yay on the wii fit SHell! Gosh public tanties are hard. We are luck as not to have ahd a huge public tanty. But plenty at home. (like twice today already)
Nai - How unfair really! You just as much deserve time out as your hubby.
OP- What sort of sleeping bag do you have? I have a few, but hey are not till she is 6 months old. I think I need to get one for now though.
reat on the weight loss kaz. I am still plugging away at the gym, but so far it doesn't seem to have made a difference.
Tarkine - I used to do that. Stay awake anticipating. Not so much with this bub as I did with J though.
So the kids are playing tag team today. one will start up, I go settle them, then the other starts upo/ On top of that, E was awake on and off since 1am, so a tired mmmy today. Oh well - Thats life hey

all i am gonna say is this
total number of feeds overnite wed nite from 10pm - 6am= 6
total number of feeds last nite from 10pm -6am= 4
amount of time Levi has been asleep today= 45 mins and 10 mins x4
amount of sleep i have had since monday nite = 12 hours total!!!!
beware of the 12/13 week changes girls
just a warning
ITS A PHASE!!!!
Oh god Det, don't tell me that we're just starting to make progress here with settling easier!
My white noise CD has actually been quite good, now when I see tired signs I wrap her, pop dummy in, put CD on, put her in the laundry where irs dark and she has been settling quite easily, still can't go into 2nd sleep cycle tho without alot resettling.
Meg- ikwym, I always find each day if its not one child giving me grief its the other!
Kaz- A couple kilos already is great! BFing will help too hopefully with dropping the kg.
AJP- slow down! That doesn't sound good, how are your iron levels?
Ash was bit off this arvo had a bit of a temp and just spent the arvo lying down, once panadol kicked in she was back to her crazy self.
Sorry, haven't posted for a bit. DD hasn't been sleeping very well during the day even in the HAB for the last few days!! And she's been up at night at least 3 times. But last night she only woke once!! Slept from 8.30 - 2.45 and then until 6.30!! So now I'm feeling human again I thought I'd come in here and post!!
I hope everyone is doing well!! OMG det I am not looking forward to 12 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Went to the Dr the other day to talk about vaccinations and came away without having any! I don't want her to have them all and esp not all at once so the Dr is looking into which one's she can get seperately for me.
DD's christening is in 2 weeks!! Family is coming up from NSW which will be good! We have already picked 2 godparents and I just found out one of them isn't baptized and apparently they have to be. Great. So I don't know what to do about that, lie? Good start hey, lol. But I really want her to be godparent and I don't care she's not baptized, as far as I'm concerned it's just some stupid church rule, not anything from the bible!! Hmm.......
Well, that's all for me! Oh, and we have a new car!!!!! Finally. We only had a 2-door one, not fun with a baby! So we feel pretty flash now, haha.
I know with the Catholic Church, only 1 needs to be baptized.
Det - oh dear. Hope you get some rest over the weekend.
Shell - glad you are getting dome results with the CD.
AJP - hope you too get some rest.
DS is staying onernight at mil. woo hoo, then we will pick him up and do a mothers day arvo tea. J has been having terrible nightmares the last few nights. He actually isn't awake, but is screaming in his sleep. Poor little man! Anyway a night at MIL just might be enough to jolt him out of the routine of waking. It ususally does. Of course he then woke E up (although he obviously didn't mean it!) So she was up at 2:30 and 6. Then I put her in with me till 9, and DH got up with J at 8, and left for MIL. DH goes back to work on Monday after having the last month off. Boo Hoo! There goes my extra pair of hands (that is when he is not off on "boys weekends" etc)
I have already started to sell off my baby stuff on ebay. I know she is my last, so I have started selling bundles of clothes that she has grown out of. Also boys clothes that she won't wear.
With Ash they also had in the specifications that they need to be baptised and one person who is like a regular church goer, well they were baptised but none hadn't been to church service for years but they don't check up. We chose the ppl for a reason so that was most important in our eyes.
