Well, after such a lazy day yesterday, today I've been go, go, go! I've been cleaning the house like mad in between feeding/changing/playing with Oliver. I'm a bundle of energy!
Keep safe RR. The banning idea is a good one. Although i already took my hiatus back in Dec last year for 2.5 months. I only usually need one once a year.
Oh Antheia that sucks so bad! Do you know what is wrong with it? Hopefully nothing major. Cars are such a pain sometimes. Happy 3 months Orson!
Moose- No good to hear your not feeling well, keep up on your vitamins and eat lots of vegies!(Although Im sure you probably dont feel like slaving in the kitchen right now) Yesterday must have been a stressful day for you, I hope the mottilum kicks in soon for you
How is Sterla and Blip?!
Winter and I had our mg this morning, Im so tired. I seriously have to re-train my body clock its ridiculous, every time I get up before 10 I struggle! Mg was good, I chatted to the same lady as last week and another lady who are both really nice. One of them had quite a traumatic birth, I told her about BB and how there is support groups online for women who are experiencing the same thing. I though of you Sterla as she had a c/s and didnt get to hold her baby for quite a while either...
Tommorrow we are going into the city again, this time to catch up with Winter's godmother which should be good...
Hope everyone is well!
Oh I got lots of laughs this afternoon before nap time it was so lovely, and sleeping is going good except Im sneaky and bring her into the bed in the middle of the night for snuggles.
Anthiea glad there wast anything too bad wrong with the car! i left my parkers on for an hour and only *just* got the car started...a guy i went to tafe with left his parkers on for 5 hrs...the amuseing part - his name was "dimmie" HAPPY 3 MONTHS ORSON. and on 3 months of b/f! you're both doing SOOO well!
moose- its hard isnt it? you're doing the right thing! mottium normaly takes 2-3 days to kick in...thats how long it took me for it to work! and expess express express! im glad sammy is doing better. as for a test waigh i can say one thing...they SUCK and they *should* do more then one, thats what my LC told me. that b/f babys take differant amounts at differant feeds...but i hope sammy is back to the boob fully soon! (if you need a conferance booster check out the WHO stats on hight/waight i found its helped me HEEEEEAPS!) you're doing a good job keep it up!
Peach - haha i go SOOO excited seeing a *new* name lol then realised it was you! its good to have late night cuddles - i do that with daz after his early feed hes back in bed with me - and as we have a night light on its so wonderful just watching him dirft off to sleep...all snuggly and warm!
AFM: went to the physo today. i have to make 'darren more aware of his arms and legs' (where the hell do they come up with this? hes only 3months and 1 week! sheesh!) and what not. saw the LC she was happy with him. hes now 5.66kg! we're getting there. we tried a feed with a supply line but he wasnt interested, rather grumpy. but he did have a spew with the physio...so i dont blame him! but im happy. the LC said i *may* not be able to get daz back on the boob, we'll try and if not i feel ok within myself but i wont be giving up expressing any time soon! my aim for expressing is 8 months (it was 6 but i've made it this far!) other then that darren is doing good...and im feeling better, i see the LC next week...and the phyiso again in three weeks...i need to call the paed and make and appt to see him...now i've seen all the profenals about odds and ends so im not going there 3 times LOL. i better go express mine self...hope every one has a good night!
Well, its been a very quiet week-end on BB for us hasn't it? I've been sick as a dog the last 3 days with a nasty cold that I gave to everyone in the family. Luckily Sammy only has a bit of a cough, my milk must have given her some good antibodies to fight it. We are off to the paed this morning to get her weighed and see whether the formlua has had an impact on her weight gain. I am sure it has as she just looks a lot rounder and there are a few more rolls everywhere! She seems to be loving the formula, so much that sometimes I feel she is not draining my boobs as much as she should as she knows she is getting more afterwards....Blip and Antheia have you had this issue?? I guess the bottle would be a lot less hard work for her than trying to get it out of my breast.
I am SOOO excited, I bought myself an electric pump this week-end. HALLELUIAH! I am SOO over my little old manual pump. Can't wait for it to get here ( should be here on Wednesday)
Sammy did the cutest thing this morning, she was on her playmat and the DH turns around and was talking to me for a bit and by the time he turned back around, Sam had fallen asleep on her mat on the floor. awwwwwwwwwwwww it was so cute! She is still spewing quite regularly so dunno if me being off dairy has made a difference or not but yesterday I had a couple pieces of DH's gozleme with so very little cheese and Sam had massive spews after that, so maybe the Dr is onto something but then again, she had just as big spews before that..we shall see. Will update later once I am back from the Dr.
