I like to share info and experiences with you ladies and offer advice if and when I can - I don't think I am judgemental either. Zander is are 1 - 4 weeks older than other bubs in here - hence the talk of solids by me - as it pertains to me.
Teruteru: Congrats on your studies and best of luck for your exam results. What language do your ILs speak? Are you going to encourage your kids to be bilingual? I desperately wish I spoke another language. I lived in Japan for 2 years and failed miserably to learn Japanese, although I did learn to read 2 of the character sets and some of the third. I think my language centre in my brain is not connected quite right. Now I've been learning Esperanto, because it's easy to learn (although not actually spoken anywhere in the world, therefore not overly useful).
I'm thinking of seeing if Jude's interested in Solids. I have a feeling he is (he's so interested in watching us eat and lately he chews when I am chewing), but if I offer food and he's plainly not interested I won't push the issue. He's great with his vowels but not really moving on to consonants, so I'm wondering if eating will help develop his speech (I've heard it does). NOT that I'm worried at all about his speech, I just want to hear him say Ma Ma, although he has said "mon m?re" a few times, because apparently he thinks he's French
I'll let you all in on a little secret. I didn't speak until the day before my 3rd birthday and now I don't shut up. My great-uncle didn't speak until he was 4, and he turned out to be a genius, and Einstein didn't speak until he was 5 (so i've heard, but I probably should research that claim).
Yep Sami solids for us was DS1 2001 (4mths), DS2 2003 (4mths), DS3 2005 (4-6mths), DS4 (6mths), it always seems to be changing.
Well Julian had his physio appointment yesterday, he's head can turn to the left, but he's got a tilt to the left now which we've got exercises for and hopefully in a few months it will be better. He got his needles this morning too, so will have to see how he goes.
Sorry but just a quick one, I am going to a WW meeting today. First one. So need to leave soon.
I have been having a bit of trouble getting into BB, is anyone else experiencing it too? I end up getting frustrated and go off doing something else.
Anyway last week my mum had a heart attack and was transferred to RPA, anyway they did tests there and told her that if she was at RPA when she had it then they would have been able to be on top of it quicker, so ended up sending her home the next day. Anyway she has been told to be resting for 2weeks and then rehab. She seems ok atm.
V has been abit unsettled of a night, well more like wanting to play. Anyway will catch up when I get back, if I can get on anyway.
Well as I tried to post this earlier, my update is I am now a WW member, hehehe.
Belfie, I know you sadi that you were doing WW online, are you posting in the forums? If you are what is your user name going to be?
Ohh and as for feeding with all of mine they would look up eyes wide open licking lips to eat, hehehe. Which was at 4mths. V isnt showing any signs of being interested just yet, but I am expecting her too soon. hugs
hey csab! good luck at WW!! I'm hoping to sign up for WW online tomorrow - provided I finish the BAS today! It's my deadline... cos X is 5 months old tomorrow so it's kinda neat. My username will prolly be belfie if I can have it. I'm just belfie... it's just me IYKWIM. Even DH calls me belfie half the time lol. I'm still waiting to be out somewhere in public and have a BB member overhear me being called belfie lol.
K, stop procrastinating now belfie! Back to it! *cracks whip*
kuraiza- dragon's gonna b trilingual if we can keep at it. DP is viet & im chinese hence the problem with communicating with the ILs. im slowly learning a few words cos we're teaching dragon but its hard to keep up cos DP & i usu speak english to each other
amanda- hope the needles went well.
csab, belfie- whats WW?
csab- hope ur mum gets better soon. as for BB, ive been told the server is being overloaded so sometimes its hard to get on, but they're getting a 2nd server soon
I've finally had it with Maya taking forever to go to sleep! I keep thinking I don't have a problem because there are other babies out there who wake every hour. But once Maya is asleep she can do long stretches. Like last night it took 2 hours to get her to go to sleep but then she slept for 5 1/2 hours in a row. So I keep thinking that's not a problem. But it is a problem cos I've had enough and it's getting worse and worse. She was doing so well 4 weeks ago. I could sometimes put her down awake and give her a bit of a pat and she'd go straight to sleep. Other times I'd have to rock her for 5 mins. But now it takes ages to get her to go to sleep. And my DH hasn't helped cos he thinks there's no problem and thinks sleep school will be a waste of time. But he's not the one rocking her to sleep all day & night long!
Anyway I've finally rung around all the sleep schools and put my name down on waiting lists. I hope something comes up soon!
