I used to have to feed Orson to sleep, but now i just put him in his swing, it puts him tosleep within 5 minutes. Or i rock him to sleep and pat his bum quite rough (i dont hurt him obviously but he falls alseep with heaps of movement).

I used to have to feed Orson to sleep, but now i just put him in his swing, it puts him tosleep within 5 minutes. Or i rock him to sleep and pat his bum quite rough (i dont hurt him obviously but he falls alseep with heaps of movement).
We can rock her to sleep with no real trouble, but then when she wakes half an hour later she cant settle herself as she is so used to being fed or rocked to sleep. Argh I feel so selfish.
Does she have a dummy?
Refuses to take one as we didnt offer her one till after 6 weeks old as I had read they could interfere with feeding. Last week we bought some different shaped ones to try and she literally smiled when I put ine in her mouth, then chewed on it until she had dribble past her chest :) So thats the issue Im trying to overcome also is her waking and wanting to suckle on me to get back to sleep every sleep cycle...
Orson didnt like the dummy to begin with, but i kept it up and just kept putting it back in and soon enough it stays in now.
Have you tried feeding her while your laying down in bed? We co-sleep with Orson and thats how he has his middle of the night feed and most of the time i fall asleep so he doesnt disturb me. That might be an option so you can at least get some sleep overnight?
Thats what we are doing atm but I find I doont have a comfortable sleep as I cant toss and turn as after I stir she wakes up and then wants to suckle! Im going to persist with the cot thing... I guess even if she learns to self settle and stays in our bed that wouldnt be too bad I guess...
Just one part of me wants to give her everything she wants andd needs ie suckle on me 24/7 but then the other part of me needs a comfy sleep and to be able to regain some form of intimacy with DP...
Hi ladies,
well after such a good gain Sammy has started to spew again today, feeling guilty about not keeping the paed appointment but we will see how we go. I have a record of when she spews and how much and we will decide on Monday whether this is still an issue or not. Its not as bad as what it was but it made me feel anxious again...we shall see what the week-end holds. We had a really nice night out last night for pizza and beers, got home at about 10:30pm. Sammy had been asleep in the pram since 7:30 and woke up when I got her out but I gave her a quick feed and she settled pretty quickly.
Antheia: Glad to hear you are feeling better, stupid tartare sauce eh!
Blip: About your mum, it just makes you realise that the methods were so different when your mum had you eh? she is most likely having a hard time understanding what you are doing because its so different than what they were told. Good on you for "grinning and bearing it" ! Try and enjoy your mum, even if she drives you insane! though my mum and I always had a pretty rocky relationship ( she knew how to push my buttons) I miss her very much.
Sterla: How are you going with your feelings re: your c/s? You feeling any better?
Jords: I know what you mean it IS so hard. I try to do as much as possible with the no-cry solution but to be honest ( and I know my decision may not be the most popular here) I think that at one point of another, babies are going to cry because we are not doing what they want. I can actually see Sammy looking at me with eyes saying I DON"T WANT TO GO TO BED and I have given in and picked her up but try as much as possible not to when I feel its more like a tantrum. I stay next to her and I am there for her whilst she cries. I pat her head and bum and shoosh her and usually within a few minutes (sometimes its a nightmare and last 45 minutes!) she stops crying and then chews really hard on her dummy making "I'm not happy about this" mumbled sounds but 2 minutes later after she usually falls asleep. Thats what works for Sam and I, every bubba is different and thats what makes it so hard. One girl on our MG went to the sleep clinic and the bub cried for 1.5 hours straight without going to sleep..just to show you that some bubs just won't do it, so the mum went back to do what worked for her and her bub. The babies don;t read the books unfortunately, lol cause then it would be SO MUCH easier being a parent! I'm sure Winter will come around in her own time but don't give up and give her your best go, you are doing a great job!
Laura: hows' Bella and you?
Sammy just woke up! Tata!
Mxx
Moose, does Sam have reflux?
Jords: :hug: Sounds like a tough time. I don't really have any advice sorry. I tend to rock/pat Oliver to sleep most nights, and that works for us. I can totally understand wanting your bed to yourself, lol. Good luck with whatever you decide to do :hug:.
Antheia: Hope you're feeling better today.
Blip: Go Darren with the 220mls! He must have hit a growth spurt!
