Kirley - sorry to hear your DH is being a bit painful, its very hard when they are like that! Hope he improves soon! I have the Dunstan baby language dvd, bought it when DD was little, must get it out and watch it again. I already know that he definitely makes the wind and tired noises though. Glad to hear your visit to the bf clinic went well, it sounds like she gave you lots of good advice
littlemisshaveachat - I also read updates at 2am on my phone while I have a sleeping bub over my shoulder!
hc - i know what you mean about having a birth thats far from your birth plan... i never imagined that i'd have a caesar either! I definitely know what you mean about the cough... ouchies!
tan - sorry to hear about arch being a chucky bub, my DD was like that too, and I always worried about weight gains, but my worries were always unnecessary! she put on heaps of weight, so I'm sure Arch will be the same
Think I've figured out that Lewis isnt really nocturnal, its just his horrible wind keeping him unsettled. After 4 nights of having very unsettled periods between about midnight and 4 am, I am now considering getting an amby hammock, which are meant to be good for windy bubs. Last night he was so content sleeping on my shoulder in an upright position, but as soon as I put him down, he'd be awake crying again, poor little chicken. Luckily DD was in child care today, so I decided the housework could wait and I had a nice nap this afternoon.
Question - for those of you using any of the wind remedies, do you think they are making a difference? And also, do you only give it to them when they are really suffering or with every feed?
