Jlk, Lexie is in 000 is short & chubby. She was 5.2kg at 10wks (that's the last time she was weighed). I will find out again next wk what she now weighs.

[jlk]

I guess it dosent help that they all have different starting weights.

Tehya was 5.2kg at 11 weeks and 62cm. she is being weighed again tomorrow

Hi Girls,

Just popping in with a quick hello. Have been super-busy, we are moving house next weekend. I have been reading, but don't have much time to post at the mo!

All is well with us, I'm really enjoying my boys. Ted is just gorgeous - a very cruisy baby. He only catnaps by day (unless he is in the pram or car) and still wakes 1-2 times a night, but he resettles well.

Dusty, I hope you and Freya are adjusting to the harness. I know at least 3 people whose bubs have had them recently and they have all gotten used to them very quickly (both mum and bub). The time will go quickly, and like Leigh said, she won't remember it.

JLK, not sure what Ted's current weight is, but my DS1 was (and still is) small. I reckon Ted's thighs are almost as thick as his! As long as she is happy and healthy, then I'm sure she's fine.

Hello to everyone else. I hope you are all well. Will post more once we are settled in our new home. Have a good weekend.

Qx

[jlk]

Hey all, how is everyone?

[Leigh26]

Quegs, good luck with the move, hope the boys are good for you while you're busy moving & unpacking etc.

Jlk, I'm good, busy cleaning, we have a house inspection this wk. It's my DD2's bday tomorrow, then wed is lexie's needles & then Thurs is another quick tidy up around the house for the inspection on Fri. DD2 is sick with a cold at the moment, it's a shame coz we wanted to take her swimming tomorrow.

Gotta go, Lexie is hungry. Hope you're all well xxx

[Leigh26]

Quiet in here, everyone must be busy.

Lexie had her 4mth needles today. She did really well and only cried for about 30 seconds. She's a chubby bub & weighs exactly 7kg and is 62.5 cm long. She's doing really well!!

[Cupcake]

Not looking forward to those needles Leigh! Good job Lexie on the minimal tears!!

We're all good hear, Laila is now loving her walker, she cant go anywhere but she loves sitting up playing with a few things on the tray! She can edge backwards thats about it hahaha!

Bit of a personal question, feel free to ignore it, but has anyone had AF return yet? How long should i expect her to stay away?

[Visitor7]

awww, poor bubba. Glad she wasn't too affected by the needles. Great weight!

ammaki - with DD1 & DD2, AF came back at 6 weeks. This time round, I haven't got AF back (YAY!!!!), so, you never know!

[Leigh26]

Ammaki, with DD1 AF returned at 4months, with DD2 I had the implanon implant put in while in hospital but removed 5mths later coz I continuously bled for the whole 5mths (so bled from the moment I gave birth to DD2 til it was taken out 5mths later) and with Lexie AF returned at 2mths & has been on time each month (so have just finished my 3rd AF). I was hoping she'd stay away for longer.

[dusty]

Just a quick check in sorry for me post.
F's had the harness for 2 weeks & seems ok with it. She had her 2nd bath yesterday. We are trying anew settling routine (day 6) with some results but I'm pretty exhausted. F seems happier though. F & I are off to Brissy for a couple of weeks to visit family.
Hope you're all well!
Xx

Thanks for answering ladies She still hasnt returned here, not that im complaining!

Love the new avvy Dusty! Have fun in Bris Im just down the road! Im not sure if youve already said but how long does F need to have the harness on for?

[dusty]

Thanks Amy

We're hoping it's only going to be on for less than 3 months.

AF! Gee I hadn't given her any thought as it's been so long, I hope she stays away a while longer...

[Rachett]

Hey Amy, no period for me either. I wasn't expecting for it to return while Breastfeeding full time? I'm more than happy for it to stay away.

Dusty, great to hear that Freya is adjusting well to the brace. Have a great holiday in brissy.

H slept through last night, 7pm till 4.45am. I'll take that!!

Wow Rach well done, your boobie juice is fantastic!
The longest stretch we've had is 5.5 hours & I was exploding by then LOL.

[Rachett]

LOL I know the feeling Dusty, it can be pretty painful. I also had to pump after feeding him because they were so full!! My breast pump was ready to for this morning just in case he did it for me again but no such luck, I got a lovely smiley 2am wake up from him. Oh well, it's progress.

[Leigh26]

Hi everyone, just popping in for a quick hello. Hope everyone is doing well xxx

[Cupcake]

Hello to you too hehe

We're doing well, we have been rolling up a storm hehe, so cute!! 3 months yesterday which means only 1 months til needles eeekkk

Anyone using cloth i have 3 BBH small covers (Purple & Pink) for sale for $20ono if anyone is interested =)

Hi Everyone! i've read up on a few posts, its great to see everyone is doing well.

to answer the question way back we named our girl L.O.L.A. did that so no one can type it in and find info (IYKWIM). if anyone doesn't remember she has DS and is exclusively bfeeding which is so terrific. she is doing well, slow to put on weight so i think she is just under 5kg. my DD1 was 8kg at this age. anywayz, just letting u guys know its been very busy with appointment after appointment. L has to undergo open heart surgery on 18 nov, so more tests and we have to fly to melb and have to stay at least 10 days, depending on how the surgery goes. its been an emotional rollercoaster, but we are doing ok. melb will b a bit challenging with feeding and pumping etc, but no different to when she was born. gavage in the nose to feed etc.

she is smiling and swatting at her toys which is just great, so her progression is excellent.

i hope everyone has a good xmas break, i don't know when i'll b online next..... bfn xx
