Babies Born September 2006 #4

Hi all,
It's been a long day for me. I woke at 4am for some reason and couldn't get back to sleep. Nina has been having her usual 'witching hour' moments since 5pm, luckily mum is here and is looking after her. At the moment she is bathing her ... thank god for mums!!!
welcome rach75 and congrats on the birth of Jack. Sorry haven't got around to reading your birth story, too tired.
Nina is sleeping really well, pretty much from 10pm to 6am.
Hope everyone is having a good weekend and remember little babies, be good to your mothers!!

Welcome Rach - I read your birthstory too...and also was updated by Emma in PAML too. Great to see you here and look forward to getting to know you.

Merrie - Hello mate, so great to see you, how is Harriett doing? shes a little cutie! I hope your breastmilk lets down really well soon hon, it is really stressful, I hope the medication works for you. Rach is right, whats really important is the baby gaining weight, try not to feel guilty, there is so much pressure out there to breastfeed isnt there and I think that its unfair. Big hugs to you and I hope everything gets better.

Jodi - Nina and Julia seem to have the same schedule again. Julia's been up all day and now is crying, she hasnt slept at all. Wondering if its because DH has been home all day and her schedule is different?

Caddie - hows ruby tonight? and Millana? mmmm I need more coffee now too im knackered and just want to sleep.

Have a good night girls.

Hi ladies, can I join you????

belle - you might have a point about your DH being at home. Mine has been as well the last couple of days, and she will only settle with him at the moment.

Not sure if this is normal or not, but I got my period yesterday. I've never had heavy bleeding of even experienced period pain before, but now I've got both!! I feel absolutely miserable. I'm going to the dr tomorrow to see if he thinks it's the pill. I started feeling crap just as I started taking it. If he thinks it is I'd rather go off it and be on nothing!
Nina finally settled at 9 last night and slept through till 6.30 except for a nappy change at 4am. I'm glad she did that as I was stuffed yesterday and had no energy. She's gone back to sleep now so she must be exhausted.
We're going over to some friends today to watch Bathurst, although I'd rather be in bed sleeping. Mum is going to look after Nina ... again, thank god for Mums!!!

magic - welcome and congrats on your DS arrival! What's his name?

caddie - I agree, taking babies out is really easy. Nina and I go out everyday for some shopping or to meet someone for lunch ... I love it!!!

Hi all,
Ash was little unsettled over night, I thought she would cause she slept at 5pm yest had a feed at 7pm and went straight back to sleep so i thought she'd be alert early, started playing up after the 2am feed but got her settled eventually then she was up ready for the day at 6! I just brought her to bed with us, not that I got any sleep in really.

Talking bout our partners, Ash is more settled on days he is home and it frustrates me cause she'll have her screaming non stop times more often when he's not around so he doesn't see what I deal with and why I'm bawling my eyes out sometimes! At least if he is there when she does it we can take turns to calm her and the screaming never seems so bad if there is someone else there.

well we are off to have a family photo's taken this arvo at myers so will give Ash a good bath and put on a cute little pink outfit when she wakes up.

Merrie! How cute is harriet! I love that name,i wish i had thought of it,and the hair is adorable!
Shellbell,thats nice you are having a family photo,we havnt got that far yet! Only at the birth.I have had some individual ones with her but look tired and worn out! We need to do something about it.
Jodie,nina sounds like such a good girl.
Ruby has been fine,just trying different bottle teats as the simple pur ones she collapses.Gone to avent again but she takes forever to feed.From her last feed at 2am all she did was fart,grunt and wriggle.I swear i would turf her out into her own room but then shed wake millana and she has been sleeping through.
And she was awake yesterday arvo from 230pm to 7pm.Just about did my head in but maybe she is learning nite from day.
Hi magic! course you can join us!
Any 14D girls want a maternity bra,hardly worn,free!

Message from Alexander to Aunty Bel.... "Thank you very much for my new outfit. It finally fits me! Mummy posted a piccy on her homepage so you can see how cute I look"

Hi Girls!

Welcome Rach and Magic!

Merrie - Harriet is gorgeous... what an amazing head of hair she has. Xander is still nearly bald, what hair is has is very fine and blonde. Don't stress about the BF'ing thing... hopefully all will turn out ok, but no point beating yourself up if it doesn't work out - you'll still be a great mum.

