Best of luck Kym!

Hope the trip to Canberra went well Natty

I spent the whole day holding Mr I or at least thats what it felt like. I'd put him down & he'd wake up within 15 mins & the thumb wasn't working, it was Mummy all the way. So I din't get much done today. Maybe tomorrow. I did cut his nails (and managed to not cut his finger, unlike DH yesterday with the Duke https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...ile-angry.html) and I've half cleaned the kitchen. Better get back to it & go to bed.

Sorry Guys!

I had to do a food shop and blah blah blah....

SOOOOOOOO.... I did the test and i don't know what the heck to make of it!!!!! I can see ANOTHER REALLY feint line... I mean REALLY REALLY feint... Like i thought i was imagining it the first 35 times i looked at the test...
SOOOOOOOO.... I grabbed the test out of the bin that i did last week (that was negative) and now IT has a REALLY REALLY feint line too! WHAT THE!????

I think they might be evap lines cos surely they would be darker if i was UTD??? I am seriously confused!!! How common are these evap lines? Surely i wouldn't get three in a row? They were three different brands too!
I will do another one tomorrow morning (cause i bought three at the shop!! hehe) and i'll let you all know AS SOON AS i pee!!!

Love you all!
so so so very confused......

Kym x

GOSH KYMMY!!
LOL!!! I feel like I"M the bloody one taking the test, i'm so excited, hahahahahaha

FWIW, with theo.. the line was SUPER SUPER feint too...

How are you feeling? excited? nervous? :hug:

oh my kymmy! oh im with telly! my heart is pounding as if its me too!

and my line with harper was super faint too and i was about 3 week preg when i tested.
the dr said to me you can get fasle negatives but if there' s a line is positive!

oooohhhhhhh im so excited! and its making me clucky again too!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mine with Archie was super feint too and i would've only been about 3w 4d then.. but these tests are even feinter!!!!!!!!
I don't feel excited or nervous because i don't really think that they are BFPs.. i think they are evap lines... but i do feel knocked up so WHO FLAMIN KNOWS!!!!!!! AHHHHH!!!!!!!!

OK ladies...

I did another one and i think it's ANOTHER evap line... it looks just the same as the others. I did some research last night and they sound like evap lines to me. Even though a couple of them came up straight away there is not really much 'colour' to them, they look more like 'ghost' lines..I'm going to take it as a BFN and i'll retest next week.

Have a good day x x

Hi Girls - I haven't been getting notifications!!!

But....Happy Valentine's Day and Happy Chinese New Year to you all for Sunday, I've been down at our holiday house since Sunday so haven't been on! Well, the Year of the Ox has gone and it's now Year of the Tiger. Along with Amelia I was also born in the Year of the Ox so that was a special year for me....you know what they say girls, "strong as an ox"....I think they also say "stubborn as an ox" hmmmmmm.

Saturday night's babysitting from my nephew was great, she was very content and happy when we got home a couple of hours later. I did laugh though as he didn't change her nappy so she had the heaviest wee nappy on lol........I think he was a bit nervous about that but he fed her a bottle and burped her and played with her. He said she didn't cry at all so that's good. He's a lovel boy and not like most 17 year old boys that I know so I feel very comfortable leaving her with him. Moreso than my nearly 16 year old niece, she freaks the second Amelia drops her bottom lip!

I had a lovely Valentine's Day, Amelia has definitely softened DH, he surprised me with a gold locket bracelet much like the one mum gave Amelia when she was born and I even got a card!!!! Very exciting as he's terrible at buying cards. I was so chuffed. We then headed down to our holiday house for the night, DH had to work on the house so I went and hung out with my mum as she lives in the same town now. It's nice to be able to do that as she misses Amelia a lot, she hasn't been a nana for ages as my sisters are 10 and 7 years older than me so all the other grandids are in their late teens now. Amelia gets spoilt of course ha ha. Mum can't believe how much she's grown in the 2 weeks since she'd seen her, just goes to show how quickly they grow. How sad is it!!!

Anyway, hope you are all well, haven't had time to read everyone's posts yet so will do so and check back on later. I'm off to the city again today to see my boss as he wasn't there when I visited last time. I really can't be bothered but I've told him I would so I will.

