Hi ladies...

No idea yet about 1st birthday!!.... Not sure where to have it, our house is small, so don't know what I am going to do yet!!

We have our first tooth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! Noticed it this morning..just a wee little thing it is! so cute!!... We have also managed one or two crawling movement before flopping onto our belly and cracking it! haha...

Hope everyone is well... need to come back when I get a chance to catch up on all the news!

[Freya]

Nothing changed here. Still doing nothing but sitting. Getting his second bottom tooth. Been sick with fevers the last few days but seems to be coming good now.
No plans for first birthday yet but I have booked his first birthday cake smash shoot for march 16.

[Freya]

Oh and he has finally put on more weight. 7.3kg at his 9 month check up.

[Beatrix]

Yay Harri a tooth!!

Freya- awesome weight gain!!


Zoe has just been through a massive milestone couple of weeks!! We have now mastered crawling, pulling up on to furniture, walking around furniture, going from laying down to siting up on her own, clapping and last night she was pushing things around the lounge room walking behind them.

Funny thing is she is absolute in love with clapping and looks so proud of herself. Hehe very cute

Hi Everyone. So much is happening now. Logan has his bottom two teeth and his top two teeth haven't come but the ones next to them have. Is this normal???? They haven't come down very far. He's going to look a bit odd if those top front two don't hurry up.

[DreamBabies]

Oh and Logan is dragging himself around a lot but not getting his chubby belly off the ground as yet.

[Harri]

Hi

DB, I think they get their top front to correspond with their bottom front teeth first! But there's no such thing as normal!

Eleni has now got her second bottom tooth and is crawling around everywhere!... She's not leaving to investigate other rooms yet! thanks goodness!!!!!

Freya, great weight gain by the little man!!

Ok so my boy has little fangs. I can't see the top two middle ones at all. Just the ones next to where the middle ones will be. They're hardly noticeable but funny when he bares his gums. Logan sits up easily on his own and is trying to pull up. DH is moving the cot base down tomorrow.

Is anyone else still breastfeeding? Logan is still on 5 feeds a day. When I'm at work he has one bf bottle and the other formula as I couldn't express enough. My goal was 3 months so I'm pretty happy with 9 months. I think I'll stop at 12 months.

How funny and cute about the teeth!! lol
We moved the base down last week! Lucky we did, she's pulling herself up now!!....

Yes still breast feeding here too!! My goal was also 3-4months and I was going to be super proud to make it to 6 months! So I'm ecstatic with 9.5months so far!!!!
She feeds at at bed time, around 7:30pm, then at about 5-5:30am then mid morning and mid afternoon!....I am also aiming now for 12 months! Will you switch to normal cows milk after that??

[Beatrix]

Still breast feeding here too. Demand feed too. But prob works out it 3-5 times a day depending whether she wakes up at night.

She has 7 teeth too now.

We are also currently sleep training in a pretty gentle way. Trying to get her to go to sleep on her on in the cot. But at the moment I didn't leave her side and still lots of reassurance and making her lay down because apparently standing up is fun.....

I have my niece also for the next 4 weeks 3 days a week and that should be fun. She is taking a bit to adjust and all she wants is to be carried around but unfort that can not happen (hurt my back and well I'm not carrying a baby around all day, I don't do it for DD so won't for her) lots of comfort though but no to being picked up 24/7

[willow5]

Still demand BFing here too. We have 7 teeth lol DB G and DS3 had fangs like that too, vampire babies!! haha G is crawling, cruising, walking behind anything that will move for her and standing up no hands. Has taken a few steps but not really consciously ITMS
I'm much happier with day sleeps now. She has two, one long and one short and has them in her cot The long one is usually 2 hours sometimes more so I am Sooooo grateful for that! Still waking far too many times at night I am a zombie with 5+ wakes still. She has few words too, mum is not one of them grrr lol Boof (our dog), meow, Ba (bath) Pa-pa(grandpa) Duck and yum-yum-yum when she has some food she really likes.We do baby signing too. She signs for milk and when she's ready for bed she signs milk and waves, very cute. They are growing too fast!!

Beatrix loved the 40 weeks in 40 weeks out!

I'm in a panic at the moment I pretty much have been told I don't have a job to go back to on the 19th of Feb when my mat leave finishes. So I am desperately trying to find work. The whole process is terrifying!! I have been in the same job for 13 years so job searching and interviews are a thing of the past for me. I hate interviews I go completely blank lucky to even remember my name and feel like I could vomit any minute Not to mention the sweat that is pouring from my armpits.Nothing a glass of red wouldn't fix but I'm not sure going to an interview slightly tipsy is going to sell me either
It also means stressing about my hours, whether or not they will be accommodating if I need to pump etc I can't be too fussy as money has run out

[DreamBabies]

Harri - we are changing to cows milk at 12 months.

Willow - I can understand your work dilemma. I've been back at work for 7 months now. I'm currently looking for alternate employment to suit. It's a bit of a nightmare. I don't have much time to look.

[Beatrix]

And she is ONE!!

What a amazing year and how fast has it gone!!

[DreamBabies]

My baby is one too. I can't believe it. He's so gorgeous! Happy Birthday my boy.

[Harri]

Hi everyone!!

Is anyone still visiting in here!...??

We are all well..we finally have 5 teeth!! HAHA

Eleni has also stopped feeding... she stopped about one week after her birthday, just like that!!.....She refused it three days in a row so just assumed she wasn't interested anymore!

[Beatrix]

Harri- we stopped bf just after her 1st birthday too. Was happy to make the year.

As for teeth we have almost 16....

[Freya]

I browse. Life's kind of gotten a bit hectic so I dont get here much.

Wilder is still not walking or talking. He has 7 teeth. He is still breastfeeding (and at this rate will do so til he is 21 )