ShellBell - We have the opposite around here.. when DH is home, Xander is less settled - he loves screaming for his daddy.

Caddie - How is little Ruby today? Hope she slept a bit for you last night. ETA: I've found the Pigeon teats to be really good, they don't collapse.

Maz - Vy is just so scrummy. Could gobble her up. Makes me want to have a little girl ... but I aint going down the whole ttc/pg/labour path again! LOL.

Jodi_lee - Bugger about getting period again. Whilst most women are lucky enough to not get a period whilst BF'ing, some do! I'm almost positive I had one already, it just sorta added on the the post partum bleeding (I guess I'll know in a few weeks if it happens again). My mum got her period back almost straight away after having both my sister and myself despite exclusively BF'ing.

ooo.. Bathurst is back on, gotta fly!

hey girls,

im finally back to normal. well as normal as you can be with a new baby. my leg is alot better now and i can walk around with no pain yay.

riley has been waking up every 2 - 3 hrs for a feed everynight. but he settles straight away after his feeds so im happy about that.

belle - sounds like you enjoyed your time out by yourself. wish i could do that simon just cant cope with akira at the moment. and i know how he feels she has been so naughty the last few days.


Welcome rach wow thats is alot you had to deal with hope all is going well now.

Anna - i like alexanders glasses. he looks so cute in then.

hello to everyone else i have missed.

Hi ladies I hope you are all enjoying your weekend with your partners home and those whose partners are at work(I'm with you) I hope that the day is passsing quickly.

Welcome Rach and Magic.

Conffesion time:The last few days I have been holding Eithan for his arvo sleep. Ooooppps probably creating a bad habit but I just love to hold him sometimes, when there's no crying or spewing.

Sorry no personals. BBL for more.

Love

Helenp thats lovely that you and eithan have that special time together! Dont feel guilty about it.They are only little once.
Not too bad a night and day for me,except that she has wind!
She is crying now so hubby has gone to get her! I think this arvo will most likely be her witching hour as the next door little girls come over and created havoc and mayhem here not so long ago.
Confession: My little one likes to sleep in a swing! So i most likely will have troubles later on in the day with bed time!

Another sucker over here! I confess... I often feed Xander to sleep, rock him to sleep and let him sleep in my arms. LOL.

That being said, he will also self settle in his bassinet, cot, pram, bouncer and pretty much anywhere when he is tired so I refuse to feel too guilty!

snap Anna- our little guys have quite a few similarities.

Caddie-I hope tha havoc didnt create too much mess in your house. I hope Ruby is doing better.

Love

Hellooo! Welcome Rach & Magic :)

How's feeding going AnnaT? I used to worry whether I had enough in my left side, it usually feels so soft as opposed to my full & often lumpy right side...but I can still get milk out of there, so I just keep feeding him assuming that will keep it making milk! My friend reckons her boobs are like that too, so I'm not too worried :)

I have started to feel less guilty about a dummy...not sure why I felt guilty in the first place, but he spits it out whenever he's hungry or has a dirty nappy, so I don't think there's any chance the dummy is masking any needs he might have.

I got my tax back the other day! So we went to Baby Bunting and bought some pram accessories and car shades and a Baby Bjorn! I had been looking at them on ebay but got too confused about new models and old models and how old some were etc...so just got a new one. Rans has the boy in it now, he wouldn't sleep cos he had the hiccups and now he's fast asleep...so I imagine we might have a confession to make in a few weeks...that we send him to sleep in the carrier! Rans just said 'I reckon this was a good idea'! Nice to be right about stuff sometimes ;)

And I went to Myer (I'm a sucker for sales there, cos they're quite good once you add my staff discount to it!) and got some button up tops. So now I have some clothes to wear.

To those with boys, how do you avoid getting wee'd on? I often have a cloth or my hand in the way, but I swear, he just KNOWS the very moment I'm off guard and then BAM all over everything! And he goes on forever! Just being true to his name I suppose :D
Still, any tips would be much appreciated.

Well, it's taken me a fair while to write this post (someone's been feeding and dirtying like a bandit today). Rans has set up a tv in our room, I was against it at first, but I have been so bored during feeds, and he says I won't wake him up if I watch tv during feeds. So that might be nice.

