    Thought I would kick off our thread and post our arrivals list. Though looking at it, it seems we only have 3 babies actually born between the 16th and 30th of Sept so far ... If you want to be removed from the list, please let me know or if you want to join our group, also let me know and I will add you.

    Wow what a lot of gorgeous little bubbas!, and looking at the list seems our Master Joshua weighed in the highest!..... Took him to the clinic this morning he has put on 700g since coming home (4.9kg now) so he is doing REALLY well). The clinic nurse did not believe that he was only 2 weeks 5 days old....

    wow! such a large array of beautiful names for our beautiful babies
    and out of that there is 2 Oscar's
    my little man will be 4weeks old on monday, time flys doesnt it.
    i am slowly but surely healing as i suffered a 3rd degree tear. and am slowly getting oscars routine together, he is still waking every hr to 2 hrs which has resulted in many sleepless nights, and me being extremly emotional.
    i had a waxing appoitment yesterday booked it so that Oscar would hopefully be sleeping while i got it done, but nope wide awake half way through my eyebrows started screaming his little lungs out, tried absolutly everything nothing except me holding him helped. i got rather stressed and upset and decided not to continue with my waxing so walked out looking rather odd (one eye done the other not) i have to go back today to get the other done as DP is not working today as its his bday! so thinking of sneakily getting my nails done and coffee with my girlfriend while DP has oscar!

    on another note my darling sister gave birth to her first son early this morning
    after being induced on wednesday 4pm! poor girl mine was 13hrs and bad enough.
    her and her DP welcomed Lincoln Oliver weighing a massive 9pound9. he has a beautiful head of hair congratulations to my sisterr.

    Hope you girlies are enjoying your little bundles of joy!

    Congratulations to your sister Brooke. I hope right now you're enjoying getting pampered

    I thought I would post in here to let you all know I am around and will be posting in here as soon as I get a chance. Anelise is sleeping at the moment and Harrison is (hopefully!) about to take a nap so I might join them also.
    Anelise has been a brilliant baby... she loves to co sleep with us as much as I enjoy her co sleeping but there is still that part of me that is way too scared. She spent all of last night in her bassinette though which gave DH & I a lovely sleep.
    Hope everyone is well

    I have posted this in the general chatter section too but...

    Our little man seems to get the worst wind pain every two to three days. We are FF but he gets about two BF's per day (5 - 8 mins/side). We burp a few times during a feed (using different burping positions), have tried gripe water, massaging his belly with his knees (in a bicycle motion), etc, but nothing seems to ease his pain until he does a massive 'fluff' or a pooh.

    Could it be that he does not like my b/milk? I am eating pretty blandly (trying to lose weight ), and I don't think he would be getting enough to make a difference?

    Constipation from the FF perhaps?

    How do we get the air out before it gets stuck in his belly?

    Any ideas?

    DD2 has had some pretty bad wind pain too and I am using Infant's Friend (I got some from the chemist) and it gets the wind up immediately. The stuff is magic (at least for DD2, I don't know about for all babies). We had a couple of really bad nights early on because she was in so much pain but have found this gets it up very soon after a feed and then she settles into a nice long sleep. If you want info on what's in it and what other people say about it you could google it. I googled it and couldn't find anyone who didn't find it good and it is made from all natural ingredients.

    Hope that helps.

    I have also heard great things about Infants Friend. I have no advice for you other than the things you've been doing. I hope you find a solution that works real soon

    Hi All,
    Just thought I'd drop in and say hi.
    I can't believe how fast the time is going, my darling little girl is 8 months old already!!!
    We've been doing really well, have taken a few backward steps in regards to our nighttime sleeps, but other than that everything has been going really well.
    Had our 8 month appt last week, 6.96kg - Emily is still so little, we just can't get to that 7kg mark.....
    Hope you are all well and enjoying your little ones?

    Hi Angela & Emily

    Welcome back Jyoti & Welcome BalmainGirl.

    Sorry that there doesn't seem to be much action happening in here... I think a majority of us keep up with each other via facebook these days.

    If you're on there, feel free to add me - Here

    Besides that... Anelise & I are both well. Anelise is soooooooo close to walking. She climbs our 15 stairs between down & upstairs at our house! She is a crazy little active girl who is always doing something mischevious like pulling things out of drawers, climbing things etc. She definitely keeps me on my toes and is polar oppsosite to her brother! lol
