Thanks MM, no its not your eyes playing tricks on you. This pic is from when V was in hospital (the last day of her stay) and she had the last lot of tubes removed from her nose. The mark on her nose was from the tubes that were put done her nose when she was in induced coma. Also from when they kept bagging and sucking trying to get things off her chest. It left a scar, she was so sore for a while after that too and still not fussed on anyone near her nose. Hopefuly it will fade heaps with time. It is better now than that pic tho.
I hope Mia gets better soon hun, sending get well vibes her way. hugs
It is very quiet in here at the moment. I don't really have much news. Just popping in to see how you are all doing.
Lara has become really clingy and sooky lately. Constantly wanting me to hold her. Screams if I put her down. I don't want to get her in the habit of being held all the time, plus I'd never get anything done. People must've thought I was murdering her last night the way she was screaming and carrying on while I was trying to cook dinner. She lays on the floor and chucks the biggest tantrums already. Jeez I'd hate to see her hit the terrible 2's.
She is also going through a phase of playing in the toilet = splashing around in the water, it is soooo gross. We have to keep the door shut all the time otherwise she heads straight in there. DD1 sometimes forgets to close it and that's when she gets in there. Are any other bubs doing this? DD1 never did it but my neice and nephew did too.
She still isn't walking full time yet but I don't mind, DD1 never did until 14 months so Lara will probably be the same.
Hi everyone
Leigh - Olive loves the loo too and we always keep the door shut or she's straight in there. She follows me in and will even get toilet paper for me and imitate the sound of me weeing. Because of this i'm going to get a potty soon and just sit her on it whenever I go.
Olive also chucks a pretty good tanty but in general she is so good.
I also may have found out why she hasn't put on any weight was so sick a few weeks ago and why I have been feeling unwell for a couple of months. She has tested positive to salmonella again which mean she probably never got rid of it last time or we keep reinfecting eachother. So anyway we are on probiotics for a month and will be retested after that. I was meant to get Olive weighed again next week to see if she has gained weight but I might have to work so will ring clincic and see if I still need to.
Olive says 'Hello' to anything and everything that moves and is loving going to the pool atm.
Hollye - Hope Mia gets better soon.
Not much else to report. 4 weeks until my 3wks off for xmas, yeah! And i've only got 2 more pressies to buy.
Oh I keep getting hacked on facebook, this happened to anyone else???
CW - Bugger on the salmonella again but at least you know what it is now. I have so many xmas presents to buy still. What is everyone getting for their bubs? I still need to get stuff for Lara. How do you know your facebook is being hacked? Not sure if its coz of my facebook or not but my hotmail keeps sending out spam email to everyone in my email contact list and then every name in my contact list was deleted.....very annoying!
The reason I think i've been hacked is that i've had to change my password 3 times in a week and now i've been barred again. It's really starting to PMO. It's like i've been barred from my own life and it's pretty scary.
hj - Olive has actually been a good girl and slept through twice this week but in general still wakes at least once a night and even when she does sleep through it's usually only until 4:30am then she has a bottle and goes back to sleep until 6:30-7:30 which is pretty good seeing as I don't want to be fully awake before 6.
Olive is still having around 3-4 200ml bottles per day.
CW - that is really scary!
Phew B is still having 3-4 bottles a day also, it was mentioned maybe i should cut out her night time one and than start cutting the bottles out all together - i dont think im ready to cut her night time bottle out - not sure if she is either! - her sleep however..... no comment - its despressing!
Mia had another doc appoitnment. Both ears still severly infected. Shes having a chest xray in the morning and more docs. Poor little poppet just cant win..
HJ - Mia has 2 bottles a day, one in the morning, one at night. planning on cutting out her morning one soon and giving it to her in her cup with her breakfast.
Hmmm maybe i should look at cutting them back to just morning and night - she never really asks for them during the day i just give them to her as force of habit i guess!
sometimes she drinks it all but most of the time she dosent!
Starry - It was when I used DH's laptop is when all the funny stuff happened to my hotmail. I've been telling him for ages that I reckon his computer was a bit dodgy and had viruses but he couldnt be told so I downloaded a better virus protector on to his.
Hollye - Hope everything goes ok with Mia's xray. Poor little bub.
HJ - Lara has 2 - 3 bottles a day. One in the morning, one early afternoon and one before bed. Although most days she only has 2 bottles so its usually the early afternoon one that gets cut out. I'm struggling to get Lara to drink water again at the moment, that's why she sometimes has 3 bottles just so she is getting some fluid. She wont have any water at all the last few days. I've tried giving it to her in a bottle, in every sippy cup under the sun and also a normal cup, but no luck. Any suggestions???
Leigh - i just leave a sippy cup around for Miss B and than she drinks from it when she wants too! and sometimes i just remind her where it is and offer it too her - usually she will drink it than also! Not sure if that will help u with Lara tho - u prob already do that tho!
I forgot to ask how did the christening/1st bdays go?
HJ - The christening/b'day went really, really well. The day ran so smoothly which was good. Lara slept thru the christening, even getting her head wet ha ha. I suppose its better than her screaming.