AFM: Not much happening here. Oliver and I are just plodding along :). I'm trying to pick up my game a bit with tummy time. In the early days I didn't do it very often at all, but in the past few weeks I've made sure to do it at least once a day, and now in the past couple of weeks I make sure I do it several times a day. Thing is, he doesn't do a great deal when he's on his tummy. He can lift his head up, and move it from one side to the other if he wants, but usually he just lies there, brings his fist to his mouth and sucks on it. I've tried toys, a mirror, me and DH sitting on the other side calling him, and moving him in different positions... but he just lies there. The only time he really moves is when he's starting to get upset. You ladies got any ideas for me?
Hope everyone is having a good day.
Antheia: dunno, she never had this issue until 10 weeks old and the only thing I have changed is the fact that I am on the mini pill now. I would be surprised if reflux would started at 10 weeks?!?! When I mentioned it to the GP, she said most likely not as she should not be dropping weight. She also goes for 2-3 days where she is not sick at all..so its right down confusing. It's a LONG time to be viral, so I might give the paed a ring on Monday again and rebook an appointment, I guess it depends on how much she has put on over the week-end and how many spews we've had.
sterla, these early months bub is not going to do much. Tummy time is just to help strengthen their neck and to give a different perspective. He wont start playing with toys etc until prob 4-5 months old when his gross motor skills increase. Doesnt mean you dont have to keep trying. He would enjoy the entertainment.
Oops, a few more posts while I was typing.
Moose: That's no good about Sammy spewing again. I hope it settles and she still gains well, etc. I guess all you can do is wait and see for now.
Thanks for asking about the c/s stuff. I'm okay today - I have days where it bothers me a lot, days when it's a passing thought, and days when I don't think about it at all. I'm honestly surprised at how much it's played on my thoughts... when I was pregnant I was of the opinion that it doesn't matter how your bub comes into the world (which is true), but it's more of a personal thing that has very little to do with Oliver. I know Oliver doesn't care how he came into the world, or that he was separated from me for 2 hours after he was born... but it bothers me. I'm still working through it in my own way, and probably will for a while yet.
Antheia: Thanks, re tummy time. He doesn't hate it at least :).
Moose: It does sound confusing. It sounds like relfux (from my limited understanding of it). It doesn't sound like she's sick, cause she's such a happy, healthy baby... confusing, yes!
Hey Ladies,
Moose- I hope Sammy gets better soon, far out it must be so awful for you(and Sammy) :(
Sterla- Have you tried putting a rolled muslin or bunny rug under Oliver's chest when having tummy time? Im the same as you I got really slack with TT but Ive picked my game up esp in this past week... I got the cutest pic of Winter smiling whilst on her tum today, so cute! Such a far cry from the screaming baby in her cot now *sob*
Hope everyone has a good weekend and MOTHERS DAY!!!
Good mothersday-eve mummies & bubs!
Moose: aww about sammy and the vomiting - could it be something in the minni pill affecting her? is she moveing more? maybe with more movement the foods comming up? as for my mother - yeah she can push my buttons, sad thing is i dont think she understands she pushing me away atm with it all :( :hug: im sure your mum is very, very proud of you, you're doing a good job! ... what was your mothers day supprise??
sterla - aww about tummy time. daz has his days where he LOVES it. others he hates it..like others have sugged a rolled up bunny rug! you can even get a pillow with some toys to clip onto it from toys are us...they duble up for bubs relaxing on their backs (a mother at MG has one and her little man looked soo cute alseep on it!) what did oli and your DH get you for mothers day?
Jords - hows winter going? i hope you've had a better night with her. random question but - what kind of sheets do you have? cotton or flanelett? maybe she doesnt like cotton ones because they take a while to warm up? i know i've got darren on a fluffy warm blanket so it warms up really fast, KWIM? i also have him in a warm grow bag/sleep stute thingy so he warms up and stays warm when i put him down (along with a cot blanket and light quilt my aunt made) he seems to be ok (and not over heat eather) like that...maybe that may help? as for useing a dummy what kind is it? have you tired 'happy baby' its the only one darren takes or even tommy tippy cherry, he's just started on that too...you're doing really well...listen to that mummy instinct it'll guide you...do you know what winters gotten you for mothers day?
Anthiea : hows orson doing? b/fing any better? how are you going with it all? what have your older kiddies got you for mothers day?
