Anyone got any reccomendations for teething toys? Louis has been chewing in his hands like mad over the last weeks or two. Hv said he's probably just found them an wants to play but sil looked and found a small teeny tiny tooth coming through. He's not unhappy with it just chewing lots and drooling. X

 

[OmiOmen]

CJ can't seem to get the hang of teething toys yet. But the ones filled with water that you put in the fridge worked well with JJ.

 

[babyface15]

I'm sorry your men are causing you trouble again pebbie and omi

chat I put in a vote for little Marlee as well.

omg zfbaby, did you ever think you'd new saying Louis was sttn?! this soon! you must feel like a whole new person
im glad your pnd symptoms are getting better too!
as for teething, I have calla a Sophie the giraffe, she kinda chews on it, but she's not teething yet so I'm not sure how it will be!

 

[Zfbaby]

Thanks baby, my sil said the giraffe too. I'll have a look when we go out tomorrow.
Yes I feel so much more refreshed than I did before.it's easier to cope when he does melt down as its bit as often and usually over pretty quickly. Most of the improvements have been since we've been at my sil house so u hope it continues when we get home.

 

[pebbie1]

Awe zfbaby, I'm so glad you finally get to enjoy being a mummy! Well done for sticking through it
Marielle really liked Sophie too. You get them at Mothercare x

 

[babyface15]

That is such great news ZFbaby I am really so happy for you. You really went through a lot in those first two months so it's so nice to hear that things are finally getting better

Calla has her shots tomorrow Has anyone had theirs yet? What should I expect.
It's probably going to break my heart if she cries!!!

babyface Marlee has had 2 lots now she was very grizzly on her first ones but she had her 2nd lot the other day and was just like normal x

 

[OmiOmen]

CJ had his shots today after the 8 week baby check. He cried for less than a minute and hasn't even seemed extra drowsy or less hungry since. We have to go back in three months to have his testicles checked again though.

Zf that is amazing about Louis. Did they cut his tt?

Congrats char on the competition. I would love to put Matilda in one of those.

A good teething toy for this age group is called the gummy glove.

Hope you are all well. I am rushing about like a blue arsed fly. Just want a day to chill and catch up. Xx

 

[pebbie1]

Passion, those gloves look great!

I've started a diet yesterday and lost 5lbs already in 24 hours!!! Brilliant

Markus also slept through the night last night. Amazing as it took Marielle 8.5 months to do that for the first time

 

[pebbie1]

Markus is growing way too quick! He sat in the bumbo today and loved it! He keeps his head still and sits there laughing!

 

[CLH_X3]

He looks so grown up pebble

 

[babyface15]

oh wow pebbie he's doing so well I can't believe he sttn, are you still bfing?? what a dream. callas been up more frequently lately, i'm so drained

omni what is wrong with your boys testicles? hope all is well x

my appt, with the public health nurse went well. calla cried when she jabbed her, but is doing well now. She told me I need to work on her neck control though. what do you ladies do for this? I need to do more tummy time, but she cries her eyes out

 

[pebbie1]

Marielle HATED tummy time and so does Markus. I just used to sit up Marielle on my lap and hold her around the waist so she had to control her head. Worked very well and she sat very early on. I'm doing the same with Markus. He'll now have 10 minutes in the Bumbo every day x

Today is my appointment in hospital to discuss being sterilised. I'm slightly panicking now as my sister never managed to have a second child due to matured eggs and I've always felt I should try to help her. I'm sure she said egg donation is forbidden in holland though. I need to check with her now!!!

[OmiOmen]

Markus is such a strong and aware baby!

CJ has testicles which will probably go down by themselves but we have to get them checked in 3 months and keep an eye out for any lumps around them in case of a hernia. I think at the 8 week check the GP made a comment that JJ's were larger but didn't seem worried.

CJ doesn't like tummy time either but almost always wants holding upright and he moves his neck around then.

Wow, that is so nice of you to consider egg donation for your sister.

 

[Zfbaby]

Hi all,

Omi, what sort of solution do you use with your cloth wipes? We've now finished our mammoth stock of disposable wipes and we need to move on to cloth.

Babyface- do you use a boppy for tummy time? Lou hated it too at first but I started using the cushion and now he's fine on his tummy.

Pebbie! I really want a bumbo but wasn't sure what age they could be used from. Think I'll order one now and see hiw it works out.

 

[OmiOmen]

We just use water inn a spray bottle. Once a day we use CJ's cream after we fully wash him down.

Cj keeps trying to roll over although only gets on his side. It always seems to be in a bid to escape a nappy change.

 

[babyface15]

No I haven't used a pillow for tummy time, maybe that would make her more settled. ;I'm also trying to give her more time sitting on my lap unaided like you Pebbie. Sweet little thing has a head in the 90th percentile so she needs to have an extra strong neck lol
I also have a bumbo, I think it's time to break that out

I hope everything is OK with CJ, Omi

Calla spit up 10 times last night after her feed!! Big globs of it that would hit the floor. I was almost having a heart attack, but she seemed happy as a lark and smiling through the whole thing :S

Louis is the same he giggles and has huge grins after spitting up.
