Night 3 of middle night wake up grrrr so much better if J was waking lol

**Sammiejane** · July 22nd, 2011, 07:38 AM

Are you ok Kylie, are you stressed about work and that's disturbing your sleep?

The longest stretch of sleep Miss A did last night was 2 hours and 15 minutes. She woke me 5 times overnight

even when she came home from hossy she slept better.
I know it is a phase, but I am feeling like you did yesterday Jaki...

Hope everyone else had a better night.

Hey girls just popping in to do a quick catch up and say hi before i start back at work in 5 days,

Kylz-All i can say about the car seat photo is F#ck em you are not breaking any laws if J is the right AGE and WEIGHT and you would know in yourself if he is ready to go forward facing when my boys went into there forward facing it was because we had an older car and the rear facing kept touching the 2 fronts seats and we were told was dangerous so we turned the seat around before 6mths.
We had to ditch Ella's capsule and hire another birth to 4 yr seat as she just was to squished in the capsule but is not old enough or ready for a forward facing seat yet isnt strong enough in the neck or back but she is much happier in her new bigger seat.

Good luck with the job interview.

Kitty- sorry to here about your cousin.

Jaki- Are you serious people whinge cause molly was in the bassinett while bub wasnt even here yet lol i let my 2 sleep in Ella's bassinette bouncer and cot before she was born so they were use to it and it wasnt a new thing when bub came home they got the novalty out of there system before she came home.

I mean come on i should post my picks of ella sleeping on a pillow and wait and see what flak i cope she has had a flat baby pillow from 10 weeks for her reflux and i know i would cop the SID'S speech from people but i also have an angel care monitor for peace of mind she also has a snuggle bear in her cot lol i wonder what they would say about that.

Ellasmummy-No baby nameing day here my boys were christened cause their fathers family are catholic but my DH and i are not so Ella will not be done and naming days dont faze me but i have been to a few and they are a nice thing to do for babies.

Jaki-Miss Ella pinches me and she is bottle fed little bugger!

AFM-Still fat havnt lost anymore weight so i am hitting my treadmill now i put my work pants on and i have a muffin top :-( so over it.
Ella sleeps most nights from 7pm to 7am if she dosnt have a decent day sleep she is in bed by 5pm and then waks at 4am for a bottle so i have to force her to have a good day sleep but i cant complain 9 times out of 10 she sleeps all night.

Not looking forward to going back to work all nights and even a 3am finish YUK! but i need to work so have to suck it up and deal with it at least i am home all day with Ella.

Ella is a dream she loves playing on her mat and in her jumperoo and even lays in her cot watching her mobile for up to an hour just talking to herself she has 4 bottles a day of 200mls (dont know why she is so chubby) she really isnt fussed on solids she might have a little custard or farex before her last bottle but most nights wont have it so i dont push it she loves her milk more she is
7.9Kg in the nuddy above average
Is 64cm long normal
And H/C is 43cm normal.
So she is a little porker she is in 00 for most clothes but 0 for jumpers and jackets.

Anyway good to see you are all well and i will pop in from time to time to catch up.

**Beautiful Disaster** · July 22nd, 2011, 07:47 AM

I don't know SJ it's pinging me off but the only thing diff is I put the elec blanket on and tuned the doona around so now all the down is at the top and it's heavy

**WeeMansMummy** · July 22nd, 2011, 11:21 AM

W was up 3 times. Not to bad, could be better

Hope you get better sleep tonight SJ, kylz you need to relax in your sleep!

Well im chopping off my hair today, i know it wont stop it falling out but at least it will be shorter hairs!

**~Lashes~** · July 22nd, 2011, 02:14 PM

well hello ladies.
hope your all going good!
Jaki, dont feel bad, i was having a fearl day yesterday and let A cry for a while, so i could get dinner sorted for the older kids, she sooked herself to sleep.
Felt bad as she slept from 5pm, i woke her at 1am changed her gave her a bottle and went to bed, she slept till 7

i was expecting a sleepless night. She has been up all day so far and as i typed that, she put her head on my shoulder and is out!

just wish Krystal would take some lessons! she just cried to sleep, flapping on the floor like a fish out of water as i wont let her play with the sewing machine

A is loosing her baby laugh, the sweet little baby giggles are becoming full on fits of laughter. She even tried to roll the other night!

i couldnt belive it, lying on her back, flicking her legs to the side and putting a lean into it, but just wasnt enough to get over... NO MISS YOUR STAYING THE BABY. end of story

Started A on solids, little bugger is doing acrobatics in my arms every time i have coffee or food trying to get it off me gave her some hinze (hate the stuff but DF stocked up when K started,

she refused to eat it!) i love the faces they pull with the first taste new flavours, so cute, almost like everying is sour.

