Babies Born November 2007

[Willow]

Oh I forgot what it's like to have a newborn!

LOL, me too Rachel, but it's all coming back to me pretty quickly now!! I'm sure I'll have a few more of these moments though. I hope you and little Blake are better really soon.

Well the little man is doing well, and when bub's happy, mum's happy so things are good here at the moment. He had a really good night last night, his longest stretch is still only 4 and a bit hours but it's better than 2 so I'm not complaining to much! He generally wakes 3 hourly to be fed around the clock.

For those girls with older kids/toddlers/babies - do you remember how long it is before they start doing longer stretches at night (he is b/fed)? I can't for the life of me remember when DD started sleeping a bit longer at night but reading the October baby buddies thread (like to keep up cause we were due in October) some of those babies are doing like 7+ hours already - yikes! Jealous much?? LOL...

Tomorrow we're off to the chiro again. We're going to give it 2 weeks to see if it helps with his colic and helps him sleep a bit better. If we don't see any improvement, then we'll stop going because it is quite expensive, especially when you're going every few days. Then we're off to the CHN to have him weighed. He's been gaining weight really well so I hope it continues this week, just gives me more confidence in our b'feeding.

I need to remember to ask them to check his hips again, they've been checked about 5 times now but the CHN who did our home visits thought they were a bit clicky and said it might be worthwhile having an x-ray done. The paed at the hospital, the midwife who came to see us on the early discharge program and our GP all checked them and didn't comment so I'm hoping they are fine.

Hope all mums and bubs are well.
