How are all you new mummies doing?

[Mummybexee]

Uh oh!!! Crawling eeeekkk!!!

My husband is being a compete prick this evening! So I've put Oscar to bed - had a quick shower and am now in bed myself

Screw him!

 

[Jojo84]

Well I called it!! 8:10pm, picked up my knife and fork was just enjoying holby city and.... Waaaaaaaah!,

I'm upstairs in bed having my tea and watching holby in case he wakes again lol

 

[Kaedin]

Hayley fell asleep & has been in bed since 7:10 and woke twice just wanting a dummy. Hoping she'll sleep thru

Well done Emma on crawling! Growing up too quicky! Hayley still hates tummy time, so I don't think she'll be crawling anytime soon! She normally won't even last a few mins on her belly urgh! She can walk if you hold her so she doesnt fall hough, so I think she might just skip crawling.

Good excuse for an early night Bex. Keep meaning to ask, how are you settling back in to work?

Did he go to bed early jojo? I'm determined to get Emma sleeping through again. I spent all afternoon jumping around like a numpty to keep her awake so she'd go to sleep easier. Crossing my fingers she goes till at least 3.

Kaedin, Emma still hates tummy time. Think that's how she ended up on her hands and knees. She would roll over then not like the position she got herself in.

 

[T84]

Go Emma!!

Must be another full moon Bex, just posted in the main section.. Raging!

Hope the babies sleep x

He went to bed his normal time of 6:15ish I think the issue is that he has his bottles at 7:3,10:30,1:30,4:30 and he's not hungry at 6 but is hungry at 70-7:30 (he never makes much of his 4:30 feed. Idk if I shoukd try streching it out till 5:30 as I feed him at 4:30 too. - all his other meals are between feeds. His breakfast us 9ish and his lunch at 12:30ish. I think I need to tweak his routene a bit. I was going to put him to bed at 7 but he's ready fir bed at 6pm. He's woken a few tines since hus bottle wanting his dummy but he seems to be down now. Mist night (90% of the time) he sleeps till 07:30 - you can set your watch by it lol then sleeps about 07:45-0845 again.

Luke does the walking around thing lol if you put him in his door bouncer he just walks around lol doesn't bounce. If you hold his hands he uses them yo steady himself and takes steps and things. I think he'll walk befire he crawls.

 

[Kaedin]

If Hayley rolls onto her tummy she'll just scream whilst trying to roll over again. Alot of the time she gets that upset she can't roll back, so I have to sit her up or roll her back over

Aww hope you at least enjoy your early night Bex!

 

[dizzybaby]

Toria I've been meaning to ask did you get that sky baby mattress thing in the end for Emma?

We fly in 4 weeks and it's like itt hit me like a ton of bricks we must be mad - I'm bricking it about the flight now!

 

[T84]

I know he doesn't nap jojo but have you tried again? Maybe he's needing a nap to tide him over to a later bed time and getting all his bottles in. S literally would not nap anywhere bar her buggy but your lucky if it was half an hour at a time and afternoons were crap for us cos she was overtired. Literally this week, I'm putting her in her cot, sleeping bag on, blind down and sheep on and she will finally nap for like and hour, it's been a lifesaver for us! Hopefully it's not just cos she's poorly tho x

 

[T84]

Not long dizzy!!! You will have a ball hon, don't worry just pack plenty toys, milk and snacks x x

Men are knobs I could kill mine tonight I've been at work since 1-6 went to fetch Macie from my mums n didn't get back until 6.30 and she's normally in bath by 6 so she was crying I rang him to get bath run n stuff sorted his reply I'm out with the dog! I swear that dog is his priority in life I've never had one lie in cus he must take the dog out straight away or the world will end! Then he said where are my twin sisters birthday card n present it's there birthday and my mums rang me to ask what's happening with their stuff! Well that was it they are his half sisters they have same mum they are really weird I've always made an effort with then but they have only just started putting my name on Xmas card after 7 years what's tipped it is I text them when Macie was born n didn't get a card present or even a reply sweet fa! It's done me she is their niece fgs not to reply to my message is just plain rude I can't understand it I no they are weird but!! So anyway my reply was they only thing they are getting off me is a mouthful! He's now in a huff I've had to rant to u or il kill him he can't understand why I'm mad I'm just fed up of his shit family not one of them has bought Macie anything except his mum bought her a sun hat that will fit her when she's about 4! They never ask to see her And when they do they just call her Mardy because she cries at them it's all about sil 3 kids makes my blood boil!!! And breathe lol xxxxx

He kinda does nap. Usually around 11amish for 30 minutes and around 3:30pm for half an hour but he will not nap in his cot lol I tried it a few times last week.

 

[Pumpkin9]

Well done Emma! Scary times though getting stuff out the way!

Jojo- I'm watching holby tomorrow, hubby hates it so I record it so I can watch it with a cup of tea on my own.

Stupid baby brain. Forget to send my brother-in-law a birthday card and it's tomorrow. Going to do a moonpig card tomorrow so it'll get there Thursday.

 

[Maud]

Had another newborn night last night. Put her down at 7pm. Finally got her to sleep at 8pm. Up for feeds a 10.30pm, 1.30am and 5.30am. Not sure if this is just her cold or if it's a 6 month thing?

 

[Pumpkin9]

Thomas had a cold around 6 months, he woke up on the night but didn't need feeds. Perhaps it's a growth spurt/ leap

 

[Jojo84]

Could be the cold... Was it definitely hunger? When Luke is teething and out of sorts he can wake up just for comfort and wants his dummy in and his comforter.

For some reason Luke had a mega lie in thismorning! He slept until 90 lol

 

[Maud]

Yeah she wouldn't settle without boob. Just wakes screaming inconsolably. Maybe she's about to learn to crawl... Or it could be because we've started weaning and she's processing all the new stuff? Or it could just be that she's feeling miserable with sore throat and bunged up nose (which she's shared with us too). Wish she could tell me what's up.
