End of May 2013 babies CONTINUED..

Babyface- I can remember when faith was born, my partner was always pretty crap at helping and after a while it gets easier with the baby's and the men help out more.
 
Zfbaby- hope your feeling better soon! I think it's totally understandable that you have developed pnd if your baby crys 24/7 and doesn't sleep ... I hope you feel better soon

Char - I can get back into most my pre preg clothes n tbh I never really left then just went into some of the bigger sized stuff I had! ...

Diets going gd so will be back to pre preg weight soon!
 
So last night had the most horrible night ever! Woke at 1.30am to Marlee's sensor alarms going off, felt like my heart jumped out my throat! I grabbed her out the moses basket within a second and to my relief she was breathing, I have got a doctors appointment today as I am concerned as to why they went off in the first place, such a scary night all I can think about is what if I didn't have them alarms would I have woke up to something much worse! :( :( :( :(
 
Wow char- sorry you ha such a scare. I hope all is ok. I hve heard those sensor mats can glitch quite easily and go off for no reason. I hope that's the case.
 
That sounds awful Char. I hope your not feeling too shaken up today. :flower:
 
thanks clh! I hope all your ohs are helping more with your second kids.

omg char, how scary. what do the sensors pick up??

hubs took the baby out for a walk last night to give me some sleep. she ended up going 6.5 hours between feeds, longest yet!!
 
Thanks ladies and babyface they pick up movement, if nothing happens for 20 seconds the alarm sounds, I went to the doctors and they said she is perfectly fine and they think she was probably in a deep sleep and just didnt move but was still breathing.
I hope to god it never happens again as it was the worse feeling ever!
 
Hope it don't happen again char...

It happened to me once when my daughter was in her own bed in her room, iv never seen my oh wake up so quick! And literally jump out of bed to her room... Lucky it was a false alarm as she moved all the way to the other end of her bed!


Is anyone else having this problem? We put Aston in his bed after a feed between 10-11 (when we are going to bed) he's goes in fine to his bed then and stays there til his next bottle but when he wakes between 2.30-3.30 for a feed he just whines for ages and we end up putting I'm in our bed with us to til morning (next feed) ...

I honestly can't remember how much our daughter got in our bed as I'm the kind of person that doesn't put kids in my be unless really ill...

Any ideas how to get him back down in his bed after his bottle ?
 
wow char I hope it doesn't happen again :( is she in her own room?

Clh this has happened to me a few times after her 4am feed. she won't go to bed unless I put her in the bed with us. I'm really not a fan of that either I don't want her getting in the habit of coming in our bed, but I'm so tired!! not sure what to do either
 
Glad everything seems okay Char.

CLH, DS1 would only sleep next to me and there was zero room to try and get him to do anything different. Once DS2 has fed and got a clean nappy on he will pretty much settle himself happily in the cot although seems to stay away longer when he wakes up early in the morning. Both were treated the same so I can't help but think it is just part of their personality.

I'm having a similar ish problem with Alastair - he's now going a good couple of hours asleep between each feed, but it takes a good 3 hours to settle him back to sleep in his Moses basket after he's woken, he really hates it in there. He will fall asleep happily on me, but getting him back in his bed is mission impossible. I'm torn between letting him sleep with us or continuing with the Moses basket hassle!

Oh and here he is!

Aww, little ducky Alastair is looking so cute! He has a real little man expression on the second photo too. Whenever Cooper smiles you can tell it is still just gas. He does get an annoyed look on his face whenever DS1 tries to kiss him or hold his hand though.
 
Awwww Ducky, love the little smile! How very cute :)
 
Aw sweet little thing!! <3

we stayed at my in laws last night. I was a bit apprehensive but I think I should come here more often. Mil took the baby in her room so we could sleep. I think she kept soothing her back to sleep when shed wake for milk though bc she went 7+ hrs between feeds and mil said she had a restless sleep :S I'm so engorged today... Although well rested :)

Christ! Nothing and no one could soothe Alastair back to sleep when he wakes hungry! That boy loves the boobs way too much :p

I can't believe we've all had our babies you know! I wonder how some of the other people who used to comment on earlier parts of this thread are getting on.
 
Gosh, no Cooper won't settle at all if hungry and I find him to be otherwise laid back. Then again he often cries if someone else, even DH, tries holding him when he is full.

Your MIL must have super powers to sooth a booby obsessed baby!
 
Hahahahahaha no soothing Markus either. If he wants milk, he wants it yesterday lol! The holiday is absolutely fab! We are at hubbies inlaws but leaving to go to the western med tomorrow where we'll stay on a campsite :) Markus is enjoying the nice, warm weather x

Aww he is looking so cute. Glad your having a good time. I'm amazed you have gone abroad so soon with so little fuss. I feel stressed just thinking about a holiday next year with a 1 and 4 year old!
 
aw how sweet and alert! xx
She kept giving her the dummy so maybe that's why. or maybe I really am overfeeding her by giving her booby every time she wakes??

so my mil asked if she could take lo for an overnight sometime soon once I start pumping. I was a little shocked and said not until at least she's on solids. mil seemed so disappointed she'd have to wait so long.

I know it'd be great for me and dh to have a night alone but I can't imagine being away from my baby while breastfeeding.

when did you
ladies have you're first night away from your other Los??
& how did it go?
 
I was away for 2 nights from
Marielle when she was 2 months old. It was really hard and I was really miserable both days and cried! I took a little vest she had worn and kept smelling it lol! For getting some sleep though it was amazing, but we were away for business so I still has to get up early :(
But if your mil wants to have her, do it! Drop her off late at night and then have a nice lie in and pick her up straight after that :)

Omi, I'm probably more worried about next years holiday lol! It's so easy to go away now. Markus just feeds and sleeps so its really easy! X