Meg- Ash has nightmares too, not fun getting up to 2 kids. I haven't been able to bring myself to sell baby stuff yet tho I know its our last, hoping my friend who has had 3 m/c gets pregnant and has a girl so I can give her lots stuff.
Anyone elses bubs react to needles? I've just found Em quite unsettled since, she has her happy times but then screamy times and harder to settle at night, waking up more, could just be coincidence tho.
Heaven- ikwym, I was thinking about how much stuff was going in at once, there like 8 different things she had, think the rotavirus might have upset her tummy or something cause she has been pooing alot more and seems unsettled in tummy.
Shell - I was told the rotavirus could upset the tummy a bit. Miss J didn't have any reaction but I know others have had a slight reaction with updet tummy and runnier (if possible) poos.
Det - eeek! I had better read the next lot of wonder weeks to prepare for that 12 week stage as we are nearly there.
Med - woohoo on having J stay with MIL. Hope it helps!
Heaven - woohoo for you too on the new car - what sort did you get?
Miss J has been getting better with her day sleeps but worse with nights - go figure! Her neck is so strong now and she even sat in the Bumbo seat when I put her in there for a minute. I think in a few weeks she will be ready to sit in it as she loves being able to watch DD1 and wants to see everything that she is doing. She just watches her and laughs - it's so cute.
nai i hope Juliettes night capers improve soon!! yay on the bumbo!!!
hows geneiveve going??
sara oohhh a new car what ya get???
shell has ems tummy settled??? millie seemed fine too after vax
meg i hope you get a sleep in tomorrow with j been away!! boo to DH going back to work!
shell i dont have my iron retested for another 6 weeks or so just so tired again doing too much but that comes with the territory of having two kids!! as you'd know more activities etc..
millie is great!! shes such a lovely little bubba!! quiet content, only really cries after her bath when i give her tummytime and roll her onto her back to dress her youd think she' rather not be on her tummy strange child!
she really should go into her cot now as the bassinette is too small but im stalling...
we get weighed on thurday, swimming for the first time tuesday (if i go buy some new bathers in time!!!)
hey girls
happy mothers day to you all tommorow!
enjoy being spoilt - mwah
I GOT SOME SLEEP LAST NITE!!!!!
i slept more last nite than i had all week combined lol
what a man- the ironic thing is that when he is awake- he is not whingy just happy to be awake and taking everything in- at least he wasnt screaming lol
levi loves his bumboo seat- highly recommend this product- you can get them with the tray for free at toys r us or there are plenty of them on ebay as well
he sits up on the table when we eat meals - lol looks so cute eating his fist whilst we eat our dinner- i am sure he would have a go a food if we gave him a chance, but just gonna hold off a bit longer, but man its tempting lol esp seens he is feeding soo much at the moment
Emilia is still awake. Has been since 2:30pm. Now SCREAMING> I need 5 mins to myself. So she is just gonna have to scream in her room, as I HAVE HAD ENOUGH. DH is out for the evening, and I have had her whinging all day.
Oh Meg, hope she settled doon after for you, its so awful when they get like that, I remember with Ash it'd get to the point where I'd put her in her room and go have a shower just to block it out and then feel bit more refreshed to go try again. Hope DH is doing everything today and you are in bed sleeping.
Det- I've seen those seats quite cute they are, how much do they cost? I felt they were expensive. Em loves watching us eat it, she seems so mesmorised by it, she'll just stare at me during meals.
AJP- Yeah she seems more settled, just vomiting alot more than usual thats why I'm putting it down to the rotavirus. Keep up yr iron tabs and lots big juicy steaks!
Happy Mothers Day to you all!!!
I'm on my own, Df been out drinking all weekend, I can't be too hard on him cause he's not coping so well bout his dad dying, just think alcohol is not the way to go about things. So another dissapointing mothers day for me.
