Leigh... i didnt want her in the bed! Really I was happy for her to stay in the confines of the cot. Last night had me in tears. Olivia was trying so hard to help but was making it worse! They share the room so Olivia didnt get to sleep til 9pm. Bec took 45 minutes to get to sleep and all i heard was Liv saying its ok becca, go to sleep.
She stayed in her room until 530, then came into bed with us. Not too bad for the first night. Lets see how her day sleep goes!
Enjoy your wedding. Pitty I wasnt closer coz I would have come shopping with you! Do you have any pics of you baby?
Anyway must go.... I have a room full of guys who slept on the lounge coz dh went out with them to the football...then the pub last night and didnt get home til 1am.
Am so happy for you Kate. Hope it all goes well for you this time. Its hard not to stress though. Good sign youre getting m/s!
The bed situation is going to just have to test my patience. It had to happen sooner or later... She must have ben tired today coz she had no problems with going tobed for her arvo nap. Shes still in there! I suppose its better now than having to deal with a newborn as well. I just need to breath and am hoping that dh will be home more often to be supportive while I have my meltdowns!!! DH has decided to stand down from his SES position because he can see the girls growing so quickly and doesnt want to miss it. He also said he realises how much work it is for me and how much more work there will be with #3 due. I was so happy to hear that from him as I was expecting him to take up another hobby when this new one comes along... his way of escape is what i was thinking. Its really nice to feel supported in this journey.
Anyway, just kicking back with dd1 watching ice age 3... again! Nice to snuggle on the couch in the cold!
Kate - congratulations hun, I am so happy & excited for you! Sending you lots of sticky vibes!!!
Mel - glad to hear Bec has been ok in her bed. Hopefully it will stay that way for you. I wish my DH was around more to help me. He's home most days but goes to work around 4.30pm & finishes after midnight. That's my busiest time with bathing, cooking dinner & getting kids to bed etc. So when Lara goes into a bed I will have to deal with her on my own. He has Friday & Saturday nights off but plays indoor cricket on Friday nights so isn't home then either & this Saturday he has to work an extra shift. Coz he finishes work after midnight he doesn't come to bed until 2am, sometimes later & sleeps in until around 10.30am, it drives me nuts most of the time. I'd love him to get a new job. I bottle fed Lara & it wasn't too bad coz he'd do the middle of the night feeds for me but coz I'm breastfeeding Lexie I have to do all the feeds. I haven't gotten around to doing photos yet but if you'd like to pm me your mobile I can send you a photo.
