Brand New - I love it and usually become completely obsessed with it

Right, off to bed now ladies...sleep well babies!! xxx

Thanks chezza, I do like the cosatto one. The brighter the better as far as my lo is concerned. The only thing is everywhere I have seen this bouncer has bad reviews. Apparently the frame is no good and comes apart. Suppose I could super glue it together?! Lol or do the normal thing and return it. I think I'll risk it and order it.


Lol OH is fine. Had sore neck and shoulders for over a week afterwards but other than that he's good. He's a bit miffed however as the insurance isn't paying out what he thinks he should get, so were going to have to put the rest towards. But I'm not bothered, as long as he's safe.

So he left me at 2pm and boy do I miss him. I thought I'd love being on my own for a while, own space/pamper time. Turns out its rather boring. The kids are tucked up in bed and I've no one/nothing to entertain myself with lol so I took myself up to bed and even that is depressing, you think I'd like being able to starfish...apparently not lol

H went down with a little bit of a fight tonight, 3 times I had to pop his dummy in and I had to pick him up once to pat him. He woke again after that but managed to self settle.

So whilst all is quiet im going to shop for ice cube trays with lid for putting H first foods in. I bought a silicone tray thingy from babiesRus but the compartments are huge if in put a teaspoon of food in the bottom of that I think it would look lost! Great for when they eat more tho as they come in different colours I have purple for fruit and green for veg!

Xxx

I'm glad I gave all you ladies a good laugh! It was a few weeks ago and "touch wood" I haven't done anything that stupid since. Harry fell asleep at half five on the couch. Woke up at 7:15 for a Feed and went back off. Guess our day tired him out. I hope he stays asleep but haven't got my hopes up.

Sorted all his clothes out today and got all his warmer stuff out. Goodness that boys got more then me and I've ordered him some more stuff which I didn't need to as I'd forgotten what he had. He's currently got 3 snow suits all 3-6months???? When's he going to get chance to wear them?

 

[sophie_jane]

Oh Wow, another teething baby, V&B. Hope Libby had a good night's sleep & it didn't affect her.

I need to sort through E's clothes for the winter too Stargirl. All the 2nd hand baby sales are starting up & I want some bargains! Will have to talk to some friends here & ask what they dressed their little ones in over winter, as I'm confused about snow suits & foot muff things for the buggy. It gets absolutely freezing here too.

I went out to my pelvic floor class last night (sounds weird but the government pays for it here). I fed E before I left & she was just dropping off to sleep so thought OH would have a nice evening to himself. Unfortunately when I git back he said she'd been an absolute nightmare & really screamed the whole evening. She was conked out next to him on the sofa. We managed to get her to bed without waking her & it's now 3 & I'm feeding her. Really hope she goes back to sleep ok. We've got our first baby massage class in the morning.

Hope you all had good nights!

Chezza we can obsess over it together. I do have to admit something tho!! I think I have a little crush on Gary! He is handsome, cheeky and an awesome cook. Ok confession over. On last nights show did u see that girl gagging on that smoked eel! And that poor bloke who couldn't even cook potatoes properly. I mean wtf! I'm not sure if I like the way they just picked the top 22 without showing us the other audition things first. I used to enjoy the bit where they gave out the aprons. Anyway hope every one is ok. Not been on much as been feeling very run down and drained. Not sure why. Anyway jack had banana last night for his 'tea' and loved it. New flavours every day. Xxx

Morning Hun! DH and I were very disappointed at the way they started it...missed out on all the auditions and choosing the top 22 - what's that about! I did laugh when she gagged on that smoked eel...imagine adding turmeric to it and frying it lol! And why pick a protein you've never cooked with when going through eliminations!! Doh!!

Sorry to hear you're feeling unwell...hope you feel better soon

I tried Joshie with banana last week and he hated it lol! He absolutely loves carrot and parsnip though - and I tried him on an Ella's kitchen pouch - red pepper, sweet potato & apple - and he literally cried every time I took the spain away from his mouth!! (So impatient like his dad.) I bought a few Ella's Kitchen pouches so I can see what kind of flavours he likes - and when I know what he likes I can make and batch freeze home made purees.