I have just seen Kymmy's post, OMGGGGGGGGGG!!!! Kymmy I thought you were kidding that you wanted another baby right now ha ha. Good luck girl!! I'm not game to start trying just yet, we're going to wait until Amelia is between 8 and 12 months old, I don't think I could cope with morning sickness with a little bubby right now and just want to enjoy her for a bit longer. I'm so excited for you though, keep us posted, can't wait to hear!!!!!!!!!!!!! You'll have to be in 2 groups again, pregnancy and our bubby one!

Hugs and kisses to you all and your beautiful bubbies.

Oh i'm not 'trying' Alison! Just not being very careful!!!! Haha! If i'm not PG i'll probably go on the pill until Archie is about 6 months old... It will be fine if I am though, i think DH is a little excited about the possibility!

I'll be back later for persies.....
x

Kymmie love the name change, it would be so exciting if you are I'm planning to wait til 2012 so hunter will be in kindy that's if dh hasn't had the snip, I think if the app comes I might lose it lmao

I got a pendant for my pandora bracket for v day though it was on Monday cos he got too drunk and lost his walt with my pressie at the footy lmao lucky he got it back

mon you're a super mum i tell ya!
4 bubbies and planning a 5th! :clap:
DH wants 5 bubbies too.. but some days i stuggle to manage the two!
But with that said i'll probably never say 'no more'. It would make me sad to think that part of my life was over iykwim.
annyway, i just admire you x

I admire you too Mon.. I am really glad i'm feeling more 'maternal' with Archie than i was with Brit... That sounds awful but i think i was wayyyy too young in sooo many ways when i had her.. i feel ready now. At the moment i'm feeling like i want 6 kids! haha!

I am so happy that my wedding ring fits me now! It is still a bit tight but it is on at least so thats the main thing! Ireally should be doing my washing today as i have LOADS to do but i can't be fagged so i'm at my mums bidding for things on ebay and eating croissants with cream and drinking choc milk! haha! I did go for a walk this morning though.

Archie's body is still really crooked so i am going to take him back to the chiro with me and then maybe to the physio if he needs it. I am really quite worried about it cos it is really noticable when you hold him upright (like on your hip or against your chest). He fully leans to the left which is opposite to the collarbone fracture on the right. Hopefully it is just something that will correct itself. My poor baby!!!

It has been so long since i've done persies, sorry! I can't remember what everyone has said! So i'll do my best!

Alison: My sister lives in Woodridge which is up near Two Rocks. She has a couple of acres up there. We had a great time! DD drove the boat all the way home on the river! She was rapt!
That is great that your nephew is so good with Amelia! It is so cute when guys look after bubbas! My DH's good friend is a single, good lookin fella of 31 who looks after his baby neice on Thuursdays while his sister works and it is so cute to see him looking after her! I think it is great!

Telly: I was just saying to DH that i think it will be so sad when we finally decide to not have anymore kids! I reckon we'll probably end up with about 35 at the rate were going! hahaha!

Natty: OHHH i forgot to write something about an eagle on your FB page!! I should have written "we are not quite sure where the eagle has landed!" haha! Hope you had a good time in Canberra!

Madame: Good on ya for losing the weight! Are you finding WW easy? As you can see i am very serious about losing my weight... with eating croissants with cream and what not! haha! I'm terrible! I could never do something like that.. i need to exercise though! What i hate the most about my body at the moment is my BUM! It used to be perky and round now it is flat and saggy!!!! SO SAD! I'll get it back though... One day...... Right?! haha!

Ubba: Sorry for keeping you in suspense the other night!! You are such a sweetie :hug:
Thanks for your love and support! x

Hello everyone else!!!!!

Well i really should get off my flat and saggy butt (hahahahahahaha) and go home and get some housework done!!!!

I'll be back later on!
x x x

i'm doing the ever so slow upload of photos onto my fb atm, my computer has been playing up.
anyway, i'm debating in my mind whether to put a photo of my little man munching on some boob or not.. Its just a nice photo of him. But i'm can't decide if i really want the world do see it or not, like guys i went to school with :doh: . You can't see nipple or anything, just a bit of skin, its mainly his face.
what do you ladies think? Would you do it?

Personally i wouldn't... although i don't know why really!! I have a really cute one of Archie too but thought i'd better not.... But then again we shouldn't feel bad about it, we should feel proud!!! But i know that some people are 'grossed out' by breastfeeding (weirdos) so dunno Telly!

