December Dreamers 2010 mummies-keep in touch

I know, but the facebook page is really busy. The only crap thing about the FB page is there isent much general chats about rubbish, its all baby related.
 
I's easier to chat on FB though, I know a lot of girls dont like the baby club because of the rows that happen in there. Its like the trimesters all over again lol xx
 
I didn't even find the trimesters as bad asbaby club! You would think it worse with the hormones but NO!
 
I havent bothered with baby club - it just didnt appeal!

Having problems getting Caitlyn to take a bottle of EBM - she took a couple of bottles a few weeks ago but we got lazy and didnt follow up. No she wont take it from DH or me77Any ideas?

Need to have a certain level of freedom - for example I have my Nanna's 95th birthday lunch Sunday which Caitlyn isnt going to (too hot, noisy and crowded a place for her) and at the moment we will struggle.

Help - last night was awful, in hte end she wouldnt even let DH hold her which was very upsetting for both of us

JUst try and persevere? I never had trouble Freddie taking a bottle whilst i was feeding him EBM so im not much help. Maybe she will take it if she is really hungry? xx
 
She just needs to learn it does the same thing as a boob, just keep trying.
 
Just keep trying. I once had a problem feeding the EBM and he was getting very stressy. I find after a couple of wiggles or so you get the bottle in the right place? He was crying and when he opened his mouth really wide I got more of the teat in his mouth, he instantly settled and started sucking away. Sounds cruel, but it worked a treat and since then he has reconised bottles bring food also (I have to mix an onuce or so of milk in with gripe water in order for him to get the stuff).
Also the temperture, the warmer it is the more interested he tends to be. He will drink it at room temp but he's not so bothered about it.
 
What kind of bottles are you using, that might have an affect.
 
My baby will only take a bottle of ebm if I am not in the house. If he knows I am there somewhere, forget it. When I leave him with someone though, he will take it no problem.
 
Im not sure if it will help but when eva wouldnt take the bottle at the hospital for the first few times the MW had to feed her, but she said for me to try this when i was feeding her, put the teat in her mouth and with one of your fingers put in under her chin gently move the move her chin up and down, and it really did work, she started sucking the teat well after a few times of doing that, dunnno if thats any help tho?
 
Does anyones baby cough but isn't ill? Charlie coughs 3 coughs or so at a time throughout the day and night (not sure if he does it when he's fast asleep at night kus I'm sleeping too) & he isn't wheezy or anything. He's been like it for just under a couple of weeks n doesn't seem to be getting worse :shrug: My mum thinks it's kus his throat is maturing. I think perhaps he has silent reflux because he pulls a funny face sometimes as though he's tasting acid n is coughing to get rid of it :shrug:

Ivy does a weird little coughing thing too :shrug: Like Charlie she definitely doesnt have a cold. It could be something to do with reflux maybe, Ivy is very sicky and she gets hiccups all the time, we havent worried too much about it though because she is gaining weight and it doesnt seem to cause her any really bad pain.
 
Thanks on the EBM advice ladies. :kiss:

Hows all with noah?? xx
