Weird. Could be that cold you were thinking. She might have a sore throat or something? Not that there's anything more you can do for her than you're already doing. It sucks, particularly when you weren't feeling too crash hot either. Sending her some sleepy vibes for tonight.
P scared me this morning by only sleeping for 10 minutes for her first nap of the day! I was soooo unimpressed - she usually does 3 or 4 40min jobbies, depending on what time she wakes for the day. But the second nap she slept for 1.5 hours. Hasn't done that for probably over a month now. I swear, I didn't know what to do with myself! I should've gotten on the wii fit (am trying to lose some weight atm) but decided that after doing dishes, cleaning bathroom and cleaning and vacuuming loungeroom this morning that I deserved a sit down with a book... and a scone with jam, LOL. So, she's chatting away happily to me atm while I type and we'll go collect Natty soon.
I'm so unsure of how to transport Phoebe when we come down to Melbs. I wish I had've given myself the option of check-in luggage, as I don't think I'm going to manage carrying her around in the baby bjorn for a whole day when she's a month's heavier than she is now. I am really hoping we can take the MacPac now - hoping she develops a bit more strength over the next few weeks.
wish i could offer you a pram or something but i won't see you til the park - and i'm sure you'll need it well before then! hope you can work something out
Amy - you should be able to add check in luggage at the airport, I think its normally about $20 though if u need to, check with jetstar if you change your mind. Anyway, We can always swap Phoebs and Bailey around if Phoebe is getting a bit heavy as Bailz now likes the carrier we have as he gets a great view of the world
haven't had a tear from E all day - woke up in a fantastic mood, has fed and slept and played beautifully. i just had to relocate her in a big hurry cos my bladder was about to explode - and she woke up smiling at me
Hi everyone! How are we?
Just quickly cos I have to get ready for my strength training class tonight.
We started Allira on solids yesterday after she helped herself to some of our watermelon. LOL We were going to wait it out until 6 months exactly, but that's less than 2 weeks away anyway, and she just devoured the watermelon. She's chewing it to peices, sucking the juice out and just having an absolute ball! Give it a few more days, and then might skip onto broccoli or something along those lines.
Naomi - Bailey is adorable. What gorgeous pictures!
BG - I hope E is ok. Allira has had a realy dry weird cough for a little while so it's off ot the docs this week if we can get in. She also has eczema and I'm a little worried it might be asthma.
Amy - Could you buy a cheap umbrella stroller? Even from an op shop in melbs or something?
Sending lots of sleep vibes ( but keeping some for myself!!) Allira hasn't slept properly since she was 4 months old. Were woken up 5-6 times a night every night. Getting used to it now( that will also explain my absence a little). Cheeky kids I tell ya!
She's going to take off any day now Shes so close to commando crawling it's not funny. She rolls over and over and over.... I can see Lachie going nuts soon when she reaches his stuff.
Aw, Naomi, those pics are sooooo gorgeous! Love the big one - I can just imagine the laughter along with it.
Thanks for that - I will ring up Jetstar and see what I can wrangle.
BG: Glad to hear E is on the up!
Nicky: How wonderful that Allira got right into the solids! Hilarious that she helped herself, LOL. Scary about the crawling... She's too little!
I am sure I can work something out - if she can sit in an umbrella stroller then she'd be fine in the macpac. I can strap her in pretty securely, I just want to make sure she doesn't slump in there too much, KWIM? She's gotten a fair bit stronger over the last 2-ish weeks, so I reckon she'll probably be ok.
Nicky - sending sleep vibes your way mate Zzzzzzzzz
Bailey just rolled from belly to back during nappy free time - what a legend!! He then cacked himself as he thought it was so funny. His gross motor skills have really improved in the last week, we have been doing lots of exercises with him and he lifts his head up really well too, I'm so happy to see these developments, he's catching up!
Had our six month injections today - the Nurse told us not to organise Bailey's 12 months ones until AFTER his birthday party as they can get a little sick from one of the 12 month ones. So a handy hint - who wants a sick baby on their first birthday party - no thanks!!
E has done the roll thing, and now kinda seems to think she doesn't need to anymore lol - lazy rat
not really having a great time. was diagnosed with CFS early last year and have done pretty well at keeping it manage until recently. started to feel it creeping up again a couple of weeks ago - and it's gotten progressively worse to the point where i'm constantly sore and tired - the tired i can cope with - the sore, not so much. i think E is picking up on it cos she's been a right rat to get to sleep the last couple of nights - flat out refusing sleep and when she does crash, waking and crying as soon as we move her to her own bed. i'm thinking growth spurt, teeth or starting the wonder week thing early - but it's seriously doing my head in! she is mummy's girl until about 4 in the arvo - whether daddy is home or not - and then all she wants is him - or milk no matter how recently she has been drinking. after dinner, she's all over the place and no matter what time we go to bed, she's refusing to sleep until well after midnight! she's waking after only a couple of hours and feeding again, then having maybe four or five hours - she hasn't done that since she was a newborn! its' really knocking me about and my body is aching soooo bad! the last two days are the only days it's really gotten to me, so i'm hoping it's short lived! sigh
