Babies Born October 2007 #24

[~kellie~]

Trish - we gave her some more yesterday, and I'll give her some more today

When do you start to make the quantity bigger? And how many days should I wait before I give her something else?

Ange - a 5 month old and pregnant! OMG! She will have her work cut out for her! A friend of mine is due at the end of June, and her 1st child hasn't even turned 1 yet!

Congrats to the bubs that are crawling! I hope Tahlia doesnt start any time soon, my house is far from child proof and I am having enough trouble with her rolling across the room as it is!

Heya all

Saffi - Glad you had a great time with your god-daughter. Yup, it is hard soetimes with 2 babies. But twice as rewarding! I must say, being pregnant, mainly just the first 3 months was EXHAUSTING!!! Luckily I had my Mum close by so if I was having a really yucky day or Liam was playing up a bit, she would come and help me! Ya definately need that. I Couldnt imagine having 3 at the moment tho. I think baby number 3 has been pu off for the VERY distant future!

Amber - Woot for Myles! He'll be walking next! Chels is trying so hard but still cant quite worl out the arms!

Trish - Yay on the mattress! I always think they are a great investment. We bought a new one when I found out I was pregnant with Liam. Could not handle being 9 months pregnant on a crappy mattress - LOL.

NT - Yeah I dont use a growbag yet either - I havent found it quite cold enough here yet, although the last few wekks are defintely getting there.

My little girl has a bad cold at the moment. She can hardly beathe at night poor little thing. She has only ever had 1 cold before but this one is a doozy! Using the humidifeier but I dont think its doing a lot. Just keeping her dosed up on Panadol, Fess and Baby Balsam. Just gotta ride it out.

So any body in this group planning on TTC anytime soon?

M's finally cut her 1st tooth surprisingly she wasn't that cranky but it's explains why she went off her food.

Kellie-Pretty sure you suppose to introduce new foods every 3 days or so.

Becky hope Chelsea gets better soon, that cold sounds nasty.

Had a bit of a read whats going on.

Mo im sorry to hear about your mum.

Nic yay for 3 teeth...the party pics were great too. Well done on the cute cake!

Viv i hope James does not get the cold to bad.

Celtic poor Ryan...he def not having a good time with health....good size though...you should be happy there

Yay on Myles crawling..thats fantastic!

Becky i hope poor Chels gets better soon. I hate seeing babies sick.

Trish im looking at buying a new bed too....we just got Chelsea's bed and that was $800 so saving for our own now! Kids first

Having 2 kids close (very close) was damn hard at first but once you have a routine it becomes part of everyday life!

As for TTC...yep all going well here :P

Both girls gone down to sleep....2-3 hours of peace!!! Me time begins

[boomba]

TTC Not a chance!!! hahahaha! My poor hubby is so deprived! I say good on you if you can have them close! I would love to but my brain and sleep is saying no!

Kim whats your secret.........?Cant believe your TTC again! Good luck! You make beautiful babies, maybe this one will be blue!

Viv! ha! I will send him to your house so you cans see what to move for when James starts to crawl!

Mo yay for Maddi cutting a tooth! Still waiting for one here!

Becky hope Chels gets better soon! I will msg you tonight! x

Kellie! We have to constantly move things, but he always seems to find something he shouldn't have!

Saffi Myles is a wriggler! But he is in my bed from when i go to bed so he doesn't wake up then! Maybe check on him before you got to bed and move him back down the end?

Trish don't you love anew bed! And you can use it now that K is sleeping better!

Nick so glad the party went well! Saw some pics on FB and it looked like fun!

Sorry if I missed anyone!

not much happening here! just got the crawling machine to bed! Went to an ABA meeting today and it was really good! So might keep going!
anyway cant think of anything else to say except Hi babies!!!!!! have a good day!

Afternoon all!
my weekend was pretty good - got to sleep for AGES on Sat night - C slept from 730 until 530! Woohoo but of course I knew it wouldnt last - down at 6 last night up at 1130,2,330 and 5 so am feeling the effects today!
Am ticked off at DH's boss - his 1 day off and he calls them all into work to discuss mistakes that have been happening - nothing that couldnt wait until this morning. Oh well - at least DH will get paid for 4 hours work when he was only there for 1.5 - beside the point but I wont push it!
Crawling - WTG on the bubs that have that motivation! I can barely get C to stay on her tummy for more than 5 mins - but that is longer than what she used to do so we are getting there. I am starting to think she will walk before she crawls though!
Solids - hmmm I wonder if I am over feeding my little bundle of.....joy! She has 3 meals a day... each between 1 and 2 ice cubes a go. She eats just about anything and is now shoving bits of toast into her mouth! Maybe she is eating too much to even think about crawling??
And of course its that time again - needles tomorrow morning not looking forward to it thats for sure. She has been so very very sooky lately so I cannot imagine what she will be like tomorrow.
Has anyone moved to the "stage 2" formulas? Is there any point? I have looked for info but havent found a lot.
Gro/sleeping bags - Am determined to leave C unwrapped starting Friday night. And as it is getting quite cool out here at nights I will be using a sleeping bag for her. I bought a grobag when she was about 1 month old but she has well and truly grown out of it now.
Anywya - got dishes to do and clothing to sort out - she is now too big for 00 so am sorting through the small 00, the normal 00 and the large 00(which she still fits!) - will take a while me thinks.
Have a great afternoon all - mwah

rebecca- i was wondering if i fed Lu too much. She has 3 meals a day. 4-6 tablespoons for breaky, 4-6 for lunch and i'd say about a metric cup for dinner! Last night she had half an avocado, 6ish T of steak brocolli and carrot, then about 4 T of yoghurt and pear!! She loves her food. If you are feeding too much then i definately am!!!! She lets me know if she wants more or if she's had enough though. I think you just have to follow their lead.
