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.
Tanya: Breastfeeding bras are meant to be very supportive. You have a little baby tugging on your boobs, stretching the muscles and skin and you need to keep your boobs firmly supported to stop them sagging and dragging on the ground.
The jury's out on whether we'll have another baby. I think it's likely because I always wanted 2 babies, but with this lack of sleep thing I've been rethinking things. However, if we do have another child the earliest we'll be trying to conceive will be August 2010.
kuraiza - Yeah I can really feel the difference with the new bra. I'm actually really p***ed off that I had TWO proper bra fittings and they were BOTH wrong! And then I spent lots of money buying bras in the wrong size. What's the point of getting properly fitted then?!?
It sounds like you'll wait as long as we will to have another child. I've decided that I will definitely have a second one, but the earliest we'd start trying is mid-late next year. That way Maya will be around 3 and can maybe go to early kinder.
Question: Where do your babies sleep? In your room or another room? And do they sleep in a cot or bassinet or in your bed? And if they are in another room how do you hear them (do you have a monitor or do you just hear them when they cry loudly?)? - hmm.. I guess that's questions not question.
Jude sleeps in his own room in a cot. His room is next door to ours and we leave his door open and ours open just a crack. We live in a small rented apartment, I can hear him from anywhere.
I also was properly fitted for maternity bras 3 or 4 times, and every time I was told something different. I also wasted money on expensive bras. I now live in my Big W soft-something bra that cost $20 or something.
Tanya - maybe your BB size changed? I got fitted in late PG, but I don't like what was available (think granny-style with a big seam across it that shows under t-shirts!) and find it very difficult to find things I like/fit properly. When I've been to Target & Big W just NOTHING fits me! I can't wait until I'm back to a C-cup again and can actually fit into more mainstream stuff! So I'm with you on spending a fortune. And lol I shouldn't joke around my age, it's just my way so I don't take myself too seriously teheh. Really we're 35 and 33 years young
Oh and X sleeps in his cot in his own room - we leave the doors open usually but also have a baby monitor which gets used when I have any of our 2 cats or 1 dog inside, so I can safely shut his door & still hear him. One of my cats has decided that a cot is surely nothing but a cat-sized bed and makes a beeline for it. So our door-shut policy has become even stricter! We tried him in our room but he snored so loud it just didn't work - was my first preference tho.
So saying, DH has snored so loud that i've slept in the lounge the last 2 nights!
We just had a family picnic in the park with my mother's group - 9 bubbas plus hubbies too. Was heaps of fun seeing how different all the babies are - we put them in a big circle & took piccies tehehe.
we only got 2 eggs last cycle and only 1 was viable (and that 1 is Jack)
And yesterday I visited my mother (hour long car trip) with no crying!!!
