Viv – Yeah we normally use huggies sensitive, non fraganced wipes = have since she was born. But in the past 2 days I have just been using cotton wool and boiled water (trust me the water out here is 50% bore water so it’s a bit harsh anyway!). No improvement – not worse but no better. Off to the doc in about an hour so will see how we go. Congrats on the little man and his walking/pushing efforts! Caitlyn is still pretty much immobile on the floor – she goes backwards and because of that and her mammoth play on the floor effort on the weekend she has irritated her eczema and it now looks like she might have carpet burn!!!
Ange – I have to admit that C has turned into one of those babies that I can put her in her cot for her sleep and she will grizzle for about a minute and then eiher play till she falls asleep or just roll on her side and nod off. I wouldn’t say that she is wide awake when I put her down but she is more than half awake. When she starts sooking and rubbing her nose its time to put her in there.
Dianne – that would have freaked me out too. Caitlyn has started pulling this face – scrunches up her nose and breathes really hard out of it – snorts almost! Found out where she got that from….DH!!! He has been pulling that face at her constantly!!!
I still give Caitlyn mashed stuff – moved out of puree over the weekend really. She now also gets some of that small Heinz pasta in her vege pots. But it has to be finely mashed…just above a puree I think. She does the gag face and a little spill comes out but its more for the attention I think cause its not for every mouthful.
Trish – my house looks like a bomb site no matter what day of the week it is!! I just cannot seem to keep up with it anymore. Am tempted to have a “sicky” just to get stuck in and get it cleaned properly. I took a day off a few weeks ago for that very reason but ended up catching up on missed sleep and eating tim tams on the couch!!
Kelli- woohoo on the crawling – as above C is going backwards but REALLY wants to master the forwards thing!!
Anyway - off to the Dr soon to see about this horrible nappy rash - am scared I am going to be told off for leaving it for so long Baaaaad mummy!!!
I hope you are all having a good day - even if it does involve housework!! MWAH