AFM: darrens had a good few days. he's 'snack feeding' more now so he's haveing maybe 6-9 feeds aday at atound 90ml-120ml plus maybe one at night of 180 in a hit. but he seems happy to do this - as am i as his refulx isnt that bad doing it that way (bugger what MCHN and diettions say!) plus its 90% EMB, which i think is normal as its more watery then formular, so he'd need more, more often! plus yesterday and today he's been sleeping more...but not in a bad way? like today he had a very chilled out day - we went to DH's friends place for a BBQ and he spent the whole day in the sling alseep/semi alseep or feeding. our friends mum said "wow he's the perfict baby" i told her "want to borrow him" lol. she said no, she looks after her daughters little man (he's two, and DH's friends son is 4 - so they're all 2 years appart!) DH gave me my mothers day pressie today - he couldnt hide it! 12 yellow roses! so sweet. he got our mothers a mosazic latron each, which i've put some tea candles in :D .
Ohh and on a good/bad note darren cried his first tears today! its so wrong but i was like "OMH DH, LOOK....TEARS!" i was worried 'cus before today i'd not seen any tears...so i feel better now i have...ooo better go dazmand is awakeing!
We had a good breastfeeding day today.
Not doing much formothers day. might go to the park or something. It's a hard day for me as my mum died almost 3 years ago so i dont like to celebrate it much.
Evening Ladies,
Just a short one as im too tired to type :)
Antheia thats good to hear about your day BF. It must be hard not having your Mum around.. I remember growing up my Mum always seemed a bit sad on mothers day(she lost her Mother in 88 I think) Big hugs to you, I hope you have a lovely day.
Blip- We dont use a dummy, and we've tried putting hot water bottles down too to warm up the sheets. I think ill put flannel down tmrw. Last night we got Bub a few sleeping bags so shes in one now...
Hope you all have a great day tmrw, type more when Ive slept :)
im sorry to hear that anthiea :( it must be hard for you & moose too. :comfort: to you both.
OMG i just *had* to post. DARREN HAD A SEMI BOOB FEED! i'd wake DH and tell him but he 'd a few to drink today and was 'feeling it' when he went off to bed haha. so i'll post it here insted! i was so happy i almost cried! i feel *alot* better aboutt things now! :dance:
hope every one has a wonderful sunday (becuase as i read elsce where 'every day is mothers day'!)
Oh what a wonderful mothers day present for you Dani!!! Thats great news!
Thats great Blip!!!
Hope your all having a wonderful day!!
Winter just laughed for only the third time, it was huge and just kept going and going(first time DP has seen it too) best mothers day present ever!
How was everyone's Mother's Day?
Jords: I tried a rolled up muslin wrap under Oliver's chest for tummy time, and I can't believe the difference it made! He was lifting his head up heaps more - it must make it easier for them. I had tried it ages ago, but it didn't work so well then. That's great about Winter laughing, and wonderful that your DP got to see it too :D. How is Winter's self settling going?
Blip: That's fantastic about Daz having a go on the booby! What a great confidence boost for you! Just goes to show that all your hard work and determination is definitely worth it!
Antheia: :hug: I hope you managed through today okay. That's so great that Orson had a good b/feeding day!
Moose: So, what was your big Mother's Day surprise??? Can't wait to hear about it! How is Sammy going? Has the spewing settled down?
I had a pretty good day. We went to my parent's for breakfast this morning. My sister had made french toast and I brought along some croissants - yummo! My mum was spoilt with her presents.
Oliver got me a photo frame with 'I :heartbeat: my mum' on it with a really cute photo of him with a huge grin on his face in it! I also got a card with another picture of him on the front (in his bumbo seat). Inside there was a little scribble that DH said he did himself. DH gave him the pen and that scribble was the result. It's so cute too, cause you can kind of make out a heart in the scribble! Awww :).
In the afternoon we went into the city to Target and ended up spending $100 on clothes for Oliver!!! Woops :rolleyes:. I can't help myself - everything is sooo cute!
Oliver has been really good all day - really smiley and chatty - a nice added Mother's Day present! :D
Oh... and I love all these new tickers popping up! So nice :D.
evening ladies!
anithea - i hope today was ok for you :hug:
jords - :dance: so glad to hear winters laughing! and your DP got to hear it! :yay:! how's she going with the sleeping in a cot?
