A girlfriend said that they may just be teething and it's not a cold-I really don't know. They are happy and feeding and sleeping, just snuffly so maybe it is teething. I bought some bonjela just in case.
My DH is enjoying them a lot more now, they can interact with him and react to him. I guess a newborn to a man is boring but if only they knew how important it is to talk and make eye contact with them. They are just so adorable and I'm so lucky.
Poor Gemma is getting more and more frustrated that she can't roll over. The amazing thing is that when I help her and she is on her tummy she is so happy-she was always the one hating it because of her reflux. She's lifting her head so high, I'm so proud. Miss Teagan seems quite content to just lay there for the time being-all in good time. I think these are the more exciting times for us ahead with major milestones occuring! YAY!
I love being a Mum!
Kirsten appears to have a little cold. She was very grumpy yesterday and cried loudly on the bus and in the cafe at the gym - mummy had just had a lovely swim and sauna so was feeling all relaxed until then!! Then she slept for 12 hours (which is nice but unusual) and snored very loudly, now is quite snuffly and very tired and sleepy, but smiley again. She is very good when sick, thankfully!
you know i thought the other week i cant keep up in both months threads so will just mainly stick to the one Cooper was born in, well just realised he was born in October not November lol, arent i the smart one
Oh my little man is growing up too quickly for me! When he rolls onto his tummy he trys to crawl(im assuming) and gets frustated when he doesnt move an inch lol.
lol, Belinda, don't worry, i actually keep saying the wrong date for my 2 coz they are 11/10 and 11/12.
Well i didn't have to feel sorry for her for long as she is back to normal again..must have been a 24 hour thing!
Still can't get used to her eating less as she was on a growth spurt for so long, we keep trying to feed her and she gets grumpy as she doesn't want it yet!!
We have the same thing with Charlie, mmack. He went through a huge growthspurt for about 2 weeks and kept wanting 240mls every 3 hours now he only wants 180mls every 4 hours.
Tegan..did you find yourself constantly trying to give him more than he wanted afterwards?
It doesn't help that she used to chew her hands when hungry, so we would offer her milk, but now she just does it because she is teething/likes the taste of them
Kate Thanks for the advice. It was quite funny to see their faces when I put the Bonjela in their mouths, but it must have worked they relaxed instantly.
Unfortunately, Gemma, Teagan and myself have a cold. They sound dreadful, I took them to the GP and they said there's nothing they can do since it is viral and to just work through it. They slept so much yesterday which was great, I got some much needed sleep as well. DH was fantastic he had an RDO so he got up and fed them and changed them so I could lay in bed. I feel better today so I should cope well. I'm not breast feeding anymore so I can at least take cold and flu tablets to help ease the running nose.
G&T are loving their hands at the moment, its funny to watch them try and put their whole fist in their mouth, LOL. I noticed Gemma really staring at her hand the other day, it was quite moving to watch actually.
Emma: Great news on your weight loss, your getting there and thats the main thing
Tegan: At least i am not the only one who has no clue when my kids were born lol
Cooper has been sick since last night the poor thing, think he has a virus luke had a couple of days ago, the spew was so huge each time, he covered me, the lounge and himself, was yuck! had to go and have a shower at midnight as it smelt, he does too but will give him a bath soon, dont want to bath him after bottle as i am hoping he might keep this bottle down, he was sick this morning as well and was soaked in it! he seems fine otherwise though, happy enough so i guess its just a bug, will keep my eye on it anyhow
Otherwise the morning sucked, Luke was a smart mouth all morning so i went off, great way to wake up! Then Richard(nephew who lives here) didnt get up for school, gggrr to him, so ended up driving him to school as well, so half an hour trip i didnt want to take!
Otherwise both kids are asleep here for now so pretty quiet so better go get stuck into some floor cleaning, was feeling a bit sick myself before and thought i cant get anyone to come and help me if i get sick cause the house is looking like crap lol
Tegan: Cooper does the same thing, he screams when he cant go anywhere, so he hates tummy time, just tried him with a towel under his chest and he went a bit better with it this time, still doesnt really like it, he has really strong neck muscles so not too worried about it
Cooper just loves sitting up, just doesnt realise we are holding him up lol and gets very cranky when our arms get too tired to hold him there!
Well done on the weight loss Emma, that's something that will make you feel better about yourself once you get to your goal weight. I have about 20kgs to go, ugh!
Belinda it must be going around my girlfriend (Nickers on BB) her son has been throwing up the past two days and now her husband has been as well, I'm worried about her she's only about 6wks pregnant! Hope she doesn't get it. I was at their place on Sat. I'm praying G&T don't get it, their cold is enough to worry about!
I need to go and get changed I can smell chuck on me somewhere!??
Briohny: Yeah it must be and i am hoping i dont get it, always a worry though when someone is in early pregnancy, hope all is ok for her and i hope your kids dont get it either
He seems better now thankfully, kept last bottle down and had a huge sleep, so hopefully he is on the mend now
Hi all,
Just thought i would drop in and see if all is well, sorry to hear some of you have the flu.
My 2yr old is driving me mad at the moment bubs are also having a restless day Cassie thinks they are her bubbies keeps trying to put the dummy in when they are already settled its so anoying.
Went to target to try and get a bath thing for Cooper to be on but they had nothing, ended up getting heaps of outfits for Mason though for 39 dollars so was worth the trip in the end, so he just needs a couple of warm things and he set for size 2 now
Briohny - Please tell Nickers I also had gastro at 6-7 weeks pregnant and obviously Kirsten was fine! In fact I was sick with different bugs for about 75% of the pregnancy..I think babies are tough!!
