without it and then try resettling without it in a few days I think.

Hi girls!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HOODY!!!!!

lol...that loud enough?? hehehe

Dont mind me - seriously sleep deprived - but funnily has nothing at all to do with Charlotte - Im addicted to the nappy hunt...was up until 5 am this morning...lol Charlottes been awake since 7 so no sleep for me! WOOT! lol

Welcome Belinda to our lil group! And congrats on the 12 sleeps - just hope she does it for the rest of her life and youll be set!

I am so understanding the "Together Time" thing with DF...added to that that he comes home for 1 week and Charlotte and I sort of have our lil routine, then he;s here for a week, and out goes the routine, iykwim? He feels a lil left out sometimes I think, but I dont really know what to do about it. Im expressing (trying) more so that he can feed her at nights, I think that may help, so he can feel like he is actually doing stuff for her...Im so used to doing everything that I tend to just "do" things when tehy need to be done, nappy changes, baths, sleeping, etc. Have a friend of ours staying indefinately from the UK atm so I think when DF comes home next week I might ask Blair to look after Charlotte for a couple of hours so we can go out for dinner and a movie. That will be nice!


Charlote gets asked if shes a boy...WTF she doesnt look like a boy! lol, expecially when shes wearing a floral onsie, like she was the other day when the guy asked me - bloody men! lmao.

So, cant talk must hunt!! lol Hope all you girls are signed up?!?

Hoody have a great day!!!

Talk soon
