Morning girls.. someone pleeeease save me from killing the idiots over the road, they are wizzing around on pocket bikes making a hell of a noise..
I can't complain if Bella wakes though, she slept last night from 8pm til 4.30 this morning, had a slurp boob and went to sleep then woke at 8.30am had a slurp and a change and is still asleep. Makes up for the night before , I had to pick ds up from a halloween party at midnight and it disturbed her sleep so she screamed for 2 hrs.
Had her weighed on friday and she is now 4.5kg;s and has grown 7cm since birth - yay, she is still a wee one though and probably weighs what most babies weigh at birth.
Pam - oooher luv, I am praying all is ok and you get good news about the lumps. Ummm sling is good, back is not. I am in agony today, so will have to try and limit the time she is in there me thinks.
captain - lol about our DH's, mine so proudly offered to do dinner the other night, RED ROOSTER - I am so sick of take out. I am ordering a stack of lite and easy dinners today so I at least get a decent feed.
Hi to all, hope you are going well and getting heaps of rest. Take care xx
Sorry I can't do personals, I've only just got the computer working again and I have so much to do in preparation for the wedding. 2 weeks today! ARGH!
Seven had a crap night last night, was awake from 11-2.15am. I was in bed trying to sleep while DF had a go at settling her. I blew up at him yesterday, while he was at work no less! I had had it with being the only person that ever did anything for Seven. I told him I felt like a single parent, and yes, it hurt him, but he seemed a little more switched on when it came to dealing with Muffin last night, so heres hoping!
I think we had a bad night because we strayed from 'The Routine', so back to it tonight!
I also think she is about to discover her hands! She has been watching her right hand this morning and trying ever so hard to get it in her mouth! Succeeded mostly with whopping herself in the eye or the nose, but she's trying!
She had another play date with her friend Hala, who is 4 1/2 months old, and it is uncanny how alike both the girls are!
Anyhoo, Pam ~ I wish you all the best with that lump issue.
Yay, things have improved dramatically here. Ashlyn slept for 6hours last night.
Turns out I was putting her to bed to late. By 8 o'clock she was past it, so I've moved the whole bed time routine forward and had her in be by 7 and she went straight down without a fuss. (Until the dog barked, but then just a quick cuddle and she went right back.) So if this continues I'll have some time to relax in the evenings.
Ashlyn also had her first laugh on Saturday. Ever since then she does nothing but smile, she's such a happy baby now that she's sleeping better.
Kell, Hope your DH stays a bit more switched on now and helps out. That's so cute that Seven is finding her hands. It's so amazing watching them learn something new every day.
Sue, Lite and easy sounds like a good idea. I'm sick of takeaway too. Danielle was at her grandmas on the weekend and I couldn't be bothered cooking so we ended up with pizza .
Well, sounds like Danielle is awake (the girls like to tag team, Ashlyn goes down, Danielle gets up) so it's time for breakfast!
Hi girls,
Been tested now the waiting game, Wednesday is the big day. Poor baby girl is so miserable, I can't even hold her at the moment, it's all dad and she is really out of sorts, so sad!!!! I have had a few cries myself out in sympathy with her....and she has had hardly any sleep, hopefully it means that tonight she willsleep through and DH won't have to worry about getting her back to sleep after the 3.00am feed.
Yesterday we went to the beach for a relaxing day out (kind of) we found out Poppy won't sleep in the pram for more than 15 mins at a time, she is so used to being wrapped up or in the pouch, so pram is in the car and we will be taking that out more often to get her used to it, way to hot to carry her for much longer and she is getting very heavy!!! Upside was that lack of sleep through the day meanta 8.30pm bedtime and a wake up of 5.15am
Captain, tag team lol, sometimes I am sure it would be lovely if they slept at the same time. Cute that Ashlyn is beginning to laugh, Poppy has started to smile lots and has tried to laugh, but can't quite get it out, can't wait to hear it.... The smile is cute enough it's a bit lopsided and she winks as she does it.
Thanks for the support I am hoping that I will still have some milk left and she will be willing to feed.
Kell, 2 weeksyikes the pressure must be really on, no wonder you are feeling so alone just the stress of organizing everything, without a new baby. I bet you feel heaps better after it's happened.
Sue, lite an easy sounds good, I did it after Sophie was born and lost all my weight, was a bit over it by that time and that was 6 weeks. Really enjoyed the first few weeks. I am sick of takeaway, the only thing is still have to cook for the rest of the family!!!!Damn the motorbikes, we are really lucky and don't have much action around here.
Where are the rest of you girls???? Hope all is well, to you all and kisses to babies..
I'm still here jus been really busy. My aunty is over from adelaide and is being a huge help cause Dh is away. kind of like the mother i wish i had.
We are going ok Emily has been a bit unsettled so I think she is having a growth spurt.
I have just had a blocked duct which wasn't much fun. I felt really feverish and awful!
Pam, wishing you the best for today. Hope all goes well.
Eej, blocked duct sounds awful. Hope your feeling better.
Not to much going on here. Ashlyn is improving with her sleeps and has been going 6 hrs every night except for last night when I decided to go to bed early when she did, lol. We got to see the photos we had taken and they are really good. It's a bit pricey but they've done a great job. There's a really cute one of Ashlyn that will be pair with close ups of her hands and feet, and a really nice family shot. Can't wait to get them and hang them up.
