***April & May Mummy & Baby***

Hey Emma, just have the calpol ready just in case...and lots of mummy cuddles. JJ was fine after his second set...he just slept quite a lot. Third and final set next week!! Hate seeing him scream initially :-(

Good luck for H's xxx
 
3rd set?! I thought they only had 2 lots then nothing til a year old? I should really have a look through his red book, I'm fairly sure all the jab info is in there.

I have calpol in from his last lot, so I'm armed and ready lol

I'm gonna ask about his constipation too, as its affecting his eating they may give him something? If there is any thing?

Xxx

Chezza thus bad mummy has in the night garden recording on series link! Access at all times of day :) purely to was pots and start dinner ;) she loves it squeals and giggles away.

Chezza im with you on the tele thing Rian loves bob the builder lol he chuckles away at it and it gives me a but of spare time to do jobs.

Im so jealous of you all going on hol mine seems a lifetime ago now.

Off to get littleman weighed today i get strangly excited taking him as i love finding out how much hes gained xxx
 
Harrison watches tv but he'll watch what ever is on really lol. Although I do have pocoyo downloaded to my iPad. When he's on the floor I pop the iPad down for him to watch and it gives me a few more mins to run around lol

We're all So naughty hahaha

Xxx
 
I have another question ladies.

We're does your lo nap. H currently naps in his pram but is fast out growing the carry cot, so want him to start napping in his cot before that happens. He self settles and has been in his cot a while now and we have a sensor mat so don't need to be with him whilst he sleeps. But my question is do you pull the blind down/close curtains to make the room dull for nap time or just stick them in there?

I don't want him to go down thinking its dark, I'm going in my cot therefore it's bed time....not that I think babies think like that, but you never know ;)

Xxxx
 
Rian naps where he falls asleep during the day as hes a cat napper so i just leave him to it. I woukd love to put him in his cot during the day buthe wont settle in it just screams yet at night hes an angel in it kids hey xx
 
Evan naps wherever he falls asleep. If I dare to put him in the cot he'll protest. He'll nap in the car seat, bouncy chair and while being held. We don't bother with curtains closed but we don't have a nap schedule (not through lack of trying!)

Evan only woke once at half 5! He was chatting to the cot so wasn't sure after a feed whether he'd go back to sleep but he did and my alarm went off at half 9.

Leaving Evan with my parents while I have my first counselling session.

Anyone know how much water you can give a bf baby? He's def constipated so want to try water first xx
 
Emma, you can just redownload the wonder weeks app again. You have already paid for it so you won't get charged again.
Our little ones were due on the same day, so sorry to tell you that the 4th leap's coming up at the end of this week.

Not up to much today as I had a bad night's sleep. Fwd E at 6pm, in bed at 8 awake & self-settled! She woke at 1:30 for a feed, then 5:30 but. cried after that one with tummy issues so I had to take her downstairs for an hour. She's still not had a poo... I'm afraid of what's coming! lol
 
Well she's finally asleep! Little bugger I think she's got a bit of a cold and tummy ache as she was crying her something hurts/not very well cry managed to give her some calpol and she's in her swing in the living room asleep! For how long is anyone's guess!

I'll poo her in the carrier after lunch I think and go for a stroll.

Right off to make me some lunch and have a tidy in the kitchen.

Omg. Im back! It feels like an eternity. What did we do before smart phones? I seriously dont function without mine. How is everyone? Xx

Tapatalking! Can't see tickers!
 
Amy - that's great about Evan!! :-) Not sure about water quantity though with BF babies..? Hope your session went well today...?

Emma - yep 3 sets unfortunately :-( JJ wont really nap in his cot during the day, so I normally pop him in his poddle pod and he will go for 60 - 90 mins between 11 and 12 - and around the same length between 3 and 4. I don't close curtains etc - because I don't want naps confused with propped bed time. Might not be the right thing to do, but it works for us.

Today being the exception of course...as he was screaming the house down for a bottle - its only been 2 hours since his last one and I was trying every distraction technique known to man!! Had to give in - he was crying real tears and sweating, he had worked himself up so much :-(

We have 12 days left of this 5 week long LEAP and I will be very glad to see the back of it!! xx
 
I hate this leap! h is all over the place. He fell asleep on the boob earlier nearly 3 hrs later and he's still asleep!!! Everyday he's having one major sleep! I'm not use to it at all. Going to have to wake him for his feed though because we're going to my OH's parents for tea. X

Just seen that post - thanks V&B! Problem is the height and weight restrictions on the jumparoo are max weight 11kg/24lbs and max height of 85cm. JJ is already 18 1/2 lbs and 74 cm tall! So I don't know if it would be worth paying out for one...?? Such a good price though - complete bargain! Thanks for thinking of me :-) xx

Hi girls,

I'm on here but don't post on this thread much as I find it too hard to keep up!!

On the whole look like all your gorg baba's are growing nicely and doing really well!! and you all seem to enjoy being a mama as much as i do :)

Trey is doing good. So so good actually, so alert and interested in everything. He discovered siting up now and that's all he wants to do, he's a little wobbly and needs some support but he's really getting the hang of it. I use my feeding pillow to support him, he hates lying down now unless it's to change his nappy.

Teething has begun and it really is horrid :( random outbursts of crying is no fun. I use the teething gel and teething granules and they seem to help. We have some teething toys but he's just not interested and will rather bite his hands!

He's rolled over a few times from tummy to back and I'm trying to encourage him to do more but he hates tummy time so I have limited time to do it!!

He's slept thru the night -9pm till 6am - on a few occasions which makes me a very happy mummy, :) mostly he'll sleep from 9pm to about 4am then will Sleep again untill about 9.30am. I feed him every 3 hours so I think he's full enough during the day to sleep thru. Plus we have an established bedtime routine now which suits all of us so well. :)

Oh and finally i'm hating this 4th leap and can't want till its over! He's so clingy and needy, always moans when I leave the room as wants to be held all the time. He'll sometimes only nap for 20 mins or so leaving with no time to myself! It means I'm often doing housework after his 4am feed - naughty me!!

Anyway that's us. I'll continue to stalk tho!! Hope you all have a good rest of day and eve.

Xxxxxxx

Hate the 4th LEAP - apparently it is the worst one..? Hope that's true!! 12 days left!!!!!

That's a great weight :-) Wish my LO's weight gain would slow down a little...he has around 35oz every day in 5 bottles...but he's just getting so big! He is in 9 - 12 months clothes now and some of the trousers I bought for him are starting to look a little short on his legs...was hoping they would last at least through Autumn :-(

Yes, HV's were put on this earth to make us feel like crap mothers!! What's yours done...? xx
