Viv - yeah, a bit. Funny since being on Mat Leave I haven't really missed work at all. Miss the money tho. I definitely think my mind is turning to custard so looking forward to some adult conversations that don't involve bodily functions.
Kellie - what a cute story to tell your nephew. I hope the tooth fairy heard it.
Trish - thank you! I am proud of myself. At least I know I didn't give up through lack of trying. Wow, your mum is excellent. I wish someone would come over and do my housework!

Did a new playtime activity with L today. I made bubbles and blew them towards him. He was captivated and knew that I was making them. When they popped he would turn to me as if to say "c'mon mum make some more". Can't wait until he can make them himself.

Hi all

Havent been on for a while. Just thought I'd drop by and say hi.

Hope you are all well. We ar doing great here. Of course Chels has her good and bad days, but she is definately a happy little critter. Have a good week!

hello Becky!
Trish- failure certainly NOT. you keep chugging along no matter what.
i paid the deposit for our house today yippee! but it settles the day b4 my gf's wedding that i am in the bridal party, so that night and the following night we wont be home oh well.....
the boys were very well behaved whilst i dragged them around the bank/real estate/council etc.
i let Nixon walk (with his monkey harness) most of it, he is much happier that way & i had Tyron in the front of the phil & Ted and when Nixon wanted a rest he sat in the back!
thinking of trying Tyron with some solids over the next few days, he's a week of 6months and starting to make mouth movements whilst watching us eat (like he's liking his lips lol)
ok bed time, good night

and starting to make mouth movements whilst watching us eat (like he's liking his lips lol)

Nic - L is doing this too and has even started to try to snatch food out of my hands when I'm eating!! LOL. But our chubby bub is doing just fine without so we'll hold off another few weeks.

Morning

Well I've decided that I'm going to stop taking the meds as of today. I will express whats left and expect that by the end of the week that it will be all gone. As I've said before for what I'm getting its just not worth going through the effort.

Becky - hi
Nic - oooooo, one step closer to your house. How exciting!!
Going to introduce solids in the next week or so. L is also very interested in our food and watching us.

Off to the child clinic today to weigh L. He is growing so rapidly. After over 3 months in 0000 clothes he has grown out of many of his 000 clothes, especially long legged jumpsuits as he is quite long.

Have a good day. BBL

Hi girls

so much tocatch up on! Sounds like all the bubs are teehting or have teeth! How exciting!

Myles may be teething cause he is whingey and clingy, but spose I wont know till the tooth comes through!
Myles is pulling himself up onto things now which is amazing! He still wont sit up by himself, but I have been saying to DH that he will walk before he sits up! He is just so determind to move around!
He hasnt fallen off the bed again which is great, but DH has started slepping on the floor so we can have the bed, I always said I wouldnt co sleep but its the only way I get decent rest, since he is still up quite abit at night!

Nic congrats on the deposit how exciting!
Saffi are the meds to help you make milk? Have you tried fenurgreek? I used it and my supply went beserk!
Kellie what a great story you told your nephew may have to steal that one

Amber - hi there! Poor DH having to sleep on the floor. KWYM about getting a better sleep when bubs is in bed with you. I have taken to bringing L back to bed when he wakes at around 6am. We are also still up 2 - 3 times overnight. Saw on another thread you read Pinky's book. May need to borrow it.

Yes, have been on Motilium for 3+ months. I did try fenugreek but wasn't on it long enough to really notice an increase before I went onto the meds. GP advised not to be on both at the same time.

What a clever boy Myles is. Won't be long from the sounds of things. Think L will be crawling soon. Just noticed that he fully extended his arms to push himself up off the floor.