Sterla: glad you had a good mothers day! you know something? this moring i thought "hrm, i wonder if sterla is having croissants like at chrisrmas time..." haha...i then went and bought my self one! haha. im gkad oli is liking tummy time...its a really good way of helping wind come out...i know darren likes a good ol' fart or three with tummy time!
AFM: Daz had another good semi boob feed...but not as good as last night...but still! :dance: makes it all worth it! mothers day was good...DH only rembered after a chick at work reminded him "your wifes a mother too now..." haha he shouldnt have admited that and i'd have thought he was clever! haha. darren was good today. even with my mum ( :ROFL: )and with my MIL. my MIL bought a card and got DH to get darren to 'write in it' (DH got him to write D.A in it.) and "gave" it to me. which was nice.
now i better *try* and sleep...
BTW, darren just kinda woke up...then went back to sleep...woke up and back to sleep...i tried SOOO hard not to laugh at him...
Hello ladies,
hope you all had a fabulous Mothers day! I know I did! Mine started with Sammy actually giving me an extra hour sleep followed by my DH bringing Sammy in bed to give me my presents. My 1st one is a small canvas that said Happy 1st Mothers Day Mummy, with her hand & foot prints done in paint. Awwwwwww it was so cute, the prints are abit smudged as Dh had a bit of a challenge to get Sammy to open up her hand and apparently ended up with pain all over her! LOL
My second present & the surprise was DH got Sam's fingerprint on a silver dog tag ( like they wear in the army around their neck) so when we have our second baby, I will add another one on there with their fingerprint. Is really lovely. Then DH made me a pancake, bacon & maple syrup breakfast which was simply decadent. Then we went over to my Dh's auntie for a full on mothers day lunch. All the aunties, uncles were fighting for a nurse with Sam, LOL it was a REALLY nice day and I went to bed last night thinking this should be Mothers Day week, not day! lol I am going to get Sammy weighed this morning but I know she has put on some good weight, I can see it in her face and tummy, it is getting rounder and I see new rolls appearing everywhere. One of Dh's auntie is a EC nurse and said that Sam was portraying the behaviours of a reflux baby and recommended we see a paed about it. She is still spewing a couple times a day but at least its not full feeds anymore, so will ring up this morning to make an appointment. She also told me that Sam had reached 99% of her 4 months old milestones, so that made her mum and dad pretty proud!! Enough Blabbering! I forgot to mention that she also slept til 6am today so I am FULL of beans and ready to clean the house..believe me it needs it! LOL No rest for the mums!!
Antheia: I know how you feel, its hard when we miss our mums isn't it but I hope your 3 wee ones and Dh made you feel special nonetheless. What a good little boy to have a nice BF day for his mum!
Sterla: Aww your pressies & card sound awesome! And yes I know how everything look so cute, its so hard not to buy THE WHOLE store! LOL
Blip: thats so awesome for you and Daz, the LC's are right to want to show you off as a model of perseverance, well done :) Hope the rest of your Sunday went really well.
Well this house looks like a bomb has hit it so I better get my domestic goddess apron on and get movin'! Hope you all have a fantastic day!!
Mxx
Oups forgot about Jords: the laugh is such a special moment isn't it, its so loud and innocent, makes me want to cry when they do and how good that your DP got to hear it as well. So now he KNOWS you are not going crazy :P Hows the self settling going sweetie, is it getting any easier? Hope you got some nice sleep ins like I did for Mothers Day!
Mxx
Good Afternoon!!!
Its great to hear you girls had a wonderful mothers day*
Moose- All your gifts sound lovely esp the fingerprint on a necklace, how nice you will always have that to remember how itty bitty Sammy's fingers once were.
I had tears in my eyes when Winter was laughing yesterday, it truly is the most beautiful thing, and she has such a huge mouth(like her Dad, we joke she is like a snake how they detatch their jaws), so beautiful!
Blip- That is awesome about Darren latching, you are so amazing to still persevere! And how worth it is it?!
Sterla- Glad to hear the muslin worked, I tried it when she was newborn and it didnt do a thing, but now like you said it works a charm... I got a lamaze catterpiller which i put under Winter and its made her hate TT alot less, she dosnt grizzle for ages now!
How addictive is baby shopping? Its sooo easy to spend on bub! I make a beeline to the nursery section in every store now, shocking! Big W is my fav :) Sounds like your mothers day was lovely, aw that photo must be so cute!!
