June Bundles of Joy - 2016

Boo, I told my husband to not interact. And he didn't listen! Otherwise we keep it kight and noisy during the day and dark at night. Sometimes she will nap, eat, then want to nap again! I need to do a better job at keeping her awake.
 
I wouldn't stress too much starlight, at this age they're still able to sleep really deeply even when it's bright and super noisy, but that definitely changes as they get older. Just carry on doing what you're doing and eventually she'll settle into the routine you're aiming for, just in the meantime don't feel bad about her napping too much during the day you're not doing anything wrong x
 
I was always one that believed with my first sleep breeds sleep so sleep away littles!

Teeny I'm so sorry about the bed situation :(

And angel yeah I think my smell has gone metallic like really old blood thankfully. Seems very town today and having a lot. Hoping that means it'll get out sooner!
 
I agree! At this young stage they can nap deeply any place any where!
 
Yep! If G wants to sleep nothing will stop her :haha:

Look at all this! This is what the random lady from school gave to me. There's 8 crib sheets, two blankets, 7 cardies, 10 sleepsuits, 2 sleeping bags, 8 full outfits, tons of vests plus loads of tops and leggings. Loads of it is from next and M&S too - I can't believe someone can be so kind to a complete stranger! I'll have to get her a nice gift but I've no idea what - I don't even know her name!!

Pixie, how nice!!

Started tummy time today. We only did it for a few minutes but she seems to like it so far!

Teeny, hope everything is ok <3
 
Congratulations on the new arrivals. I'm sorry for lack of input but Georgia's reflux has really stepped up a gear and she's been inconsolable for hours on end :-( I've spoken to an IBCLC and she thinks all her symptoms could potentially be CMPA so wants me to do a food diary and let her know how Georgia's weight is next week (CMPA babies classicy jump or fall centiles) now that her tongue tie is sorted. She's finally sleeping longer than 5 minutes for the first time since lunch today.
 
Pixie - that all looks lovely, it's a wonderful gesture.


It's so difficult with them learning day and night, we're really loud during the day and she sleeps through it all, at night she'll wake every hour. I can't wait till she sleeps longer, this is exhausting!
 
Congratulations on all the new arrivals!!

Sorry been away from here for a little bit been kept on my toes :lol:

Lovely photos of all the babies too :cloud9:
 
Sydney is changing so much :) constantly making noises now and chattering away smiles are very often now specially to her brother.

I recommend swaddle wraps aswell well it works for us she had colic and was really unsettled sometimes this worked wonders to help her drift to sleep making her feel secure and wrapped up :)

What symptoms does she have Dory? X
Click to expand...

Obviously reflux is the main one and she's started with a regular cough (though I suspect that's more a reaction to reflux rather than cmpa). Also horrendous eggy wind which causes her a painful tummy. Lots of sick and choking (the reflux is mostly silent). She's had puffy eyes recently but again that could be down to crying, not cmpa.

The biggest is her feeding when it's really bad. She'll feed happily for 5 minutes, come off herself and within 5 minutes she's inconsolable with pained crying until she's sick, farts, burps or feeds (and them the cycle starts again.
 
Gorgeous Sydney!!

Oh dory how sad for poor Georgia hopefully if it is CMPI then going dairy free will sort it for her. What a little poppet that sounds really difficult xxx

Starlight I have t done any tummy time yet eek! Apart from the time he spends on my chest which is a lot!!

He still seems so little but Arthur was 9lb 2oz when the health visitor came :) Which puts him at 9th centile real time, but 75th corrected. :cloud9:
 
Dory - I'm really sorry to hear about Georgia's reflux, I hope she feels better soon and that you find out soon what the problem is :hugs:
 
Róise sleeps better in the day than the night too, or so it seems to me! She's been very sicky today so we've had to hold her a lot to stop her throwing up. Karli, can you get baby Gaviscon at the pharmacy or do you need a prescription? Our health visitor told us to get carobel for silent reflux but it's a faff; I don't know why she didn't suggest Gaviscon (I only found out about it later).

Dory, sorry to hear that. I hope you can get to the bottom of the issue. Poor little Georgia.

Pixie, great that little G passed her hearing test :) & how lovely of that mum!

Beautiful picture of Rupert, Poppy & Sydney :)

Hope you get a bed soon Teeny!

Starlight we're planning to start tummy time this weekend too :)

Rhi, i'm just sorry for you dealing with all that pain :hugs:

Good news on Arthur's weight gain Boo!

Oh, just to make you all want to kill me - DH got up this morning with Róise about 3 & then stayed up with her as she wouldn't settle (I didn't even hear her after waking him at 3 to get up; I feel a bit bad about that) so I got approaching 8 hours sleep!!
 
Lol squig I don't want to kill you. I just want to be you!

Health visitor is coming tomorrow to do G's 6-8 week check. I really hope she's reached 8lbs!
 
How long does everyone keep their baby upright after a nightly feeding? (If you do that)?