PS: Still not doing the washing.......

yeah i decided not too
DH said he really doesnt care, but he said how'd i feel if someone came up to me while shopping and had a nice close look (lkike the angle the photo was taken on).

i agreed that i'd feel extremely uncomfortable.

so yep, decided not to!

lol, i'm doing a lot of procrastinating today too kymmy! DD wet the bed during her nap, so i was forced to atleast do that load of washing :wall: hahaha

Hi Girls! I've been a bit slow getting on BB today. I spent all morning what I thought was burning all my belly pics and pics of Amelia (and there's a lot of them) onto disc so I could get them printed at the shop, I want to start doing my pregnancy album and Amelia's baby album which I'm going to scrapbook and I got all the way to the shop and the friggin disc was empty, it didn't work! Was so p'd off! So have to do it all again and go back another day. grrrrr. Guess I should've checked it properly before I left. I went to the OT today as well, Amelia arked up while I was there - typical so the receptionist had to do bog laps up and down the hallway to keep her quiet ha ha - she was due for a sleep so bad timing I guess.

Is anyone else noticing their bubs are sucking on their hands? Amelia constantly has her hands in her mouth and drools everywhere lol.

Best run, got a few things to do before preparing dinner. Sorry for no persies, will check back on later. xx

ali- i print all my photos online-
snapfish.com.au
get them sent to you!
they have specials too

Yep serenity always sucks her thumb

Oh and I'm a year of the ox to hehe

Oh I do snapfish too and also was ebaying today and won two garbage bags of clothes 00-1 for $30 all pumkin patch and target etc hehehehe

I'm the same to sad about the though of no more I need to just get my arse into gear an not be so lazy cos with so many I you don't do washing one day there ends up being a truck load tomorrow.....I've wanted 6 since I was 15 but only got one spare seat in the car and want to pay it off before I upgrade but I pay $45 extra a fn

Hi Madame - thanks for that info on Snapfish, I haven't used them before but am going to have a look now! :p

Hi Mon - you and me are Ebay addicts I think! I bought some dungarees the other day and a little dress, one was brand new without tags, the other second hand - paid $3.50 for one and $5.00 for the other, bargain! Gotta stop spending money though now I'm no longer getting paid!

Hi Ladies!

Gee its been a while for me lol everything is happening so not sure about persies lol...

Kymmy!!! Woohoo I cant wait to see what the next test brings! Yay!

I use snapfish too :)

Telly you can make an album that is purely viewed by ppl you are close to and you can also exclude ppl too just look in the privacy settings. I dont let my sister have access to the album of V because she would give the photos to my mum so I exclude her, sad but handy....I give her some but I dont trust her to respect my wishes. As it is any photos she has been given are on her fb page and I know she is friends with our mum so its just a sneaky way for her to share them. I have only just accepted a friend request from her again after cutting her loose last year.....:rolleyes: So I thought Id just restrict her access...

Went to Canberra to see a great mate, It was pretty emotional, she is a great natural with babies and didnt mind V crying, nursed her, WANTED to hold her when she was crying, gave me a break...I cried with relief and I was so sad to go I really realised how much I miss her...Canberra is really pretty too, at least the bit I saw...We walked along the river and V was perfect so we could have a great big chat :) I was meant to stay 1 night but stayed 2...ahhhh V was good in the car, 4 hours travel time in total with a couple of food, nappy stops...definately worth it for sure..

I got off my butt and joined a mg today problem is it was the last one as all the ladies are going back to work...There were 3 of us new ones and we have kind of been talked into taking it over. Its a free venue and I guess it is only as hard to run as you make it so dammnit! now I have an extra responsibility, althoug its about time I had a reason to do something other that just survive iykwim? Its through Playgroups Australia and already has toys, coffee stuff, venue etc so just have to get a few more members...

Made a massive hybrid vege slice/meatloaf thing today I didnt do it from a recipe so Ill be interested to see if it tastes ok or even cooks properly

Hi everyone!!!! I have missed you all and now Im going to read all the new posts properly

Lovelove xxx Natty

Hello all you lovely ladies!

Wellllllll........I thought i had AF coming as i had a bit of spotting yesterday and early this morning.. then about lunch time i had a big, hard blood clot (sorry TMI!!!) and nothing since! WTF!!!??? Should i still be getting blood clots nearly 11 weeks after PPH? I have had some smaller ones every now and again which i asked the Dr about. She said cos there are lots of 'pockets' up there sometimes blood gets trapped, so wasn't too concerned.
Don't know what to do now.. should probably go see her again i think.

