Well wonderful world of night waking in continuing ... hit a new high last night of 6 times. Sanchez I don't know how you have managed almost 7 months of it. I really wish I was able to do the co-sleeping thing as I am sure it would be so much easier but never did it at home so don't think either of the two of us would sleep for fear of squashing Sam. I am so exhausted as you don't really get to rest or certainly not sleep during the day. Both of us have caught colds due to the horrid weather and have fingers and toes crossed that Sam doesn't get it. He is a bit snuffly so keeping an eye on him.
How are the rest of you finding your day milk feeds going these days? I am finding he is less and less interested in feeding during the day - too much else going on I guess - and am wondering if this is causing him to want to feed so much at night? I hadn't intended to really start to replace BFs with formula until after we got back to Oz as I reckoned that would easier to give him BFs on the plane but not sure know as am considering anything to get some of my sleep back!. I know as his solids meals increase his milk intake would drop but he will only go on for a few minutes each side max during the day. AF has come back too but don't think that this is causing him not to feed as he is quite happy to do so as long as its pitch black outside
Sangie hope all goes well with Ethans visit to ortho and they are able to sort issue out easily. Sam doesn't move in his cot and always seems to sleep facing the same way but doesn't have an issue that I can see of that the health nurses have mentioned. I wonder are some babies more prone to it than others - softer heads?
Sanchez you might be right about V having a smaller appetite that might explain the number of feeds she has always taken at night. I guess we have little or no way of knowing what they take when you are breast feeding. Hope her little tooth comes through easily.
Pooley have fun in Cairns at the wedding. Can't believe F has 6th teeth already. Isn't it amazing just how differently all the babies develop and grow. Hope he continues to recover. Sounds like he is a very cheery little chappie and stays happy no matter what.
Art looks like no one told our little ones about food being fun until 1. Sam certainly lets us know that he is not impressed if he is put into his high chair and the food isn't ready IMMEDIATELY. He loves his food 99% of the time and is increasing the amount he takes what seems like daily. I think I will start to introduce some meat into his diet next week. When we were down at his grannys last week I wasn't able to puree his food like I do at home and he coped really well with more lumpy food.
Kelly hope are you having fun on your hols.
Thats all for now ....... kisses all round and keep sending sleepy vibes our way.
