Hey Girls,
Agnes- Sorry I cant help with the reflux question.
Noni- Congrats on the Weight Loss.
Gracie- Re Movicol- Jordy hates the taste so I was thinking of mixing it with Lemonade.. He is off it yesterday and today due to his temps but I have the ring the dr back at the end of the week and find out how many sachets to give him. I think its starting to work too.

hello all! Noah is having his 1st day at fdc today - just a trial before the hell of next week. so far so good, it is hard leaving him anywhere but i felt better about it than the 1st time i left him at creche so i think we have done the right thing. i have been doing errands today, will go pick him up soon as we have a friend and her 10 mnth old over for coffee at 3.30.. what a social life my little man has LOL! I am so stressed abotu how it will be wheni am back at work, DH and I both have quite full on jobs.. so how will we make it all work. already decided on using online shopping etc, just to save time but thinking of getting a mothers help or someone in a few hours a couple of times a weekt o help me with cooking, washing etc. my clener offered to do it but i think maybe someone else would be better as i am not thrilled by my cleaner's job of late!! on the positive DH will have fridays off from early may which will be wonderful for him to spend the time with N.
Gracie - how did L go at the target casting??? what a spunky family you have!
Jazmum - i have introduced 1 bottle of formula a day and it has gone ok. i put N on the follow on Karicare Gold (dr said this was ok) and he has been ok with it. he prefers bm of course (though he hates EBM for some reason) and so do i but this is a good back up for us. I had to try a few diff bottles and he has settled with the tommee tipee closer to nature.
I hear you all on the memory loss, how will i function at work??? friemd who is chinese dr recommended avocado and fish oils, to replace lost fat cells from brain. she had all these stats what each baby takes from us.. the little parasites!!!
Noni - WTG on weight loss, well done! love the sound of the toys too! i hope you hear about the house today.
Agnes - i dont have much info on reflux (think there may be a section on BB for it??) - throwing up, pain when reclilned?? i am not sure.. i hope he doesnt have it.
So happy for everyone with crawling bubs.... sorry i forget who is doing it there are too many!! N is not showing signs of that yet. still v happy with sitting and eating!!
he is babbling a lot but no sign of the MAMA!!!
he did get a temp from the vaccinations yest, we had to give him panadol in the night the poor little man. and this time there is a lot more redness at injection points and a bigger lump around each one. i am so glad no more til 12 months. does anyone have good info on MMR? i am quite nervous about it.
i justy called a domestic violence shelter here to donate all Noah's old clothes... we have so many and they are all gorgeous so it seems a good use for them to be handed on to someone who really needs them. i am sure some poor mums will be v happy to dress their little ones up in some lovely outfits - my little man is a bit of a clotheshorse so they will get some real cute outfits!
ok better go, few more things to do around the house and then i get to pick up Noah!
back later

Pregpan, Grrr, why did W take fat cells from my brain instead of the ample supply on my thighs! Glad the FDC seems to be working better for you. I had to give W panadol after his shots too.
Noni, congrats on the weight loss. My cookie addiction isn't helping me any in that department. Didn't mean to be negative about Asha's talking. Some people take the mum-mum and dad-dad as first words, I am just waiting for a word with meaning rather than a sound iykwim
Sherie, WTG Alister! He is a clever little boy!
Better go, Will is pulling wipes out of the container lol

Pregpan, same here I am so nervous about going back to work. I work in the city which is quite far from my home so I need to go at 6 in the morning (DH will drop him off a bit later) so I can pick him up around 5.30. Otherwise W will be in care for 11 hours, not good at all! I think we need to share our time management tips later on LOL
Arte, LOL at the thigh fat cells
Noni, we were posting at the same time congrats on the weight loss
Hope everyone is having a nice day

Well our lights are up and they look fantastic, very chic LOL. He just has to come back on Friday put the new powerboard on the house and then everything is done. It is so great to have every light in the house working properly.
Gosh lots has been happening in here today.
Agnes, I have no idea if relux can present once they are this age. There is a NZ site called cryingoverspiltmillk (can't remember if it ended in .com or .com.nz) and it's a reflux website.
Hey Arte, did he manage to get many out of the container? Erin always did that and drove me mental, they are dear enough as it is without them getting them LOL.
Pregpan, in my experience, I haven't ever had any problem with the MMR vacc. They did get the rash afterwards, which is common and a bit of a runny nose etc (also common) but no nasty effects luckily. Alister had a temp for a day too this time and the lumps were a lot bigger this time than they were last time.
bbl - need to feed the boy
Ok, back to finish off.
Leanne, what does that stuff taste like? It is so hard to get them to take medicine at that age. I meant to ask too - the boys aren't cutting eye teeth are they? I remember my kids really suffered with them and Erin got temps with hers.
MD, do we now have a spotless bedroom? I hope there were no tears (from either of youLOL)
Gracie, how was the casting for our gorgeous boy? Fingers crossed he gets it.

