Hi Ubbs - definitely have a read, might not be for you but you might find it really good too. They have a series of books leading right up to toddler age etc. I'm ready for the next one, they talk about introducing solids. Babywise is basically all about in their words "giving your child the gift of sleep". Good luck matey!
Hi Kymmy - I'm 160 cms hee hee - that's 5'3". 50kgs is definitely on the lower end of the scale for that height but everyone has different bone structure as well. When I did Weight Watchers my ideal weight for my height was between 52kg and 64kgs - 64 kgs being the top end, 52kg the lower end - I ended up 56kgs but found that hard to maintain so was generally comfortable around 57/58 kgs. Hence why I feel and look so huge now at 66 kgs! You must just be blessed with a naturally small frame, lucky you! My sister dug out pics of her son when he was born as he turned 20 last week - I was 16 when he was born and I was so thin, probably too thin - apparently everyone else thought so but I don't remember feeling thin - I was 48 kgs back then and stayed that way until I was about 21 I think. The weight crept on as I got older ha ha. I had tiny little arms and now I have big tuckshop lady arms - go figure!
Well, I'm off to see my 91 year old grandma in her aged care home today, I haven't seen her for 12 months and I'm really nervous. Mum's up and my sisters are also coming but while I want to see her I'm kind of dreading it. I struggle with the fact that she might not know who we are but like everyone has said, old people love babies so it doesn't matter. Will be weird but I'm glad I'm going, Amelia will at least have met her and vice versa. I'm taking a little frame with Amelia's pic in it for her, she'll probably wake up everyday and wonder who the hell she is but I thought it was nice anyway, it was her birthday on Saturday. Mum said when she called her to tell her she was coming to visit she thinks she knew who she was so hopefully she's having a good week and not a bad one. Will let you know how it goes!
Have a great day everyone. xx