Glad you had a good time in Canberra Natty!

Last night I ordered some prints off Snapfish (after reading your posts about it!!) and it only cost me $11 for 87 prints including postage! They gave me 50 free prints as it was my first order. So i'm pretty happy about that! Thanks ladies!

Gotta go, munchkin is calling!!
x

Hi Kymmy - oh you poor thing, wonder what that is? It's not anything to do with possibly being preggo is it? If not then maybe it is just because you are getting AF and it's all that's there at the moment, if that makes sense lol. I imagine there are lots of pockets and hidey hole's up there ha ha.

I did all my prints at Kmart today, DH said not to do the Snapfish thing as I had 200 photos to print and he thought it would take up all the download to order them....is that true? Anyway, I paid $35.00 for 200 prints so not too bad but not as good as Snapfish...booo. Oh well, now I can start my pregnancy album of my belly shots and Amelia's baby album, I have some gorgeous scrapbooking stuff, there's a cheap scrapbooking shop nearby so went a little crazy in there the other day! :p

ali- i just printed 1580 photos.... on snapfish, took a while to upload but not too long, its also an extra copy on there so youre safe if you lose your photos somehow from your computer- im a bit ocd with that...
i had opted to pick them up from kmart- they do that if u want- as postage was $40
and 1580 cost me $140 or so....sale of 9c prints!

oh and quickly- Harper slept from 9:30 pm till 7 am!!!!!!!!! wooooooo hoooooooooo!
shes such a good girl x

Hi Madame - whoa, I thought I printed heaps lol! I will try Snapfish next time, DH just said that it would use up our download space sending off megs and megs of pics but I didn't really get what he meant by that anyway. Go Harper, that's awesome!!!! Amelia did 10.00 pm to 7.00 am as well last night, hoping for the same tonight but who knows! I find when she is awake more during the day she sleeps longer at night, I think she's had a little extra sleep today than yesterday so we shall see.

How is everyone else going today? :p

Hey all hope everyones well

I'm going through a bad patch at the mo just really feeling sad and low, getting really shirty at jose for no reason and having a really short fuse and getting stressed at the slightest lil thing, I feel so horrid like I just want to break down and cry but I can't....I think it's been set off by serenity waking 2 times a night lately and having mally and niesha come in our bed every night lately too....I'm trying so hard bot to tell jose to f off and move out cos I know this is gonna pass but I feel so horrible cos I've been yelling at the kids more and been so wound up.....here's hoping serenity starts sleeping better again soon I think I might let her cry abit cos it's like she only snacks so I'm not sure if she's really hungry when she wakes or not *sigh*

Glad I could get that out, thanx girls ur the only ones I feel like I can share this with xxxx

Hi Mon - :hug:, vent away, that's what we're here for. I think we all hid low patches don't we, I'm glad we have each other to talk to as well. Serenity might be going through a growth spurt if she's feeding and waking a little more, Amelia did this last week after doing 10 hour nights but the last 2 she's slept 10 again - not sure which is the norm and which is the spurt though. You could try what I did last night, Amelia woke at 5.00 am and instead of feeding her I picked her up, cuddled her for 5 minutes and put the dummy in her mouth and put her back in her cot (her eyes were closed the whole time so I figured she wasn't really ready to wake yet), she went straight back to sleep until almost 8.00 am so all up she slept 10 hours. Not sure if you could try the same? Is she still on formula? I only get a BF in, in the morning feed now with a bottle, the rest of the day is basically bottles as I express in between time and mix in with the final bottle of formula before bed. I can't survive off just breast milk, I'm lucky to express 50/60 mls in a day and that's on a good one, but I figure some is better than none! Hope you feel better soon mate. xx

AFM - did aqua class today and boy am I sore, worked muscles I forgot I had! Amelia loved the first section of the class in the water and went straight to sleep when I put her in her pram. Glad of that because it allowed me to get stuck into the exercise and concentrate on it. The physio who takes the class told me it could take up to 6 months to get rid of all the fluid retention and get my rings back on, at least I know it's not because I'm fat that I can't get them on ha ha - did start to wonder about that!

Best run, DH is down at our holiday house tonight working again so it's just me and the little munchkin, she's asleep so I'm going to chill out while I can! Have a great Friday night girls.