Antheia- Hope you had a good day with your family :)
SO! Far out, I think my blood pressure is through the roof with getting Winter to self settle... I think things are getting better slowly, but when she's crying and looking at me when she's in her cot I feel SO selfish! DP and I take turns to settle her when he's home but its hard during the day when he's at work. Amazing though, Winter slept in her cot from around 9 last night till 1am!! We had been trying to get her down since around half seven though... god she screamed so much, then we settle her to a point of bliss and then literally as soon as she touched the cot mattress she would scream again and the whole process starts again. I feel like Im kind of cheating too as Ive been falling asleep whilst feeding her in bed during the night, so in turn confusing her... I dont know. But I think we have made progress, a week ago she had never slept in her cot, not even for a nap.
Not sure if I mentioned that mothers group went well last week? Im definately going to keep going, it was so good just to get out of the house and have some social interaction. At first everyone was a bit shy but there was a few ladies who got the ball rolling, and most of them seem really nice. There was even a baby there who made Winter look skinny(and thats saying something!) so cute! Afterward I walked to the next 'burb to get the bus which was awesome to get a little exersize, I definately need to get out and moving more I think.
Then sat I woke up to DP announcing it was "mothers weekend" he had already been grocery shopping while Winter and I slept and made me the most amazing brekkie! Turkish bread with beans, spinach, fried tomatos, bliss! Then we went took Bub to the park for the first time, it was really nice(and Im not yet over how kick-ass my new pram is either!).
Sunday DP made another amazing brekkie for me(roast field mushroom w garlic tomato, spinach on turkish) and we went to the markets, another great day! Our Mums live about an hour drive away so we didnt see them but Im catching up with my Mum this wed as I booked her into a fancy salon to get her hair done as a suprise this wed.
Geez enogh about me!!! Sorry to go on! Apart from the cot fiasco Winter is going brilliantly, still a happy little Bub!
Hope everyone is having a great monday! :)
Jords: Thats sounded like a fantastic Mothers day week-end! I like the concept..I'm trying to make mine last a week...fat chance I reckon! LOL Thats so good about the MG as well, it is good to get out of the house and see other mums for some adult interactions, even though we usually talk only about the bubs anyway! The necklace is really awesome, I just love it! And as for self settling, you just hang in there, it will get better but it takes time, next thing you know Winter will be like ...ahh ok mum, bedtime and sleep soundly after grizzling for 2 minutes (just for show!!)
On the sadder side of things, I went to weigh Sam this morning and she has only gained 10gr since last Thursday, so I am down right confused, seriously, she has not been spewig more, if anything its been less. 2 or 3 smallish spew a day so how can she gain 130 in 3 days and then only 10 in the next 4 is ????? we are booked in to see the paed on Wednesday am for an appointment to see whats going on. I am sooo surprised cause I can definately see more rolls and more fat on Sam.
Hopefully the Dr has got some answers.
MIL coming around tonight for tea, so better put the finishing touches to the house..it feels SO GOOD to have a clean house!
Mxx
Blip: Woohoo! Go Daz with the booby feeds :clap:!!! How nice of Darren to 'give' you a card that he's 'written' in! Too cute :D.
Jords: You're doing such a great job persevering with Winter's self settling! That's great that she slept in her cot for so long! It will settle down, even though it probably seems like an eternity to that time right now. That's great about the MG! I still have ages and ages till mine starts in July! Why there aren't more groups running I'm not sure... I guess there just isn't the numbers for it in Tassie.
Moose: Big :hug: about Sammy's small gain. How confusing and frustrating for you. How strange that it was a small gain when you can see fat rolls popping up everywhere... I hope you get some answers with this paed appointment. Your Mother's Day presents sound great :D! What a fantastic keepsake to have!
Antheia: How are you going? Has Orson been b/feeding okay?
AFM: I had such a 'blah' day. I didn't feel sick or anything, just incredibly lazy. I felt like flopping on the couch and watching tv all day... but of course we can't do that with little bubs about. But, Oliver ended up having a very sleepy day, so I actually got to have my lazy day after all. Oh, and I put Oliver in some of his new clothes - a pair of little jeans and a knitted cardigan... soooooo cute!!!!
Orson has been breastfeeding fine lately, yay!
