WTG Jazzy!!! Fabulous gain! :)
Things have been hectic here! The little man is growing well, he hasn't been weighed since late December but I'm guessing he is over 5 it's now. He is feeding every 4 hours during the day and going 4-6 hours overnight after his dreamfeed. Would love it if he went 6-8 after dreamfeed!
AF came back last week :(
Had the little miss's 3rd birthday last week, very hectic. Can't believe she is 3 already! And she starts 3 yo kinder next week. We have finally had success with toilet training, it is so good not having to change two bums!
I can't believe the summer break is nearly over. Next week all activities start again and life becomes crazy busy!
Have started doing pilates to help to get ready to go back to hockey and I am amazed at how good it is, I am converted!
Hope you are all well :)

Hey girls, thought I would pop in and say hi!
Well Amy just rolled from tummy to back... four times in a row! Shes such a great baby! I put her to bed at 8pm last night and she was awake by 715.... thanks for the sleep georgous girl:) Shes found her voice now too and theres so much squealing and chuckling its so lovely... except when shes hungry she lets us know!
How is everyone and their babies?
its good here jazzy hates lying down which makes a few things impossible she tried the jolly jumper and she was giggling so id say thumbs up to jolly jumper and she like the bumbo shes just a little wobbly still shes blowing raspberries all the time sometimes a bit fussy with feeding but is good when we are in the car and out which is good and will e good for moving jamie will be looked after by whoever is on hand while we move but i'll probably only have to do the drive twice its scary coz its coming up so quick
hey everyone! kayla is doing great, still breastfeeding, which is going really well, she is over 6kgs now. she is a wonderful sleeper going from around 9pm to 8.15am some nights. she is rolling onto her tummy lots, and loves tummy time. she hardly ever cries, she is just great :)
it's hard to find time to come on here now, with all the groups i go to, and any spare time i have is usually taken up with cleaning the house!
well done amy :)
good luck with the move jjj
:hello:
Hey I haven't been around for a bit so thought I would do a quick update.
DD2 is 4 1/2 months now :o, she had her 4 month shots last week and Dr checked her heart and lungs and all was perfect, she has just cracked 6kg (my little boofa) :lol: well compared to her sister, she is 66 cm long :o and I think her HC was 42cm.
Yesterday she rolled for the first time and did it both ways :leap: it was a slow process but she got there, I couldn't help but giggle when she her her legs over and her head over and face into the mat, but couldn't get her bum and body over, but after a bit more effort over she went :D She ended up doing it twice and her big cute fluffy bum didn't stoper her.
She is still exclusively breastfed, I tired to offer her a bottle of EBM last week and she lost it, so if we try again i will get DH to try, because she just looked at me with her mouth open and wouldn't suck. But in reality it doesn't bother me, I will be fine if she just goes to a cup anyway, I think the last week was a wonder week/growth spurt, as she was feeding all over the place, even threw in a 1 am feed and consistenly 4:30am feeds, but after her learning to roll effort yesterday last night she slept from 8-8am, woke up very happy and today has been sleeping more as well. But I will guess I will see what happens from here.
We have also tried the bumbo, she only lasts 5-8min at a time, but enjoys it, we have a jolly jumper, but haven't bothered with it yet, I don't think she has the trunk tone for it yet, we have a jumperoo as well, but we won't bother for a few more months yet.
She only poo's once every 8 days, it makes the nappy cleaning a lot easier, her sister did the same.
MIL again mentioned solids, I didn't even bother to respond, but DH stood up and said nope :D, we are following the WHO guidelines and we will start once she is 6 months or there abouts, she went on about well I guess things have changed since you were kids, but it never hurt you :rolleyes: SIL started at 3 1/2 months so she is expecting us to have done the same... ahhh nope, DD2 is even close to showing signs that she is remotely interested in solids. I am in no rush and you should have seen the look of horror when I said I was going to start by doing BLS!!!!!
