    wooohooo OlivesmummY! seems she was just having a couple "off" days.

    yeh no rushing into solids here. Will def wait to see what the pead thinks. Im sure he would rather be putting her on medication rather than starting solids this early..dont u think?

    Poor little poppet was screaming her lungs out earlier and i gave her some Gaviscon and it calmed her down a fair but so im gathering her reflux was playing up. Shes sleeping now.. she will be asleep till about 7am now. Oh but i give her a feed at 11pm but she doesnt wake up much.

    really should go wash the bottles...

    how does everyone wash their bottles here?? mine get washed in warm soapy water, rinsed then soaked in bottle dis infectant and then sterilized every night. Believe it or not it doesnt take that long to do..

    Hollye - I wash the bottles along with the breast pump after every feed/pump. I just use hot water and a bottle brush then sterilise in a microwave steriliser. I find washing them straight away does'nt cause a build up and they are easier to clean.

    hello lovely ladies...I have been sooo antisocial..nothing personal I have only just discovered facebook ( behind the times I know!!!)
    Well things are going well here, Angus is great and growing everyday (I swear he does it in his sleep or something...he's huge!!!)

    It is almost crunch time for me I have officially hit the annual leave part of my Maternity leave so I guess decision time is here have some thinking to do, though I don't think I need to think to hard have virtually decided not to return to work and will try something new which will let me stay home...Angus is way to small for me to leave him I only just survived going back to work when Paige was 6mths old, can't do it again...it looks like family day care here we come!!!

    Will be back again soon but have so much to do at the moment love and hugs to all and kisses to the babies xxxxx

    Olive'smummy-That's great news!! she's on the mend!!

    Hollye-I would be waiting to talk to the paed too. I think its a bit too early for solids. Oh and you will LOVE your slow cooker! Its all I use in winter!! Soooo easy!

    Blizz-Glad to hear everything is going well!

    HJ-What happened with the house??

    Amandaj-I agree, I love the rolls! Too cute!!!

    to everyone I've missed!!

    I'm planning on doing a lot of packing today. We are moving at the end of the month (hopefully-we are building) so I better get my butt into gear!!

    to everyone and their bubbas!

    wow thank god yesterday is now in the past - i had a hell day with Bianca!

    Leigh and Hippy - yep men can be sooo stupid! the latest on the house bit now is the real estate when and saw him again to see what the lowest he would go was, he ended up going down $7000 which ended up only being $2000 on what we would of gone up too - and if it really came down to it we prob would of accepted his offer, but cause of what a jerk he was we have put in a final offer of $5000 more than what we offered which is $14000 less than the asking price! we said its a take it or leave it offer - we are not playing his stupid game - there are pleanty more houses out there, and we have done our research and we know what houses are going for out in that area! so we will find out later this arvo if he accepts our final offer! in away im hoping he dosent cause im not sure i want that house anymore -its a really nice house but now im thinking it has bad stigma attached to it! and i wasnt a fan of the area! oh well will see what happens!

    Blizz - good on ya for making that decision - im thinking i will be leaning towards staying at home too and maybe just doing casual work (for my own sanity) i dont want too put Bianca in care -

    Hollye - yep i think its a good idea to wait and see wat pead says! but im sure if crunch came to crunch maybe a bit of rice cereal would be better than medication! but i wouldnt want too be putting Bianca on solids just yet so u have a big decision to make! and what ever u choose will be the right one for Mia! your her mummy u know best!
    also i was Bianca's bottles in warm soapy water and sterilize them after every use!

    Snoopea - well u might have to come for a holiday to Brissy sometime than!

    Olivesmummy - sounds like things are getting back on track for u!!!

    Tan - how are u going? how are ur 2 bundle of joys going also? how long until DH gets home in ur loving arms?
