    Morning all you lovely Girlies!!!

    Hollye - i was reading a post a few weeks ago about re-lactating cause i was thinking of giving it a go - is that weird????? apparently u can do it but it takes a long time for it too happen - and u can get medication from your doc to get things started again - do u have any milk left? can u squeeze a drop out at all - i was able to until about 2wks ago now i have nothing

    Tan - Hubby gets back today - are u excited???? where is his flight now?

    Olivesmummy - i got a few weddings comming up this year but im taking B along with me - i still cant leave her with anyone - i was thinking of maybe leaving her with my parents while DH and i go have dinner or something on valentines day but nope i know i just cant do it! wish i could tho - a little break would be nice!

    How is everyone else going?

    Bianca has slept thru EVERY night so far this week - she goes to be around 2000/2030ish and wakes up between 0500-0600!!! how awesome is that?!

    Hollye I've heard that you can relactate, I hope you can get lots of info and it will help you, like Tan said ABA would be a great place to get the info.

    Tan no he doesn't have a flat spot luckily, I keep trying to move his head especially when he's awake, he gets tummy time and sits on my lap just so that he doesn't rest on it to much.

    HJ that's great that B is starting to sleep through, hopefully she will keep it up and give you some much needed rest. You should check into the relactating as well it couldn't hurt.

    OM her tooth could be just moving around it may come out in days or months you just never know.

    Leigh big , maybe she's just going through a fussy stage, hopefully she will stop the fussing at the bottle soon.

    Not much going on here, have got everything for the boys to go back to school, just have to cover their books.

    hugs xoxo

    Amanda - i found out after i gave up BFing that B has a short fenulum - hence why i had soooo much trouble with her BFing - no one told me this at the time mind you!
    The pead didnt even pick it up at her 6wks check up - and if he did than he ignored it - cause apparently according to my gp and the nurse at the chemist they are very common and usually fixes itself! So im not even sure we would be able to BF, as much as i want to give it another go, i felt so bad and felt like such a failure for not being able to do it first time round, if i still cant do it than it may just make me feel even worse, plus she has been on the bottle for so long now, i doubt she would be a happy baby going back to the boob, when the bottle is so easy for her!

    DH is back! SO nice to have him home finally! Off to do some stuff while all three kids are in bed! Back later if I can. I won't be around BB much anymore - long story but I spend way too much time on here and invest too much time and energy that could be better spent elsewhere. Will still pop in though - maybe just once a day or so instead of a million times a day!

    Hi girls. Having a crappy day - too hot, too broke, too tired etc. Should be all good tomorrow (I think the hot and tired have a lot to do with it). Went to the doc today, he said sometimes the body doesn't disolve the stitches so it forces them out which is obviously the case with me. The rest of them will come out eventually. Apparently the other layers should be fine. I think they use other stitches or something for them. I asked about when is too soon to have another bub after c/s, he said 'they' recommend at least TWO YEARS!!!! Then went on to say it can take a year for your body to be properly healed after a c/s so they recomend at least 1-2 years. So i got a script for the mini-pill, not happy about it though. (ha, not happy about much today :P).

    Meanwhile Liam's been good, but hardly slept all day coz of the heat and we went shopping and he must have gotten overstimulated - just means i have to shop more so he gets used to it right?

    Ive got my nanna babysitting Liam for a few hours next week while i get my hair done. I've left him with DH before for a few hours at a time but this will be the 1st time without either of us. At the moment I'm not worried by it. He'll love the attention and its only a couple of hours.

    Goin to bed. night girls.