Good luck with the move JJJ
WTG Amy for the rolling
marknjo, DD1 ex 33 weeker, was feeding 2 hourly until she was 6 months of age and only hit 5.5kg at 6 months of age, often the smaller bubs do need more feeing more often, I feel you pain, we went through it and DD1 never slept through until 15 months - OUCH, I hope that the feeds space out more for you soon xxoo
WTG SPF with the feeding and some great weight gain by your little miss K!
hey beema, your little one is not so little any more! you must have some good milk there!!! i know what you mean about people making the solids comments, i have been getting that off one of my older friends, but we are not starting solids till 6 months either. i feel annoyed that i have to repeat it everytime i visit her.
DD must be the laziest baby or maybe im not giving her enough floor time....
she had her 4mnth needles thursday just gone.. she as alright that night but oh my friday she was a total different baby..
Happy 4months to Eboni and Mason :dance:
Happy 4 1/2 months Miss A.
Beema: I feel your pain about re: solids/ alot of people ask me and im over it.. i just say DD only needs my milk until 6months then we shall try solids..
anyone's baby teething?? i think DD is but not entirely sure..
I havent posted here in awhile.. I normally just come on here to see whats happening.. I finally put my birth story up :)
Anyway i must away.. I'm so tired..
Hope all bubbas and mummas are doing well!
Im another one who wont be starting solids til around 6 months. I dont think that their little guts are ready for it. I have a friend whos ds is born the same day as Amy and she put up pics of him being fed just BEFORE he was 3 months! She did the same with her ds1! Not even on the packet food does it say before 4 months. Anyway people have thier own ways of doing things. I started Liv and Bec around 5.5 months soley because they both were showing strong interest in feeding. Amy is no where near that!
Retro- I started putting Amy down on the floor for tummy time after every feed last month coz i wasnt giving her much tummy time and within a few weeks she got really strong. I wouldnt worry, they are all different.
Beema-Your little lady sure isnt little anymore. Congratulations on doing such a great job! I dont have any of those things you mentioned but I always wondered about the bumbo... looks funky! I just use convensional pillows!!!!
SPF- good to hear from you. Sounds like youre having a lovely time and doing loads of stuff with Kayla. I cant seem to work out how Im going to co-ordinate swimming lessons with 3 and I would like to get Liv into Gymnastics.... All this stuff I would like to do, I dont know if its my energy levels or I cant mentally figure out how to do it!
Marknjo- sounds like your man is doing well too. Hope his night feeds strech out for you soon. Happy 3rd Birthday to your dd. Enjoy getting back into shape.
Tripple J- How cute with the raspberries! Hows the moving coming along?
AFM- things are going well here. Amy was doing so well with sleeping but I think shes going through a major growth spurt coz shes constantly drinking and is waking for feeds during the night again. I hope it settles soon. We dont have a health nurse appointment til next week but Im sure shes around 6kgs and shes getting longer! My other 2 girls are going well, they are back in day care now. I am trying to loose weight, I have 17 kgs to loose and have lost 2 so far. I started running again but hurt my foot so now I am training on the bike. I can see my tummy going down too which is nice! I have 5 kgs to go before my pre pregnancy weight and the rest of its from being comfortable in life! I still havent had AF return yet.... I wonder when that will happen? Anyway, hungry baby better run!
Nice to see a bit of Traffic through here!
Kate is doing wonderfully well, she is still a really chilled out bub which rocks. Her sleeping has gone a bit haywire in the last month, she has gone from sleeping through the night, to waking up at least once, she usually struggles with the farts around 4-6am. Her day sleeps are a bit of a pain at the moment, having trouble getting her to stay asleep, she goes to sleep beautifully but doesn't seem to like to stay that way.
I am lucky not to have had any pressure about solids, we are waiting to 6 months and even then I am in no hurry, solids= lots of work.
I only have another 12 weeks now untill I start back at work, so I am really trying to cherish the time I have left at home- although I still haven't managed to turn into any kind of domestic goddess, housework really aint my thing!
Retro- Kate definatly has teeth moving around in her mouth, one broke through the skin and then went back down- so dissapointing!