thanks for the info Sherie - I know we will end up getting it but i am nervous about it and of course i have read heaps of awful things about it. but i guess you read the worst case scenarios only...
N is so exhausted from his day at fdc, he didnt sleep so well there bc of new environment etc. He is crashed out now, i usually put him to bed soon but he fell asleep about 20 mins ago not even in his sleeping bag so i will just do his bed routine after.
Agnes we will certainly have to share tips soon - I am looking fwd to it in many ways but i is a new stage that will need some adjusting to. when are you going back to work? (Sorry if you already said!)
DH is working late again tonight... 3rd night in a row i have to do the bedtime routine by myself... grrrrrrrr not at all mad at him but man his work is full on... and unplannable!!

Been very busy in here for the past couple of days....
Gracie - OMG Congrats to model boy Lewis!! I've just had a look at the catalogue online and he looks so gorgeous, like everyone else said cant mistake those eyes! How did the target casting go? How did you get into all of this? I'd love to think that Maddie could be a model. I'm terrible, I've already got high hopes of her becoming a pop star lol. Now whats this about you being in McLeods, I'm sure I've asked before but bad memory!? Far out did you meet Alex? Got the hots for him!
Pregpan - Good on you for donating Noah's clothes to the women's shelter. I'm sure they will be very appreciated. With managing work and home life, it will probably take a few weeks to get into a bit of a routine and get the hang of it all but eventually it will get easier for you. You will be fine.
Sherie - Clever Alister pulling himself up! He is coming along in leaps and bounds!
Arte - I saw the news about the school children drowing, how tragic. Their families must be going through their worst nightmare.lol at Will getting into the wipes, cheeky monkey.
Leanne - Sorry but I just had to laugh picturing the boys jumping off the lounge!!!
Agnes - Thanks for the tip of using a smaller spoon. I never thought of that so I will give it a go. She is still shaking her head! Wont take Will long to figure out that he needs to go forward.
Noni - Well done on the loss. I still have Maddie in the baby bjorn and she is over 9kgs now. She is a back breaker this girl! Its starting to get very uncomfortable now so I'm going to put it away for the next bub soon.
Katie - I've been having a quiet day at home too, cleaning...
Clare - Hope you had a nice day out in the botanic gardens. Maddie hasnt bruised from needles before, but gets a big lump.
Fianne - Thanks for all that info re: food and travel for bubs. I'm really looking forward to our little holiday, but I just cant shake the feeling of we have made a bad decision going with DP's parents. Oh well 8 days wont kill us I guess. After reading about your las vegas wedding we are very tempted to do the same!
Jazmum - Oh no what a mission of a day! At least you could laugh about it in the end.
Marydean - Random question, do you read Jodi Picoult books? I know you like reading and if you havent discovered this author yet, I highly recommend her!

haley - yeah Asha is really heavy in the bjorn too lol
gracie - how do u hear about castings for catologues etc??
pregpan - the owner of the house denied all the applicants for the house including ours and put the house back on the market so we arent good enough lol.. hope dhs job sorts itself out
sherie - woohoo glad the lights are up

Hayley Jodi Picoult is my favourite author. My friend and I take turns at buying her books and swap them. I haven't read anything since Logan was born though, I should probably start.
Noni well done on the weight loss.
Pregpan you are wonderful for giving N's clothes to a shelter, that is a beautiful gesture and I am sure it will be much appreciated.
Gracie I hope Lewis gets the target gig, he is so totally adorable.
Sherie woo hoo on the new lights. I am still waiting for my DH, who by the way is an electrician to put up all of my lights.
Agnes I hope you get the reflux sorted.
Well I didnt do any cleaning today. I am obsessed with discovery health and always find something to watch. I love watching all the shows about birth and parenting, I find myself holding my breath and tensing my abs while the woman on TV pushes lol.
