Oh no Miamunchkin, poor wee Fraser!! The little mite hasn't had a good run lately!! I'm sorry to hear that hun, I hope that one day when he is older it's a pretty straight forward op. for him. It's horrible to hear little babies need surgery Speaking of surgeries, our little guy might need a wee plastic surgery one day. His two toes next to his big toe (on both feet) are fused together at the bottom, making the two toes look like wee flippers!! One of the feet is not too bad, but the other is little worse. The paed doesn't think he needs surgery but we are worried he might get picked on at school. I know how horrible little kids can be. The paed said it's a genetic thing, someone in the family had the toes like that. Surely it's not my family......
HB, oil heaters rule!!!! I was told off at the maternal health nurse app. on Tuesday though, as she thinks the temp. at our unit is too high. Cam has got some eczema on his chest, face and one hand, and she said the heating aggrevates it. His room is OK I think, but I think I have the temp too high in the living room where the heater is. I am going to switch it off every now and then during the day so it doesn't get too hot. Soooooo cute about your wee one making the noise before going to sleep!! Cam pretty much talks to himself all day long, it's soooo cute. I recon every day he makes a new sound!
Jelly, I put cotton balls in Cam's ears during bath time as I'm always paranoid water will get in there and he'll get an ear infection. Apparently thay are NOT pretty.
Meercat, yay for the big sleep!!!! We try to give the little guy a bottle around seven, then around 10-10.30 (even if we have to wake him up) and then he goes through to 4 or 5 am. It's great!!!
Well, my poor little guy has got oral thrush....AGAIN! So sick of it, I'm sure that's partly why he keeps fussing with his bottles. Today was a ripper......I fed him at 5 am, then offered a bottle at 9 am, nope!!! then at 10....nope!!! then at 11......NOPE!!!!! The little bugger took one at 12 noon. Helloooooo! At the nurse app. she said not to let him go more than 4 hours between feeds during the day, but also not to force him to feed either. What am I supposed to do then?????? He is above average for his weight (I knew he was!) so she wasn't too concerned that he was fussing with bottles. Would be nice though if feeding time was much more straight forward, I have wasted a LOT of formula so far
Hi to everyone else out there!! Big hugs to you and your bubbies
