LOL Heaven!! I am finding it harder to get on here and keep up. I am better at facebook.
We started giving toast yesterday with vegemite on it. I gave her the toast crusts one side at a time and she ate 3 of them!!! She has no teeth but she knew what to do and didnt choke at all.
She is starting to get really stroppy at me when I am too slow with the food or when it runs out. Cheeky little monkey!!
to everyone. Will try and come back later for personals. Its so hot today. I just feel meh!
Ali- lol, Grace is the same, turning into a demanding little thing!! Jols- I'm up to only wrapping DD from under the arms down now!! And she rolls onto her side or tummy and sleeps much better too. Nai- hope G is feeling better! shell- ooohh you reminded me, I'm going to get some cruskits for DD to try too.
Well DD is sleeping better in the day now, I rock her to sleep and then can actually put her down!!!!!!!!!! After only 5 mins too. So much better than carrying her around all day! And 3 times lately she's slept for 1.5hrs by herself!! She knows I'm putting her down but doesn't fight it anymore, just rolls over and gets comfy, lol. Nights are still ****house, lol, but improving a little! She is going straight back to sleep again with a feed instead of us having to spend ages getting her back to sleep and then her waking up as soon as we put her down. So I hope it continues to improve.
Shell - sounds like we have all been in the wars in this thread!! We managed to finally get a sample at 3pm yesterday so DP took it up to the Dr. Apparently we will only get a call if there is something wrong and we need to get her antibiotics.
I stopped wrapping Miss J a few weeks back and she just sleeps in her sleeping bag now with a blanket over her. Last night the girls were SO good! They both went to sleep at 7pm and both slept for over 12 hours straight! I got a good 9 hours so I am feeling almost human again - woohoo!!! Also I haven't been bitten on the nipple for 2 whole days
Heaven- Glad things are slowly improving...hope it continues
Shell- Hope your better now, how did the MCHn app go?
AJP- How did millie go on her tummy? I'm just too paranoid to put L on his tummy to sleep, when DD used to roll her to her tummy in the middle of the night I would get up and roll her back, don't think I'll be as bad with DS, well hopefully anyway. Did u get your results from the u/s?
Ali- We are ginving toast too.. DS loves it.. How's your hubby?
Holly- How r u babe?? felling any better? Did you find a mattress?
Meg- what's the amber necklace? Sounds interesting.
Hi to everyone else!!!
AFM- well we are slowly getting there with the sleep thing, last night we went out for dinner and L and DD were amazingly good!! Even though they were both very tired..Got L in bed by 9.30 and he slept to 2am.. not waking once for a resettle.. he then went down till 6.15 am...bring on daylight savings I say.. both kids up with the birds atm...
Busy weekend DD with kids birthday parties and my newphew's 18th... will try to pop in to keep up
Hi everyone
So much to catch up on.
Toast sounds like a great idea...will give it a go!
I'm really struggling with MS and feeling so guily for dumping A on the floor with her toys so I can lay on the lounge with my bucket. BF her yesterday and dry reaching into a spew bag at the same time...bless her...she just pulled off and watched and when I was done she sighed and got back on! Not alot of sympathy there lol! So I've given her her first bottle of formula and think we will be making the move...I threw up until 25 weeks with her and I can't see myself being able to feed and be that sick...scan on Monday so if all good that'll be the plan.
Have a great weekend everyone...wishing you all lots of sleep filled nights
Ali, glad that Ash is loving the vegemite! Then again, what kid doesn't?
AJP, how did Millie go on her tummy? Did you have a good night last night?
Nai, send some of that sleep this way please!! How is DD1 today?? Poor thing! Woohoo on J not having to be wrapped anymore!
Omg Shell, did I miss something? Why are you so sick?? And poor Em! Is she any better today? How did the mchn app go?
Heaven that's great news about the sleeps. Hope they continue to improve. Where is my sleepy baby!!
Pinny, sounds like you've got a busy weekend ahead - hope you get some rest. Hope L's sleeps keep getting better. I agree, bring on DLS!
Oh Ellie how awful! I hardly had MS with L, I can only imagine what it's like. Don't feel guilty - you are taking on so much atm!! How is Anika going? Good luck for the scan!
AFM, I am just hanging out for next month when uni is over!! 3 more assignments to do and the exam on the 30th. After that I have until Feb (when I start work 2 days p/w) to do nothing but be a sahm with no committments
L woofed down some roasted zuchini and pumpkin today. It was actually part of a quiche and mum picked the vegies out and fed them to him. She said she made sure there were no remnents of egg. Glad he's back to wanting solids!
Anyway, I better go as DP is getting impatient and his arms are sore...lol
LOL Heaven - that's happened to me a few times too
Ali - Ash sounds like she is doing really well.
Holly - I hope you all get some sleep
We are suffering sleep deprivation badly at the moment Miss J has been waking during the night and last night DD1 woke crying saying her wee wee hurt. We took her up to the Royal Childrens and spent a few hours there while we tried to get a urine sample. We did, they lost it and then there was a 5 hour wait (due to 4 resuscitations) so we went home. DP and DD1 then slept until lunch while I was up at 7.30. Arrrgh! It's never ending!
Seems to be dramas in here. Emily been not sleeping well cause that bloody rotavirus makes her poo constantly and he vagina is just red raw now and irritates her.
I spent all tues night vomiting non stop, went to ER in the end to get something, so finally got some sleep at 6am wed morn. Now Df has diarrhea and is moaning and groaning.
Nai- did you manage to get a new sample? Has she got a temp or anything too? Maybe water down bit cranberry juice to help with irritation. Hope you ended up getting a rest in sometime today.
AJP- Yeah the times Emily rolls onto her tummy she ends up sleeping longer and better, same as Ash did back when she was a bubba.
Kaz- How did the midwife appt go? Have you got an answers you were hoping to get?
Holly- it must be horrible feeling anxious so often. I don't have any advice as I've not been down that path but there is a depression and anxiety thread (under general health) maybe post something in there and others in similar situations may be able to give you some strategies to cope with it.
Meg- that toast idea sounds great, might do bit that with Em, even cruskits which she loves I should try, atm she has avacado on them, loves it.
We have mchn appt tomor for both the girls this time. Be nice to see how much they both weigh.
