Hi Niamh, I joined the Body transformation challlenge, maybe you could too. The cut off was last night ...but if you ask nicely maybe she will add you, there are a few girls going to join in when they have babies so I bet she will if you want.
Thanks Captain for let us know about it. How much weight do you want to lose? or is it about fitness feeling better etc? Me it's the whole package. I am thinking I am going to name and shame myslef and add my "before photos to the gallery, makes me more accountable in my own mind!!!!!!
Hope you all had a nice night. Happy New Year
Best Wishes for a safe and happy 2009
Pam, glad you found the challenge. I was trying to add the link when I realized you already found it! Mostly I'm doing it for the healthy eating and fitness. I used to be a very fit person and I would like to get close to that again. Not sure my tummy will every look the same again though
Well Ashlyn sleep has improved a small bit, because I've started sleeping her on her tummy. I know I'm not meant to, but her day sleeps have gone from being only 30 -40 mins to 2hours. I decided to buy one of those breathing monitors so I could try it at night. She now settles a lot faster and wakes up less, so will see how it goes.
My tummy went back well after my natural birth but not after the c-sections. I hope you acheive what you want. Tummy sleeping, my kids have all rolled over and slept on their tummy from around 5 months. She most likely would do it as soon as she rolls anyway. Main thing is they are'nt wrapped and the moniter is a good idea, especially until she can get back herself if she wants to.
Niamh - I just looked at your photos of Erieann on face book, she is so cute. I didn't know she had red hair. I've been hoping Emily's hair will go red but I'm not sure it will. I have dark red hair but I was born with it and it hasn't really changed my whole life. I hope your first christmas and new years in Oz were filled with joy.
I would have liked to have done the challenge but don't feel motivated at the moment to do anything, I want to but just can't seem to make the committment. I keep waiting for the lightening bolt moment to kick my butt into gear.
Captain- I think tummy sleeping is more natural for them, they can't seem to startle and they seem more cosy.
I hope everyone had a good new years! Exciting to see what 2009 holds for us, the year our bubba's turn 1!
I don't think there is anything wrong with tummy sleeping. By 2 weeks I had had enough of fighting with Ashton, and let him sleep on his tummy and his sleeps improved immensly! Even now, he sleeps on his side in the cot, on a pillow... and I have to wrap him loosly in the blanket, he hates having his hands out. Otherwise he will be up in half an hour.
eeeeek it's so overwhelming seeing how many posts there are sometimes haha. Serves me right for not getting online more often.
We went to Lennox Head with my SIL at New Years and Liberty had her first time of "swimming", well apart from her wading pool anyway, in Lake Ainsworth, she loved it!
Donna - I know I've said it before but Molly is just too cute!! Libby is getting pretty vocal too, I'm not sure our house is ever going to be quiet again!
Captain - I have a breathing monitor that i use when we're not co-sleeping. I use it in daytime too. The only problem is forgetting to turn them off and them going off in the middle of the night but they are so good for peace of mind.
hi Angie, lovely to hear from you again. I really should get onto your thread too and say hi sometime or u should post in here so there's less effort for me hee hee.
I found that when I was at hospital, everyone who had a vaginal birth their stomach went down a lot more than those with a c/s. I had a vaginal birth and my belly is back to normal but unfortunately normal for me resembles buddha.
Pam - I had put on weight after having Liberty. I lost most of it really quickly and then I started eating from frustration, stress, boredom, etc so started to put back on. I've cut back on some of my boredom eating though which has helped.
The body transformation challenge sounds interesting, I might sticky beak and watch. Hubby and I are having a challenge against one another at the moment (he put on sympathy weight when I was preggers haha). Only 5kg at a time. I've already lost 1.3kg (just from cutting back on my boredom eating - how bad is that!) and he's lost nothing so far - I would feel a bit more confident about my odds of beating him if I wasn't addicted to cadbury drinking chocolate mixed with cold soy milk.
blackduckies thanks Ill check it out I might be lucky, is it on Belly Belly Ill have a search,Im so ready to get fit and lose weight, I have my runners, my new britney spears and Joining ww . I just want to feel nice and slimmer and fitter. I doubt ill ever lose my tummy its awful after a c section and big babies,
Captain I might try Eireann on her tummy, she is finding it really hard to settle in the day only naps here and there. last night was terrible we couldnt sleep with the heat and she fed constantly Im worn out . I have her in her pram on her tummy (its a bassinette) and my Eldest is rocking her just to give me a break dont think its working
eej every one says that about that photo it really looks like her hair is red, its craddle cap on the top of her head well looking at her Its a mixture of blonde and dark hair. so im wondering what way she will go. I know my DS 3 started with pitch back hair and by 6 months it was blonde, then when he was around two I got it cut and now its dark again. it has blonde highlight from the sun. so you might get the red yet! I had a lovely christmas, I missed my family but we had a lovely day and I have my brother with me .
Lauren I am the same, I am going to try and keep a closer eye on the group .you know we all have been chatting on line for a year now. this time last year we were all finding out about our little babys.
