Hi girls, my little pudding is sitting here next to me starting to stir so this will be short..Kate i hope the hospital came up with some answers for you?? Did you ever put what went wrong in print here?? I am on so rarely these days I would have missed it for sure...definatley not a bad mummy..number 3's are so unexpected and come at the worst times..I never carry enough clothes these days so on occasions have had to mop up and make do..never quite as big a disaster as you have had though.
Did you get the imms done in the end..I broke Tillys up into 2lots so it was'nt as much strain on her kidney ( it would have been okay I think) I just felt better that way!!
Sarah I hope all is welll at your end...are you super busy (ier)now that your little miss is a bit older and sleeping less.. man i have so little time for anythign other than the kids at the moment.. I am looking forward to next year when i have 2 at school..hopefully I wuill be able to spend more time with the little ones and do some more play type things..at the moemnt they get dragged to kinder/school , shops, kindy/school pick-ups, swimming lessons, playdates and then when we are at home they get to sleep so there is barely anytime for play.
Hi Rach...(((((waves )))))))))
Tilly is doing great..soon to go for our 4mnonth check up but she will be over 6kgs, she is getting chubby and long, just put a bonds size 0 suit on her and it fits nicely..I can't remeber if I told you her kidney nuclear medicine test showed she had no function.. which is better than having a tiny bit..cause that can casue high blood pressure..she was a real trooper cause thye had loads of trouble geting the canula in ( even tried her ankles???) after attempt number 6 thy got it in her arm..I was so close to taking her home and telling them to shove there test.. I am still BF and comping but not for much longer, she is starting to get annoyed with me (just too slow and not enopugh and is starting to refuse me) except at night in bed, then she likes it..she has taken to waking up between 2am-4am for a feed.but goes straight back to sleep and usually sleeps to around 7am-8am,unfortunaly for me DD nearly 2 is waking about 5am so I don't get back to sleep very often these days..and I am ssoooooo tired...whinge whinge..
anyway enough about us.. Hi to everyone else sorry about my long absences..I have too much on my plate and have been taking some time for me in the evenings, ebay and long baths when the kids are in bed..
Glad Tilly is doing well she is such a little trooper. Know how you feel about the breast feeding and comping we were doing it here as well but at about 8 weeks Nath started refusing the breast all together and up until last week I was expressing his day time feeds but have just stopped as it was taking me about 2hrs to express enough for just 1 feed instead of 3 like I had been previously so Nath is now on formula He has also started on solids as he has more than doubled his birth weight - he now weighs 9kgs so
Hope everyone and their bubba's are doing well, I am off to enjoy some sunshine with the cheeky monkey
sorry I have been MIA, DH brought me a Cricut Expression machine for my scrapbooking, and I have gone abit over board with buying cartridges from US. They are so cheap compaired to buying them here from $66-125 each. I got 5 for less then $125. I know I must stop. I have also being trying to get DS 1 birthday invitation done with it too, but I keep changing mind on how I will do it. I really wouldn't like other mum's to think the same as I did when DS1 was invited to a party either on in year, and the little kid sent Homer Simpson with a Beer in hand out to a 5yrold party.
My pop died of a heartattack last sunday so I had to fly up to the funeral. Oh what fun that was(not). I wont go into it, but alot of waiting around in airport then driving 3-4hrs down to Ulladula. Hey fun times. I am so glad to be home.
Took all kids today an hr drive to office works to get new laser colour printer. The one we have is huge, and I wanted to make get a little one(compact) so now DH has to hook it up when he gets from the farm. I went and brought it so only fair he hooks it up.
Anyway some personal...
Kate: LM has always since birth poo-splosion. It's very rare if she doesn't. Non of my others were like her almost every time. I only take one change of clothes with us. And if I run out will just buy another suit depending on how long out I will be but if not long then I will change her nappy and leave her in bad clothes until I get home then change.
I didn't get to read your hospital storie either, yet I know when I had a bad experience with DS1 I made complaint after his birth they only told me they would talk to the midwife in question and didn't hear any more back. Not good enough but not alot else I could do. I hope you go better answers.
Rach: My LM goes for her 4m old needs on Wednesday and I am not looking forward to it. Gee, he is early starting on solids. Me I am holding off as long as possible for 2 reasons. 1 'cos she is my last and I want the baby as long as possible and 2 'cos I don't have much time to maker her own food up. DS2 (no3child) just had what we had only preed up. So I might do the same with her. We are having pumpkin soup tonight, so I might give her a try she is watching us eat, and I know that is a sign.
Pam: Yeah am going fine, kids all still alive so I haven't had much time to self. Normal when I am on Ebay I have LM on lap. She still has 3-4 naps a day. Most naps with last 2-3hrs. And her late afternoon nap (after3pm) is normal only an hour. But getting plenty done.
We are the oppiste here. My day is organised around the children and their actvities. Monday DS1 home from kindy so we do my stuff like shopping etc on that day, or walking to town. We have play group on Tuesday the home for a day nap for both. Wednesday DS1 is home again so my stuff or walking or playing out in back yard etc. Thursday we have PlayGym then home for a nap, and Friday is community house. So I do lots of things with the littlies when the 2 older children are at school. I am some time too buggered to get much else done.
Well I better get going esp while LM is alseep. Oh LM is also trying to roll, she get on her side and gets stuck. Other wise she can turn her self around in a circle on the mat.
I am also having issue's logging in to BB. Not impressed, I've had to reset password 4 times in last week.
Rach: Yeah have heaps to keep me busy.
Yeah LM is doing that, she didn't really like pumpkin soup, but I will slowly introduce her to food over the next 2 months as well as BF her.
Hi all...well hi to the small few that still pop in here!!
All is well here on the home front! We are having needles this friday and had our 4 month check up today. Amaya is chugging along nicely, breast feeding is a dream and probably seems like it more so cos I exclusively expressed to feed DS for the first 9months due to his cleft lip!!!
I ended up getting a Wrap Me Up which is just a cotton interlock sleeping bag. So fits really snug and they are able to have their arms up abouve their head and hands are covered. So she sleeps way better not being swaddled. In bed by 8.30 and sleeping till around 2-4am having a feed and back to sleep till 8am. So I feel nice and refreshed to tackle the days with my two year old as well!!
Me...I am just busy doing day to day things and not getting much time on the computer. I really prefer the old bb layout and I have logging in issues to so I just give up!!
I'm not doing the solids just yet. I waited to 6 months with DS so I will do the same with Amaya. Everyone has their own way of doing stuff, you just have to be extremely careful of allergies when you start them this young and watch they are still getting the right amount of bmilk or formula or their growth will be affected along the track.
