OP- Did the sleep school help? Its nice to be missed isn't it.
Kaz- I've been thinkning of you. Are you getting time for yourself to do something nice where you don't have to think about everything that is going on?
Olive- Hope you recover quick and yay on school. Ours was picked easy for us. Was funny at the open day, they're talking bout all the enviro stuff they do and all this other stuff and Df being a maths teacher kept asking bout numeracy and their results there and all that. Plus he was testing all the grade 6 kids there on times tables. At least we've got forms in now and should get confirmation letter soon.
Nai- saw pics on FB very cute. I'm impressed she sat there, Emily fights me just to brush her hair, not that theres much of it. I'm terrified of when we start getting nits here, I keep telling Ash she better wear her hair tied back for kinder but even thats not gaurentee.
Meg- is she waking upset or like ready to play? Tiring. Could she be cold or anyting like that? All the gastro settled.
Not long for sydney, 2 weeks to go, will be so good for me to get away.
OMG E was up for hours agIn last night. Not upset. Just lying there shouting "muuuuuuuum I'm awake!" she woke J twice.
It is 8:45 and she is still asleep now.
Another sleepless night, and another morning that she is still asleep. Last night her pony was teaching Dorothy the Dinosaur how to fly.
She is not upset al all, just awake and noisy!
Nai- a friend told me last yeR there was a line up to get into Aldi to buy ski stuff.
Lilima - yeah there normally is so get there early!
With the sleeping (or lack of) can she have a cd player or something in her room that she can put on if she wakes up at night - you can say if you wake up and it is still dark, you need to go back to sleep but you can put your music on to help you. My girls have an ipod with their music on it that they put on to go to sleep and they know how to work it themselves so they can put it on if they wake up.
Lilima did you have any success with the gro clock???
With DD we tell her she has to stay in bed and stay quiet until the sun comes up... Otherwise we don't give her a reward in the morning. Well she used to get a reward, now she just happily does it. Well - mostly happily
Saw the Aldi catalogue and thought of you guys
Thanks for asking about us ladies - sleep school was ok. I thought it had helped - but the last two nights have been really bad again
Ah well... I think we just have to ride it out. At least he had a little sleep in this morning which was good.
I've just booked DS's first birthday - scary! It's in a month!!! Time flies...!
This thing is, she is happy to stay in her bed, and is cheerful in the night, she is just AWAKE! So yes she will stay there till the sun comes up on the clock, but it doesnt stop her singing and chattering!
I am being followed by the "Mummy where are you?" monster - she says it even when I am in the same room. I get no peace. She even has to sit on my knee to eat breakfast.
lol nai!! at least you get a break this weekend!
Det its freezing isnt it!
After 5 years of continuous pregnancy and breastfeeding im whitening my teeth again!
had one tooth internally bleached last week and im doing the whitening trays this week...
Well - I went back to work yesterday. Again. Only this time no baby in belly. To the best of my knowledge
Miss I told DH today that she wants a baby sister No idea where she got that from!!!! I'm starting to get a bit clucky....
Lilima - how's E?? That's so bizarre about her being happy just chatting and singing! Does she seem tired, or is she getting enough sleep even with these wake ups?
We've had two terrible nights here, with both kids. They take it in turns to wake up and scream out at me... Last night several times each hour... One louder and clearer but the other is still definitely saying "Mammaaaaaa!"
DH reckons it's a bit of separation anxiety on Miss I's part... After we both left her for the day, kinda makes sense. DS I think was too cold then too hot... We'll see how we go tonight.
Apart from that, the nanny went well, both kids were tired so DS had a lot of cuddles and DD watched a lot of Dora... But I said to the nanny when she's tired and grumpy you just gotta pick your battles. They'll settle in.
How are we all going with TT?? We seem to have regressed... Accidents a plenty recently. Possibly linked with me going back to work? Who knows. It's so frustrating - she has been in this same state for almost six months now. She's pretty good at home with no nappy on, but put undies and pants on and she just forgets and thinks she is wearing a nappy and just wees.
She doesn't seem to care either? My niece, she reached a point where she started getting embarrassed by her accidents. DD just doesn't care.
Do I just keep going on this track? So sick of cleaning the carpet and washing wet clothes every day. Grr!
No TT here - Miss J is just not ready yet. She wants to wear undies but won't use the potty so it's not going to happen in the near future. We will wait a bit longer I think - DD1 was 2.5 when she decided she was ready so I'm ok with that.
