We had a breakthrough with sleeping at last. DD went to sleep by herself after we left her to it. We put her to bed, she was wide awake and we left and I kept checking on her, and then she was just asleep. The coolest bit is we weren't at home. We stayed in Mildura over the weekend and she did it there! She could see us through the window - the shape of the house we stayed in meant that she could look through one window and see into another where we were sitting, but she's never ever done that before. We've lost our sleeping through the night pattern - she was going well and then I started lifting her back into our bed while I was still sleeping, so we've gone backwards, but I'm happy to start again. Persistence right?!
hi all! sorry I've been MIA...I've been a bit busy with my new baby girl! Elizabeth Joy was born on the 12th May at 6:43pm, weighing in at 9lb11oz (4.390kg), length 52cm, head circ 37cm. Labour and birth was awesome (read about it via link in my sig if u're interested), natural and drug free and nice and quick! I left hospital 3.5 hours after birth and recovering well. Elizabeth is such a darling, and Susie is a fantastic big sister! Only 2 signs of her struggling with the new addition - she isn't gonig to sleep as well as she used to at night, often takes 1.5 - 2 hours of her coming out and being put back to bed to get her to sleep, and the last 2 weeks at swimming lesson she hasn't wanted to do anything she's told, only wants to play in the water! She loves her little sister though and likes to say 'hello Lizzie' and give her a kiss and a cuddle! I'm supposed to be doing housework so I better get back to it (Dh took Susie to playgroup and being its his last day home before going back to work I thought I would take the opportunity to do some stuff around the house so it's nice at least for today so he's not stressed about it before he goes back!!)
Back from the Dr, Even he said she is getting worse. It's nice to know it's not just my imagination.
Anyways she was sent off for a whooping cough swab & what a joy that was.
She also has more Ab's for her chest infection & a ventolin to help with her cough as it sounds Asthmatic now.
Can't believe how expensive everything was to buy!
Poor little M was up at 11pm last night coughing & she didn't stop till 5am this morning when she finally feel asleep.
Everytime she would breath she'd cough it was horrible.
Today she's been coughing all day with 5mins breaks in between attacks.
Ahhh, I didn't get a notification for your last post, Mo! Have the coughs gone, or easing at least?
I'd love to meet you! Wonder what mischief our girls could get up to
We went camping on the weekend, DD went flying and smashed her mouth on the table in our camper. I totally freaked out, thinking that there was no way she was getting out of that without a missing tooth, but she was okay and I cried for longer than she did! We had news too that someone we know is pg and I was sort of pleased to feel a bit of jealousy rear its head. I guess that means I'm somewhat ready to try again. But not entirely. Want to give it a bit more time, my body's been a bit warped after the m/c.
Hope you're all going well and starting to get those beautiful round pregnant bellies, or enjoying having little bubs.
