Hi everyone
Hi em, hi owens Hi delph my god I am tired reading your posts Delph you are superwoman.

Hi DrTal - my DD used to play that came with me too it was a terrible time and very frustrating, i did end up finding out that if you have the attachment correct its impossible for them to bite you so I made sure I concentrated on attaching properly and made sure if she had finished drinking that I took her off straight away if she was finished and looked like she wanted to just suck. Not saying your attachment is wrong please dont take that the wrong way its just a tip that worked for me so thought I would pass it on.

Em - I could only feed my DS up until 4.5 months (I had fed my DD for 13months beforehand) I was shattered, beforehand though he started not sleeping very well, screaming everytime I put him on the boob and he dropped stacks of weight, nearly a kg. Now I am a big pro breastfeeding person but when I gave DS his first bottle of formula he sucked it dry in seconds he was starving, I WAS STARVING HIM because I was trying so hard to breastfeed him. He has thrived ever since I put him on formula he is huge now lol people are always calling him chubby etc. I hope it all works out for your soon.

AFU - The year seems to be flying by, my baby is dissapearing before my eyes before we know it we will be planning their 1st birthdays E is soooo chubby now lol he has really fat legs and gets stuck in the bumbo lol. Speaking of bumbo I had him sitting in it on the floor in the bathroom and he tipped himself out of it the little bugger. Thank god it wasnt on the bathroom bench.
He is an eating machine, doesnt care if its pureed or chunk he will eat anything. My DD used to gag on lumps at his age but not E he eats it all.
Are you girls still wrapping your little ones, my dilema is that e will go to sleep in a sleeping bag but if he wakes for a feed during the night or early morning he wont settle again in it so I have to wrap him, so I have been wrapping him instead of putting him in the sleeping bag and then using one of those safe t sleep wraps on his mattress so that he cant roll over onto his tummy. Well I have given birth to houdini the second because he gets out of everything. This is how I HAVE to wrap him, I lay him on a cot sheet, then I take one side of the wrap and go over his arm on the same side then under his back then I repeat it on the other side so his arms are locked down (hope that makes sense) then I put him onto a muslin wrap and wrap him again just the normal way then I put him into his bed and velcro him into the safe t sleep wrap. well the other morning I heard him playing and moving around in the cot soI went in to see him and he had gotten himself completely out of it all and was playing but get this both wraps we still inside the safe t sleep wrap neat and tidy like there was still a baby in there no joke he is houdini. Grrrr i just dont know what to do, I have even wrapped him then put him wrapped into a woombie and he can still get out of it all.

wow thats long I better go to bed, hope you are all going great.
