Hi Jennie, Welcome welcome welcome.. The 8th Jan is a lovely date
It's been quiet in here ladies. How is everyone going?
All is well here. My DD2 is a placid little thing mostly and very smiley. Not very keen on rolling over though. She does however LOVE her exersaucer and jolly jump!
hey ladies! Sorry I haven't been around much! I'm going to do a horrible "me" post, sorry!!
OH, but welcome Jennie! Always nice to have a few others join hehe
I'm having a bit of a moral dilema.... The last few weeks Jackson has become a HORRIBLE sleeper... HORRIBLE. Just waking up randomly for no reason (that I can see) and slowly and slowly it's gotten worse and worse until Monday night O.O; I couldnt and didn't get him to sleep until 3.30am. Everytime he'd drift off and I'd put him down he'd wake up with all his arms and legs flapping around and get upset. I ended up having to call my Mum over because otherwise I was goind to throttle him
Tuesday night he spent half the night sleeping on me in a reclining chair, until about 1.30am where I put him to sleep in his cot on his belly.... where he slept soundly until 9pm.
So, Wednesday night I put him down at 7pm, on his belly and he slept right thru until 5.30. So, I'm in this horrible situation where I want sleep, and I know he seems comfy on his belly but do I want to risk the SIDS issue
And then I feel horrible being as that I lost a baby 18 months ago and now I"m intentionally putting jackson at risk just so we can both get some sleep -.-;
Boo.
On a more positive note... Jacksons really starting to move now. He can half flip himself from back to side now hehe. And is completely fascinated with his feet and blowing raspberries... so cute!
Teagz - my son would only sleep on his tummy from only a few weeks old!! i swear that the first few nights I must have slept with one eye open on him. Caroline will sleep during the day on her tummy but for some reason (so far) she will sleep on her back at night. I'm sure this will change anytime now. anyways, it's something to think about - how's his neck strength? when Caroline wakes up from sleeping on her tummy she lifts her head up and calls out to me (as such) so maybe he'll be okay?
He has good neck strength. He can push his whole chest right up off the floor/mattress with his arms too... and I spose he's able to roll to his back if he needs to.
He was the same, took his naps during the day on his belly and slept at night on his back. it didn't bother me so much then because during the day I can keep a close eye on him. These last few nights I've been up every couple of hours checking on him too!
We just get this SIDS Stuffed drummed right in, I hear it echo whenever I put him down for a sleep!
