suz - Goodluck with the toilet training. Friends of mine started toilet training their daughter right before their son was born. But as soon as bub came home, she regressed and wanted to wear nappies again because thats what the baby wore. At least by now Craig has had time to get used to Ryan.
beany - It might be a wonder week. I find Amelia gets fussy feeding around those times. But I also find the heat upsets her too. The little green frog song goes:
Galoomp! went the little green frog one day,
Galoomp! went the little green frog.
Galoomp! went the little green frog one day,
Galoomp, galoomp, galoomp, galoomp, galoomp!
Now, we all know frogs go Lah-de-dah-dee-dah!
Lah-de-dah-dee-dah! Lah-de-dah-dee-dah!
We all know frogs go Lah-de-dah-dee-dah!
But this green frog went Galoomp!
The first verse is being used to advertise a pest control company here in Adelaide and I remembered it from when I was a kid. It'd get stuck in my head from hearing it on tv all the time.
BS - I got into the habit of deep baths when Amelia was really unsettled as it helped her to relax and just hadn't thought to go back to shallow baths now that she's happier. Amelia's reflux seems to be much milder than Eva's and I think she's growing out of it now. I'm just really strict on keeping her upright for half an hour after feeds. Its not so easy at night, but once she goes back to sleep I just stay up and watch tv. A trip to Paris sounds divine. Definitely will do you and DH the world of good. And what's a trip to Paris without shopping? Enjoy.
Alison - I feel for you girls with the heat in Perth. I think its coming our way this weekend. Keep cool.
Rose - I did get the BBH in the sale. I love the softness of the bamboo. I've got a couple itti bittis to try as well as I want something less bulky. I'd better be good until March then, my credit card's pretty battered as well. Liam may have been fussy from the growth spurt. Hopefully he'll settle back down again now.
AFM - Well it Amelia didn't swallow any bath water last night and we had a much better night with no major vomiting. I'll just have to fill the bath less. She keeps turning her head to look at me and actually tries to put her head down to lick at the water. This wasn't a problem, but now that she splashes around so much, she swallows quite a bit. The night wasn't perfect. She woke at 6am so I picked her up to feed her, but she went to sleep right away. When I put her down to wrap her, she woke and started crying and wouldn't settle until I gave her boob. She went back to sleep after only 5 minutes and woke again at 9. Now that I've worked it out I hope tonight will be better.
