At my parents at the moment in between feeds- 4.49am! Had the community nurse around to the house yesterday. All is progressing well, Saoirse has gained just under 500gms in 2 wks, grown 4.5cm and is supposedly normal with feeds and the occaisional possetting.
Thoughts were she had a virus so off to the Drs today to ensure this litttle fairy is as good as gold.
Tonight my hubby took me out on a date, very romantic & grandma/pa looked after Saorise whilst we ducked into a fabulous little restaurant. Lovely! It was quite empowering and positively reinforcing for Mum and Dad to have her, feed her & settle her without us... They loved it. Hopefully today brings blue skies, sunshine & a fabulous long walk along the beach.....
mum2be.. does she have a dummy? its tricky as nate has no dummy and i put him to bed and he cries for 3-4 min and then sleeps for 4 hours. just remember what ever habbit you start now... wont be easy later on if you want to change it..
If you are ok with it I used to put baby down and go have a shower.. they dont die from crying and they learn HABBIT so so so quickly.. Whatever work for you might not work for everyone.. So good luck!!
Didi - Shani sleeps through too, I feel very lucky. I have been finding that she has not slept well during the day though in the bassinet so today I have put her in the cot and she has been sleeping for about 2 hours now so far
Mrs P - I hope you are feeling better soon x
Sorry I haven't been on much, life with an almost 2yo and a 2month old is pretty hectic. I hope you are all getting some sleep and enjoying your bubs as they seem to be growing so quickly x
Didi and Kylie - is there any particular routine you are following to get your bubs to sleep through?
Liana does up to 6 hours which is awesome but I would love her to do more of course hee hee.
I've just had a bout of gastro which was not fun. Last night I sacrificed some frozen EBM and DH did the night feed for me, I still woke up but at least I didn't have to get out of bed. Feeling better today though. Just got my pathology results through and apparently this time I don't have a UTI? Which is weird as I get stinging when I wee - so what the hell is it?! I am wondering if the catheter somehow did some physical damage or something.. not sure. Very frustrating!
