Heya girls.
Trish - I had a sinus infection when I was prg and OMG, it was the WORST! I was in that much pain because my head was all blocked up I couldn't sleep for 3 nights. Was awful. Hope the antib's are kicking in. Bugger about K missing his morning nap, L missed his middle of the day sleep today because we were out so he only dozed on and off in the car. He's asleep now though, 2hrs 45 mins and counting! He does have pretty cool hair! Everywhere I take him people comment on it. When he gets out of the bath the curl is really tight, I hope it stays that way. Re b/feeding - L usually only takes about 5-10 mins and then he's done. I think K is doing fine, I wouldn't worry about it. The older they get, the faster and more efficient they get.
Kim - awww, thanks matey! I preferred the pic that they printed in the paper, you can see L a lot better, but I was pretty happy with them overall.
Saffi - WTG on getting L to sleep thru! Must admit though that all that expressing sounds like hard work?
Nickers - sounds like you had a big weekend! We took the kids down to the river today for some lunch and a play but it was soooo hot we had to come home after about an hour. Speaking of men - when we got there, DH ran into some of his mates who'd been down their fishing, so 40 mins later they go and we finally get our 'family' time that DH had planned
Wrapping - I'm planning on wrapping DS till winter, he'll be about 5 months by then so should be ready to stop being wrapped (I like to wrap my bubs till about then, I find they sleep better if their arms aren't flapping around!) and then we'll switch to a grobag or something similar. My SIL brought him one but it looks huge so not sure if he'll be big enough for it then (supposed to be 6-18 months). That said, he has grown out of most of his wraps and gets his arms out in about a minute flat, so I had my mum make me some which are 1.5m and they are much better. He can still get his arms out, but not as easily.
L has been really fussy while feeding the last few days. It started out with him wanting to 'chat' instead of feed but then it was like he wasn't interested at all! He has fed well today though so I hope it was just a passing phase. Nothing more stressful than a baby who won't feed (except maybe for one who won't sleep?? LOL)
