MIL’s – Don’t even get me started!!! I am still trying to get over the fact that she bathed my baby (my less than a week old baby) after consuming 3 bottles of wine!! Or the fact that we went out for 15 mins and left C with her and she gave her a dummy – that I had loudly and repeatedly said I didn’t want! Anyway – she is now in Darwin – far far away. Goes to her other g/daughters 3rd birthday after only 1 month but can’t make the effort to come and see us for Caitlyn’s 1st birthday. My only relief is that she doesn’t criticise me – but she lays it on DH thick and fast! He is a “terrible son”. Anyway – I could go on all day about the damage that she has done to her son and his new family but I don’t think I will bore you with the details!!
Saffi – Ewwwww on the spew!! But, how freaky is this, just as I was reading that post daycare called to let me know, as a courtesy, that Caitlyn had just had a power spew! All over herself. I think my little chubba bubba has eyes that are bigger than her stomach and she over ate. AT least I hope that’s all it is. Although I must admit I would like a day off! But wont be much of a day off if I am looking after Caitlyn!
Willow – am thinking of you and the whole wrap/sleep thing – it can’t be easy for you!
Caitlyn slept from 7pm until 3 this morning and then I just couldn’t settle her. She would roll over and look/sound like she was asleep but in reality she was just waiting for me to get back to bed and get comfy and warm before she woke up and started talking/crying!
Trish – great that Joel actually enjoyed going to Kinder today! Makes it easier! Caitlyn isn’t doing much other than rolling – one way! She doesn’t roll from belly to back yet but she tries oh so hard to get there! She is getting up on her hands and knees but doesn’t stay for long and if I leave her for a little she ends up pushing herself backwards along the floor.
Viv – Not great about the nurse!! Can you find out if she is on before you make the appointment? Nothing like leaving an appointment disappointed or thinking that things didn’t go as expected!
Oh – the nappy rash – fungal infection!! What a bad mum I am for leaving it this long!! Got some cream for it and put it on after bath last night and this morning it is looking soooo much better!! I can’t put it on the spot on her tummy cause she has a little carpet burn (no tummy time for a little bit) but once that heals I can put it on to clear it up. Little baby skin heals in no time so I cannot wait for my little girl to not have an itchy foo foo!!
Had better head off – am at work as per usual bored out of my brain. I hope you are all having a fantastic day! MWAH
