Sorry I haven't been in for a while, I was getting a bit too involved with BB and forced myself to take a break. That and I was starting to get a bit down because everyone elses babies seemed to be going great guns and Isaac was, well, not.
In the last month however he's had a developmental explosion. He's learnt to crawl, pull himself up to his knees on furnitire (he's trying very hard to get to his feet but despite using every muscle in his body, he's just not budging lol), he waves hello consistantly and sometimes goodbye, walk when being held up and led, and if I hold him up he can walk while holding his ride on car, eat finger food (when he feels like it / can be bothered ), worked out object permanence, is alot more talkative and I'm sure there's more I missed. It's like a light has switched on in his head.
His sleep has regressed quite a bit but with all that he's learning I'm not really suprised. He's waking 2 or 3 times a night. Hopefully he goes back to sleeping through soon I'm going a bit loopy with lack of sleep and he wakes up at between 4:30 and 5:30 each morning, most days he'll go back to sleep but not always.It's soo draining.
Daysleeps are still quite bad, I have to feed him to sleep for each nap, I try to get him to self settle but he just plays until he's overtired then cries until I pick him up.
I'll try to get in here a bit more often, I find that once I get on the computer I don't get off and time really gets away from me. I'm thinking of limiting my PC time to after Isaac's gone to bed for the night but then of course DF wants all my attention and gets shirty with me for being on the computer.
DF is jobless at the moment, he's driving me a bit nuts, as much as I love him I don't want him hanging offme all day everyday. I really feel like I have 2 children except one of them is 23 yo. Any suggestions on how I can get him to be a bit more pro-active with getting a job without hurting his feelings? I don't want him to feel like I dont want him around, because I do. I just don't want him around ALL the time. It probably wouldn't bother me so much if he didn't want as much if not more attention than DS. It's like he's constantantly competing with DS. Maybe he's feeling a bit left out IDK. Anyway enough of my problems lol.
How are you and your families going? I'd love a quick update if you feel like it.
Take care xx
