Kitty - I'm sorry about your cousin hun *hugs*
Sarah - Oh my goodness she is so petite! And here I was thinking that Elise was small for still being under 6kg lol we'll have to compare next week, we'll be up in melbourne on the thursday so just need to plan where to meet up :)
Hi everyone else!
afm - not much happening here, we're all over the flu, Elise still hasn't figured out how to get from her side onto her tummy - it's funny watching her try lol
And I'm waiting impatiently for mine and hubbies tax returns to come through :)
Oh and my right boob is killing me... not sure what the go is, but I've had stabbing pains going through it for 3 days now, no swelling, heat or redness, just the pains... probably because I O'd last week but meh, It would be nice for it to just bugger off.
-
jenna: ouch that sounds painful, your poor boobie.
Went to the hospital for the appt today. Told me stuff I pretty much already knew but they checked him over and said Chase is developing very well and they are happy with his progress. They said I have to persevere through tummy time, gah. I asked whether the cloth nappy would affect his rolling and they said it shouldn't but maybe try him nudie on his back and see. Did that when I got home and straight away Chase had his feet up in his hands and was rolling onto his side. So im going to use disposables for a while :( I'm going to miss you cloth nappies. Doesnt go from his side to his tummy but at least thats something, him doing a half roll without me physically rolling him hehe.
DH had first day at work, went awesome and came home in his new work ute :) Also found out that the pay rate went up as of 1st july so instead of getting $32.70/hr like he thought its $34.10/hr. Life is looking up.
-
Kitty it looked like the cloth was stopping Wyatt too but he rolls onto his side exactly the same with or without. They will get over when the really want to :D
Ps- I've been using sposies the last couple of days too :( between being sick and a wee bit mental and stressed I need to not do anything that causes extra work for myself.
-
jaki: every time he rolls on his side im like 'roll ***** roll!' and he never does :( loves standing though :)
-
Lol same here! I give him a wee nudge ;)
-
Hey, just thought I would point out that most of us would have been in cloth and all our parents would have been... Cloth nowadays is less restrictive than some of the bulky Terry squares our parents would have put us in :)

yay for dh's job kitty!
chloe has been rolling for ages and she is in full time cloth.....she can scoot around on her belly now, not too co ordinated, but really surprised me!! she can do a full roll too, and did it this morning in a night nappy and sleeping bag, so pretty bulky :)
hope you're feeling better jaki x
kylz how did the job interview go?
-
Kitty - yay for DH's first day at work and the good pay! Maybe Chase just prefers to go nudie? lol DS loves being nudie, but we can't trust him not to pee on the floor lol he likes to sit on his potty but doesn't do anything in it, so I think he's just going to be late in toilet training. Elise will probably be toilet trained before he is
And yeah, my boob really hurts, it's not all the time, but it feels a bit tender in a general sense itms, and if I move suddenly or knock it I get the stabbing pains. I had a moment this morning where I thought I could be pregnant again as I felt a bit queasy, but there's no way I could be as we didn't DTD until after I O'd lol and then I realised I hadn't eaten yet and that was why I was feeling queasy lol
Jaki - *hugs* hope you feel better soon hun xx
ellasmummy - oh wow on Chloe scooting around already!
afm - Elise just put her dummy in her mouth all by herself! lol it's attached to a nuk dummy chain so she can hold onto the chain and doesn't loose it, but she can still put it in there lol DS couldn't even do that until he was around 9 months old!
Hehe, I'm always shocked at how quickly Elise is picking up things compared to DS, my boy must just be a bit slow in that department, he only just started being able to feed himself with a spoon the other day, but he's a smarty pants when it comes to locks - especially child safety locks and gates lol
-
Lou it was **** lol so glad they called back to say I didn't get it lol would have hate to say no thanks
-
Kylz - bummer on the possible job being so sh*t, there's plenty more out there though.
afm - hubby still hasn't been paid :( It was due to go into his account on tuesday night/wednesday morning, and it's still not frickin there! And I don't get paid until next week, we need milk, petrol for the car, meat and fruit, and we can't bloody get any of it! Hubby isn't the only one who hasn't been paid either, anyone at his work who is with the commonwealth bank got paid and everyone else hasn't been paid yet... so ****ed off right now! We need wipes too, haven't even got any cloth ones and I'm not even game to try and use the good facewashers on DS's rank butt when he does number 2's... I'd ruin them :(
It's bad enough that the other chef's have started the "Us-And-Them" approach with hubby and one of the lady chef's (a lovely lady with 2 boys only 1 & 2yrs older than DS, her youngest was around 10+wks prem and she had GD, so we have some good long chats on the few occasions we get to catch up) they're all just ridiculously immature and need a good slap in the face & kick up the bum.
Hubby hasn't been in a good frame of mind for a few weeks because of their ****, and DS and I are picking up on it and it's making us grumpy and down... it's really taking a toll on our relationship :(
Blah, sorry for the rant, just really ****ed off with hubby's work.
