    morning kids

    my friend's baby is nothing short of divine. he was 8lbs 10, and is just glorious. he has good looking folks so he's a beauty. I think he has my friend's nose and cheek bones. his tiny bot is so cuuuuuute. *sigh*.

    she looked really well considering. i sure as hell know i didn't look that good. she was even propped up in her chair feeding when i got there. i never sat in the chair, so *shrug*. her dh had the champers ready for us which i thought rocked. good on 'em.

    turns out her placenta was in the way. *curses*. she had exactly the same pre-op drama but is coping really well so far. the little dude was happily snoozing at the boob. i'm glad the Gold coast hospital has a 'put on chest' in op room and a rooming-in policy. she really wanted a lotus birth but the hospital wouldn't allow it.

    it was weird being back in the old labour ward... *shudder*

    about the hair - dh likes it but then he told me i'd be hot bald so... *shrugs*

    i told him i can't function like this so we're going to get some clip-in extensions. if i can indulge your imaginations... yanno patricia heaton in everybody loves raymond with her bad 90s cut, before she had a makeover and surgery? yeah, it's like that. so... i'm not cool with that.

    1996 called, they want their hairstyle back. *whimper*

    my hairdresser was awesome before this. i phoned her and had a whinge but then i know everyone can have a bad day, including them.

    kellied: try epharmacy dot com dot au. if you search for brauer teething relief you'll find it on there for $11.99 and they'll mail it to you.

    Hey all, just a quick check in, I'm still at my mum's living it up lol! K is having a good day today, he did a big poo this morning and seems much happier hee hee!

    Our overnights are still interesting, but I think we are getting there. I'm using a form of controlled crying (don't kick me, nothing else was working and I was about to have a breakdown!), but I am in the room with K the whole time letting him know I'm there. It hasn't been as bad as I thought, he has really just been grizzling and eventually puts himself back to sleep. I'm hoping he will eventually stop the grizzling and just sleep all night (that's what my chiro said should happen). I'll be going home tomorrow, but if things still aren't great after the weekend mum is happy to have us as long as we need the help.

    Viv - Sorry you're not happy with your haircut . There is no way you could look terrible no matter what your hair looked like! ROFL at your 1996 comment

    Nic - I hope Tyron is a bit happier for you today. It's so draining when the gizzle all day.

    Kellie - Yay for Tahlia rolling both ways! K can only go from front to back still, I think he's too heavy to go the other way!

    Hi to everyone else, sorry for no more personals, I've gotta run!

    am considering changing him on the floor because he will not stop trying to roll over the edge of his change table. he leans with all his strength against me. today i let him roll off into my arms so he could see what would happen, although i think he thought it was fun.

    he's mashing my touchpad and buttons as i type. god, where did the lump go?

    Viv - L does the same thing!

    Trish - glad to hear you're finding it easier being at your mum's. Hope you get your nights sorted. L is being a turkey today, has done 2 45 min naps, which he hasn't done for weeks and weeks now. He's in bed now, coming up to 2 hours so not sure what the problem is..I hope it's not the start of something bad!!

    so, i've managed to stave off the solids thing for the final month of exclusive BF but i'm now ready to start doing the real solids intro. my question is... are you doing milk/formula first or food first? do you have a schedule as to when/how much?

    some say you should do milk first so they get all the nutrients then try a spoonful or two of solids after. some say do the opposite.

    thoughts? (apart from falguni who is eating it straight off the hoof these days) ;P