Hi there everyone.....have been away and quite slack not having posted for a while and I've missed out on heaps it seems!!!

Alison - Aqua classes sound good!!! I used to do deep water running before the kids came along and really enjoyed that...it's hard work! Love the new photos of Amelia in her Superwoman shirt and little Elmo swimmers...v cute!

Heavenly - You'll get through it....it's hard when you feel like that though...being tired is the worst thing and there's nothing you can do about it if the kiddies arent sleeping....I was ready to rip Simon's head off the other week cause I had that much to do, I was tired and Abbey was feeding all the time and he wasnt really helping...JD wouldnt shut up and it was doing my head in....I had to go and hit the bed a few times I was that mad at everything...I think I have rage issues!!!

Madame - What's snapfish? Is it a site where you can order your pics online or something? I need to do something like that as I dont get to the shops too often and especially making JD hang around while I try to organise them is a nightmare...Go Harper!! Hope she keeps it up for you....

Kymmy - How exciting if you are UTD!!! Keep us posted...I was feeling excited when I was reading all your posts that I had missed!!

Natty - Glad you had a great time in Canberra....it's nice seeing old mates isnt it....glad V is being such a good girl for you....

AFM - the children are beckoning....GOD, why cant I get 5 min's to myself to write on this thing without being interuppted....arrrrrrrggggghhhhh....doing my head in!!!! Abbey has been sleeping mostly pretty well except for the last 2 nights getting up at about 3am....I fell asleep on the lounge with her still feeding on me this morning and woke up at 6am with the sorest neck....will have to try and stay awake so I can make it back to bed....

She went 10 days between woopsies the other day...I was starting to get worried so thank god she did it finally....I was on poo patrol constantly waiting for her to do it....

My best friend is having her 30th party next Sat night and I really want a drink but it's not worth giving up BF for just to get tanked for 1 night....what are the rules with BF and having a drink? How long do I have to not feed for? I dont have a pump anymore to express either so I dont want my supply to drop if I dont feed her for 24 hours or something like that....

Talk soon....great to hear that everyone is well.

xoxox

Hi Shayna,
Im pretty sure the rules for drinking and BF is 1 drink every hour. There is a thread about it on here somewhere I will try and find it.

Hi Shayna, great to hear from you! :p I wouldn't worry about the "rage" issues, I think we all have those tucked away and having a baby certainly brings it out on occasion. Better to take it out on the bed than someone's head lol. Thanks for your lovely comments on Amelia's latest pics, I do go a bit crazy with the camera don't I! DH is big on lots of pics as his mum didn't take many when he was little so he has hardly any of him, sad really. The Supergirl t-shirt and Elmo bather were from Target. I actually bought the Elmo bathers before she was even born cause they were so cute - they didn't have boy ones at the time....hmm maybe I knew something after all, although I did think I was having a girl, just had a feeling ha ha. The supergirl t-shirt I found recently, have a look, it's so cute as it has pink sequins on it, I'm hopeless, every time I see something cute I get it. Doing the albums will stop me from going to the shops to buy stuff!!! (DH hopes lol). Snapfish is an online printing site, you can either have them sent to you or arrange to pick them up from KMart - it's cheaper than going to the shop definitely - I didn't do it because I had megs of pics to upload so went in instead. Give it a go though, you just sign up (for free) and away you go, you can create photobooks, cards, all sorts, it's fun. Glad Abbey is doing so well, she's so cute. I'm not much of a drinker so don't know a lot about the drinking/bf'ing debate but a friend of mine who likes her wine said that it's about 1.5/2 hours for every drink, but don't quote me on that.

AFM - had another great night, Amelia was knackered after swimming yesterday so slept most of the arvo so I assumed she'd wake up during the night. She fed at 6.30 pm and then slept through her next feed, I ended up sitting up watching the Olympics and next thing it's 10.30 pm so I hesitantly woke her and fed her - not as much as usual and she went straight back to sleep and slept until 8.00 am! She is taking bigger bottles now (I BF first feed with a formula top up and then the rest of the day is bottles with expressing in between and the last feed I put the expressed milk in the bottle) - this is how it works for me with my crappy milk supply but I'm getting there and persevering! Anyway, she has started feeding every 3.5 to 4 hours now rather than 3 so she some days drops a feed from 6 to 5, anyone else's bubs doing only 5 feeds a day now? I assume it's ok and just go with what she wants really, I try not to wake her anymore for feeds but I had to last night as she slept through so would've only had 4 feeds otherwise.