Hope the sleep fairy visits you all tonight! i have to stop going to bed at 1/2 when i know ive got to be up at 6

**WeeMansMummy** · July 22nd, 2011, 06:05 PM

Sooooo.... I let dh give w a bottle of formula today

I was in desperate need of a haircut and I could only express 5mls. It takes me 3 days to express a bottle of bm. I can't relax and it just won't come.
The formula was given to me by a friend who I get a sense thinks I'm close to a break down! Lol

I just feel like I've opened a window and I'm not sure about it.

Stephen keeps teasing me saying he isn't a formula virgin anymore.

**~Lashes~** · July 22nd, 2011, 07:40 PM

try to not stress over it, can i smack him out for you?

i could never express, you havent opend anything. its your choice and if he needs the odd ff once in a while, or its the only way you can get some Jaki time, then its what you need to do! we all need our sanity keepers!

my baby can hold her bottles

i thought it was a fluke thismorning, but 3 she has held on her own for the last 40 or so mls

no bubba, your ment to stay the baby, your sister is indapendent enough for the both of you!

i jinxed it earlier, she has had one hour all day of broken sleep, surely thats not normal for a 4mo baby?

**WeeMansMummy** · July 24th, 2011, 08:02 AM

Yes it's crazy, it's about a year since I got the call from the fertility dr saying the Ivf worked. I should get my Ivf chart out and see exactly when it was!

**Beautiful Disaster** · July 24th, 2011, 06:40 PM

Well I turned Jayden car seat around put photo on fb and BAM slander on the spot

I give up seriously it's not worth it then to top it off while changing him this morning he slipped and hit his head on the window frame

been one of those days.

Oh and I found out I was preg in 5 July lol

**KittyK** · July 24th, 2011, 09:04 PM

Kylz: aww you poor thing getting slammed for just posting a photo. personally im not turning Chase's seat until his feet touch the chair lol cos i am waaaayy too lazy

Also i dont know how to put the chair in or out, DH put it in and whenever its been taken out its always been by DH or my dad.

jenna: oh elise slow down!!! lol Chase still has no interest in rolling

I found out I was preg 4th July, sooooo long ago

My cousin just found out she is expecting a baby in March, they have been trying for a year so I am so excited for them. I'm hoping its a girl so Chase can have a girlfriend (I should probably add that my cousin isn't really my cousin, our mothers met when they were pregnant with their first children and have been best friends since then, and we just call them our cousins phew about to go into incest territory there LOL)

well its begun...his growth spurt started today. He's been clingy, feeding every 2 hours and sleeping more often than usual (unfortunately not for longer). just awesome....the next few days are going to be awesome....

**Sammiejane** · July 24th, 2011, 09:30 PM

Yep its soooooo fantastic here

**ellasmummy** · July 24th, 2011, 10:58 PM

I'm dreading this growth spurt everyones bubs is having, both my girls are sick, so a bit of a whingey miserable household here

have Chloes naming day this weekend so hope they get better quickly.
Jak don't feel bad about doing a ff, gotta do what ya gotta do. x did you get your hair chopped?
Kylz I missed that, but pffft to them, don't worry about it. I cram my poor kids in rear facing for as long as possible, but each to their own. I kept ella rear facing til she was 2, she was in awe when her seat was turned around lol. We have taken Chloe out of the capsule and into a normal carseat, Omg the change!! Wish I never got the bloody capsule
Kitty Hahaha about the incest, that's the first thing I thought!!
Sarah I hate when they lose the baby giggle!
Jj Chloe has been blowing rasberries for a couple of weeks now, Sooo cute! Except when I'm trying to give her losec Grrr.
Hi everyone else!!!

**Beautiful Disaster** · July 25th, 2011, 07:19 AM

Too many to name. He was kicking the seat and trying to sit up all the time and then would end up screaming cause he was over it. It is almost 9kg and his head control is awesome. Im stilll not sure but made me feel better that 2 others in here have aswell
