Thanks Hun he's been ok the past half hour sat in his chair think the calpol kicked in X

I wonder what the third jab is that you get in the UK. In in nz and we get two jabs and the oral gel (for rotovirus). My nurse said runny poos are caused by the oral gel they get.

 

[donnarobinson]

We have a new meningitis b jab do u have that one over there ? X he's really upset again X.

 

[embeth]

Hope cruz feels better soon Donna poor thing xx

I'm sat down with Isabelle still strapped to me in the carrier! Don't want her to wake but needed to sit down! Feeling very achey and not great today.. Hope I'm not getting something! Xx

Olivia had her jabs this morning the picture of her face crying is stuck in my head she was looking at me smiling when they jabbed her
9lb5oz... Dropped down a centile but they don't seem concerned
X

 

[Spudtastic]

We have meningococcal. Is that the same as meningitis c? I'll have to look at my book. There were so many diseases vaccinated against in one jab.

 

[Bevziibubble]

I think it's the meningitis B one that James had.

 

[PitaKat]

Sorry to hear you've got your period back already, Lucy! I got mine at 12 months pp last time, hoping it'll stay away for that long (or longer!) this time.

Hi girls,

Well I had Isabelle's 6 week check.. Doctor is the same one that has done all my children she is lovely. All was great she is a chunk and has moved to the 91st centile for weight height and head circumference!! We spoke to her about the hips.. She looked at the scan reports and said really doesn't look like there's a lot wrong. When she did the test they do she said no clicks or anything the only thing was that her slightly off hip is a bit more stuf than the other one. I have noticed this myself.. When her knees bend it just feels like her right leg is a bit more relaxed than her left moving outwards. With the bigger roll of fat at the top of her leg plus I am sure sometimes when I stretch her legs one seems tiny bit longer I'm still convinced she has a problem!🙁 Don't know if I'm looking into things too much.. Never paid attention with my boys. Anyway her specialist appointment came through and is Monday.. Very nervous! Xx

Hugh, just came back from 2 months checkup and everything looked good except she jumped too many percentiles in head growth. Doc didn't seem mich concerned and just said she'd keep an eye on it in later checkups, but I googled and now I'm scared of autism. I wonder if I'll ever feel like all is good, seems like I had anxiety since I found out I was pregnant.

 

[donnarobinson]

My good boy sleep 7.10-4.10 bottle & back of til 7.30am X

 

[Frustrated1]

How much does he take per bottle Donna and how many bottles does he have a day? I'm currently giving Corey 3 X 5oz bottles of Neocate formula and trying to breastfeed three times as well. He usually takes all 5oz but sometimes only takes 4oz. No idea how much I should be giving though. The tin seemed to indicate 3oz which would never be enough!

 

[embeth]

Danna Isabelle's head has gone from a bit over the 50th to the 91st! Doctor wasn't concerned, she has also jumped the same for height. My ds3 has always had a huge head... Off the centile chart! He's fine bright and happy 2 year old! X

 

[donnarobinson]

He's been a bit funny with his milk after his jabs but generally he has 5/6oz every 3/4 hours it was settled down to 5oz every 4 hours till his jabs and normally one in the night so I'd say around 25oz in 24 hours but it can differ greatly . Like today he's only drinking 4oz every 3 hours and If just go with what your doing he will let Uno if he's hungry.
How has he been any improvement with the new milk X

He's has 4 or 5 bottles a day depending on times he has them
It was 7am 11am 3pm & 7pm then would have one sometimes two in the night
Today has been 7.30 10am 1pm will be 5pm and I doubt he will wait til 8 for bed so probably be 7.30 for bed X

 

[DannaD]

Thanks Embeth that's reassuring. Gabrielle also grew a lot, her head went from 10th to 50th percentile, so same jump as yours!

 

[embeth]

I think it's quite normal for their heads to grow like that sometimes.. They stay squashed for a while after birth.. I can't believe Isabelles head is the 91st it doesn't look big to me! X

 

[LillyFleur]

Well my period arrived today, fun! I forgot how much of a cow I am poor DH!!

Elizabeth has been really bad at sleeping since her jabs and think she was going through a growth spurt at the start of this week (she was wanting to feed constantly)

She just can't self settle anymore, she was waking every 40 min the other night today I'm trying to stretch her feeds out to every 3-4 hours (which is what it was previously) I just try distract her a bit from wanting a feed, if she gets upset I get her a bottle, I'm not leaving her to cry.

We don't have a bedtime routine as DH will stay up with her until her last feed and then when she asleep put her down, so tonight we're going to try the whole 'bath, bed & bottle' routine.

Fingers crossed it works!!

 

[Bevziibubble]

Good luck for the routine
