So how many of each would I need Suz? X

 

[SBB]

For full time if you wash every other day 3 or 4 nappies, and one wool cover, you hardly ever wash the wool, just air it... You could get 2 if you wanted though..

[babyloulou]

So what are you thinking it's going to come to? Are you ordering a load in bulk for your website? X

 

[SBB]

No not for my site, just for people from my AP meet and you guys if you want them, so they are £19.50 ish for the nappy, £15 ish for the wool cover... So just depends how many you want. Then a bit for postage... Not sure how much yet... Need to also be prepared to pay customs in case it gets stopped... Not sure how much it is on nappies, maybe 16% or 10%

Go to the gym Lisa! Get it over with! U will feel energized if u force yrself.

Jess hopefully u can get an appt soon w another doc and get some help! Ps what is the purpose of nudey time?

 

[lisaf]

I went and I'm glad I did.. but I kind of tweaked something in my knee and foot a little.. oh well, I'm old and falling apart.

 

[lisaf]

oh, and the nap I took while pumping, lol!
By the way... you can pump into ziplock bags in a pinch.. works fine

 

[Onelildream]

Oh my gosh! I have something cool to tell you all!

So, you all know I do CIO...Well, to be honest, I have NEVER had to put it to use yet, because Connor has been a fab sleeper (sorry, Lou!) and after his night routine he has always fallen asleep right after his last feeding... Well, tonight he was wide awake after his last bottle, and I was a bit nervous for what was to come... I knew his routine was totally normal: play, read books, prayers, bath, massage, clean diaper, bottle in the rocking chair with me.... but wide awake.... I put him in his crib (reluctantly, and ready to hear wailing) and turned on the monitor while I washed dishes.... I heard him talk and giggle and play.....and then start heavy breathing! He went right to sleep after he played!!! Isn't that so awesome?!

I am so proud.

 

[Onelildream]

Lisa-I am soooo happy that ziplock didn't come open! Oh my gosh, that woulda sucked!

Suz-You'd be so proud.... We have been dumping our poo in the loo! I told hubs and he was all for it... Oh, and despite Max pooping his pants today (which I totally bleached and turned his blue boxer briefs purple! oh no!), he remembered to flush his poo down too. haha.

Verna-Hope you get some answers tomorrow, Hun! I put your name in the temple so lots of people will be praying for you during your surgery! Hugs!

Jess-Oh, honey, I think you should talk to Joe. Maybe it will give him some perspective...and help you decide what to do. Plus, I would hate for this to be one more thing that distances you two...

Kc-I have the perfect idea: just try to lose on Words with Friends.... That might actually be a challenge for you!

HI TO ALL ELSE!

 

[lisaf]

yeah, well I spoke too soon... the ziploc bag leaked in the fridge!! I had to clean it out with paper towels etc, transfer the bags into a bigger bag since I didn't know which one was leaking etc

Congrats on Connor being such a good self-settler! Daniel has done that once or twice for his naps.. babbling away playing with his hands, then falls asleep. Daycare lady even said today that he did that. Now you and I will probably have to go into hiding for having such good sleepers

 

[Onelildream]

witness protection here we come!

 

[kcw81]

Hi chell and Lisa! Chell great news on Connor! Yay for self settling! Lisa was it a ziplock freezer bag or just a sandwich bag? Weird cuz my ziplocks freezer quart bags never leak do far! They are stronger than lansinohs!

Chell it's funny to hear your night bed routine with Connor- mine with Jimmy is just as lengthy! So funny - wish it was as easy as sitting there with him and then just kissing him and tossing him in the crib and flipping off the light but there are soooo many steps to the routine I don't dare not do them! Good night girls!

 

[lisaf]

it was a generic brand sandwich bag... don't know why I thought it would be ok, lol... I didn't freeze them or do anything tricky with them, Lesson learned.. next time I'll put them right in the gallon sized bag.

 

[SBB]

Verna - if you're on I just wanted to say good luck for today... Will be thinking of you, please update us when you can

Chell I'm glad you're putting the poo in the toilet now...

Sammuel is great at settling too, I love putting him to bed - he's so cute when he's all sleepy! He babbles away then does little sleepy raspberry noises! And he usually opens his eyes just after falling asleep and says 'dad' then goes back!  It's not a real word he doesn't know what he's saying but it's funny that it's always dad!

I'm just putting him down for his nap and he just laid his head on my shoulder and fell asleep... Now... How the hell do I get my arm out?!

X x x

 

[babyloulou]

Awww bless him Suz!! He LOVES his 'Mummy cuddles'!! I'm afraid your arm is stuck now! You just have to lie there til he wakes up!! I'm in the same position - Ben is having his morning nap on my bed- but it's my boob that's stuck not my arm! I left his dummy downstairs by mistake so he's been 'dummying' on my boob for the last hour instead! If I try and remove my nipple, he growls and snatches it back into his mouth! We sure are ruled by these boys!!!

Good luck Verna! We love you

 

[babyloulou]

Oh I've been meaning to tell you girls- for those that remember Sonyabazonya (from our early days in the Clomid Club) I'm still in touch with her on Facebook and she is just in the middle of her first IVF! She's just found out this morning that she has 14 eggs ready for retrieval next week! Everything crossed for her!! She's been TTCing for about 4 years now I think! X

 

[Peach Blossom]

Casey, no purpose to nudey time other than lili likes to be nappy free! Also the nappies are so big that she's not as mobile in them!! x

 

[babyloulou]

I think it is supposed to be good for their skin too isn't it Jess?? X

 

[kcw81]

Hi guys! Good luck verna!! We love u!

Jess I figured there was some cool reason for nudey time like it gives the baby inner peace or something! Ha. You always have these sort of natural secrets to self healing.

Jimmy falls asleep while I am holding him sometimes and if it's nap time i still remove him and put him down. It's awfully adorable tho when you are carrying them and look down and they are just conked out on you snoring. It makes your heart melt.

 

[SBB]

Lou sometimes I will sammuel to stay on the boob for ages so that I can just lay there with him, instead of getting up tO do some boring job!!
I got my arm out and left him and he decided a long blink was enough and got up! Just putting him back down now and he should have a good nap...

Good luck to Sonya - 14 eggs wow!!

Yeh it's good for their skin apparently to have nappy free time. I always let S crawl around nudey after his bath for a while. And I try to after he's been on the potty or nappy change...
