tracehb - so glad you enjoyed your visiting, it's wonderful having people around to fuss about them and give you some time.
DD1 used to get some yellow chunks when she swapped to formula so i think that could be a possibility.
Maddie is growing so well, keep up the wonderful work.

Shantelle - welcome and congrats on your little girl.. we were in the same belly buddies group, so nice to hear your doing well.

Teagz - Jackson is so damn cute, keep up the great work hun.
I am glad we wont be going back for anymore, we have twins on mums side, dads side and Marks mums side... if we went back for 1 more we would prob get 2 (that happened to my cousin)

Petal - so sorry to hear about your surgery, when A was just over 5mths i had to have my gallbladder removed we finally got her back on the (.)(.) only to realise a stone was stuck and i ended up in hosp for 6 days on a drip.. my milk supply was GONE and i couldn't get it back so glad your persevering and hope your recovery is going well.

To everyone else HELLO and hope your going well, post is getting a bit long so will do more later.

AFM - we spent some more time up the house, 1 night was just the girls and I which was fun except Z decided to have a hissy from 2am til 4am then ended up having BOTH girls asleep in my bed (a blowup)
She is VERY alert and so strong in her head, she is rolling from belly to back and on her back is getting up on her side, lets hope she doesn't figure it out JUST YET.
Can't wait to get her weighed, i can't believe she is 11wks already, it's gone so so quickly.
Well i better get going, got washing etc to do from out at the house and going to make A some apple & sultana mini muffins, if anyone has muffin flavor ideas please checkn out this thread and let me know.... https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...n-mixture.html

Eluned - strange re the video link. i just tried it from here and it worked. it seems a bit random as i had someone else say the same thing that it was private but then it worked for them. strange you tube!

Hi Girls,

It's been so long since I posted in here so I wont try and catch up on the personals, just wanted to say hi and that I hope everyone's doing well!

Can't believe how quickly time has flown! Austin will be 3 months soon were did that time go??

We've been doing lots of reading lately, Austin's really taken a liking to all of his shiny books. I read and he smacks the pages and giggles he's also discovered how to yell, lol if he needs to get my attention he'll just squeal and when I come start giggling, super cute!

Take care ladies, hopefully I'll fall back into the swing of this thread

Caroline rolled over tonight, so excited lol she looked petrified after she did it though and cried... possibly wondering how the heck she ended up face up!

[~Minny~]

illeyena - awsome go caroline it cracks me up everytime seb rolls over and the face he pulls.

Teagz - i dont have twins on my side or my partners side....but would LOVE twins...crazy yes

Petal - glad you are recovering and the milk supply came back!

zavara - seb was 8 pound 11 when born if you wanna add that it

Ummm i cant remember what i else i was gonna write

Sebs got what seems to be reflux all of a sudden, havent been to the docs but have tryed all the usual things until someone recommended infant gaviscon. I have been giving him a dose before bed and the difference is amazing....although apparently it can cause constipation so gotta watch out for that. Hopefully it will start to settle down again, gonna take him to the chiro for some sessions there as well to help.

I can't wait for Austin to roll over! he gets halfway over, swings his legs around like a little helicopter

[Party-of-five]

babies rolling...Im thinking Milly needs to spend more time on the floor but she is an easy target for Lucy then(big footed clumsy cuddley sister = squished Milly)

Now that Milly is spending more time chatting and giggling(so cute) she is sleeping heaps better some nights she sleeps thru other nights she wakes 1-2 times for a bottle.

we are going away camping for easter,not ruffing it we have a cabin at a caravan park, Im feeling abit overwhelmed at the thought of packing for 5 people for 5 days especialy when the two littlest ladies need the most stuff!!

My DH goes for the snip in a few weeks 3 is deffinetly(sp?) enough for me but its still very sad iykwim.

Oopps so sorry for the selfish post...Milly has woken for her bedtime bottle ill get back tomorrow to do some personals

[illeyena]

Party of five - Caroline hasnt had much tummy time she has previously hated it so much!! she still isnt a fan but her one off roll over has inspired me to do tummy time more often. have fun camping, the packing sounds like a BIG job.

DS2 hardley has any floor time as if DS1 is up he trys to pick him up or sit on him or throw toys at him!!!
DS2 is very smiley and chatty thought very cute!!

Hope you are all doing well.

[Bun]

I have the same issue with floor time here. I feel like DS should be on the floor more often but it's too dangerous with DD around!! She stands on him, throws things at him, trips over him, tries to pick him up, bites him.....

[Party-of-five]

Glad im not the only one

[lindsaymaree]

Our biggest floor time issue is space, atm we're in a very small 2bedroom unit, thank heavens we're moving next week or Austin would have had to learn to crawl doing 3-point turns!!

[jenjams]

Another one here who's first born likes to "Play" with the baby. I try and do tummy time with DD2 lying on her tummy on me or holding her upright etc. He head control is getting stronger.

Everyone who is on disposable nappies, which ones are you using? We started on huggies with DD1 then discovered Aldi and were happily using them until DD1 decided on being a brand girl and saw elmo on a nappy in a catalogue. She now wont wear anything other than pampers which I dont particularly like.
With DD2, she is in huggies at the moment because we have managed to get them cheap. So she is in the Huggies... Crawlers. We opened that box this morning. We will be putting her into Aldi when that runs out

[Laranna]

Yeah we are a bit slack on the floor time as well. DS tries to huggle her or pulls her arms and legs. I really have to watch him with her. But she loves him, she will just gaze at him and smile. Too cute.

[illeyena]

Jen - we tried pampers because I got a pack of 40 for $8 but I agree they aren't great. they're soft but just a hint of wee and they're soaked. I liked Aldi but had already stocked up on baby love which are also good.

[Laranna]

Jen, we use huggies as well. I found the other brands leaked.

[feeb]

Huggies and pampers here, no issues with either here, I find pampers hold a lot of wee.