Hope everyone's well, sorry I haven't done more personals, I forgot what I read all that time ago! xo

The feeding is going ok Nelle, thanks for asking! I still dont feel as full as I used to but I think it may just be my boobs settling down - I still get wicked dripping when Im popping the boob out to feed him lol I have to tuck a flannel in my bra to stop it running on my shirt, very sexy look :cryinglaugh: As for the boy peeing problems, we've had the same issue but with Dh changing his nappy! I think Jett knows Daddy sucks at it and wee's to get him to hurry up (Bub doesnt like being nakey, hope it stays that way in the future ;) ) Ive never had peeing issues but Dh reckons its cause Im a pro at nappy changing thanks to practising on my little bro for years. Personally I just think bub loves me more lol
I must confess though I am another indulgent Mama who occasionally feeds bub to sleep and lets him sleep on my chest for a little while...........I usually only half sleep and end up putting him back in the bassinette.

Nelle - I always put a pad-folded flat terry over Xanders bits whilst in between nappies... doesn't stop him peeing but at least it stops him spraying everywhere like a fountain!

My health nurse told me it's actually very common for a woman's right boobie to have more milk than the left... and it doesn't seem to matter if the mother is right/left handed (I had to ask that). Not sure how much truth there is to it, but I'm another with more milk in the right boobie than left.

My right boobie always has a fast let down even when I am feeding from the left...LOL Definately have to have a flannel when BFing...they always leak all over her face.

Hi girls

Julia hasnt settled all day sigh.. we are both tired now.. she must be tired too hey..

Helen - good to see you, I like holding Julia too she likes going to sleep in my arms.

Gotta get some sleep now girls. Back later

DS's name is Mitchell James.
Dummies - DD had one right up to age 4.......she has great teeth and has no health problems from it. From age 2 to 4 though the dummy was only used at night. DS doesn't take the dummy. I say just go with what works for you and bubs, saving your sanity.
Same thing goes re cuddling bubs to sleep, they are still sooo young that spoiling isn't possible - just my opinion. My boy feeds and goes to sleep, we have a few small activities during the day - preferably in the morning so that DS, DD and me can have an arvo sleep. He sleeps basically 3 - 4 hours, but has at least one stint a day of 5-6 hours. He is very placid indeed. He is still have lots of wet nappies so I'm sure that he is getting enough fluids, and it is evident he is growing - I'm just going with the flow really.
I'll try to catch up a bit more on everyone.....
Hope you had a nice weekend..
Woohoo go FORD!:)

I agree,go ford!! It was so great that lowndes won.I almost cried!
Ruby was up 2hrly last night!! I think it was because she didnt have as much to drink,these teats take her longer to drink the milk as they are slower. And she was doing that noisy wriggling and grunting again! Grrr

hey girls,

had a crap night last night. i was up every 3hrs with riley and as soon as i got him to sleep and i layed down akira would wake up so there was another 2hrs to get her back to sleep. simon went back to work today so now i can get the kids in a routine before school hoildays are over.

caddie - i know what you mean with the wiggling and grunting while they are feeding it takes alot longer for them to feed.

well im off to have a shower while riley is asleep.

bbl

adele

I had a bad night too. Nina was up every 3 hours last night. No idea what that was about. When she woke up at 3am she was hungry, wasn't too hot or too cold and didn't have a dirty nappy, I think she just wanted a cuddle ... I'd much prefer to do that during the day!!!

How do you girls get your bubs to sleep early in the night? Here is my problem:
during the day if Nina is tired, she will sleep anywhere
In the middle of the night if she wakes for a feed (or a cuddle) I can put her to bed still awake and she'll go to sleep on her own in no time at all
But at the beginning of the night, say between 7 and 10pm, I cannot get her to go to sleep in her cot. She's really tired, then gets over-tired and gets really cranky. I have tried to just put her down in her cot and shut the door and let her cry it out, but she doesn't stop. She'll go to sleep in her bouncer in the living room, or in your arms.
I try to do the same thing each night, bath her at the same time, feed her in a dark environment with not much noise around etc.
Any ideas?

Jodi - our little Boo has become addicted to tv. She sit's and watches it for an hour with no noise. I know its terrible but I have to for sanity. She's been awake since 4.30 this morning and hasn't slept at all in that time. Im gonna pull my hair out cause she wants me to hold her. Ive just feed her andnow she's looking at the screen pressing one out!
Caddie - i bought some wind drops for Vy and they helped heaps. there in a yellow box and are about $8.
Every one else - hello i love you but i need a shower and to get out of my granny cloths.
i'll be back later
xxmaz
p.s all my bra's are now to big!

