Congratulations Hearty, I am so happy for you and sobbing away at my computer while I read your post. Can't wait to see some pictures of your baby girl. Also jealous of your 20 min of pushing but I'm glad that part was quick for you.

 

[jenny25]

Thank you so much dazed it means a lot I'm still debating toget a 3d/4d scan xxx

 

[Dazed]

I say go for it if you have the money Jen. If this is going to be your last pregnancy, mine as well go for it.

 

[vickyd]

Jen i was too stressed at the time that i didnt even think of going for a 3/4d scan. I so regret that now! Definately go for it if you can.

 

[jenny25]

Miracles happen, and dreams do come true.
Sometimes in pink, and sometimes in blue.
Waiting so long to have that desire,
Even when your heart feels on fire.
But now I see you, and you are all mine.
That tiny face, and cry so divine.
And all the angels who came before you,
Smile and blow kisses, and help Mommy too.
Never forgetting, how much you are loved.
And cherished, and cuddled, and constantly hugged.
Now sleep little baby, and don't you forget.
You have the "Disco Momma's" to worry and fret.
So Mommy will always have a listening ear.
And someone who has helped dry her tears.



Happy "being a mommy" Amanda!

&

Happy "3 lb wiggly baby ultrasound" Jenn!

Great photo Jen!! Awww! Definitely get a 3D or 4D scan! I had like 5 4D scans (for medical reasons, but still) and they were all so amazing!

This thread has been so exciting with all of the new Disco babies

afm- I am back to work after our trip to South Dakota. We had a blast! Penny did wonderful on the plane ride and was soooo excited. She had a silly little smile plastered on her face the whole time She wanted to touch everything and look out the window. On our way back we even got bumped up to 1st class!

Penny is also officially crawling and pulling her self up on things

 

[jenny25]

Awww how cute hoping xxxx

Tips for colic:

* Baby massage to get all the wind out
* Burping frequently during feeds
* Dr Brown bottles

Also consider other liklihoods such as reflux or milk intolerance. I was told over and over again it was 'colic' - but it wasn't. I'm not even sure colic exists I just think it's the health professionals way of getting out of further investigation as colic doesn't have a cure they just 'grow out of it'.

 

[Jaymes]

Bee was colicky and had reflux. She has extreme excema now, and I took her off milk for 2 weeks and her skin improved slightly. Maybe try switching to a non cows milk formula? I know it took a lot of patience and a lot of soothing. Sometimes things like walking helped, and also rubbing her back, sometimes bouncing her gently. She loved her swing and sleeping in a semi upright position helped too. Just try to remember during the times when it's really bad that it's because he is uncomfortable that he is crying so much. I used gripe water, it's in the US, don't know if the have something similar where you are...

 

[jenny25]

I'm sorry I can't really offer advise its been that long the only thing I remember is that don't use gripe water omg I used it on aarron and he started choking on it , it scared the crap out of me xxx

 

[Sassy_TTC]

He's already lactose intolerant so is on special formula for that! Today he's also been diagnosed with reflux so we've been prescribed gaviscon, it never worked with poppy but fingers crossed it does this time so we can avoid all the meds!

Another reflux/colic/lacto intolerant bubba oh lucky me, it's history repeating itself!!
