toothbrushes ... got Jacks from either the chemist or Woolies. I honestly don't remember it was that long ago! ROFL
Clare: I try what I have in the house, Brauer, panandol (even 1yrs to 5yrs .. he's got the weight to allow the occasional usuage), nurofen, teething gel, & Hylands Teething Tablets. These are horrible for him. He vomits etc & was even told once to take him to the hosp if he continued.
He's prob gonna be like Alex, Alex has half a molar left to come thro in his whole mouth, and he turns 2 this week. (wrapped all his Bob pres today whilst he was at daycare).
Jack has a dislike for being left alone. I guess he's always had someone around him, whether it be other kids or us watching him from the other kids or the big dogs. It getting tedious though cause lately, we can't even walk from the lounge room to the kitchen.
Yep, I've got Nurofen, dymadon (S prefers this to the taste of panadol) as well as bonjela and the Hylands teething tablets.
Has anyone tried those tablets...they taste like nothing but they sorta do KWIM . S loves them and pops them in her mouth with ease. Shes such a little addict, sucks on the syringes when giving nurofen and dymadon as well. Loves the stuff lol
Oh, take care with the hot stuff L. Fire hurts. haha Rainy tell your dh to get his butt into gear for that cover. We can't not have your full attention on here
S was a nightmare to put down to sleep tonight. I had to walk away twice or I was going to scream. Why can't I have a baby that falls asleep as soon as her head hits the cot? I've really done myself in with how I've raised her, feeding to sleep etc. Argh...over it and to top it off Bones is back on tonight at 9.30 and I can't record it! So now gotta to stay awake to watch it...although thank god it is back on...I want Bones and Booth to hook up!
kate: well i finally bought some toothbrushes! (YAY!). i bought the pigeon 3 pack...looks pretty spesh! cant wait to see her using them! at the orthodontist she was forever stealing the brushes off the counter, so no doubt she wont have any probs using them!
ha ha about the clothing sizes! Leila still has some 000 too! it seems so ridiculous, so i rarely admit it! but it's true. i think she has only just gone over the 8 kilo mark by now...have no idea really as we havent had her weighed since she was 8 months and then she was 6.9kgs.
Andie: Leila has also been going through some wee separation moments. funnily enough it's when we are around the house. she goes to kindy 2 days a week and doesnt bat an eyelid, but when we are at home, she wants us in sight! unless of course she is too busy bashing her rattles on the table legs...
i saw the hylands tablets but they looked pretty hardcore to me. i am not great with measuring stuff (i get DH to measure out the panadol LOL!). i guess if the teething gets shocking i'll go the next step. fingers crossed it's smooth sailing pffffttt! LOL!
G: oh i know about the fire place! we have an open gas heater thingy on the wall and we have been meaning to go and buy a fireguard...oops! luckily leila is not at all interested in it, i just worry that during her playing she'll fall on it or something.
you may not be able to buy CR BUT....remember our good friend metalicus!!!!! i bought and wore that stuff constantly when preggers (and still do!). they have some gorgeous dresses out ATM....
hi Cinta! and welcome! of course you can ask questions! we ask many all the time! LOL!
like the others have said you may get more info if you post a general thread in the baby and toddler section about the strawberry marks...afraid i can't help on that one...
MD: oh yeah baby! i have soooo bought Leila her party outfit!! i didnt think i would do it, but, i bought a ridiculous bright orange, pink and red tutu!! oh and she will soo be wearing the fairy wings that i bought when you and i went shopping in that store in manuka!!!!! i LOVE that store! wish it had of been there when i lived there!
that sprout store is so good. i could never resist going in there when we did our groceries at supabarn...oh them were the days! i cant believe i am nostalgic. what is wrong with me???
Arte: OMG that W is so gorgeous! man he is really speaking! what a gorgeous thing! you guys must be so proud!

Rainy - OMG i am sooo p'd off, i got home and the catalogue with discount was there waiting for me... AFTER i spent a small fortune there.. today i bought 2 dresses, a v casual tracksuity one and also a gorgeous tailored denim one (good for work on non meeting days and for casual). i also bought a sut there a week ago.. GRRRRR... oh well will have to make use of the voucher for some mroe of the stuff i have my eye on. I agree w cassius make your way to metallicus, that is practically all i wore all through preg and i still wear it.. gorgeous stuff i there too now, i wish we had a store here!
Kate - i have a baby toothbrush. i havent used it yet though LOL! i went to the dentist today and he also gave me some baby paste from 6 months use and told me to start brushing N's teeth. more to get him into the habit...
where's sherie???
sorry girls everything else has gone out of my mind.. i will go get myself organised and pop back on when my mind is clearer.
am going to herbalist tomorrow - before i fly out!!
hey there i just wanted to jump in and quickly say that anyone having trouble getting bubs to sleep should try a sleep cd!! i bought a lullaby cd for asha made by fisher price for ten bucks from target the other day and its made a huge difference for us.. we are three days into using it and i have managed to get her to sleep all three nights in her bed (previously we would let her fall asleep in the bouncer and carefully put her in bed).. i stay next to her as long as she is laying down quietly, if shes naughty and getting up i leave for 5 minutes and come back and the second time ten minutes and come back but as long as shes laying and beeing good i stay next to her.. the first night i went out of the room twice and she went to sleep by the 6th song on the cd, the second night i only went out once and she was asleep by the 4th song on the cd.. drum roll please!!! tonight i didnt have to leave the room at all and she was asleep halfway through the 2ND SONG!!!!
she is still waking up and coming to bed with us but i dont mind as long as she sleeps a few hours in her cot atleast (atm shes doing 5-7 hours in her cot).. i am so excited we might be able to try and move her back to her own room in a few weeks if it keeps going well!!!
hope everyones doing well be back tmw for some personals..
OMG Kate! me too! they so should hook up! even if for just an episode...it's like the modern day scully and mulder! LOL!
we dont have probs putting L to sleep for the night but for the last 3 weeks she has been waking up in the early hours (1-3am) and refusing to go back to sleep without a feed grrrr! i am with you on the feed to sleep! it's my own fault, but doesnt make the reality any easier.
Noni: oohh i think i need that cd for the middle of the night rampages!
we used the hylands teeting tabs on alex .. & do you think a chemist wld have them around here! had to get the name from someone in QLD & get a chemist to especially order them.
yeah alex didn't like the panadol either. dymadon worked a treat with taste! now they usually have jadin's chemist own brand (when I have it in stock).
jack's not too bad going to sleep .. only if you try & put alex down with jack awake then its all on for jack. we, sorry, I have little probs with jack going down. just keeping him asleep during the night. decided last nite its time for him to start finding his dummy on his own at midnite instead of getting mum up every hour to hour & a half!