That's great Antheia!!! :D
Im a shocker, DP logged online and of course I cant help myself.. and then I read your Girl's posts and it would be rude not to reply! ;)
Thats great to hear Antheia, you must be so stoked!! Be especially stoked with yourself too for sticking in there.
Moose- Damn that is not good about Sammy... I really hope the pead can give you guys some answers... How good is a clean house?! Some days I cant be arsed though(ok most days!) Im particularly bad with vacuming. I leave it out so I will remember to use it later in the week.. ha yes thats my theory. Eventually DP gets sick of tripping over it and packs it away lol
Sterla- Oh how cute is your ticker pic?! I wonder what Oliver is pondering?
GUESS WHAT????? Winter fell asleep in her cot this afternoon and slept for 2 hrs!!!! I went in at one point and she woke up, blinked a few times and went back to sleep!I couldnt believe it! So its getting easier... I think Im going to try and keep her in her cot after I feed her in the middle of the night...
Oh I forgot to mention I got a bunch of flowers and 'BabyLove' Robin Barker book for mothers day too!(stoked)
moose: thats a really cool mothers day pressie sam go you! it'll be pritty cool when you have another bub, or two (how meany are you thinking of having) to see all their little fingers lined up! aw :( about the waight gain - question was it the same set of scales? when where they last checked to be zeroed? i know with daz one day at the MCN he'd gained 10g or something then 24 hrs later he'd gained 100g, so i'd question the scales! you're doing good, and as for reflux - waight loss it *can* but daz has it semi bad and hes gaining waight ok, as long as she's happy and having heaps of wet nappys...
Jords: WOO for mother weekend. i wish i had that! haha DH didnt even manage to make me toast! haha but i dont mine LOL. im glad winters doing better in her cot...it'll take time...but you're doing better then me, daz still falls alseep in my arms!
sterla : yay for 'lazy' days. i miss 'em! but im glad Oli agreed and had a chilled out day too! how hard is it *not* to buy an entire store for them? how cute are mini jeans? DH wont let me buy any for daz yet as "he'll grow out of them too fast" haha
anthiea: Woo im glad to hear orson is doing good at booby feeds :dance:
AFM: today was a busy day! i got 'sick' of my hair so i went to a hairdresser and had them cut it short! its been 9 years since it was this short! but i likes it. i needed a 'drasic' change. plus i feel like i've cut my past away...which makes me feel really really good. now i start growing it out again! haha. daz was good at the hair dressers, which was good. Ohh guess what? darren rolled over in his cot onto his side...whilest alseep! i walked in he was on his back. walked back in 20mins later...and he was on his side! i was shocked but so, so proud! this week is turning into a busy one! tomorrow = lunch with a friend wednesday = MG (and hopefully an appt. with my GP about motilim) and thursday is the phyiso and LC at the hospital!
Any one else had strange cravings since giving birth? i've got a thing for milk and yogot (i had 1kg in two days of yogot before i had daz LOL!) or am i a little crazy here?
Blip: Cool about the haircut. I've been thinking about doing something different with my hair too, but keep chickening out when I go to the hairdressers, lol. How great that Daz rolled onto his side! Has he rolled over yet? If he hasn't he's probably getting close.
Jords: That's great news about Winter sleeping in her cot! She'll be sleeping like an angel soon enough :). Lol - not sure what Oliver is pondering, very deep in thought though!
Antheia: Go Orson go!!!
Well, Oliver has fallen asleep on me, so I should probably put him down for the night.
Talk about busy week. Im meeting a friend tomorrow, mothers group wednesday and thursday i have DS1's speech therapy, play group and meeting another friend! Phew! I will be pooped.
Sterla : i think he's pondering eather a) the meaning of life or b) weather or not he's hungry or c) all the the above!
as for the hair chop i think "it grows back bigger and better"! plus with daz grabbing it, it was time LOL. as for rolling fully onto his tummy not *yet* but when we put him on it he pulls his legs up and kinda pushes his head along the ground, kinda crawling minus the arms! haha
anthiea are you living my life? sounds like my week LOL!
Sounds like it lol!
i hope the speechie appt. goes well. i'll be interested what she says...
Hi everyone!
Im taking up BB's offer to get banned for a few days
I REALLY REALLY need to catch up on a few things and give the kids some attention ;)
Hope all is well, will catch up when i get back xx
