Hey all!

Another el'dodgy night last night. I ended up giving K the EBM because he woke up before his dreamfeed was due and I hadn't replenished enough yet. Joel woke at 11pm and 12am wanting a drink (DH had taken it out of his room for some reason ) and K woke up at 1:15am. I couldn't settle him so I tried to feed him, but he screamed and screamed. I realised at that hour that I have a sore throat and a runny nose so I can only assume K had a sore throat too. After an hour or so he was calm enough to feed, but only fed for a few minutes so I don't think he was hungry. He finally went back to sleep at 3am, but woke again at 5am for his proper feed . He then woke on and off all morning until I got him up at 7am.

Joel went to kinder this morning so I got a little catnap in while he was gone. I gave K a teaspoon of Farex before *crosses fingers*. His rash has gone and the MCHN told me to try a teaspoon of it again when the rash clears up. Hopefully he doesn't react as badly this time. I have also just cooked some potato and will try him on some tonight.

So anyway, some sleep wouldn't go astray right about now!

Mo - Good suggestion about two nappies!

Viv - I used to use plastic pilchers for Joel when he leaked every night. They worked well most of the time. Some nicknames for K: spunkface, bubbadub, many others, but can't think of them right now! Joel ended up with a million nicknames and he didn't have an idenitity crisis lol!

Celtic - Yay for Ryan rolling! What a clever boy! K doesn't roll very often because he is such a heavy boy, but he has rolled twice today so far!

Ange - Hooray for getting back online! Hopefully we will have a meet-up soon so we can meet you in person! I will PM you my website details soon

Rebecca - Bummer your DH is away for so long. I hope Caitlyn's eye gets better soon the poor thing.

Nic - I wouldn't say no if someone came and did my ironing! It is the job I loathe the most.

Saffi - Thanks for the EBM calculations! Re: rusks, I don't think you're meant to give them to your bub until 6 months because of what is in them, but I could be wrong. You could always check with your MCHN. I didn't start with rusks and I haven't had a problem with K eating - the little guts! I have had the reaction problem though.

Willow - Yay for L being more settled again! They like to throw in a dud day every now and then don't they! That's great you don't have to go back to the osteo for a while.

Have a great day everyone!
