Eboni is now fully crawling, 5 teeth... pulling herself up on things now... not long til she is walking i think.. she walk while holding onto our hands..
As for the more babies... i want more but now right now.. We had an oopsie the other week so im not sure if i am pregnant.. we shall see.. im absolutely crapping myself if i am.... im not ready for another baby..
you'll survive if u do ave an ooopsie i was ok with 2 17 months apart lol im still here
jazzy is getting the goin forward and can stand while shes holding on to things and 5 teeth now here too wish i could figure out how to get her into her bed
when you figure out how to put her in her bed please let me know!! Eboni is co-sleeping with me/ my partner when he decides to sleep in our bed... I 'did' try to put her in her cot the other night it lasted an hour then she woke crying
You will be fine if you do have an oopsie... my first 2 are 19 months apart and although it was hard work at the start, its so much easier and they play so well!
Amy has 7 teeth and has finally started commando crawling! The other two were almost walking at this age, but im not complaining because its hectic around here and I know its going to get so much more busy when shes on the move properly!
well i havnt been on BB in ages i havnt had much time with work and the kids snf then when i do have time DH is studying so i cant use the comp lol.
So mason has 8 teeth and i think some of his molars are about to come threw they r all bumpy at the mo. when he does get his teeth they take forever nad we dont sleep for like 2 weeks. Everyone has been sick on and off for like 6 weeks and other then mason having a bit of a runny nose (which i think is teeth anyways) he hasnt been sick so i am hoping he will stay like that.
He has been walkin since just after he was 11months, he thinks he is so clever and runs when he knows he is in trouble.
His new trick is to trow his sisters toys into the toilet so that has been fun lol.
doesnt say too much we have mum mum, dad, ta, car and bye
loves giving hugs and kisses and is a sooky mummies boy latly.
How is everyone else goingn with sleep?
mas went through a stage for like a month that he wouldnt sleep and ended up in with us after about a hr so we could just shove the dummy in once he started sooking. We are back to sleeping now thank god but some ngihts its hard to get him to sleep.
he has 1 big day sleep of anywhere between 1hr to 3 hrs at lunch time and then he is normally ready for another about 6pm but we stretch him out cause if he sleeps b4 8pm he is down for a hr then up till midnight.
Im back at work well a few jobs at the mo and it is abit full on tryin to get more organised at home but its just not working. i have a causal job setting up weddings then working them which is normally fri and sat but we have been doing morning teas and cleaning during the week. then i do ironing of the wedding linen at home i am so far behind in it at the mo its not funny. And last but not least i am back at daycare but i am a relief carer now so i just work when someone needs me to come to their house and take of their daycare if they r sick of have an appt etc. so throw into all of this that hubby just started doing his bach of technology at home so he comes home from work has tea then is off the hte comp room till 1030 to study so i feel like i am tryint o do all this on my own sometimes.
Cant beleive all our babies are 1 (or 1 in a few days) it really doesnt seem that long ago i cant beleive how fast it has gone. I went back to work when DD was 6 weeks so decided to take 6months off with mason because i thought i missed out of too much going back so soon with DD but omg i feel like i have blinked and he is all grown up.
Hi ladies,
Sorry it has been so long since I have posted in here. It is really nice to hear what everyone is up to and how the babies are going.
Mini - it sounds like things were a bit tough (and sleep deprived) for a while there - are things better now? How is it going with jugglinh being back at work and the shift work? I think you are amazing to do what you do with three little ones!
Sassy - sounds like you are super busy too - lots of balls in the air to juggle!
Retro - so are you pregnant?! : ) How is everything going with Eboni? You will know how and when to get her into her own bed when the time is right. Enjoy the cuddles for now! Sometimes i wish Edward would sleep in our bed - but whenever he comes into our bed he just thinks it's party time!! lol
I am back at work now, Mon-wed (should be working now!). I do 7.30-5 so I leave the house before 7 but it means I can be home by 6 to feed and bath Edward. I stopped breastfeeding last week. Was tough to finish it up, but for the last month he was only having the night feed, and for the last couple of weeks I am sure the wasn't even milk, he was just comfort sucking so was also giving him a cup of milk. He is at childcare while I am at work and coping really well with it. i still find it tough, not being with him, but he is a pretty social little man so he loves playing with new things and people while he is there. My husband does the srop off and pick up most days (his work day is shorter and therefore it means less hours in childcare for Edward) - so I think that has helped If it was me droppnig him off I think there would be more tears. He has had a few rounds of childcare illnesses already, nothing too serious. It has been a bit difficult to juggle work when he is sick though. my new boss is making it really difficult and my husband started a new job 6 mths ago so can't take too many days off (we don't have any family in Melbourne so can't get any other help). But on the whole it is working ok - logistically at least! Emotionally i have really struggled with it, but it is getting easier.
Edward is almost walking, has been 'cruising' for a couple of months now, but his fotting is becoming more stable and when he forgets he lets go of things and stands on his own for a few seconds. He is trying to say more words now (they kind of sound the same though!). He is a very determined little thing and is very vocal when he doesn't want to do something! uh oh - will have to watch the temper tantrums - he already knows to scream and kick his legs!!
He has finally started sleeping through (started at about 11 mths), however since about 9mths he wakes up at 5am every morning. I am still struggling with the early mornings, however, I can't complan as he goes down really well at 7 each night and generally we don't hear from him again until the morning. He is swaps between on and two day sleeps, depending on how tired he is really. After his three days of childcare he is normally pretty tired and has two sleeps on thursdays and fridays (and also becasue he wakes up so early!)
As for next baby - hopefully sometimes soon. We were going to start trying this month but my period came a week and a half early - very strange as i am NEVER EVER early (normally have a 35 day cycle). So am a bit dissapointed we missed out window this month. Not to worry - there is always next month!
Hope everyone else is doing well and enjoying the warmer spring weather!