Well girls I had a rough weekend, Julia was awake all day for 2 days running, why is it on weekends and mondays is always crap during they day and she doesnt settle at all between 3 hourly feeds, now beginning to be 2hrs and im knackered what do you guys do? I have to put her in her cot and let her cry cause she doesnt sleep anywhere. AUGHH

:eek: :hello: thanks for the welcome girls

well today is my first day alone, jase started back to work today, Jack timed his feed perfectly was up for while Jase was havingbreakie and we managed to go outside and wave him off

I feel guilty when I read you posts about your bubs being awake and crying, Jack is so placid and calm, I am sure it will change, he did go from 4 hourly feed the last few nights to 3 hourly lastnight, but we are up changed and fed 90ml formula and back inbed in max 1/2 hour avereage 20min, I wonder if this is to do with Special care where everything is so regimented

anyway hope you are all doing great, we have our first outing by oursleves tomorrow, nothing exciting just a dr visit for me, but still by myself :eek:

??? are there any girls who have had c-sect here, I had 2 days of light bleeding following then nothing till Sat when I started spotting then yesterday I had cramp like my period was on the way, and had mild bleeding during the day :confused: I dont know if this is normal

Maz I wish my bras were too big. I thought your milk was supposed to settle down from week 6 - mine feel like they're getting bigger...and they're already an E cup!!!

Hi all,

Rach75- Its nice to hear your bubs is placid, Ash goes thru days of being nice and calm and then a screamer the next!

*Belle*- Its hard when they are like that. Ash did that to me on Friday and by Fri night I was just bawling my eyes out, my mum was even about to come over but I told her not to. I have eventually found some ways that do help settle her, the booby always does but it gets a bit hard when they are on it all the time! I finally got her to take a dummy but that only seems to work in her bouncer if she's in her bassinet it keeps falling out but the best thing she likes is if i put a pillow on my lap and lie her on her tummy and rub her back and she usually calms. Does your MCHN have any day stay classes that help with settling and things? Mine has one that runs once a week and it sounds just what you and Julia could use.

jodi_lee- It is hard to get them to sleep initially, i just try all the tactics I mentioned above to Belle, only prob is as soon as I put her down she's opened her eyes and we have to start all over.

Well we actually had a good night last night. I tell you she really behaves for her daddy, last night I told Df it was my sort of night off and he had to change her nappy and bring her in for feeds and settle her again and let me sleep in while he plays with her in the morn. well last night she fed 4 hourly which is really rare and didn't wake up til 8:15 usually its an hour earlier!

Rach - I had a c-section. I stopped bleeding at 2 1/2 weeks after the operation. Its normal to get cramping and little bleeding while breastfeeding or just after when you go to the loo. Its your uterus going back to normal. Once it is normal it will stop. If its excessive bleeding you should see someone (ie, changing a pad every hour) or if it doesnt stop by 6 weeks after.

Shellbell - thanks so much for your thoughts. I have tried all these, had a MHCN with me last week she was great, they do have day stays at Trescillian if it gets really bad I can go there. Im going to see the MHCN on Wednesday so will see how her weight goes this week, if shes not getting enough food then I will go to Trescillian.

Maz - Im so jealous by bbs are humungus LOL got a maternity bra yesterday at Target for $5 what a score hey.

hi girls,
wow...so much to catch up on in only a few days away. the wedding was a huge success and ainsleigh was a gem. she was in and out of the car, lots of driving and slept through the ceremony, not waking up till half way through the reception (including two in and out of the cars!) she even slept for the full four hour drive home yesterday.

welcome to rach and the other new girls (sorry, my brain is dead for names!) rach, i had a c section and i bled for about four weeks. sometimes i thought it was stopping, but would come back. only ever lightly though. think everyone is different and as long as there are no large clots it is all good.

as for all the confessions... i nearly always rock ainsleigh to sleep. i put her in her bassinet this morning without rocking her to sleep tho, thought i should give it a try as i know i am making a rod for my own back... she has just started squawking!

ainsleigh has also been a gem when it comes to sleeping. for the three nights we were away she slept pretty much through the night. we even had to wake her up on the morning of the wedding to get in the car to go to the hairdressers!

hope everyone is getting in some nana naps while there bubs is sleeping. we are going to the park today to take advantage of the warm weather.

HALLELUJAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

5 hours sleep last night. Thats right 5!!!! I was so impressed this morning that I didnt mind him waking me up with a super pooey nappy and crying :) This means that tonight he'll wake every 2 hours all night ofcourse lol
Geez youd think Dh was some super Dad or something, he STILL asleep and its 9:15am. I wish :rolleyes: He washed dishes and cleaned up the yard yesterday and you'd think he rebuilt the house or something. All he does is play silly comp games and its driving me mad. He should just be at work, he's of no use to me :mad:

Anywho better take advantage of bub sleeping to shower. I need to clean we have Dh's friends coming over for dinner tonight *sigh*

GRRRR... Just went to the ultrasound place to get Xander's hips done, and guess what?! The Paed Doctor didn't show up this morning so I have to go back on Thursday. So annoying as Xander is in such a grouchy mood this morning so has been no fun to take out at all. I've got him in the bouncer and bouncing him with my foot to try and settle the grump.

Belle - Alexander feeds 2 hourly during the day for me! I've just gotten used to it now, at least he settles well at night ('cos he is so stuffed with food). If I try and stretch out his feeds, he becomes an absolute horror and totally unsettled for hours. Belle.. did you see the piccy I posted on my homepage of Xander in the outfit you gave him?

Rikki - Welcome back! The weather is just so gorgeous today... I'm hoping to get out and enjoy it a bit later on. Might go for a walk to the shops seeing as my car remote has just died.

Rach - Enjoy your first outing... it's a bit scary the first time, but gets heaps easier each time you go out.

Jodi_Lee - Don't ya just love it when they wake in the middle of the night just because they want a cuddle! LOL. It's so hard to reisist that cheeky little smile even when you are bleary eyed from lack of sleep.

Caddie - I'm such a massive Holden fan, but I really wanted Lowndes to win yesterday anyway... seemed just so fitting that he won it as Brocky meant so much to him. I couldn't believe it when Skaifey trashed his car on the first lap tho!

Aboll - I hope you manage to get a nap in today, sounds like you need it after last night.

Maz - I didn't realise that bubs' could even see the TV as of yet? LOL... I hope Vy was watching something appropriate! hehehe

Oh goody.. Xander has drifted off to sleep in his bouncer, I'm too scared to stopped bouncing it tho as I reckon he'll wake if I do. Guess I'll be surfin the net for a little while longer.

hey girls,

im doing much better than belle i think lol. she is tried before me lol im fully of beans i think its because i have never had much of a full night sleep since akira has been born lol. i will have a sleep if she falls asleep at any point today. i can only hope she might cause she looks like a wreak.

well im off to the shops to get some more nappies riley just likes peeing on a heap at every change little bugga. he hasnt gotten me yet.

Seeya

Adele

thanks fro the advice re c-sect and pp bleeding it is real light no clots or anything, someone said somethingabout bf I am formula feeding as my milk didn't comein when it was supposed to andhe hadn't had anything for 4 days so I decided he needed to eat, mind you milk came gushing in at 8 days LOL

my first day alone has been good so far, except Jack has decided to be awake, not that that is a problem just hard to hang out washing with a baby in arms, tried sling was ok, but is way tohot to have him in sling out int he sun, am going to have to work somethingout though

I feel so guilty putting him inhis bassinet when he is awake :sigh:

anyway must fly and wash floors so he can come out of basinet and go on a blankie on floor

hope your day is going well

Anna - She loves Dora the explorer, I think its the lights flicking and the colours or something, maybe she got so use to hearing it (because of Wilhem's Dora addiction)while she was in utero that its a familiar sound? lol. I would have been peved to say the slightest with the doctor today. @r$ehole!
Jodi - my maternity bra's were an 20F mate so im very happy. My normal 20 dd's are swimming on me.
Belle - I need matches to keep my eyes open at the moment. Vy has just had a half hours sleep and she's screaming again. OH Im telling you, IM going to express post her soon! How cheap was the bra you got, lucky duck. I paid $59 each for mine. Im so jealous. Im going for a shower in a min and miss moo will be in her rocker in the bathroom. The sounds of the water and fan seem to put her to sleep. Try it, JUlia might like it too. Yesterday I had the stereo pumping and she crashed like a light. Go figure?
Caddie - did you put anything in the box yet? You'll have to let me know.
Rikki - Glad the wedding and weekend away was good. Can I come to the park too please? Id love to soak up the sun.
Hello everyone else, im a slack bartch I know but im stuffed.
love to you all
xxmaz

just a quick:hello: to you all

i had a great night last night 4 hours sleep, in her cot, then feed and back to sleep, except for the constant grunts and farts....LOL.