-
jenna: rant away, i hear you on being ****ed off with workplaces. did you end up getting the money eventually, would of thought it would have to come through by now. And yes Chase does love the nudie, he also loves peeing on me while in the nudie lol. I had a towel down and him on it and usually when he pees it doesnt go into the air so I wasn't too worried then DH called so I was on the phone and suddenly he just lets off this stream and just pees all over my pants....
lou: without the cloth Chase does the shimmy big time. and he also ends up in the strangest positions lol.
sammie: i didnt think cloth was affecting him, I know cloth isnt supposed to affect rolling but since I changed him to disposable as soon as I lie him down his legs are up in the air and he is rolling onto his side. And today twice he rolled all the way onto his tummy (cried both times but he still ended up there). Maybe its just a Chase thing, doesn't think he can do it in cloth but loves doing it in disposable. I also use mostly baby beehind at home so they are pretty bulky and i dont think he can get his chubba legs all the way up to roll over with them on lol oh well im happy, at least i know he can do back to belly, even if it does make him cry hahaha ill wait till he gets the hang of it then back in clothies he will go, then he can work for it mwahahahaha

Hi everyone!!
have read but can not remember what i was going to say..
so tired, krystal is being a pita wont go to sleep untlii well after 1 am, runs arround doing anything and everything possible that dosent involve sleep, i have to lay down pinning her down and giving A her bottle or they wont go to sleep. A just laughes if B tries to give her her bed bottle, and krystal screams and punches if he tries to get her to sleep :rolleyes:
Df is officialy on the books at work next week! finly only took a year n half, and his employment place giving the boss $6g :o hopefully that means a decent pay, not just 100 cash end of each full day, 50 if they get rained out. and hopefully every day. heres hoping!
Anyones bub chomp on there fingers? the last 4 days miss A has been chomping on her fingers, realy hard even over done it a few times and gagged.no idea why she started, its either just one finger or her whole hand:o
i tried to figure out how to use my wrap yeasterday, she loves being on my back, ive never heard so many giggles and babbles at once!
Jenna, definatly up for next week, just let me know when, thursdays its just me and the girls. (i figured out another bus from here this week so can now get to parkmore and southland on my own!) mini acievemnet for me.
A rarly gets nuddie time, if K is up, she gets a wee bit fasinated over the fact that A is the same as her "down there" so i try limit nuddie time to K's naps, lately thats very rare, damn todlers and there sleep is evil...
i know she is to little, but i put A in the todler seat of the pram, k was asleep when it was school pick up time so didnt want to wake her. A must have thought it was tops, all smiles and giggles looking arround everywere! she has also been doing the backwards shimy, pushes her feet down and straightens her legs, is a real pain when im trying to change her.
-
Kitty - his pay finally came in yesterday afternoon, just in time as we'd run out of formula. Thank goodness I get paid on tuesday and wednesday, then I can do a proper shop. lol on him peeing on your pants.
Elise rarely gets nudie time because of DS, he's so curious because she's different from him lol, but when she does she loves it.
Sarah - Sweet :) Yay on finding the new bus too :) I have to catch the bus during the day when hubby isn't home and I want to go somewhere, so know how proud you must be :) And yay for DF being on the books!
Southland is the one near Brighton isn't it? In Cheltenham? hubby suggested meeting up there yesterday. I did start a thread in the meet ups/local members section, thought I'd invite some other BB ladies as well if they were interested, make a big day of it lol I'll have $200 to spend on the day, more if I can budget my centerlink payments better, thank goodness the Spotlight store near Brighton is pretty crummy or I'd end up spending it all there lol
And Elise chomps on her finger, and gags on them to, has been doing so for about a month or so.
Anyone else have bubs that won't sleep without a toy of some sort?
Elise won't sleep unless she has her taggie and at least 2 other toys squished up against her face in the bassinet. If they're not there then she either wont sleep at all or will wake up numerous times during the night.
-
ahhh! I'm turning into the screaming banshee woman today, DS is being a total feral and won't do what he's told and keeps on waking up Elise!
-
Sarah - i have sat Aurora up in the pram sometimes, she loves it too... it sort of depends on what we are doing as to how i have her.
Re the chewing on fingers, A has been doing that for a while now and pulling her ears, i think she is a bit irritated by her gums...
Southland and parkmore are both 15 mins from me in opposite directions...
Jenna, i didnt see that thread, but just let me know which day you are going and i will come down... Yay for $200 :)
Kylie - sorry about the job
Kitty - sorry of that came across wrong about the cloth... and yay for DH starting :)
Hi everyone else...
AFM (or Aurora) she was weighed and measured this week
Length - 64cm
weight - 6910gm
H/C - 41.5
she is on the 75th %ile for everything except her head which is about 50%
Still not sleeping great, but a bit better... going down around 8pm up for a feed around 11am and again at 3pm, then waking around 5am but i dont feed her again, just resettle... I wonder where my sleeper went, she was only this bad in her first 2 weeks and then i was only up with her once! Oh well, im sure :pray: it wont last too much longer
Took Aurora swimming on Thursday, she LOVED it... she kicked in the water the whole time and cracked it when we got out. Stuffed her sleeps a bit as she was due to sleep before swimming, but she didnt and then was buggered but starving after swimming so didnt feed properly and then woke grumpy 45 mins later and we found it hard to catch up for the rest of the day.
I am going to take her every week now when MJ has her lesson, but probably not for as long as i wont have anyone else with me (my sister came this week)
Thats it from me Hope everyone else is well
-
SJ - We'll be up there on Thursday morning as long as we get up early lol I'm looking forward to it, should be fun :) I can't wait to spend a bit of money on ME lol :P
