Hi Ladies,
Sorry I haven't been in much, but I have been thinking of you all, wondering how everyone has been getting on.
Mrs C its lovely to see you here! I missed youGlad to hear your are going well.
BBB OMG Jacob wants to walk already LOL Its amazing how each little one is so unique.. !
Hi to everyone else.
I can't stop for long, I am still packing up the house, we're moving this weekend, yay I can finally get it over and done with
Bree has been doing a lot better the last few days. She was really unsettled their for a bit, and in the end I took her off the losec and she is doing heaps better which is awesome, I was really starting to worry about her at one point because she was really unsettled, down to 3 wet nappies a day for a few days and no poo, then she had no wet nappy for a day or two, and also went off feeding, she went down to about 500mls for the day during her worst moments, but she is back up to speed now, having between 5-7 wet nappies every day, had 1130mls yesterday, and lots of green poo's lol, oh and she thinks its hilarious when someone has to clean it up lol.
I feel so lucky that Bree goes off to sleep with no problems at all. I woke her last night because she only had 4 bottles by 9pm. She finished her bottle, burped, changed and back to bed in 30 minutes. I put her to bed awake, but she seems to know now that when it is dark and quiet, it is sleep time, and she drifts off to sleep without any noise.
I put her down in her basinet just a short while ago, I was talking to her and we were giggling away, I was actually taking some video of her. Then I said ok time for a sleep, and she went off to sleep while I had the camera on her
I am taking her down on Thursday to have her weighed, hopefully her few bad days hasn't affected her growth, I don't think it has, she is fitting 00 well, and she is also wearing 0 too, they're a bit big, but I didn't want to buy heaps of 00 so she has to put up with it a little longer until she grows lol.
Now that she seems to be feeling better, she hardly ever stops smiling. even when she has her moments where she is clearly struggling with wind, she screams with a smile on her face lol, has a scream and stops. I use stomach calm if she is not settling again, but usually only have to use it twice in one day, other than that she is not been having losec, infants friend, mylanta or anything else I may have tried and forgotten about. She is still having small vomits, but I think she is starting to settle on her own with that.
I bought a portable cot from target the other day. So when we visit family, she has her own space out of reach of the dogs. Its great, it has a change table which attaches, and you can adjust the height of the bed. Had nothing like that 10 years ago LOL
My mum is taking Bree this Friday night so we can get all the moving done on Saturday without having to worry about anything. She is really looking forward to it.
Anyway, better keep moving, still got lots to do.
Take care everyone, and if I am not back before the end of the week, I won't be too far away
. I have just started getting River to sleep in his cot, but mainly have to rock him to sleep them pop him down. He will sleep anywhere from 30 mins to an hour or so during the day, and four hours straight at night but is still waking up for feeds. It is from around 2am onwards that things get hairy and he wakes up almost hourly. We have had only one night since he was born where he has slept for another three hours after that. I am making small changes to our routine so as to accomodate a longer sleep time. Tonight I will try soothing him instead of feeding him, as I think the comfort feeding just makes things worst. Plus I get no sleep! So yes, am insanely jealous of you lucky ladies, but will try that bit harder now he is 3 months old.
