Babies Born ~ September 2014

[Eivie]

Good cry lol

[Kalina]

Tegam, beautiful words
Williever, I agree with everything Tegam has said. Do what's best for you.
As for David's cold, it's getting better. I've been using the Fess Little Noses aspirator to unblock him. I still can't believe he was a month old yesterday. Any other bubs starting to smile? Or goo & gaa?

[Eivie]

Yeah I'm sure Lachlan is smiling on purpose now, he's a month tomorrow. His sound is 'nnnnnn-Ger! It can be used as a happy sound or a sad sound. He likes it when I say it back to him lol.

Glad David is feeling better

[Kalina]

Haha David's sound is "oh-ahhhhh" usually during nakey times lol

[Lady-bug]

Hi girls, DD's cold is getting better, slowly. Yeah I think we are starting to get smiles too! So gorgeous. We had our first 'poo-narmie' yesterday, wow. Not fun. Hope everyone is doing well x

[Williever]

Great to hear about all these smiles. I'm getting a few and some pretty cute girlie sounds :-)

Lady-bug- I'm glad her cold is improving. Gotta love a poo-narmie!!!

Kalina- glad your little man is feeling better too!

Tegam- I have been thinking about your words all night. I know what I would have said pre- pregnancy (which is probably why I'm so surprised that I'm so upset) and thinking about that is beginning to help. I am still a little emotional about it so I will have to work through that.
I promised myself that I would not let this take over and for the sake of my sanity and my boys enjoyment of everyday things I will stick by that promise. I just need to put the emotional me aside...... That will take a few days.

For now, while DH is on leave I will give her what I can. After that she will be fully formula fed and she will survive and continue to thrive. Just like her brother!

BUT thank you for those thought/ reality provoking words Tegam!!!! I'll never forget them!

See still emosh!!!!

[Eivie]

I'm so glad you found that clarity Williever, Tegam's advice was so perfect! It had the same effect on me but my answer was the other one. You sound at peace with your decision and mummy at peace is way more important to your baby than anything else.

Lol at poo-narmie! I've never heard that before, much better than poo-splosion which btw we had on Thursday

[Tegam]

We had our first poo-narmie with our first car ride. We has always called it the prime poop'n position

I'm glad my advice was ok. What's the point doing this mothering so many times if I can't learn something along the way

[Lady-bug]

Yep it was in the car Tegam!!

[Cattie]

Williever I'm glad you have made a decision and sound at peace with it. You gave bf a really good chance, and all the breastmilk you've given is sure to have benefited her I really understand it's different with a toddler, you need to find a balance. And ff babies turn out just fine as you know with your ds!

I think we're just missing lady-bug on fb?

I'm just so tired! I know it's expected for a mother of a newborn but still...

[Raupe]

In hospital. Appendicitis. Feel like poo. Just lucky bubby is allowed to stay with me. Surgery tomorrow. At least some time to pump some milk for her...

[Eivie]

Oh crap Raupe! Hope the surgery goes well and you recover quickly. So glad you can have bub with you too. Best of luck tomorrow

[Cattie]

Oh no Raupe What bad timing! Hope things go smoothly tomorrow and you're back home with your bubba soon.

[Raupe]

Thanks ladies. Tried to pump. They only have a ****ty hand pump. Took me 1 hour to express 70ml. Sigh... ah well

[Williever]

Sorry Raupe. That is rubbish!

[kellbell]

Oh no . Thinking of you today x

[Tegam]

Raupe good luck today. So sorry you are unwell. Are you at a hospital with a maternity unit? They should have a better punp

[Williever]

Thinking of you Raupe.
