MD, did BFC have a good birthday? Did he get any presents?
Noni, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!
Will fell off the bed today. He had a red mark but it seems to have disappeared. He always calls me when he wakes but this time he decided to go and see the heater at the end of the bed. Lucky I turned it off this morning.

Congratulations Noni- you wont know yourself in your on space, you can run around nude and everything!
Cassius- The salt thing is really hard. I was wondering if i should give her vegemite or not. I put a tiny scraping on toast for her. But alot of things have salt in them, cheese for example...... i guess that's why i though i little bit of stock would be ok.
We only had one sleep here today, it was a 2 hour one, so i guess that's not so bad, although i feel like she needs 2. She's been up since 12, watching me potter around outside making a bird feeder. Hopefully she sleeps ok tonight.
How many sleeps are you guys managing a day?
Artechim- Poor little man, hope he is ok. Last night Lu pulled a magazine off the coffee table with a coffee mug on it, the mug fell on her head and gave her a big egg. I felt so terrible. They seem to get so battered.
Trillian- i meant to say i was watching a show on TV the other night, a woman started a business making goats milk soap because it was so effective at relieving her sons eczema.

Hello Ladies hope you are all well....
Bit of a selfish post:
Feeling like a TERRIBLE mum today. We just spent the past few hours at Princess Margaret Hospital with Maddie, she has bronchiolitis! I went to work today, while my mum babysat. I booked a doc's appt for as late as possible, at 4.45 and left work early. So off we went at 4ish and she looked and sounded terrible. Well I should have said stuff work and got an early as possible appt, because I rocked up to the doc who took one look at her chest and said she is struggling to breathe. I almost died, I felt incredibly bad. He said go to the hospital asap. She also wasnt taking any fluids or solids during the day which was extra worrying. We got to the hospital, absolutely fretting, and she was a good girl and took a bottle. Then they gave her ventalin a few times and that helped alot too. We just got home, they decided not to keep her o/night because she has started taking her bottles again. I have to keep a very close eye on her for the next few days. Sherie was it you saying a few weeks ago that a runny nose can run down into the chest and cause infections? Well thats exactly what happened to Maddie, so its a lesson learnt there for us not to take runny noses so lightly.
Must add, big congrats Noni on your house!!!!

i am pretty sure you were just talking about this butwhat do your bubs have for breakie? asha has been haviong that raffertys cereal with some pureed fruit mixed in pretty much every day.. every now n then we give her toast n vegemite but i dnt think its as filling.. yesterday i gave her weet bix with half milk half hot water and the fruit on top and she absolutely loved it.. dosnt seem to be any probs with the milk.. anyone got any other ideas or is asha doomed to eat cereal lol?? maybe theres diff cereals i could give her for some variety atleast?
oh haley your not a bad mum!! you didnt know it was serious and everything turned out oksorry maddie is sick though hope she gets better asap!!
ange - asha has 2 day sleeps but they are only usually a half hour one in the morning and if i am lucky and i keep bouncing the bouncer when she looks like she might wake up in the avo she can sometimes go an hour.. i wouldnt worry 2 hours is great!!
arte - lol bloody heaters! asha is really interested in ours too even turned off grrrr... i caught asha by the ankles the other day just before her head hit the ground off the bed lol little bugger!
renee- glad your feeling a bit better about everything now.. how annoying about the health nurse not answering your calls!!

MM - poor little Maddie, hope she had a better sleep last night after the ventolin. Did they give you antibiotics as well? You're not a bad mum, it's hard knowing what to do, especially when they get sick over a weekend and you can't go to the doctor.
Noni - K has either weetbix or porridge for breakfast with fruit. If she still seems hungry after I've given her that I'll do some toast (with either vegemite or cream cheese) so she can have that as finger food. We have the Rafferty's cereals in the cupboard but as they are iron fortified we're keeping away from them (constipation). We give her straight cows milk too, don't bother watering it down.
Tried posting 3 times last night but it kept timing out on me.
Cassius - I use the salt reduced stock and do it a bit less concentrated than they recommend (ie use a bit less powder)
Falguni - we're only doing 2 sleeps now, but it's only been like that for a couple of weeks. Unfortunately I'm going to have to wake her up to go to the MHCN this afternoon if she does more than one cycle. Hopefully she'll have a power snooze in the car on the way home.
MIL rang last night and is taking us out to lunch for my birthday tomorrow which will be good.
I did a Pilates DVD this morning - then walked to the shops and bought a bag of mixed lollies! At least I did some excercise but probably didn't really need the lollies.
