Hi MissMagpie - we must have been posting at the same time, lovely to hear from you. OMG re your nephew, you most definitely did the right thing, poor boy he can't live like that. There would be lots of foster carers who could give him a better chance at life, I have friends who do foster caring and they see things like that all the time, it's just so sad. Keep us posted with what happens. Now I have a child I just can't fathom having my child living in squallor so to speak, not that she can help it I know but you know what I mean. Lucky he has you. As for Trent, is he going through a growth spurt as that's what Amelia did the other week after sleeping 6 hours she went back to 3. She's back to 6/7 again now thank goodness, I don't demand feed though, never have really, I do parent led feeding which put her into a routine from the beginning, doesn't work for everyone but it did for us.....well so far so good. Keep at it, he will get there. I find Amelia only cat naps during the day now so I get nothing done, can't win!
yay on the weight lose and guess what ive found it lol i swear ive gained 5 kg after xmas and now struggle with the sz 12 jeans i wannna cry hading back at night to the gym wen school starts .
MM thats horrible bout your nephew hes lucky to have you!!!!
Alison serenity just went through a patch like that but shes back to 7hrs a night to we went to like 4-5 times a night grrrr
im hot and tired and fat lol and have a massive pile of dishes trying to work up the energy serenity is awake heaps durin the day so it gets tricky do do anything
Hi Mon - you are not fat silly! If it's any consolation I feel fat too and have 7 kgs to lose, can't wear any of my skirts and they're mostly size 12's, just can't get the zip all the way up thanks to this flabby guts!!! Grrrrrrr.
Hi Kymmy - what is it with the 7kgs thing, seems like the magic (or crappy) number! I haven't even attempted to wear any jeans let alone bigger ones, too depressing. I've been wearing my maternity skirts or babydoll dresses only, this gut is hideous, not to mention my thighs, they are carrying a few extra kgs themselves! Gosh having a baby takes its toll on your body, I thought I looked good while pregnant, I must have been blinded by excitement ha ha!
Oh and I went to Toys R Us today, they didn't have any of the Bebe prams like yours at all. Baby on a Budget want $600+ for the Steelcraft Strider. I think I'll have to stick to the one I have, unless I can win the one on Ebay but it's the only one in Perth and someone's already bidding, grrrr.
I have been MIA cause I broke the charger to my laptop and of course it wenr flat. My sister has lent me her charger for a few days so I am back!
I have just finished reading through the last 3 pages of posts, alot to read......
Ruby has still been hard to keep asleep at night, I have been feeding her anywhere from 10.30pm-12am hoping she will stay asleep all night but she still wakes after 3 hours. I have just been sticking her dummy in until about 5.30am but it is just as draining getting up to do that. If I get her up and feed her during the night, then she wakes up fully - I have watched the American morning shows for the last couple of mornings.... She is quite happy sitting in her bouncer watching the tv so I can grab 40 winks on the couch, but Id rather be in bed. Other than her sleeping issues everything is going well. At her last weigh (last week) she weighted 5.3kg so she's deffinately not deprived in the food department lol.
I took DS to get his 4yo needles last night, poor thing cried but he was so brave. He was instantly fine when I said we would get an ice cream from maccas on the way home, boys and food Ruby is getting hers next Friday.
I am taking DD to pick up her school books today so I will be busy covering them with contact paper today - oh the joys! Wouldnt mind a sleep at some stage today but I dont think that will happen. I have to hang around for our rental inspection at 11 then take DS to his speech appointment at 2.30pm. We'll see, I might have a snooze on the couch now while both my girls are in bed, DS is up but he's happy watching tv.
