yay, new thread i like

OMG i feel like an alien...ive got a really bad outbreak of hives & i dont know how it started!!!

OK Maya slept for an hour before so I managed to have a shower. I've now put her down for a second nap today, so will use the time to respond to personals!

Tanstar - Thanks for the info on what AF stands for! I knew it meant period but just couldn't make words with A and F that meant period! Now that you've said Aunt Flo I'm thinking that's really obvious! I think I have to search for that abbreviations thread you mentioned!

Georgi - I am finding that Maya has been coming off the breast less since I started reclining while feeding. Though I wish I had a recliner. I am trying to use pillows on the couch but it's not very good for my back! Anyway, she seems to be eating more I think.. and she seems to vomit more now! Which I think is a sign that she's getting more food in her belly.. I guess maybe too much food though?! Her weight gains have always just been OK, so I'm hoping with the new feeding routine she can have some good weight gains!

kuraiza - I hope Jude is still being an angel for you! Sounds like you had a great day out!

belfie - Maya's poos smell more suddenly too. But I thought the smell might be from the vaccinations?! Oh and thanks for the settling tips from the settling course you did. I'm trying to use them lately. I just had to go in and rock her in her bassinet! It took a while but she eventually calmed and closed her eyes.

amy - Love your avi! As for Xmas shopping I've been doing some of mine online! Saves me from having to go out and they wrap the pressies and send them direct!

katones - It's nice to know other bubs hate being wrapped too! Yep I have to resettle after wrapping and then resettle again after putting Maya down for a sleep!

Hello to everyone I've missed!

Well so far today Maya slept till 9am (after waking once in the night), then had an hours nap at 11am and I put her down for another nap at 2pm and I'm hoping she stays asleep for at least an hour. For both naps I've had to resettle very soon after putting her down. But so far she has had more sleep today than she did the previous three days! I really think it was cos my mother kept getting her up and then I would struggle even more to put her back to sleep. Cos settling her when she's already wrapped and ready for bed is easier than starting from scratch each time! It's disappointing though cos I thought my mother would be a big help but found her to be a PITA instead!

Arghh.. I was posting this and the thread disappeared! But I found the new one!

No personals from me cos I have no idea how you ladies managed to do more than 30 or something posts this morning alone

It is so weird that we are up to #3 thread, when for our preg belly buddies we struggled to get to #3! Obviously we have a lot more to say and know each other a lot better.

I know some of you are having hard times with your bubs so what I am about to say is in no way bragging - well just bit.

GAWD I just lurve my little fella - he is so placid - but I truly believe that is also something to do with the environment - I don't have time to stress too much about him IYKWIM??? He has a bad feed, oh well, time to do school run - he is getting tired, wrap him cuddle for a minute then in the cot cos someone needs some food -etc.

I just went to a work Christmas lunch - got to the office at 11.30 - Zander had fallen asleep on walk from car to office. He woke as we were walking to restaurant - and just happily looked around etc. At restaurant he was cuddled by about 5 different people and lots of others coo-cooing in his face - he showed off and smiled heaps. He got tired after all that, I put my sling on, and he just drifted off to sleep for an hour. Then it was time to go home - of course everyone commented how good he was - and he really was super good LOL. I have just fed him and wrapped him and he is down for another nap. It is good to have sanity saver days like this

Plus, I put make-up on - shock horror - felt really good with my new hair-cut - so I think that all shows and he gets those good vibes too.

But, DH gone away again tonight so fingers crossed a good night as well.

I could go back for another one if I could get a guarantee - nah, our family is complete and I am OK with that.
