Nickers - thanks for the advice. I would hate him to have surgery, but if it corrects a problem and prevents future learning difficulties, then of course we would need to have it done. He does stop breathing for a few seconds, five at the most sometimes, but I do that too so wasn't too concerned. He sleeps about 10-11 hours a night and about 3 hours during the day which seems normal. I will mention it to the GP when I visit next though as I would rather be on the safe side. DH snores but that might be an adult thing rather than a baby thing. Right now Caden is snuffly due to the flu so will take him when he is better.
Celtic - LOL about the shower. In the early days that was my one oasis of calm in an otherwise frantic day and DH would always comment on how long I spend in there. I figure a bit of water is cheaper than a nanny, a cleaner and a therapist, so he shouldn't be complaining!
Pish - it is hard to quarantine yourself when sick, I know if we did we wouldn't have been out for the last couple of months! Although we might not have gotten sick, the house-blues would have been far worst. I am sure she will be fine.
Minimax - my FIL has to be hooked up to a machine that opens his airways, otherwisse he has really bad sleep apnoea and snores badly. He said now that he has the machine it is like being able to breathe, he never realised how bad it was. He used to eat with his mouth open because his nose was blocked. Just goes to show how important those two little holes are
Boomba - cupid, cool! that would be so gorgeous. For Caden's first birthday I am hoping to make him a sailor outfit. I made a bee one for an event a while ago and he was the cutest thing
Saffi - Childcare seems a haven for every bug under the sun, but having said that, Caden is in family day care and has passed on more germs than he has gotten from there unknowingly of course! I have never been so sick in all my life than the last couple of months. First the flu, then a small bout of gastro (I even thought I might be pg) then a BIG dose of gastro through the whole family, now the flu AGAIN! It is hard enough taking care of yourself, but throw in a cranky DH and an irritable bub, and things start blurring together to become one big messy picture that is my life Hopefully it will be over soon
Sorry if I have missed anyone, I only can get on here every couple of days so struggle to keep up! Have a great weekend
Well it was liams first day at kindy today. It started off awful, I stayed with him for about an hour and then when I was leaving, he kicked and screamed and was shouting 'Mummy!!" For as far as I could hear him. Broke my heart, I think I cried for the next hour, LOL
Anyway I rang a few times and they said he was ok, and by the time I went to pick him up, he was having fun. I asked him if he wanted to go back next week and he said, "Yes!!" So that is good, I was so worried about him but he was better than I thought he would have been.
I have found though this afternoon he has been very clingy and cuddly towads me so maybe he is scared I am going to leave him again, poor baby...
Anyway how is everyone else? Furiously getting birthday parties ready I guess? Am I the only one who is not really having a party for CHels? Id love to but not really any of our family are up here in QLD apart from my parents so there isnt much point. We will have a nice quiet family dinner I think. She is bound to get very spoilt though!
Dragonbub - I hope you get DS snoring issues sorted out, poor little thing...
Tiff - Have a fantastic time in Sydney!!!!
Oh gosh I havent been on in a few days and i cant remember what was said on the last page. Sorry guys, will make a better attempt next time Hope your all well!!!
Dragonbub- Agreed! Where we are you get so much free water before you need to start paying and our last water bill was $6 so I think we can cope if I escape for an extra long shower to regain sanity every now and then!
Pish- I know! I'm there relaxing away in the shower and if bubs is awake suddenly I've got DP, Ryan and two cats in the bathroom with me, need a lock on the door me thinks! lol
Got a scare yesterday got a call from the daycare centre come get ryan he has a temp, a rash and is bleeding from his ear, get an emergency appointment at the dr and his temp is coz he's been left in the sun to play with a jumper and tracksuit and has a bit of sunburn, his rash is either the harmless viral rash he had before now hes off antibiotics or that he was rolling around in the sand pit and fake grass and the blood is because he scratched down in his ear! Ahhh *stress* lol
unknowingly of course! I have never been so sick in all my life than the last couple of months. First the flu, then a small bout of gastro (I even thought I might be pg) then a BIG dose of gastro through the whole family, now the flu AGAIN!
