Donna don't feel silly for being excited about Molly on the go, it isexciting, I can't wait for Poppy to start rolling, laughing etc, but at the same time want it to slow down, cause you don't get those firsts again. Be excited hun!!!!!!! You can buy a mat for tummy time, it comes with a roll for them to lie on, Big W has them for under $20, have a look on ebay, often are listed there and you can see what they are about. Don't buy it there though, every one I have seen listed makes more than a new one????
Liberty is getting heaps chubby, little rolly polly with her cankles. So cute!! she's 5.65kg now little fatty put on over 400g in the last fortnight!! - since i started alternating bottlefeeds/booby
can't believe it about the pregnancy thread either, this time last year I was all mopey and depressed that my SIL was pregnant and after TTC most of the year I still wasn't. I didn't find out I was pregnant until late January (my periods were always all over the place so it wasn't strange for it to be late). It's amazing what can happen in a year.
donna i would be over the moon if liberty did that, you have every right to be excited! it's hard to get her to have tummy time now that she can roll from her tummy to her back. i haven't used a special mat, just brightly coloured quilts on the floor and i have toys that she can reach for (not that she's going to reach for them but its something for her to aim at and look for). if you do want to offer the extra support, you can roll up a small towel or terry nappy under their chest. another cute option is to lay back on the bed with bubby on your chest and let them push up to look around.
Wow a new thread for us and a new thread for sep next year. That's crazy. This time last year I didn't know i was pg, we hadn't been trying just dtd and bam! I found out on the early Jan after a head ct and an MRI. Wow I love thiking about when we found out. The excitement!
Well we had a nice time in Noosa, Em was an angel on the plane. she slept most of the way up and back.
We are looking forward to christmas, there seems to be so many presents under our tree. My birthday was nice to, I got a lovely locket off DH I have put a pic of Emily inside, I need one of him so I have them both with me all the time.
I have started Emily sleeping in her cot in her room during the day. She sleeps well in there. Not ready for her to go in at night tho. I like having her next to me.
I can't believe our bubs are enarly four months old...its crazy.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!!!!!! Thanks to everyone in this group, its so special to have you all to talk to. Have a safe and happy holiday!
Donna I am glad Molly is better today! It's not nice when they are upset and you can't work out why or how to fix it Might it have been a tummy or bum pain?? Ashton sometimes screams and the only thing I can put it down to is wind pain I think you should be excited!! I was when Ash started pushing himself on his tummy, in fact I came in the thread and bragged lol It is very exciting when they reach their milestones!! Try getting her on her tummy naked and getting down with her so she can see you. I found my other 2 boys hated being on their tummies with a nappy on, don't know why but they did
Pam I hope you have a great Chrissy! Poppy is 1 day younger than Ashton hehe
Lol aren't chubby babies the best!! Liberty sounds so cute She put on a decent amount didn't she! Ash puts that on reguarly, he's such a boof haha
Eej! I am SO jealous! Noosa would be lovely to visit! I am glad Em was good on the plane!! What a sweet gift from DH!
I also can't believe our babies are almost 4 months! It seems like yesterday I found out I was expecting and getting excited about another baby!! Ashton is rolling, laughing and pushing along the ground! He plays with his toys, sucks all his clothes and blankets and loves to bite my finger. He is growing SO fast, in 1's already!! 8.5kg and 70cm long!! Such a cutie, I am still so in love with him
Christmas is exciting this year!! Ash has lots of toys! We have heaps of toys but nothing really age appropriate, so he has some toys that are just for him Santa brought the boys a little blow up pool so I hope xmas day is nice enough that they get to swim in it, knowing Tassie it will rain
He got his bumbo today! I went out and got the tray too so he can play with his toys on it. He loves sitting up and playing and being at the same level as the boys
Going to upload another couple of pics... lets see if I can link them...
Mel- Wow Ashton is in 1s already! He is a full 2 kgs heavier than Emily and 8 cm longer. I weighed her today and she is 6.5kg and 62 cm. I plotted her on the graphs in the blue book and she is spot on the middle blue line or just below. My GF has an 8 month old that only weighs 8kg, they are actually worried about her as she isn't putting on weight. Love the pics...Ashton is very cute!
Merry Christmas to all of you, my lovely BB friends. Love you all!! Will try to catch up with you over the next few days.
My father and stepmother arrived this afternoon and will be here for a couple of weeks. I'm so pleased that they'll be here for Christmas. I would have been very sad if Matthew's first Christmas had been without family around.
This time last year I was watching my FF chart and hoping with all my heart to see two lines. How lucky we have been.
