Carmey - OMG, that would be tough going back to 2 hourly feeds! I'd put my money on the 8 week growth spurt. I've got my for you that this will pass after a couple of days.
Sesame - You poor things I had a cold when I went into labour with Craig and gave it to him when he was born. My first week after a c-section was spent trying not to cough because it hurt my stitches. Craig is still known as 'Snorky' because of the snuffly noises he made. The snot sucker thingy (aspirator?) and saline drops is the thing for clearing their little noses. Hope you both feel better soon and good luck with the immunisations on Friday. Trust me, it's worse for the Mum than it is for the Bub.
BS - My DH used to freak out and flip Craig over everytime he was on his tummy. For ages Craig would roll over then cry to be flipped back. I asked the Community Nurse and she said to stop turning him because once they can roll, their necks are strong enough to turn their heads and they won't suffocate. Not sure if you can leave them on their tummies when they have reflux and I can't remember how old Craig was when he was doing this. Sounds like the Osteopath did the trick for Eva, they sure fixed Craig's neck (he could only turn his head to one side).
Alison - It's 3kg to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight, I actually need to lose more like 6-7, maybe 10 to get back to a healthy BMI. Before Craig was born I had two miscarriages and put on more than 5kg with each one. After having Craig I managed to lose all my baby weight, plus another 5kg before falling pregnant with Ryan. The older I get the harder it seems to be to lose weight, so I guess I want to get on top of it as soon as I can. There could be another baby in the near future for us so I want to be as fit and healthy as I can be before falling pregnant again. How cute that your DH was talking to Amelia about a brother or sister I'm going to talk to my GP tomorrow about contraception and any risks with another pregnancy.
AFM - Managed to do 3 days of Wii Fit. I can get 30 minutes in while the boys are both having an afternoon nap. We were away for so long I missed Ryan's immunisations and now I'm struggling to get an appointment for him. Hopefully we can get him in this week. Craig's first immunisation was horrible, he cried out in pain from the needle and I cried because I felt like it was me hurting him. I'm not looking forward to Ryan's needles Tomorrow is my 6 week checkup with my GP (3 weeks late!) and I expect a Pap Smear. I want to ask her about contraception and planning another baby before I'm 40 (can't believe I just wrote that, eeeek!).
Hope everyone is getting sleep and lots of smiles and cuddles from their little ones.
