Malyna- so its a big birthday for you coming up! Are you doing anything for it?
OP- Congrats! How exciting! Are you going to find out what you're having?
Meg- I'd be bit peeved to I hate when they think their activities are a higher priority than your own, they do what they want when they went.
Nai- woohoo, 13kg is fantastic, you must be so proud of yourself.
Heaven- thats fantastic things have improved, there is always light but its hard to see when things are going bad, woohoo.
Ali- our clocks stuffed up too, cause they changed DLS from last weekend in oct to the first not everything changes on time. Sucks going back to work, hope your day went ok.
Emily improving but still not right, no more temps but she still looks bit pale and is sleeping alot more, yesterday between 7am and 7pm she spent 7.5hrs napping (not all at once) today shes had 5 day sleeps! Still quite clingy and totally off solids, having bottles but not alot. A worry when they're unwell!

AFU crap night millie woke at 11pm when her alarm went offf, then 2am, 3am and i eventuallly bought her into bed at 3.40am i was over it and very tired
L is still sick. I am convinced he's got asthma. I also think he might have bronchiolitis again so we are off to the doctors this afternoon. Everyone is sick in my household at the moment, including me! This is the last thing I need as I have so much study to do for my exam on Friday *Sigh* So typical! Moreover...I have misplaced my retainer so I'm scared my teeth are going to move and I'm pretty sure that my wisdom teeth are making a move as my jaw is aching on the left side and I remember my last xrays a couple of years ago showed they were going to be a problem soon. Great! So tomorrow I'm off to the ortho so they can take moulds and make a new retainer, get a referral for an xray and then see the dentist to find out the damage!
SOrry no personals, just exhausted - getting zero sleep
Exhausted...bushfire had us evacuated Sunday night...home late Sunday only to be on standy to go again due to fire jumping containment lines...more waiting today...the upside...haven't had time to think about ms!!!
Sorry girls I've been MIA again lately - so busy!!
1. Sitting? Yes
2. Crawling? Nowhere close!! He does try to fly when on his belly though
3. Standing up holding furniture? No but will support most of his weight when I hold him upright.
4. How many meals a day? Usually 3.
5. What do you do for play time at home? Floor time, toys, the latest game is banging things together (drums, aligator xylophone, random objects he can reach etc) and he also likes to flick things with his fingers, kicking his legs (ALL THE TIME), patting the dog and laughing at her, reading stories, toys with moving parts, he also enjoys riding in the pram and around the supermarket!!
6. Still have a dummy? Yes - only for bedtime and occasionally if we're out for hours on end and he's tired but won't sleep
7. Saying words? ah-da and ah-dada is the fave but also deedee, heydar (sounds like hey there), googoo, dar, doo, blah blah other indistinguishable noises as well. Heard mumum a long time ago (months) but not recently - thinks it's funny when I say it to him. Also, it's not really a word but he does this trilling gargling noise in the back of his throat sometimes and has recently started making a growling type noise too (similar to when he's pushing a poo!!! lol).
8. clapping? no but likes it when we do.
9. waving? no but thinks it's funny when we do.
10. teeth? no thank god!!
Sleep - day sleeps have been much improved lately - he's doing 1.5 to 3 hour sleeps now Whoot!! and generally has 3 with the third sleep a short 40mins nap between 4-5pm. At night he's just started going a bit longer too - has dropped the 1:30-2am feed and goes down at 6:30pm, feeds at around 10pm then through til around 4:30-5am. Up by 7am.
OP - A massive congrats darl!!! I was just thinking of you the other day and wondering if you were utd yet. Such great news!!! Will you find out the sex?
Malyna - I know what you mean about decision making. I didn't really get given any options along the way (as in they weren't presented as choices) and then all of a sudden they were saying, "if you want a live baby we need to go to theatre now" I have since been told they misdiagnosed the CTG readout so Jacob wasn't as distressed as they thought he was. So frustrating but I am trying to take that view you talked about where things happen for a reason to teach us something or show us something. I'll get there. Hope the weather is fine for your birthday!! Whoohoo on your third book. How do we read the first two? Are you publishing them?
Olive - Whoot on the sleep!! Hope your ear is getting better.
Shell - Must be worrying that DD isn't back to her usual self. That is a lot of sleep. Hopefully it's helping her fight whatever is going on in her body. The sore throat hangs around for a while doesn't it? I have been meaning to ask you for ages how her legs/hips are? Have they evened up over time?
Ali - Glad to hear DD is getting better. How are you feeling now? That's a long time to be feeling unwell. You must be so over it! Yay on your weight loss too mate! btw, you're unreal to have bf this long without feeling resentful before now. I feel that way from time to time too - not all day but just some feeds some of the time. It's better now he's not feeding 2 hourly all afternoon though.
Holly - I might try DS on cheese soon too. You've inspired me! Sorry to hear everyone is sick! Seems to be the month for it. Hope the docs visit goes ok and your wisdom teeth stay put for a while longer (at least until the semester is over!) Good luck in your exam too!
Heaven - Yay on the mumumum. Your DD is so cute and she can really move!!
Nai - congrats on your weight loss!! That is such a great effort!! I got into my swimmers yesterday and it was a very unhappy moment so I need to get back on track.
Meg - That sucks you missed the gym. What's it like to be back at work?
Ellie - OMG I hope you guys are ok. I haven't been watching the news for days so didn't realise there were fires about. How stressful!! I've been there and done that in the past re: ready to evac and hosing embers in the yard. It's no fun at all.
Pinny - Hope DS is giving you more sleep at night darl.
Ok who have I forgotten?? sorry!! Hi and hope all is well.
AFU - Went to our first swimming lesson yesterday. Aside from my unhappy body trying to get back into my swimmers it was a lot of fun and DS really enjoyed it!
Think I'll be having an early night tonight - I taught for 4 hours in the pool today for swimming lessons and I rode my bike to the pool and back! I'm shattered - I hope the girls sleep well for me tonight!!
millie woke at 11pm when her alarm went offf, then 2am, 3am and i eventuallly bought her into bed at 3.40am i was over it and very tired 
sorry!! Hi and hope all is well.