Anyway better get on, DD1 is back at school now- 5 full days and it is taking alot of adjust for all of us to get back into routine.
Well I am happy to say that the little man has dropped his night feed! He still has a dream feed at around 10.30 which he doesn't even stir for and usually sleeps until between 6.30 and 7.30 yay!
We had MCHC today and he is 6kg, 61 long and 42 head and has jumped from the 10th percentile line to the 25th percentile so is doing really well. He has to have his 4 month injections tomorrow :(
We are really starting to see a bit of his personality now, I'm loving it :) now just waiting for all of the fun of rolling, sitting etc to happen.

Ali ~ I completely agree with the solids being extra work, I don't know what the huge rush is TBH, but happy to follow DD2's lead and see how she goes I am looking forward to experimenting with BLS in comparrison to puree's this time :) Wow teeth moving as well, I don't think we have any action happening there yet, I hope her sleeping settles. DD's is a bit all over the place but we don't really had a strong routine during the day, but I am happy with her waking at just after 6am the last few days as I have been feeding her lying down in bed and she has been finishing and happy to chill out ont he bed and I get to have adecent shower before DD1 wakes up :) It also means I get the daycare drop off done early and back home to work earlier which I have really enjoyed :)
MarknJo ~ Wow isn't Master C doing fabulously, that is an impressive weight gain and brilliant to see him jump percentiles DD2 has done that as well and it is so reassurring :) He is a very similar size to DD2 she is just 5cm longer :o
Mini ~ The bumbo is great, we picked it up pretty cheap from B Bunting, SIL and I went halves, I also picked up the tray for it, will probably use it inseat of the highchair for a while. We ended up borrowing one from friends with DD1 as she had poor truck control due to hypermobility and it did help. There is pretty good resale on them as well, so one fo those things you can easily buy and sell again. Well done on losing 2 kg great start!
Retro ~ how did the MCHN appointment go? Some days DD2 doesn't get a lot of tummy/play mat time, being out and about, but it's ok, some days she gets a lot!
SPF ~ she isn't tiny at all and it is amazing me how quickly she is growing in comparrison to DD1!
AFM ~ I am hoping that DD2 is settling into a better feeding routine overnight, no so keen on getting up :lol: She is rolling each day, not much but a little, and spinning in circles on her play mat on her back. I've got 5kg to lose to be back to pre/early pregnancy weight with DD2 or 1 to be the same I was with DD1, but would like to lose the 5 ;) Must go I am "needed" by the girls xxoo
MCHN went well... last time she was here DD weighed 7.25kg.. this time 7.23kg (thats clothed though.. maybe next ti'm i'll as if we can weigh her bare skin), nurse seen i was concerned but she said she wasnt. and that DD had been having good weight gains! Her (L) is 64cms. HC is 42.5cms. the nurese said she is in the percentiles but i cant remember what she said. must ask her to put it in the blue book..
Eboni didnt have a good night last night got back home from my sisters at 10pm (ish) my sister watched DD while i had a shower (as to be honest I'm finding having a shower very hard as DP hasnt been around much and when i say right i'm going to go have it now DD wakes up. i know excuses..) My sister gave her some dymadon and she sort of settled.. she was hysterical.. after she had the dymadon i fed her and she went to sleep.. then we laid on my parents bed and i sang to her and it helped, i put her in bed with me last night..
Sorry this has been a me/us post.
Wow aren't you both doing a fabulous job Retro :)
:hug: Me posts are ok we need to do it some days xxoo
Helllooooo! Where is everyone? Hope you are all well :)

jazzy now fits in 00 jumpsuits :o
Good job on the bfing. I pulled the pin at 8 weeks!
How did the move go?
Hope the appt goes well, sounds like your little princess is growing well! We are still in 000's depending on brand of course, but I have started using some 00 singlets! I think Campbell is going through a growth spurt so may be in 00 soon. He has really ramped up how much he is drinking each day!
Good luck for tomorrow, hopefully the traffic is friendly! Who is looking after Jazz?
the move isnt quite finished ask me in a couple of weeks lol
