Hi ya, we have been away the weekend caravanning. Had such a brilliant time. Felt really sad to be leaving this morning - wanted to cry! but I am also due on my period tomorrow, that might be why. lol.
Lennie was great. We kept him in his carry cot attachment for sleeping and it was fine, he slept great. We also took him swimming for the first time and he loved it - but he was due a sleep before we went in, so by the time he had a splash about in the pool he was super tired and suddenly screaming! OH took him out and I stayed in with Eve and when we got back to the caravan Lennie was zonked out in OH lap, with still just his towel wrapped around him. He looked really cute.
Lennie is loving banana! Today I was feeding him round some friends and wasnt concentrating and he was going "ah ah" with his mouth open for me to feed him!
Have any of u start using a walker or high chair yet, a friend of mine just offered me both
Lennie is in a high chair - his is one of the reclining ones and is super padded etc. I think it was a bit expensive - around £100, but OH dad wanted to buy him one and that is what he came round with - I told him off for it being too much money. He loves seeing Lennie in it.
I never used a walker on Eve and prob won't on Lennie. We also don't really have much room for him to scoot around with furniture and wolly rugs - I don't think he would get far - but on the other hand, if someone was giving one to me, I think I would use it and change the room around. lol.
I've never used a walker and wouldn't I don't think I would consider ajumparoo type thing.
Whats a jumparoo?
Just to let you all know, babesx3 who was a feb lovebug but sadly baby Charlie died at 18 weeks gestation, has given birth to her rainbow baby Hayden today. I am so pleased for her
Thats such lovely news. I remember what happened to Charlie. It was so sad.
Finished school already, where are you from Juicy?
I've got all the school to do when my eldest starts pre school. (even though I've been doing then for the past five years, as a childrens nanny)
Does anyone know if and where I maybe able to but a bouncy chaire that folds away?? That may fit in a suitcas though?
Hi Jem
I'm from Ireland they get the whole month of July and august off school so loads of FUN lol
I got a fold up bouncer in Mother Care with travel bag inall
I used walker on my DD and DS so I will be using it aging but not for a few weeks, my friend is giving me a high chair so I might as well take it try it out. I can't believe my Lo will be 5 months tomorr weeks are flying by
For those who are weaning what do u think about potatoes????
I've not used them yet........prob won't until 6 months. I always thought shouldnt as first food because of glueten.........but i've just looked into it and it it says potatoes are gluten free.......so why does potatoes have this stigma?
I don't even look forward to bed now over sleep reg plus she is getting very use to sleeping in the bed with me 2 bad habit I know but I do anything for a sleep at this stage
anyone else using the grow bags aren't they just the cutest so Cosy looking too
They are really cute. I love waking up and seeing Lennie is his. He looks like hes in a little cacoon. Sainsburys done a "hungry caterpillar" one. It was really sweet and only £12.
Juicy we're using grobags, never did with the others but I'm loving them! Izzy used to co sleep with us all the time but we managed to get her out!! I know jet what you mean about anything for a sleep, I'm sure it'll get better and you'll get hef out
How was everyone elses sleep? We are lucky that izzy sttn now but she wakes up at 6.30 whatever day it is, would love a weekend lie in izzy!
We have got dd2's gymnastics competition today, that should be intrrestng with izzy. I just hope u dint have to take her out and miss it.
We feel lucky with how Lennie sleeps. Most nights he will go 10 hours. Last night he went 9pm to 9.30am. BUT, that was with a 10 minute nap in the afternoon. So he needed it!
Boo ti sickness eve, hope it goes soon
Well izzy was really good at gym she slept had milk smiled winningly at the women next to me and rolled over about 6 times. I think perhaps she's cracked it
I'm dreading her doing it on the changemat during a dirty change!! The good thing is for those who hate tummy time she haas done this with hardly any tummy time si don't worry or feel bad cos I did!!
Glad to hear it! Lennie still rubbish on tummy time - not very strong in his arms and doesnt lift his upper body. Is Lennie the only one not doing this? He does roll onto his side though so he's getting there.
