Bubba.....that's pretty awesome for sleep. RB is similar. Basically cat naps during the day, sometimes up to an hour at a time and very rarely 2 or 3 hours. It does my head in but I reason it's just how she is and I am not going spend hours trying and failing, or for the trying time to be longer than the sleep time. I reckon it will settle soon, or not. It sort of suits anyway with having a toddler.
Good luck at sleep school.....they use controlled crying by and large. I always found it too hard for me. My friend with twins wennt and hated it, but used the skills later.
Little O .....back is mostly fine, but I have to be careful. I had my first ever case of mastitis last week.eek, and it was mild and I didn't need antibiotics. But crikey. What herb helps ward it off?
Babies at this age are so cute. They seem to all be doing perfectly. RB has had green exolosive smelly poo since 6 weeks of age, and she's coming good now. Apparently nothing to worry about in her case as she was still thriving. But I weigh her weekly , just in case.She has temporary functional lactose deficiency.....or a lactose overload. She was in a lot of distress for a while, so maybe she had a virus as she did one mega spew before the green poo? But she was never off her milkies. Anyway, she seems on the mend. I had an appointment with a dieticican yesterday to see if my diet was contributing. No! Yay.
Is the Facebook group a secret group? I might join if it is.
Hope everyone is well. Still mad keen for another baby here, but am not going to stop breast feeding to get my cycle back. And need some time to assess if it's right for our family.
Enjoy your precious babies. Oh just for interest what do they weigh now? RB is 6.4 and HB 14kg.

Hi ladies! It's been forever since I jumped on here! I'm now using the tapatalk app, but I can't see previous threads when I type my reply! Not too helpful, oh well!
Bubba - how cute you taught Ur Xav to poke out his tongue! We've been trying to teach Xav & my nephew, hehe, but no luck so far!
Dory - yep, the fb group is secret! Would be great to see you over there :)
I can't remember much else (as I can't see it), cept weight & milestones?! My Xav weighed 6kgs about a week ago. He's remained that weight for about 3wks now but I've noticed he's getting longer! We have our 4mth needles around the corner soon! :( As for milestones, my Xman is on the slower side! Still no rolling or grasping anything. He has found his hands though & has started to laugh. Oh and he blows saliva bubbles, some days I need to put a bib on him! Oh and he HATES tummy time! Lol.

I had Miss A weighed last week and she was 5.5kgs and 63cm long, so just above the 90th odd percentile for length and below the 40th for weight. Typical for my girls, except they tend to drop the percentile for weight and height. Miss E at 4.5 years old is only 13kgs. She is blowing heaps of bubbles too, and slobbering someting chronic. Two bottom teeth coming through so the dribble is constant. Even with bibs I'm having to change her tops two or three times a day purely for dribble wetness.
Dory - come over to facebook. Its a lovely way to keep in touch knowing that its private. And hey, now I can say I use facebook! Good to hear that your little girl is doing so well, and your diet is in the clear. I can't do controlled crying either. Maybe we need to swap bodies though - I got AF back smack on the same timing as I would have after DD1 had I not fallen pregnant before she ever showed her ugly face. Would have been nice to have gone AF free for a bit longer.

Hi mammas!!
Thought I'd see how you were all going seeing I don't have fb :)
Dd is 8 months now and going non stop. She crawls she stands, tries to walk on the furniture, sits up, rolls over and is attempting to talk. She has two teeth and seems to be getting 2 more!
Sigh it's non stop changes for her. They grow soooo fast!
-
Hi little o,
I am still about :) DS will be 8 months on Thursday, its amazing how quickly it seems to pass isn't it.
DS is just hands and knees crawling forward and is trying to stand up but hasn't quite figured how to get there yet. He has finally cut his 1st tooth on the weekend, thank goodness cause its been months of seething gahh.
He is at daycare 5 days a week and absolutely loves it.
Besides that we are back Ttc a sibling as you know. We will only have 1 more but can't wait to be PG again
-
Yay for when the tooth comes through! Dd was the same, grizzly until it came through, and two came within a week of eachother! Not sure if she's cutting her top ones now. She's either teething or has a cold.
How long has he been in child care? That's good he loves it.
Time goes so fast doesn't it!
-
In hope the next one is soon and then can we have a break for a week or 2 please lol.
He has been doing 4 days a week since the start of december but went to five days a few weeks ago.
The spoil him rotten or so I hear :)
Do you have to return to work?
-
Ha because he's a cutie I'm sure :)
I do a bit from home but its only a couple hours here and there so I can work it around dd.
How many days do you work?
-
Full time here unfortunately. Maybe I can go parttime after the next bub. I am seriously clucky again.
-
Wow you're doing well! No bfp yet then? ;)
Did you try brauer's or infants friend for teething?
-
I have some infants friend but have only given it to him once. Do you use it for teething? How often do you give it?
Nah no bfp yet. Haven't even O'd yet LOL. You are waiting til after your trip right?
I am not expecting to conceive quickly. Took us 17 months of proper trying to get DS. I would be rapt if it was this month though hehe

HI Ladies!!
Little O - I don't have FB either, so nice that someone else is like me! ;) DD2 is not crawling yet, but doing lots of rolling and tummy sliding (commando crawls), and getting frustrated with herself that she can't get there yet!
Bubba T - I have started back at work too, though part time. and DD2 also loves day care, though is exhausted the day after! And we too are TTC #3 - trying some gender swaying to see if we can get a blue one, but aren't really bothered if it doesn't work - the gender swaying I mean. I am seriouly wanting #3, so will be upset if that doesn't work. DD1 took quite a while and some help, but DD2 came faster so heres hoping #3 comes faster too. Though not holding out as I am now 40, and still BF including nights - DD2 is a night feeder! here's to us both getting BFPs soon!
-
BubbaT: Yeah you can use it for teething. I just give it to her when she is a bit grizzly and is having problems sleeping. She loves the stuff. She sucks it out the dropper and gets excited when she sees it!! Seems to work though. She is always a lot calmer after and not so drooly or snotty. Yeah we will wait till we get back/away. It took us 5 months last time so thats why we thought we'd start then. Ideally DH wanted to start September, but i said it will delay it all.
Milly5: yay for no Facebook!!! They do get so frustrated dont they. Its like they have worked out what they want to do but not how to yet! We want to have a blue one next too. I just hated all the temping etc. But unfortunately for me, my cycles are hopeless and so i cant guarantee when i ovulate :(. I love having a girl but i am scared to have two. I didnt have a sister....
