How are all you new mummies doing?

[amylouise1989]

He's gone back to work already, saying that she was only 6days when he went back. so he takes over around 6pm till 11/12 then he goes to bed and I do the nights, I now have the perfect prep which is a life saver already noticing a difference and I'm not chained to the kettle etc lol!

Feels like a lifetime waiting for her too poop, I know 24 hrs isn't a long time, now realised it's actually normal, I know the midwife says it is, but I would rather take advice off real mums who have been through the Same thing, if that makes sense. Lol

How item does she get up at night? Luke was 3 hours on he dot lol so we used to feed him at 12, then he'd be up at 3, then. 6 and we'd put him back down and he's get up again about 7-8am

My hubby went back after a week but he could still help because he only works evenings unfortunately he was attacked badly when LO was 11days home on his way home
From work so for a few weeks he couldn't help due to his arm injury and his inability to see at night time. Wasn't easy.

It gets better though.

Finally decided on a stroller/buggy for my mum and dad. Think we're going to get the same too for when we want to quickly go somewhere in the car.

It's a joie aire+ £70 on pramworld. Now need to decide on colour lol

 

[Mummybexee]

Is that the one I showed you?

 

[Pumpkin9]

Yeah pretty much don't know what the plus has extra but I can't find the aire for £60 now anywhere (but more expensive than the aire+) so going with it. Looks really good and hopefully once we've got it and my mum has seen it she'll get it too. Now got to work on the penny pincher in laws!

Just got an email from tesco about the blip offer on pampers the other day saying they've refused to process my order due to an IT error. There goes my bargain!

 

[Jojo84]

[Pumpkin9]

[Jojo84]

[iWitch]

Austin cut 2 close together - not long after he discovered he could roll all over the room straight to daddy's foot & bit his toe haha!

 

[Mummybexee]

Don't hope too soon Michelle! Ryan's got his bottom two, which he was fine with, and now his top ones are swollen and hs dribbling like a god damn tap! I'm going through about 8 dribble bibs a day! X

 

[T84]

Go the babies with teeth. I've calmed down since my original post earlier. I'm now going into tomorrow as a new day and a better course of action! Wish me luck!

 

[douglasxox]

I thought LO cut his bottom tooth at about four months but it just seems to be sticking at that! I like his wee gummy smile for now lol!

Hi all, busy day today so only just caching up.

Hope you're ok Stacey, I picked up a pan that had been in the oven the other day and blistered a few of my fingers. I was crying like a baby over that, can't imagine what you are going through.

Go Luke, watch your fingers Jojo.lol. Emma still toothless although I can see 4 down the bottom to come through.

Bex, do they not count finger food as dinner then?

Hi Amylouse, congrats and welcome . When Emma was just new, she would go 3 or 4 days without pooing. Took a lot of chopping and changing formula to get her sorted. My oh went back to work after a few days, but I still made him do 1 of the night feeds to give me a break.

Kaedin, was it your ex you just split up with that punched you?! Omg! I'd definitely ask about getting that tooth fixed while you can.

Well Emma's back to waking a lot in the night. I must have gotten up 10 times last night. And Chris was up a lot too. At one point I wasn't even getting back to sleep before she was crying again. I think if I left her to cry for a while she would go back to sleep, but as the kids need to get up for school, I can't just leave her. Catch 22. Arghhh.

Chris now out tonight and I've got all 4 kids. Had to go pick my step daughter from school at 7:45 with all the little kids. Emma was screaming as she's normally in bed. Just got them all to bed at 9. I'd have a few wines if I didn't have to get up in the morning and attempt to make a barbie cake!lol

Don't hope too soon Michelle! Ryan's got his bottom two, which he was fine with, and now his top ones are swollen and hs dribbling like a god damn tap! I'm going through about 8 dribble bibs a day! X

Ryan was a superstar! Austin was a drama Queen :/ lol

 

[Mummybexee]

Toria you actually are supermum!! Don't know how you do it! But school till 7.45!! Is that private school ?

Hope Emma settles for you soon - have you tried an extra blanket or somethjng just incase she's abit nippy?

 

[StaceyRainbow]

Toria Stanley is the same with the waking up, think his just guna be a two week thing like it was just before he was 4 months he's done it the last 3 nights now! And now he's full of cold to top it off.
I know he's not cold in bed though everytime he wakes I check his back and the room temp, he's wearing vest sleep suit and blankets!

 

[T84]

Sounds horrendous toria, puts my stressful day to shame! Hope she sleeps better tonight, you must be shattered! Night ladies, it's waaay past my bedtime x
