sleepy sounds like scarlet lol, she went down bout 7pm, woke at 11ish, then again at 2.30 then 5.30ish, wasnt to bad she was easier to get to sleep last night so i slept in between and they were good sleeps lol
yea i put hayley to bed at 8.30 and then i went to sleep to so it helped having the extra bit, troy will be home at 4ish from coast so maybe he can have her tonight and ill have full night sleep,
although it was nice cause i like to kiss her and talk to her and cuddle lol.
eve though im tired i no she cant help waking for feeds, she will grow out of it,
dont u love watching them sleep during day making funny faces and grinning
i want to get her a playmat and give her time to play, and also give her belly time to so she gets use to it
i no what u mean, we have wanted another for so long, so pretty much you no hayley is 6.5 so at least 4.5yrs of that of wanting one and it not happening,
i went on diet shakes (optifast) lost 21kgs in 5 months, ( i didnt stick to just shakes all time i ate to at times when i wanted ) so took longer, and started to feel sick on them and found out i was pregnant, i was in shock, after trying so long, i wasnt expecting it i had given up and thought it wasnt goin to happen, i went threw so many emotions and downers and worry then when my fluid got high i was more worried,
but now im so happy to have 2 little girls, so sweet, i still have 20kgs to lose to get to goal weight, im glad when i got home on scales to see im back down to my pre preg weight lol i was alittle worried cause i gained 14kgs pregnant lol but lost it all pretty much straight away as i did have alot of fluid lol
anyways sorry to ramble but im just so happy things have worked out for all of us, and how lucky we all are to have our little bundles in our arms
The farts crack me up, she did one so loud this morning while DH was holding her I blamed him LOL
Traylee - it's amazing the journey everyone has had to be here with their littlies. A huge congrats on being back to your pre-preg weight. I was happy when I made it back too coz the doc's had been onto me about not putting too much weight on, I had put on 8kgs going by weigh in they did when I went into hospital , now just got the last 10-12kgs to go.
ahhh got cranky baby, the arsenic hours are starting early tonight by the sounds of it
I'm sorry, but I just have to get something off my chest! I am really annoyed by a certain ad on tv. From KFC. The ad where the husband and wife are driving thru the drive thru, and she's in labour....as if you'd be going thru a drive thru when you're in that much pain! And she doesn't even look like she's in pain....I know because I was driving to the hospital having contractions! And I wasn't smiling, I was holding the handle above the window grunting with each contraction!
lol its a funny add, but yea pretty dumb,
i was in car with my mum when she was in labour with my brother when i was 15, and she was holding onto handle to as she couldnt sit properly,
i me being me, said oh mum its ok think about sex it will cheer u up, it didnt lol she was a bit cranky i said that, but i wasnt thinking thats what got her into the mess in first place
was funny though
but yea pretty silly add lol
We arrived home last night, but I have been so busy, haven't had a chance to get on here.
Hadley travelled so well in the car!!! We are so lucky! H is a great sleeper, feeder and traveller, as is (and was as a baby) T. So my grandad got to meet our newest arrival which I am so glad! We got photos of him with H and then a few with both H and T, but he doesn't handle T running around and fidgetting, so we made it quick. So sad to see my strong, independant grandad so sick and so out of it from the pain killers he's on. I can see that the end is near and that just breaks my heart, I've always been quite close to him, but he is 73 so he's had a good life (not that it makes it any easier).
Anyways enough of my rambling. Hope you don't mind but I'm just going to start fresh from here rather than trying to catch up on everything. I hope all the littlies are settling in nicely and mummies are recovering well!
Pish - Good that you are home and had a fun and safe trip! I hope your grandad surprises everyone and holds on for longer.
Sleepy - I am with you on the ad, all I wanted was to be out of the car!
Traylee - Did the 2nd night get any easier?
to Erin, Tina, Socks, Phoenix, Pmccask and BW. Hope you are all doing well and getting some sleep.
P is now in 000 bodysuits! She is too long for 0000. I am a little sad but happy she is growing so well. We are 3 weeks old today and just about to go into infant nappies! Hope everyone has a good day, I have to go to a physio class at the hosp and then do groceries. I'm not looking forward to that it has been about a month since we did a proper shop so it will cost a fortune!
marni, yea second night was better ish, troy had her last night and i said dont bring her in to me till after 7 lol, i was so nice after his 4.5hr drive home lol
scarlet is in 000 to, she was fron start but they were bit long and long in arms, but good length for her now, still the arms bit long, but not as bad as they were, i found the 0000 squashed her legs up to much lol
WOW, I can't believe your bubs are so big!!! I have just got H in 0000 she has been in 00000 as the 0000 were just too big!!
The comm nurse is coming at 11:30, really looking forward to seeing how much weight my little girl has put on. She has such cute chubby cheeks and they've got bigger so I know she's definately putting on weight!
We had a great night last night, only 1 feed through the night, not sure what time it was as we don't have a clock in our room. We're co-sleeping which I honestly never thought I'd even consider!!! She has had a snotty nose causing her to choke and throw up so I have been way too scared to have her on her back in another room. I must say it makes night feeds the best! I just have to pull out the boob, put her on then have a nap until she comes off, quickly change her bum, then swap boobs. She falls asleep on the second boob and we both have a solid sleep until the next feed! So much better than getting up and down several times a night!
scarlet is only in the wondersuits in 000, some other stuff in 000 doesnt fit swims on her, so i could say some stuff would be 0000 but yea the bonds wondersuits or ones from like bigw etc fit in 000
Our appoinment went really well with the nurse. H has put on 520g since birth and grown 4cm!!! I knew I was a good cow but didn't expect quite that much gain! I couldn't be happier, T didn't get back to her birth weight for weeks, she just kept loosing so great to hear things are different this time.
Pish - Welcome back, glad to hear you had a good time and your granddad got to meet his new grand daughter. A is still in 0000 clothes, she is in 000 wondersuits & singlet suits even though they are a bit big on her plus her cloth bum fills them out a bit. 0000 wondersuits seem to be short in the legs for her and she's still not even 51cm yet and only 3.6kgs at 4 weeks.
BW - I pulled out some 000 outfits I can't wait to put on her.......they went back in the drawer for a few more weeks.
Sleepy - I haven't seen teh KFC ad but now I want to lol.
We had our home visit by nurse today, A only put on 140gms in 8 days (she put on 300grams the week before) so I have to add an extra feed in and might add in some expressing and see how she goes next week. I had a feeling my milk was slowing down for some reason, I found a milkshake in a breast feeding thread on here with Activite & skim milk powder so will give that a go from tomorrow, I've just tried Activite in milk and it's yummy. There are also some lactation cookies I've been looking at making, just got to find the motivation.
Apart from that she's grown nearly 3cms from birth and her head circumference has grown by 3.5cms and nurse was really happy with her and apparently those "wind" smiles I've been getting past day or two are actually real smiles She also had a refer on her hearing test but passed the repeat test today with flying colours so that was a relief for us.
A big hello to everyone, off to feed little miss. I can't quite multitask that yet and I have to get all comfy and in position on sofa LOL
i dont no about the whole smile with wnd pain, scarlet smiles alot in her sleep and grins, and its so cute,
i dont think its wind, soemtimes now when i touch her cheek and try tickle she grins but not as much as in her sleep, she does the widest biggest grins today while falling asleep and i cracked up laughing it was so cute.
im gonna take bubs to get weighed next week maybe and see how much she has gained
