    Up at 4am.

    Out of the house at 6am for a 7.30am meeting in town.

    Home now. Eaten. Ice creamed.

    About to feed DS2.

    Expressing all out of whack because meetings all ran overtime due to various reasons. BBs not happy!

    Still trying to get over stupid bug.

    Counselling cancelled because counsellor is sick ... not her fault at all, but not happy because this was first post-birth session, and was looking forward to debriefing ... maybe next week!

    Toilet training has commenced ... wish us luck!

    Want to do persies and update the blog - so much has happened ... maybe I'll get to on the weekend ...

    For now, I need a hot drink, some olive leaf extract, some DS2 sneaky snuggles and feeding, and then bed bed bed. Tomorrow is a huge day, and then Friday might be in Court all day ...

    I think I felt impending teeth this morning ...


    Anyone else??

    DS1 had the courtesy to not get any teeth until after weaning ... this might prove interesting ...

    My DS didn't get any teeth until about 10.5 months, and DD1 started to get hers at about 6ish months of age. One of DS's baby buddies was born with a tooth!

    Ds2 got his first tooth at 4 months. By 12 months I think he had 10 or 12 teeth

    Hi everyone

    Peanutter my older girls got teeth around the 5-6 month mark (cant remember exactly ) but I found it wasnt too bad I had stopped bf DD1 around that time anyway and with DD2 I found the bottom ones weren't a, when she had matching teeth top and bottom we had one biting incident I yelped and pulled her off which shocked her and she never did it again and she was bf until almost 11months. I find the clamping down with gums then pulling just as painful


    Fuzzy hope your exam went well

    Buffy ick to middle of the night poosplosions! Your trip sounds great, very busy! Its easier to do those kindof things before bubs is on the move though.

    Nic sorry your having a rough patch

    Sloane glad K is doing so well

    H has slept through the last 11 nights going down about 9.30 up around 6. Ive probably just jinxed ud now in saying that Funny as my girls have slept through from 8,9 and 10 weeks respectively lol. Skye my DH is now asking when she can sleep in her own room, I said I cant hear her so far away and he siad thats what the baby monitor is for. I can't work out his reasoning as he says having her in the room is too noisy for him so I don't see how having a baby monitor making the same noise is going to help!

    Last night Helena was a bit whingey and squirmy and hadnt done a poo for two days, I thought she had wind so took the nappy off and gave her a tummy massage then DH gave her a bath, well I timed it very well with the massage as he had just finished washing her and was letting her float when she did a massive number two in the bath lol. DD1 and 2 got fresh bath water after that

    Have found Helena is pulling on and off and whinging a lot when bf before bed at night. I think she has been getting overtired so have been putting her down to sleep when she starts instead of trying to persist with feeding and so far it seems to have improved things. I think she might be going through a growth spurt as she is sleeping a lot as in 3hrs straight this morning then another 1.5 this arvo and the same over the weekend.

    Sara, what fabulous sleepers you have! Glad H is taking after her big sisters. It must be hard deciding whether to move her - I agree about the monitor though, we've turned ours off but we're in an apartment so hear everything - and W never fails to let us know, loudly, when she needs us! Also have the same issue about over-tiredness and breastfeeding, I'll copy your trick. Hope H's tummy is a bit better.

    Cruddy day with all my hard-earned settling techniques out the window, but W finally crashed out at 8:00 so hoping she has a good few hours. Definitely not herself, a bit snotty and very windy so very little sleep and lots of crying with a few angelic smiles in between. Fingers crossed for a better day tomorrow.

    Finally typed up my birth story if anyone has a spare day or two to read it.