Gosh I waffled on again.....time for breakfast ha ha.

So I couldnt find the alcohol/BF thread but I did come accross the recipe for cookies that increase milk supply http://Lactation Cookies Recipe

Check on the ABA website for alcohol and breastfeeding

Hope you are all well. Ruby still isnt sleeping and I have started my online course - arrrghhh what am I thinking. Its ok I will get through it :)

Hi Girls - I just checked out the ABA website and it says as a general rule it's 2 hours for every standard drink. Have a look Shayna, they have some good info on there including a table that shows weight per drink and how many hours for it to be cleared from your milk supply, it's quite interesting. :p

Hi everyone - I'm new to this site.
I have a 3month old son Logan and a two and a half year old son Ethan.
I'm having a few dramas with Logan's eating and sleeping at the mo and thought that some of you might be able to give me some advice.
I tried to breastfeed but unfortunately he was so reluxy that he would just bring up everything after a feed and he was hungry again but I had no milk left to give him. He's now on a thickend formular which has helped so much with the reflux but I'm concerned by how much he wants and how often. I try to feed him four hourly during the day but he starts crying for a feed from 3hours. Last night he woke at 4am, had a full 180ml and was still hungry. He then took a further 60ml??? He completely finishes every bottle. I've tried offering cooled boiled water but he's not interested.....
He also suffered from colic and although it seems to have passed he's gotten used to being back patted alot to help comfort him and bring up the wind now he wont even try to self settle :(
As I also have Ethan I'm a bit reluctant to let Logan really cry at night - I don't think I could handle both of them awake at 4am!!!
Logan is a tummy sleeper - apparently refluxy babies do prefer this as it stops the stomach valve from opening back up but I would love to get him to sleep on his back. I have tried a few times but he will only sleep for about 20-30mins. He fights being swaddled....
Thank you so much for letting me share this with you all - any help would be muchly appreciated.

Chrissie

Hi Chrissie - welcome to our wonderful thread, everyone on here are so great, hope you'll stick around! Congrats on your two little boys, lovely names! My girl Amelia is my first, she's turning 12 weeks on Monday, she too is mostly formula fed due to low milk supply on my behalf from about 4 weeks of age. She was having boob and then 125ml formula top ups but I'm now only giving her a boob feed for the first morning feed but she now takes 150 mls with that, then during the day she has bottle only (I express in between) and she will easily take 160/170 mls, sometimes more! Her last feed of the night she has a mixture of whatever I've managed to express which is never any more than 60 mls if I'm lucky and formula. She has just the last few days gone from 3 hourly feed to 3.5 to 4 hourly but some times it's only 3 still. I'd say and I'm no expert being my first but Logan is probably going through his 12 week growth spurt so is wanting more, I think Amelia is heading in that direction too as this morning she grizzled for more after her first feed of boob and 160mls of formula! Yesterday she had 160mls and then another 60mls so I think we're in the same boat! Sounds very normal to me mate. One of my friends has a girl 3 weeks older than mine and she is drinking 240mls at a sitting so I think every bub has a different appetite! :p I figure if they over feed they'll just throw it up, Amelia isn't a spewy baby so when she has too much it just comes back out. I'd just give him a little extra and see how he goes, he won't sleep if he's hungry and I've heard you can't overfeed a bub so don't worry you're doing great! How are you finding it with a bub and a 2.5 year old? We're looking at having number 2 close together as I'm 37 this year.

Anyway, hope that has helped at least a little and we see you on here again, everyone is so nice and helpful, a lot of us went through our pregnancies together as well so we're all like good friends even though we haven't met lol. It's just nice to talk to others who understand and you can go away feeling normal again! xx

Thank you so much Alison

I was so upset on Thursday - I took Logan to the doctors as he's still got blocked tear ducks and I asked the GP about the feeding... He made me feel so bad. He told me that my baby was over weight and that babies do cry for other reasons other than being hungry :shakehead:
I phoned my health nurse when I got home and she told me not to stress - Logan is 6kg now which is exactly on the 50 percentile for a three month old boy and although babies do cry for other reasons if you've eliminated the other reasons and he's still crying he's hungry....

Where about's in Perth are you?