We had a bit of a rough night - Joshie is still suffering with a cold, poor little mite and he was awake every 1.5 hours or so and up at 5am for a feed. First bad night we've had in ages, so shouldn't grumble. Feeling ok on it though - off out to my mums today...she needs Joshie cuddles xxx

Another bad night here, 10 till midnight then I was up with her 4 times until 6 then again got her back to sleep and in her crib about 6.40 then as I laid my head down oh alarms started going off so got up and made a brew.

[Emma.b]

Well I had a fairly decent night last night his routine at the min seems to be 8pm sleep, wake at 3.30 for a feed, sleep til 7.30 then up for the day.

He's had his breakfast (bottle) and is now playing in his gym, although he's starting to look red eyed and tired?!

I'm hoping to get to rhyme time today, it'll be the first time we've been so fingers crossed he likes it.

Hope everyone has a good day, catch up with you all later xx

 

[pandabear]

morning ladies, havent logged on for a few days as have been mega busy and the tapatalk app on my phone doesnt seem to be working :-/
hope you have all been ok?
ava has had a cold over the weekend she had such a bad nights Saturday. sunday we went and brought all her a new bedding set for her cot bed as i think she is getting frustrated in the crib.

I just give ava cooled boiled water in her sippy cup.

have a good day x

 

[sophie_jane]

Don't know what's wrong with my poor baby at the moment. She went down after her feed at 3, but then woke up crying at 4. We were up until 6 and then slept until 8:30 and almost missed our massage class!!
It was really good and E loved it, but my it was hot in there!
Hope everyone's having a good day.

 

[MrsHope]

Hardly any sleep for us again. Two weeks this has been going on for. She's so clingy and whiney. Everyone I know in my friendship group who has babies this age (there is a lot of us!) is still getting decent sleep and they keep on going on about it. Wish they would bore off. So annoying lol they are going to get a shock soon lol I'm used to Rubes not being the best sleeper I suppose xx

 

[vinandbella]

MrsH fx it passes soon for both of us.

Madam is down in her big girl bed for a nap. Rocked her to sleep and popped her in.

Need to go and clean the kitchen but really need to flake out.

Play group was nice this morning there's a little area for the mini ones. £1 for 2 hrs unlimited tea and coffee for mums and its only round the corner. Win win

Hi Sophie couldn't believe it when I found it in her mouth! Dreading my first nipple bite lol

[sophie_jane]

oh ow, a bite on the nip ... really hope E doesn't do anything like that!!

She's out for the count on my lap after a feed now forcing me to type with my left hand!

Unlimited tea sounds immense! That's one thing I definitely miss about living here.

 

[MrsHope]

I'm just so glad I'm not the only one V&B who is not getting sleep. Strangely enough I have a message off my friend and she had had a bad night. Made me feel better. It can only get better ladies xx

 

[vinandbella]

When Libby was a good sleeper I was never smug about it I knew it would catch up with me eventually!

She's hopping away in her jumperoo too cute

my friend wasn't even benefitting from the baby being asleep. She would stay up until late so she's had a rough night when baby woke early. Oh dear! Choosing not to sleep is crazy in my eyes especially when there is the chance of not having any sleep lol x

 

[Chezza]

V&B - Aussie MC is on Watch 109

Its been a miserable wet rainy day here...had a lovely day around my mums drinking tea, eating crumpets and catching up, whilst she gets some much needed JJ time - lovely xx

 

[sophie_jane]

I love crumpets!!!

My baby has turned into a nightmare sleeper too. I'm feeling surpisingly spritely though!

She has been really sleepy all afternoon though, which doesn't bode well for tonight. -hopefully she'll sleep ok though as it's bath night and that always makes her really tired.

 

[vinandbella]

I'm currently sat on the bottom stair with madam in her swing on Mach 10 with her shouting and whining trying to get her to nap.

Cheers Chezza not sure if we get watch on freeview??

It's all gone quiet does mummy win again mwah hah hah just peeped not yet but think I will lol

What's for dinner??

Pork chops jacket spuds runner beans broccoli and carrots here
