Afternoon lassies,

Glad all the ladies out there got what they wanted at the sales. I wasnt really interested in buying any toys cos i figure Adrian will get butt loads of toys from family at christmas, like he did at the babyshower. Right now he is happy with the few teddys and rattles he has and a second hand jolly jumper a friend gave us. I think i will hold off the crazy spending for later in his life when he can remember and say 'thanks mummy'

Took Adrian to get his 4 month shots today, was very good, cried for 2 seconds and then i had him giggling like crazy, he has a memory like a goldfish. He is now nearly 70cm long and just under 8kg!!!! Little fatty! I love his chubby little thighs! He is going to be one big healthy boy and the nurse said he was the healthist, happiest baby shes seen in a long time. The nurse said we can now also turn his car seat around to face the front, Yay!

Pretty sure Adrian has an eye tooth coming in as he has a little hard lump on the roof of his gums and chews his fists on that side like crazy, guess we'll wait and see.

We had a few solid feed test runs this week with some farex and once with some pureed pumpkin. He seems to really like it but i think we will hold off proper solid feeding until he is 6 months, he seems satisfied with his bottles so no use rushing into solids when he is still happy with milk. Ive almost completely stopped BFing, i know the books say to drop a feed once a week but ive basically stopped BFing in just over a week! He just stopped feeding during the day and my milk went wayyy down. I was worried i was going to get mastitis but my boobs feel fine, not even sore anymore. Feel a bit guilty and sad and i think maybe i should have tried harder to get him to keep feeding but, i guess its too late now. I have heaps more room in my underwear draw as i have shelved all my feeding bras until baby #2, plus i have a friends fancy dress housewarming coming up so guess what i'll be doing.....Drinking!!!!!

Anyway, hope all the mummmies are doing well

Hugs