but she is being a little ( i will use you word caddie) TURD today just wont settle, :eek:
i just love reading you use that word caddie it makes me laugh everytime.

hi and welcome to magic, and rach.

rach, i lost my first child to sids, and my next was monitered for 7 months, with wires hanging of her everywhere, she had very shallow breathing which made the alarms ring all the time, it was a very uneasy time for me, but i got through it, sending you lots of:hug:

anyway little sh** is screaming again:crying:

Rach - I spotted on and off after having WIlhem (child number 2) and I formula feed him. I had c-sections with all 3 of my kids. I didn't bleed at all for 3 days after having Vyolett then I had a big gush and nearly heomaridged (SPelling up the crapper). Just count yourself lucky mate.
Oh there's the little so and soo again AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH we'res my express postage bags again......

Ah Chirssy i peaed my pants at you. No I did..how sad is that. now I defently need a shower.

maz - Nina loves the sound of water as well. When I have a shower I lay her on my bed and she just 'goos' and 'gaas' the whole time while looking out the window at the light!
Anna** - that sucks about this morning. They could have phoned you first. Good luck on Thursday. How is Xander going at night, still being a piggy and feeding every 2 hours?
rach - just got around to reading your birth story. You poor thing. Hope your enjoying your first day alone. re: the washing, I normally race out when Nina is having a nap, having said that though it's been sitting there for an hour and she's asleep and I couldn't be bothered.
AnnaT - thats great that you got 5 hours sleep last night. men...they do a little housework and they are absolutely buggard. Not like us at all!!

What is it with whinging babies today. Nina has been cranky all day. Finally got her to sleep about 10 minutes ago after she fought it for an hour. Hopefully this is her witching hour now, and not tonight :pray:

maz.......your such a goose:p

hey jodi lee your avator is looking pretty damn sexy girl.:)

Well I have learnt that the best way to get Ash to sleep during the day is to put her in the bouncer. i don't even need to rock it or anything. Today and yest when i put her down in the bassinet she starts carrying on but if i put her in the bouncer she happily goes off to sleep. Mind you I'm with all you girls cuddling or giving her booby to settle and start falling asleep first, better than her screaming!

Anna**- Thats a bit of a pain in the ass. I hope at least all the ultrasounds come back okay.

AnnaT- You lucky thing. Ash has never gone that long. She is too piggy wants food all the time. I think longest I've got was just over 4 hours.

rikki- Glad to hear your weekend went really well. They just love car rides don't they. Ash always falls asleep in the car even if she had just got up from a sleep!

Hey girls, how's it going? I tried to type one handed before but Riv was waaay too wiggly!
Today is his first awake day, which I suppose is good...since hopefully it means he's starting to learn night from day? :pray: I called mum and she came over so I could have a shower. Good ol mum. She did my dishes too.

Awesome bout your sleep AnnaT! Once Riv slept for like, 6 hours in the day..I woke him up, cos I started to freak out :p And I was bored.

The neighbour just came and brought flowers, which was nice, so I let her have a hold, but Riv just started crying...ah well, she wasn't offended. He just wanted his mummy! He's back in the cradle, but I can hear him fussing...he's been awake since about 9:30, so surely he'll crash soon?
I have the Baby Bjorn as backup if he starts to fuss too much, but he sounds settled for now...so maybe he's nodding off...

Took him to church yesterday and got stacks of pressies! Good ol church ;)

Shell, what bouncer do you have? I really like the idea of being able to lie him down around the house. But some look so scary and crazy, like Dr. Seuss drew them!

Oh girls, I'm with you on the fussy babies today, I can hear him getting louder. Oh now he's settled again..

Hey, what do people wear to bed? A bra? Or what?
Oh, nope, typed too soon, he's starting his motors again...later girls! xo
