I think its 3 doses isn't it? Some of the vaccine schedules are different per state, I know tassie is different than Queensland.

Hey all! Have a few spare mins to reply while H is asleep and Bella is eating and watching playschool!
Everything going along ok here! Had my and H's 6 week check up today and he is perfect ( ofcourse!!) he does have reflux which I suspected as bella had it too, so getting sone losec suspension made up by the chemist in Melbourne and sent down., get it on Saturday. He only had a mild case so we can wait.
I have a gyno appoint tomorrow to check how my tear has healed!
H is only waking once a night now for a feed so getting a bit more sleep, well if Bella sleeps through we do lol!
Taking H to see a Bowen therapist soon to get his neck worked on as he tends to turn one way and has a flat spot, same as Bella did so not to worried about it this time!
Hope ur all well

Hugs Lisa. Do whatever you think is right.
Well all these reflux babies on losec and our dr gave us... Bugger all
She said she doesn't believe it helps so won't prescribe it. I'm a bit p.o'd

Not even Zantac Jak? Gaww thats a bit rough!!! I'm pretty sure its helping here, when I give it to her, I hear her tummy gurgle and she starts frothing at the mouth.. LOL.. I guess its the acid being neutralised that makes her froth.
Hi Kate!!! Hope your tear is ok. I'm not sure who I'm going to go see to get mine checked out. Definitely not my GP cos he is a tosser.

louise/mel/sarah: thanks for the advicei keep freaking myself out that the tiny spotting was implantation and now im freaked out im pregnant even though its just not possible that I am unless I ovulated on my period or something equally unlikely LOL so i just needed to hear whacked out cycles is normal.
lisa: have they gotten to the bottom of why he can't drink? poor little mite. If you are worried don't feel embarassed by taking him to the hospital, better to do that and be told he is ok than worry about him for days.
jaki: so W has reflux too??? all these poor little bubbies. I agree with Kylz can you go see another dr that will actually try and help.
kate: H sounds like he is doing awesome!!! Hope your tear is all good, ouchies!!
ferrals: how was ella today??? is she getting better now that she has the stuff to help with her reflux??
tonight we are sleeping at lolo and lolas house as my mum is flying back to the philippines tomorrow for a month and she wanted Chase to come wsee her offim so sad, im scarily dependant on my mother as in, she probably sees chase more than DH does because she is over for hours every couple of days and I'm pretty sure i eat at her place at least twice a week too. I'll have to cook for myself!!! the humanity!! lol

Sarah - of course u can go back to bf after formula. I put Luke on formula for 2 weeks as I has nipple thrush and they were severly cracked and bleeding and got him back on the boob after they had healed. I had a lot of people tell me that I'll never get him back on put he did. The only thing is I can't remember how I kept my supply up as it was that long ago
Lisa- so glad they are taking u serious and I hope ur lil man starts feeding real soon

Hi ladies.
Lisa-glad the hospital is taking it serious but i hope it's nothing major and they sort it out for you.
Jaki-Ella only has mild reflux but the zantac definately makes a difference she dosent wake every time she is laid down if she regurgitates now it doesnt bother her my doctor said in a month to lower the dose and try to wean her off it.
If you are not happy with your doctor get another opinion.
Kitty-Ella is much better now i am pretty sure it was from the rota virus syrup she had the runs and was just not well for a few days.
I miss my mum to when she goes away and she usually goes to america every 2nd year.
AFM-Ella had a good day so i think she is back to normal now she slept from 5:30 until 11:30 6hrs and then woke for a bottle at 3:30am and went back to sleep.
We have the reflux pretty much sorted out except the thickened formula it keeps getting blocked in the teat and i have tried the fast flow and she gets real windy from it so today i am not going to thicken her formula and see how much she keeps down.
Does anyone else thicken their bubs formula or use AR formulas?
Registered User
Sarah you'll be fine hun, just give her the boobie then a formula top up. Hugs.
Lisa so glad your getting some help and being taken seriously!
Ferrals I think it's quite common to thicken formula or ebm with relax babies. The dr told me to but I don't want to get back in the habit of expressing unless I really have to.
We are off to see a movie today! The Adam sandler/ Jen aniston one. There is a little mining town 40 klms from here that does morning tea and mum and Bub movies in their cultural centre

Hey Iona! Good to see you back!
Ferrals: I got some thickener bout 2 and half weeks ago but only used it once. The lady suggested using it when Kolton wanted a feed every two hours.
Lisa: Hope everything gets better. At the very least the fact they are listening to you, is good news.
Jak: That movie is soooo funny, watched it a few weeks ago. Have fun, sounds like a good outing.
Has anyone thought about high chairs yet? I am so torn as I do not want one of those MASSIVE one's. I was thinking of the stoke one but they are so dear! Any suggestions guys?
Tams-we brought one ages ago it was $149 down to $80 so i couldnt pass that up it is one of those fangle dangle ones that the seat tilts back into a few different positions for bub at different ages.
Jaki- I forgot to ask how did wyatt go with his needles?
Ella is so full of wind poor bubby i can hear her groaning and farting in her sleep.

Lmp - we have the ikea high chair - it's awesome. Used it for two bubs now and in 4.5 months time Eden will have to give it up for Sahti lol
Registered User
Mum has an ikea one ay her place that she used with MJ, it's really good. We have a wooden one that I got on eBay, but originally from babyco and thats really good too - and it matches our chairs for the table lol.
When we used friends big padded things I found that she got lost in the padding or didn't sit well in it - the simpler the better we found.
I think I bought it at about 5 months as we didn't start solids til 6 months...

Thanks ladies. I don't mind the Ikea ones but wish it was wooden. : ( I agree the simpler the better but still unsure. I wanted to stick with the bumbo seat and tray when I start solids at 4 months but unsure at this point.
The thing i was also thinking about was those seats that stick under the table so there is no tray just the seat but unsure.
This is going to sound silly but less baby stuff I can accumulate the better. The big useless ones I mean. As my tubes are out... no other ones planned! This one took 3 years.... : )
Ordered my dresser for Koltons room 4 weeks before he was born was told by bubs and grubs that it would take a week and still waiting. The twelve week time line is now up on Friday and I am so excited. Either I get it or
get my money back, either way have had way too much crap sitting in his closet and now I can officially put it away! Yaaaa.

Lmp- I used the bumbo for during the day when I started with kelti and Eden (both were 6 months though cos we do bls here) but they have their dinner in the high chair so they are up at the table with us

tams: i have a fandangle high chair, its big and nastywith reclining seat. My bff uses the one from Ikea i think hers is wooden and she loves it cos its easy to clean. I can't wait to put Chase in his bumbo, at the moment i sit him in his high chair with it on recline when I eat so he can see me. bubs n grubs are whores...lol
sarah: shouldnt be a problem to go back to BFing, just keep up with xpressing to keep your supply going or like jaki said give boobie first then top up with formula after. Do you think its the supply of milk?? Maybe the domperidone would be worth a try if its the milk supply.
aarrrgh trying to reply to everyone and whining baby. im just glad he's not a huge screamer but the grunting can really niggle away at you!!! off to deal with this bbl
