oh no even worse if no one has heard of it!!!!!!!! lol what is it??? but i say try that heinz one.. she doesnt even spew like she did on the other one.
Fussy - Logan makes all those noises at night too. Two nights in a row I hardly got any sleep from his snuffling and snorting in his sleep. We have moved the bassinette out into the front lounge room so that we at least have a door between us. He wakes us when he cries but we don't hear the other noises as much. His bedroom is way down the other end of the house, so it is still a bit far away for us to put him down there.
Hollye - hugs to you and Mia, I hope that thrush heals up soon so that things get back to normal for you.
Tan - How exciting getting your hair done. I got mine done just before Logan was born as I thought i wouldn't be able to afford the time to visit again for a while. I have been exclusively bfing and haven't expressed at all yet. I have a manual avent pump but just haven't needed to use it.
I have decided that Indian and Mexican food aren't that good to eat when bfing. I think they gave DS lots of wind and it was hard to settle him afterwards. I won't be having them again for a while
Hi everyone,
Olive and I shopping with my mum and 2 sisters today as k-mart opened near our town today . It was CRAZY, people everywhere, they expected 15000 and I reckon it would've been close! Olive was very well behaved though which is just as well cause her mother loves to shop. There were some great bargins but i'm finding it hard not to buy every cute thing I see. It was also interesting to see what it looked like inside a parents room, this one was very fancy. Speaking of finaces and shopping is anyone else kindof suprised how little dss payments are? I was expecting a bit more, oh well every bit helps.
When I was giving Olive formula for 1-2 feeds a day my pharmacist who also has a baby told me that karicare gold is the best as it has the most omega-3 and nutrients. I suppose it depends on what your baby will take though. In regard to expressing I started out not getting very much at all in the beginning but then I brought a good pump and everything changed. I started with an Advent one then brought a Tommy Tippee pump and it's way better, I started being able to get a full 125ml bottle. I think the more you do it the better you get as well (I was pretty much exclusively expressing for 2wks) and it helps if you have a shower first to help with let down.
I can't believe Olive will be 6wks tomorrow, how time flies when your a mummy!
Tan - woohoo thats great news!!! maybe its cause he is a boy tho and they will take what ever they can get - where as we girls are a bit more fussy!!!!
1stBub27 - thank u very much for that interesting bit of information - i now have Bianca on Karicare (not gold) and so far i think its going okay - much better than the S26 anyway - i want to try the Heinz one now - but i better not changer her again! what formula are u using?
Hollye - do u have to keep rubbing it in on how much sleep u are getting? LOL
I had a crap night last night, and low and behold i was by myself! i knew the night before was too go to be true! Bianca cried her self to sleep and ended up asleep at 2305 - was up at 0230 - back to sleep at 0330 and up at 0456 and stayed awake until 0800!!! i hardly had any sleep! DH is getting up too her all tonight! and wats the bet she either sleeps thru or only gets up once?!
Picked Bianca's photo's up from PixiePhotos today and my gosh do they look gorgouse!
1stbub - Im not sure about the head thing hun, James tends to put his head to one side while sleeping and he is a big boy too - over 5kgs so that might make a difference?? His head doesn't slouch down much at all - in fact its down further in the car capsule... Sorry not much help - I will post a pic of him in it next week if you like to see what it/he look like in it - can't do it now because of my downloading limits.
Kylie - I have the Avent manual too and love it = easy to use!
Phwoar! I love my new avi that Trillian did! I wish I looked like that in real life!! Hehe! Getting my hair done was great - so relaxing and nice to know my little man was fine with dad! Off to get the kids ready for bed! Have a great night all!
We're using Nesle Lactogen. It hasn't been too bad - with the Infacol drops anyway, but I'm looking forward to trying Heinz. HJ, If you're looking at changing your formula again, just run it past your Dr 1st. Perhaps mention it at your 6 week checkup. I've been reading a lot of people haven't been happy with the s26. But I guess it depends on your bub.
Tan - that'd be great, thanks. He is deffinitely better in it since he's gotten bigger, so maybe it'll just get better as he gets bigger.
Olivesmummy - yep I was shocked by how little the payments are, too! I don't want to be ungrateful since I'm getting something for 'nothing', but........
And 'ahhh, Tommy Tippee'. I've got a few things of theirs and been really happy. I have an AVENT pump which is supposed to be really good. I might keep practising with that, but if I get nowhere I might try the Tommy Tippee.
Kylie - I made a stew the other night and threw all kinds of hot spices in it, the next day Liam chucked soooooo much!! And he's not a 'chucker'. Think I'll avoid the Indian and Mexican too. My DH gave him a bit of Dutch Licorice (which he ADORES and I HATE) to try last night - just put it to his lips for his tongue to taste, and he loved it. Is that dangerous for them in anyway? (you know, apart from having that awful taste in his mouth!! ) I think he's just discovered his tongue too. He keeps half turning it and running it through his mouth with that 'discovering things' look.
