was up from 4am and ended up having to hold Harry until he slept - didn't get back to bed until 6am. Spoke to HV and she reckons he might be in pain from teething or wind so will try to address that. Seems like everyone else baby sleeps through apart from mine! Oh well, will keep trying to get him to sleep and I'm sure siome nights will be better than others (she says hopefully). It was nice not having him in our room and having to creep around so much in the night, so something positive I guess...
trying to sit up though not quite managing it! He makes me smile even on my worst days and even though being pregnant has made my health worse, I wouldn't change it as I have my lovely Harry I will try and catch up with your journals when I get a chance, but hope all your babies are doing well and hope you ttc-ers catch that egg real soon!
haven't posted for ages! His sleeping isn't too bad touch wood, so that's something. He really is a wiggle bubba though and won't sit still at all in my lap or anywhere - he needs constant distraction, which is exhausting, so still having to stay with my parents alot of the time. I'm glad they're there, but really want to be able to live in my own home, you know?
he loves to be pulled up though and loves to 'stand'. Harry sounds like he is coming on amazingly.
He's such a lovely little boy,despite being a bit of a grumpster... Grumpy but gorgeous I say! Just want to write everything down but it's so hard. I should take notes as you forget all the little things they do... think I'll try steamed carrot tomorrow...
Lovely to see you pop on hun,
I know things have been tough for you. I hope you don't find it condescending when I say that it is difficult enough without any medical issues.... It just goes to show what a good job you are doing though!
James isn't keen on his highchair and isn't near to sitting yet? He has a big head bless him and I think that weighs him down
I think we're going to leave the weaning for a bit too, I've been trying a bit here and there and I think it's too early.
I can't believe we're gearing up to out babies half Birthday. Can you believe our boys are nearly 6 months?? It blows my mind
xxxxxxx
Thank you. I can't believe our babies are nearly six months either xx
Harry is doing so well!
He can now roll onto his tummy, but still doesn't like being on his tummy, so cries when he gets there. He loves looking around and is so curious about everything. He wants to be on his feet all the time and also would be carried around constantly if we let him. He's desperate to get moving and gets frustrated that he can't. When he sucks his dummy and talks at the same time, it sounds like he's saying 'golly, golly, golly' which always makes me laugh. He's learning to self settle a bit, but still needs his dummy. In the morning when he wakes up, he doesn't cry, but just lies in his cot talking to himself and then when I go in to see he he's all smiley like he's happy to see me. He laughs when I blow on his feet or blow raspberries on his neck. He's nearly sitting on his own and he can sit in his high chair. Trying BLW and he had his first taste of food today - it was just a bit of green pepper whcih he didn't seem to mind - it got gummed quite a lot anyway
I love him so much and feel very lucky to have him xxxxxxxxx
ps he weighed 15lbs 7oz on Tues, so is doing well
)
You've come so far in 6 months! Rolling over now, nearly sitting unaided, trying new foods all the time and just generally being lovely and cute - what will the next 6 months hold??
He's sleeping mostly ok (touch wood) although he still can't go to sleep without his dummy.
