Tanya: Well Jude and Maya have been tag-teaming since they were born, having quite similar temperaments, so poo to that. Maya waking up 3 times a night and being so hard to settle is terrible, it hasn't come to that with Jude but I had to feed him twice at each feed last night, once from the boob and then from bottle because he wasn't satisfied so I was up for ages twice through the night, but once I'd filled him to the brim he went to sleep easily, even without his dummy.
btw, I use the dummy whenever I want to, I don't worry about it only being for bed. I have vague memories of there being rules back at the start, but I quickly got over that. Jude doesn't always take a dummy and he doesn't always need one, so he's definitely no Maggie Simpson.
Teruteru: congratulations on finishing your exams. I missed out, what are you studying? That must be SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO (etc) hard with a little baby.
teru - woo hoo congrats on the exams!! I still don't know how you do it, so well done. I hope the trip goes well too.
Well we had a very unsettled Mr X last night - who was he on the phone to?
And he had his bath this mornign which always makes him mega-grumpy... poor laddie gets the itchy scritchies afterwards. MIL was over and was quite struck by how unhappy he is afterwards (which was kinda gratifying cos I had explained that this happens), and that's why we do it on the day, not at night. Oh well, at least it's over for another week.
I went online shopping and bought myself a superstar galactibra (a sports one - but not underwire) to hold in my E cup girls, Estelle & Edna (no, i don't really call them that ). I'm hoping it'll be good, cos i just can't find a decent bra anywhere atm, and I want to be able to walk without knocking myself out! Fingers crossed it'll be ok.
Oh and SamiH - u can live vicariously thru me, cos i bought those cot sheets. In return, you can have my share of the anzacs
hope everyone is having a good weekend so far. I couldn't sleep until 4 am - combination of DH snoring, unsettled boy, and "healing discomfort". arrrgh zombie-belfie needs caffeine!
Ugh, judging by the wet patch and the ache in my ovaries, I'm back on a 28-day cycle. Not that it matters since I'm not having sex. God, my poor husband.
Anyone have set plans on when/if they will have another child?
Kuraiza
as for AF....mine is all over the place...it has only been 21 days since last AF.. and she has returned with a vengence!!!! its days like today i hate being a woman!!!
As for kidlets... want 1 more (that will make total of 4) BUT we are not 100% sure if/when we will start IVF again...IF we do..it will be January '10 when we will start, we will have to do a FULL stim cycle as we don't have any frozen embies we only got 2 eggs last cycle and only 1 was viable (and that 1 is Jack)
Teru
congrats on finishing your exams
and i hope you have a great trip
OMG.. Maya only woke ONCE last night at 4am! I feel like a new woman! Though she was hard to settle after her feed and was up till 6am! Still.. getting up once for 2 hours is better than 2 or 3 times! I really hope she keeps doing that and is over the waking many times!!! And yesterday I visited my mother (hour long car trip) with no crying!!!
teru - Congrats on finishing your exams! And have a great trip!
kuraiza - Yeah I'm using the dummy now whenever I feel it's necessary. I don't think she sleeps as deeply when she has a dummy in her mouth so I try settling her without it but if it's taking ages I pop the dummy in. It's also great to have for car trips cos she hates being in the car but at the moment the dummy seems to keep her calm. As for more kids.. I'm planning to have them far apart. I wouldn't be able to cope with another one while Maya is still very young. Maybe when she's 3 or 4? What about yourself?
belfie - You're not that old! I'm not that far behind you in age! As for bras.. I think I've been wearing the wrong size maternity bras. I am so annoyed cos I got fitted twice and was told two different sizes. One was too tight and the other was quite loose so I went with the loose fitting cos it's more comfy. And I've assumed that maternity bras are meant to be loose and unsupportive. But I am sick of having bouncy bbs so I went into a store and tried on heaps and I now think I am in between the two sizes I was fitted for and gosh it's more comfy having supported bbs! But I've forked out so much money on maternity bras and now I'm going to have to fork out a whole lot more money on this new size.
Hi to everyone else. Hope you are all having good weekends.
I still don't know how you do it, so well done. I hope the trip goes well too.
