Im back in the land of the living…..well sort of!!!
Ali – Abbey is still having 3 or 4 sleeps a day….all depends on how she goes with her midday sleep. If she can stay down for a couple of hours then she only needs one more sleep at about 4 or 4:30 to get her through but if she only has a nap at lunchtime then she’ll go down for 2 more sleeps….really wish she’d have the 3 all the time cause 4 really stuffs up the night time routine but sometimes she just wont sleep all that long during the day…..really frustrating!!!
Telly – You pervert you!!! I forget that I’m 30 now and still have a perv on the young ones sometime and day dream about my life back when I was 20…..no responsibility, just party party party….those were the days!!!
Snowy – I’m having trouble with stains all the time on Abbey’s clothes….she just had some pea, carrots and corn the other night and got some on her white top and for the life of me I cant get the stains out….does anyone know a good way to get them out?? I’ll have to strip her off naked she makes such a mess sometimes!
Madame – Sorry to hear about Harper….hope she gets better really soon. Abbey has been clingy since about Sunday and it’s driving me bonkers too…only happy on the hip…if she’s left on the floor or in her bumbo she cracks it…..LOVE having SATC on in the middle of the night….revives me a little bit if I’m up!!!
Heavenly – Happy Anniversary to you and Jose!! Hangovers are terrible now….I’ve only had a couple since I’ve had Abbey and it’s a nightmare!! So not worth it now! Still haven’t seen the second Twighlight movie yet…better get cracking on that….
Natty – Ha ha!!! I had been going to my MG for about a year and I couldn’t remember one of the girls names for the life of me and no one mentioned it any of the times I was there during conversation so one day I asked her if she was on FB and she said yes so I asked her her last name and went home to look her up but luckily she found me first and that’s how I ended up knowing it!!! I felt terrible….she’s a really nice girl and we are quite good friends now!!! He he he!
Hi to everyone else I have missed!!!!
AFM – Well, I feel like there is so much to talk about but I’ll try and keep it short!!!
Solids – Have been trying Abbey on a couple of things, mainly home cooked but some of the Rafferty pouches too…..sometimes she is into it and others she is not and she rubs her hands all over her face, through her eyes and all through her hair….drives me bonkers if it’s the middle of the day and we have to go somewhere cause I nearly have to giver her a full wash down with the mess she gets herself into!!!
Have had a few chocking incidents….mainly with the stuff that I have prepared so I don’t know if I have maybe done it too thick or something?? She also does funny things with her mouth, like she doesn’t really swallow straight away so when I put the next spoonful in I think the mouthful from before is still in there and then she gags cause there is too much in there?? Does that make sense???
I panic when she starts to go red….one day it was with the toast so I whipped her out of her highchair and threw her nearly upside down and slapped her on the back and then she threw up all her milk etc and it went everywhere….do I need to panic or will she get through it?? Snowy, you said you gave Mr I a banana, but I’d be too panicky to give her that in case she chokes…..or would she be alright??
I have been mixing up a little bit of that Laughing Cow cheese (that comes in a wheel with 8 little portions in it) in with Abbey’s veggies to give her a bit of protein etc….do you think this is OK?? She loves her yoghurt – plain or I might put a bit of fruit with it and opens her mouth no worries for that, but veggies are a different story…..
She’s sitting up pretty well on her own – no crawling or talking yet though. She now puts her arms out to you if I or whoever is going to take her put their arms out to her….I remember when JD first did that….it’s very cute!! She’s also a real little stickybeak!! If there’s anything that’s going on that she doesn’t want to miss she nearly breaks her neck trying to have a squiz!! Go go gadget neck!!! PMSL!
Has anyone turned their bubs around in their car seat yet? I saw the video that Mel linked and I can see the reasons why you would leave them rear facing, but just wondering what to do….
My Aunty that stayed with us last weekend has a really bad flu so is going back to the Dr tomorrow….god help me it had better not be swine flu and that’s why Abbey’s is my Siamese twin….
I cant see any white in her mouth so I don’t know if it would be teeth….would have to be wouldn’t you think??? She rips at her right ear and makes it bright red…..more so at early afternoon and night time. I don’t think she has an ear infection as she lets me touch it and prod around in it and last time if I did that she’d roar her head off so do you think it’s teeth?
Sleeping is still cra*py. Don’t think that will every change!!!
Sorry for the essay again – probably wont get to post again for another week at the rate I seem to be going…..but I’m always reading so help me out with my questions!!!! You’d think already doing this before with JD that I would know what to do!!! I swear I’m losing my mind sometimes…only lost my wallet last Mon from leaving it on the car roof when I was on my way to Playgroup. Cancelled my cards cause couldn’t find it after I retraced my drive about 100 times, then the police had it that afternoon. So then I went to Coles a couple of days later, used my cancelled card and couldn’t figure out why it wouldn’t work…..god I’m really losing it I think.
