Holly good to hear from you. Sounds like Carmelo is doing great! IVF is so expensive (I remember those fees). We used to have a low interest credit card that we used till the refund came back from medicare then we'd pay off the difference. Not sure if Medicare still puts in much money though, I know they were thinking of dropping it. June will be here in no time for you.
AFM - work is like I never left & daycare is going well so far. It's only been 2 days but already Alyssa was much more settled today than Wednesday. They had her in one of those motorised swings today when I got there. She looked like such a zombie all zoned out. I've stuck to half days this week & will go back to full days next week. I did have a few tears when I left her there yesterday, but I am very comfortable thus far with the centre we chose so that helps me relax. I'm finding major organisation is the key to getting out the door by 715am each day.
Not much else going on. Hope you are all doing well and ready for yet another weekend! xo
Hey everone, seems like ages since I have been on BB!!
Just a quick question, for mums still breastfeeding.... Lately Zarlen is really fidgety when he is feeding, keeps pulling off, trying to sit up, kicking his legs and seems to be getting bored... I dont know how many feeds per day he should be having but atm he is only having about 3-4 from when he wakes up in the morning until bedtime, is this normal for almost 8months?! Then overnight he has 1 feed close to 6am. He is also eating solids for breakfast lunch & dinner. Even when he has those breastfeeds feeds, he is only at the breast drinking for a few mins each side so Im not sure if he is getting enough. Does this sound like he may be weaning himself? Maybe Im just reading too much into it, I dunno. Also feels like I dont have as much milk as I used to. Im kinda sad about it cos I was hoping to feed for a bit longer, even though I need to stop in a few months if we want to start ttc again. I probs should put this post in the breastfeeding forum to get more response hey =)
In other news he is now army crawling, and has cut his first tooth, and it all happened on the very same day!
Well done Zarlen!! What a clever monkey with teeth & crawling on one day.
Hope everyone is well. We continue to watch the flood waters move closer to our corner of Qld. I don't think we will be affected directly, ie here at home, but certainly some family might. It is such an awful mess. Speak soon xo.
Rach Glad you got things sorted with Bubba Z. A bit of crawling and a toothie on the same day...no wonder he was a little distracted! All that learning!
Hi to all....sorry, I've just gotta go sort Maxy out! BBL!
