End of May 2013 babies CONTINUED..

passion, thanks this is a great idea. I've only ever done the cradle hold as well so maybe a new positioning will help.

passion you make me laugh over here! no worries, i've retired most of my old clothes lol

ugh I know. From all the coverage of kates 'baby bump' I only once heard an ob come on and explain how the uterus needs time to shrink. You're right about Kim k too, I would say when she finally does come out of hiding she will be looking unrealistically fit :S

omni I remember you saying how big you looked and felt compared to last pregnancy, no wonder from such a big baby in there!

here we go for another night..
Hate the nights. Do you guys do anything to make the night wakings more bearable? I'm thinking of getting a TV for the room
 
It would seem I may be about a UK14 now so am starting to lose weight quicker now I think. Last time the weight dropped off the fastest between 2-3 months so maybe that will happen again.

I think a TV is a good idea. I take my laptop up so I can use it with my spear hand or watch TV through it on a night.

CJ is about to outgrow the carry-cot attachment for his pram, which we also take off the pram to use for him to sleep in the day in. They are supposed to be laying flat at this point and his neck isn't really anywhere near strong enough for the pushchair attachment. I know it wouldn't last him 6 months like it says it does but I thought we would get more use out of it.
 
I mostly just use my smart phone for internet but I'm not sure I should be keeping it so close to her head all the time!

oh wow that's crazy. I wonder if they make something for bigger babies?

calla has been spitting upa lot again this past week or so. and even having some projectile vomiting :( she seems so unsettled. I'm going to take her to the breastfeeding clinic tmw to talk to the nurses. Poor little fart
 
His bedside crib should be until 6 months too and I think we will be lucky to get to 3. He seems to have had his first real growth spurt over the past few days too. Because he is upset with teething he never wants to be put down and he is pretty heavy and I'm not that strong right now. Obviously I knew he would be big but I didn't expect him to be so big so fast.

I hope Calla fees better soon. CJ is sick quite a lot, JJ never threw up at all as a baby so it came as a shock.
 
Matilda is sicking up quite a bit too. She turned her bath milky white! I think it is something to do with their digestive systems maturing.

I am going to my first slimming world group tomorrow (I will not divert to the pub this time!) and I am on day 4 of the 30 day shred. So I have started - I just need to stop drinking alcohol. I loooove cider in the summer, but one bottle is 500 calories! Eek.

I think they lie to us about how long babies use things for. Moses basket, carrycot, baby bath etc - max 3 months! Newborn clothes - two weeks if they fit at all.

You'll have to stop counting calories if you're joining Slimming World! Cider is fine to have on this diet, I had half a bottle off bulmers last night, only 6 syns :D
I've been going three weeks now and lost just under a stone, I'm finding it a fab diet!
 
That s amazing! I went today and am 10 stone 2. I want to be 9 stone. I am a bit worried that it seems you can eat so much food. I have all the books to read tonight and am looking forward to doing meal planers. Aldi's here I come!

Are you on the easy plan?

One woman in my group has lost 3 stone in 19 weeks! It is incredible. I just hope I don't find it too much of a pain in the arse.
 
when will you put him in his crib omni?

hehe I love you guys and your stones! I always have to do a bit of math first

seems like a good diet good work losing so much already ducky

what's cider? like apple cider? i could use a drink right now lol but I want a nice cold beer

passion are you still bfing at all? I had calla weighed again, she's 13 lbs 4 oz. the nurses weren't concerned with the spitting up as she'd gained 7.5 oz this week. As for the lopsidedness the plan from kellymom really worked and the girls are looking more even already :)
 
I think we will buy a full sized cot very soon. It seems like he is taking up more room in it each day. We should have just got one right away really since there is plenty of space for it in our room.

CJ is sick a lot too but it doesn't seem to stop his weight gain either.
 
oh yes omni, never asked but how are you finding the new place? all settled in yet?
 
We are, thanks. It seems odd having so much more space still though. For some reason the fact it is bigger and detached makes me feel more alone when DH is working night. :wacko:

I was worried about the amount of food you can eat too, but it seems the more you eat the more you lose tbh. Certainly seems to work anyway! I've got my weigh in tonight so fingers crossed!
 
Well done ladies for loosing weight and your diets.
I'm still in holland and my brain seems to tell me I should stuff as much Dutch food as I can in me before I go home on Monday and I've been doing just that! lol. And I'm already looking forward to 4 more days of stuffing before my diet starts again next week :)
 
What kind of food is Dutch? I was thinking waffles but aren't they more Belgian?

No baby I only bf for a week :cry: but she is doing brilliantly on formula :thumbup: I have only had her weighed twice. Prob should go again but I know she is growing and is healthy. Maybe I should go. :shrug::holly::holly::holly::holly::xmas3::holly:

(Never used those before lol!) :haha:

Anyway.. How was your weigh in ducky? I need to put together a shopping lst of store cupboard staples and evening snacks.

:holly: that's for your new even boobies!!
 
omg passion you are so funny!! I love the bouncing boobies haha haha
I'm sure Matilda is just perfect, I like to go get calla weighed mostly because I usually have a ton of questions to be answered on this or that. first time mom problems lol...

glad to hear you're settled omni. our new place is much bigger than the old and I feel that way in the nights too. plus I've been watching long island medium all day and have myself scared half the time.

ohh pebbie, enjoy it while you can hun. I'm sure it's delish
how are you feeling about things after being away from the hubby for a few days?

good on you little ducky! how's ally doing these days?

Calla discovered she had legs tonight in the bath. She would splash and stare at them with such determination, how adorable :cloud9:
 
zfbaby I forgot you told us you were diagnosed with pnd. how are you doing hun? do you feel your getting enough support at home? xx
 
Hahahahaa passion, you never fail to amuse :)

There's a lot of oven dishes, chips with different snacks, crisps, bread types and of course a LOT of cheese hahahaha. It all has its own flavour which I miss. Even pasta sauces are different than in the uk and I love the Dutch ones.

Babyface I must say I've mostly not thought about hubby this week. I've been enjoying my time with my family but I must admit I'm slightly starting to miss him now. I hope we've both cleared our heads so we can have a fresh start when we get back!

Passion I've only had Markus weighed twice. They told me as well that I only needed to weigh him once a month. Will go next week and have him weighed just because I'm curious how much he's gained
 
Lol, Passion.

Babyface, I watch TV before bed while giving CJ a long feed and won't watch anything remotely scary because I find the house more scary. Lol.

I have not got CJ weighed for 2 weeks now and because he has had a growth spurt I am wondering what he is now.

Zfbaby are you as irritated at your BTP as me right now?
