Bubba T - glad your little man is OK. Dont feel guilty at all! I remember DD1 had ear infections like that too - and I too had just taken her swimming, didn't realise it was as bad as it was, but took her to the Dr the next day and when he took her temp it was 40! it hadn't been that high the night before. DD1 got them everytime she got a tooth - is your DS getting more teeth? fortunatley DD2 has been OK with the ears (touch wood). thought teething still puts her out of sorts - she only has 2!
good luck with your 2WW - I am just hanging out for Ov! DD1 going through night feeding again, and putting my cycles all out of whack!
yes, little O, she has been ALL NIGHT night feeding some nights. she has always been a heavy night feeder. We haven't had consistent right through sleeps. A few times I htought it would happen - she would go for a day or two with all night sleep, only to "trick" me (I swear! LOL) by returning to night feeding again. but the last two months has been at least 2 or 3 times (and again, sometimes me laying with her in my arms attached to the boob asleep in the loungechair all night). And the whole feeding thing takes around 45-mins to an hour (because I have to keep her up for a bit because of reflux) so yes, I am dead tired too! OH FOR SLEEP!! and also, its really messing with my cycles (they are really eratic and often anovulatory) after a bout of especially heavy feeding. And I have horrible acne because of it (that and the sleep depravation) URGH! but she is so happy. she just WON'T breast feed during the day (just wants food), ESPECIALLY if we are out and there is something to look at........ oh well..... sigh... yawn.....
oh and it could be teeth, she has two and has been pulling at her ears, but no ear infection (thank god!). her sister had 8 teeth by now, hers used to come in pairs and in fours all at once! now that was fun as she also got double ear infections with them.....
breakie time ..... DD1 is at day care today, so I am going to try and have all DD2's sleeps with her!! zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz............
Little O - thanks for asking DS is doing much better now. Back to his cheeky self.
Archers Mum - Welcome!! How are you finding motherhood?
Milly - I hope O has been and gone and you have managed to catch the egg
AFM - Life is so crazy busy at the moment I feel like DS's babyhood is just slipping by. I need to stop and enjoy him a bit more I think. I get so caught up in the never ending housework when I get home from work. Oh well nothing to be done but suck it up I guess. Sometimes I love being a working mum, sometimes I hate it.
