She wakes up screaming NO NO NO NO! Shes really hard to settle then! Her language is coming along really well. Shes picking up new words and is able to mimik too. Shes also esting her limits too.. today i told her off and she came up to me and smacked me on the leg and said...no, dont! Too funny!
    Hope all is well

    Hey Mel,

    Bella is that same! She can say so many words! and her tantrums are coming along nicly! lol! I told her off today and she looked at me and just screamed! and kept screaming! She is also testing her limits (and ours!) she will climb on her chair and then say "Mummy... Get Down Bella!" lol

    she will say back to us what we say to her! Funny... but try not to laugh at her when she is telling me off for telling her off!
    She will run to the back door and yell at the dogs when they bark too!

    Hope eveyone else is well!!

    YAY!! YAY!! YAY!! Big congrats Leigh - awesome news!! So glad everything went smoothly for you and your new little girl!

    Argh, don't even get me started on tantrums - Sienna's are off the hook!!! She does the whole throw herself down on the floor, kicking and crying - joy, joy!! I'm getting much better at ignoring the naughty tantrums (ie, not getting what she wants) and differentiating them from the frustration tantrums (ie, can't get two blocks to join together etc), so that's helping a bit.

    Her talking has been increasing amazingly!! She can sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, and her own interpretation of the alphabet, and she's incredibly bossy: "I do it" "Mummy eat this" "Daddy open the door please" "Chino (our dog) be quiet!!" - she's so cute!!

    She's just finishing off her anti-biotics for two middle ear infections and slight tonsilitis - poor little thing, she's such a trooper when she's sick, but it's so lovely to have our happy healthy little girl back again.


    So in short, we're all keeping well, no major dramas!

    Take care lovelies xx

    Hi girls,

    hope you're all well. We're still in hospital, possibly going home this when DH finishes work, if not should be tomorrow. I've still got my staples/stitches in & they'll probably come out tomorrow so it might be worth me staying one more night, plus in here I've only got one child to look after & no cooking or cleaning.

    We decided to name our bub Lexie Charlotte. She is so cute, I love her to bits. So tiny & not much hair, pretty much bald lol.

    Lara has totally rejected me since I've been in here. She won't come near me or even look at me. She's usually such a mummys girl, hope she warms up to me once I'm home. She has shown some positive interest in Lexie which is good, although she did whack her on the head yesterday. Cadence absolutely loves her though. She's a real mother hen & takes over.

    Kate- any news on a bfp?

    Gotta go, sorry for the lack of personals. I'll pop in again tomorrow or the next day.

    Leigh... Congratulations on the arrival of Lexie Charlotte.... a beautiful name. Hope youre feeling well, enjoy the rest! Good to hear you can possible go home tomorrow too. Hows the feeding going... are you able to b/f? Sorry to hear Lara is not coping well. Hopefully by the time you get home she will settle down a bit. It breaks you heart doesnt it! I remember Olivia not coping so well with Becs arrival... very trying times...especially with smaking a newborn on the head!!! Luckily Cadence is a bit older and is able to help you with Lexie and or Lara!

    We are all good here. Not a lot to tell really! Take care

    Hey Mel,

    I'm actually able to go this arv now. Just waiting for DH to finish work which shouldn't be too much longer. I'm breast feeding. Before my milk came in I was breast feeding plus giving a formula top up, recommended by the lactation consultant coz she was so little & early but now my milk is in I'm fully breastfeeding, so far so good.

    Excited to be going home but a bit nervous too. Hope we have a good night!