Hope everyone had a nice week-end? How are all our little bubba's??
Hey Girls,
How was everyones weekend? Argh DP and I are sick AGAIN! Another little cold, it sucks so bad! I think it is because Ive been not looking after myself enough and am so tired (and lazy ) to cook proper nutritious meals lately. Winter is seeming to be fighting it ok, a little bit stuffy but otherwise ok, so I know how you feel Moose!
Moose, can I ask did you get a good price for electric pump? Did you get it online? I have a hens night to attend in july and was thinking of expressing instead of getting formula for that night....
Sterla- Happy (belated) Birthday to your DH! Did he have a good one? How are you and Oliver?
Blip- Hello! How is everything with Darren?
Raver-Welcome back! How is little Bella and yourself?
Our weekend was good, just been so tired though. Winter and the cot fiasco is still going, but she is getting much better... I find Im so paranoid though, think I might have already mentioned DP and I check her every ten mins...
Moose, yep i have that problem where Orson knows he'll get the bottle afterweards so sometimes won't even feed at all. It's becoming a real hassle but no one can give me advice on how to fix it.
In regards to Sam spewing all the time. I just remembered Charlie wasa very spewy baby. Right up until he was about 1. Our carpet is blue and there were white spots allover it because he would crawl along and then spew every so often. I was told that he was just a 'happy chucker' and that they grow out of it eventually.
AFM: I am so sick. I now have a sinus infection. My face feels like its been hit with a mallot. And i have this nasty cough.
Orson wouldn't breastfeed for anbout 36 hours. I thought it was the end. But he fed early this morning and hadamassive feed just now. Thank goodness!
Yes, we were rather quiet over the weekend weren't we. I hope everyone had a nice weekend.
Moose: Hope you're feeling better soon. That's great that Sammy didn't get too sick - you're milk did the job . I hope your paed appointment goes well and Sammy has put on lots and lots of weight! Ooh, and an electric breast pump! I have a manual one, and if I ever have to start doing more than occasional expressing I'll be picking up an electric on too - there's just too much work involved with a manual one. Awww, so cute about Sammy .
Antheia: How are you going? Big to you.
AFM: Oliver had his check up this morning... well, eventually. It was supposed to be at at 9.30am, but I got there and no one was there. The open session is from 10am-12, so I thought I'd see if someone showed up. Someone came at 9.45am - it turns out 5 of their nurses are sick, so it was one of the bosses there today for the open session. She had no idea about my appointment though. Had Oliver weighed and measured - he's now 6.28kg and 62cm long - he'd gained 360g and grown 1.5cm over the past two weeks. So, all is going well with us .
I've also been making some progress with putting Oliver down to sleep awake. I always would rock him to sleep of a night, then put him down, but the past few nights I have been putting him down awake. He just lies there talking to himself for a bit, then slowly drifts off - such a good boy .
This weekend was very busy for us. It was my DH's birthday on Friday, so on Saturday his mum came up, and so did one of his friends. We went out for tea Saturday night with my family, his mum, and some friends (14 of us in total). Afterwards we went to my parent's place for cake. We also found out that DH's brother (who has only met Oliver once for 5 minutes) got a tattoo for his 18th birthday, and guess what it was! On the inside of his arm he has Oliver's full name! So sweet of him!
DH's mum and the friend stayed Saturday night and didn't leave till late Sunday afternoon. I'm still recovering, and poor Oliver was pretty exhausted by all the visitors I think, cause he's been sleeping a lot.
Well, Oliver has woken, so better go. Hope everyone is well .
Good Morning!
Im sorry Moose, I dont know how I managed to completely miss your last post?!?? Thank you for the tips on expressing.. gee it seems like a lot of work! How good is ebay for a bargain?! I went through a stage when pregnant where i was obsessed with it! I must admit though Im a bit irritated with a seller Im dealing with atm, how hard is it to reply to a message?!(sorry not your fault Moose)
Blip- Thats great you found your camera.. maybe it fell out of your handbag if you put it on the car floor? You must have been so relieved when you found it.
Sterla- Hope your having a good day with your friend, Your a busy Mummy! Thanks again for the photo tip, very helpful*
Antheia- Hope your getting better!
Raver- Hellooooooo???
Nothing exciting really today, its been raining non stop since last night so im in my dressing gown and am not getting dressed all day Ive decided... Winter is having her morning nap, she is so wonderful. A little bit worried though about the drive to Bundy friday though as we are going so well with the cot routine and after we went out 3 days in a row last week it went back to the screaming start all over again....
