--Lion Cubs - Mummy and Baby Group!-- We are all One Year Old!

[ShadowRat]

OK, front page all nice and updated again A few more have popped recently but I can't just "steal" the info from Cleckner's list in third tri any more cos she is off to hospital today for the start of her induction (yay!!!! Emma will be with us so soon!!!) Will try to get the info from the August thread soon, but right now am super sleepy and need to feed Vince before I go to bed myself!

*Am aware that I'm 95% talking to myself in here for now!!! hehehe*

[ShadowRat]

Hey Soph, do you realise Vince and Summer have the same birthday??? She is sooooo cute in your avater too, and that little pic next to her ticker What a little beauty!

*off to bed for now!*

[Mimiso]

Shadow, Vince really had you going there hey, the dummy falling in the wee is just classic. Mimi decided to poo in the bath which was just disgustingly awful - dont know if it was as bad as the sticky yellow poo Vince did but it surely wound me up as she ended up covered in it so I had to take her out of the bath and run some more water for her - very impressive.......

Yes, the cream helped, her belly button is nice and neat too. Have been really busy today, my four year old had an appointment with speech therapy, then I had the plumbers round and finally the health visitor. Waiting around and rushing around really left me feeling exhausted. Mimi did her usual wake up at 11pm routine yesterday and I only got to bed at 3pm. Hope she doesnt do a repeat performance today as she has been up for a couple of hours in the day today. Hope Vince has a quiet night too

 

[Mimiso]

Hey, just noticed that Vince is exactly one week younger than Mimi

 

[ShadowRat]

how sweet Happy three-weeks to Mimi today, then!!! And happy two-weeks to Vinnie

He had an ok-ish night in the end, but did manage to wangle two hours in mummy and daddy's bed between 2am and 4am somehow... Hmm.... Not sure I want to make a habit of that!!

Got a bunch of PMs to reply to today (yay!!! that means this group should start filling up soon!) but daddy is out at the shops and Vince is whinging in his moses basket, so we will see how many replies I can actually get out to people!!

Happy Tuesday all you Lion Cubs mummies!!! xxxx

 

[HeidiLSparks]

Can't wait to start seeing the later August mummies popping, spare a thought for those still going through that awful waiting around time to you girls, if you're reading

[ShadowRat]

So Dion is our biggest baby so far, and teeny-tiny little Kara is our smallest (at birth weights, of course!) I wonder who is heaviest by now?! We're hoping to take Vince to the local drop-in centre this week to see what his weight is now, we reckon he's probably back up past his birth weight again by now, maybe about 3.5/3.6 kg (hmmm what's that in old money??? I don't think in pounds and ounces any more!!!)

[Mimiso]

Congratulations to all the new mummies and hope to see you all posting once you have established your routines. Hi Heidi, how is your little princess, hope ok. Shadow hope you and Vince are fine today and happy two weeks to him....... Well my princess got weighed yesterday and she is now 4.2kg, her birth weight was 3.6 so quite a massive gain I reckon. Mind you I am not surprised, she is such a guzzler..........

 

[ShadowRat]

Hehe, sounds like a good healthy gain to me Mimi!!! I am getting slightly worried that I'm overdoing the Facebook photos a bit But see, our family and friends are all around the world, so it's really the easiest way to share these special early moments! But people must be getting sick of seeing "Naomi has uploaded yet more photos of Vince on Facebook" LOL!!

 

[smith87999]

Facebook does make it easy shadow... I think it is great.... and I love your picture of Vince..so very cute...

We are all doing good... my boys are loving their new little brother... lots of kisses for 'baby gage' and 'it is my turn to hold him' so that is great...

I am late every where I go... I swear you have to add 10 minutes per child to get out the door on time...

I will get it down... so far staying home is my favorite place... haven't tried shopping with the four boys yet... that will be interesting to say the least...

Very excited for Cleckner.... today she will have her little girl... can't wait to see pics...

Glad we are all moving over....

I will try to keep posting but time is so precious now...

 

[costgang]

just wanted to pop in and say hi to everyone, how are we all doing?

 

[HeidiLSparks]

Hey ladies!

I am also so excited for Cleck. I can not wait to see her little precious girl.

Caylee is doing very well. Little thing had jaundice and thrush already haha. At her appt last week she was down to 7 pounds and 1 oz and at her appt yesterday she was 7 pounds 15 oz!!!! My little porker is growing haha. She sleeps very well and wakes up twice a night, at 3:30 to 4:00 am and 7:00 am she eats and goes right back to bed

 

[PrincessSoph]

what time was Vince born hun?? hes adorable. cant believe they are 2 weeks already hey?!

Summer was 6lb 11 and half oz. The birth was ok - the actual labour was only 2 hrs 25 mins but i had a lot of pains from induction the night before which were nearly as bad as labour pains.

She is settling in good - totally used to being a mum now its weird feels like shes always been here!!

 

[tmr1234]

Hiya ladys congrats on the births of ur babys we are loving having Lucas will put pics up v soon as i get 2 min
I am Loving being a mummy of a baby agen he is so laied back the m/w did hes pku on monday and he didnt even wake up. iam expressing really good iam a day ahead with the milk will never b/f agane he gave me bad blisters and they was so sore i started to give up then got a avent manual pump and love it. hes sleeping good at night only waking to feed at 3am then back to sleep untill 6-7am but we are up at 6am any way so hes fitting in brill.

Say did you have any problems with Vince's belly button, my little one's belly button got infected and had such a foul smell it was amazing. I had to take her to the GP when she was five days old so that she could be given an antibiotic cream and dressing for it to heal. It was so stressful but it is all nice and healed now.

We had to take Lucas to the gp at 4days coz of the same thing it really stunk but they gave him drops for hes mouth and it seems ok now.



take care lucas is calling

 

[Mimiso]

Congratulations Costgang, Princess Soph and tmr1234.

Tmr - glad you managed to sort out Lucas' belly button, it can be quite scary isnt it. Has it dropped off yet?

My princess spent the whole of yesterday sleeping, woke up about 10pm and was fast asleep again by 12am so cant really complain. Off to have a cuppa and catch a nap. Take care girlies

 

[ShadowRat]

Welcome tmr and Lucas!!

Woohoo, Laura, you're using the Lion Cubs logo!!! yay!!! Anyone else who wants to use it and is having probs, just give me a PM and I will try to find a second to help you out

Laura, that's soooo sweet about your other boys doting on baby Gage!! He's gonna be such a loved little bro hehe, already part of the gang eh?!

Soph, Vince was born at 12:20 pm A lunchtime baby, everyone says he came out ready for his lunch haha, it'd be a funnier joke if it hadn't been a caesarean!! OH says he thinks it's like Vince has always been here, it's taking a little longer for me, but it is starting to feel that way now I have started to miss him when I put him down between feeds, I love it when he's wakeful during the day and we get to interact and stuff

Has anyone reached the point where they are starting to focus on your face and stuff yet?? Can anyone hold their own heads up much yet??? Vince is just starting to do both, he is soooo strong with holding his own head up for a few seconds!!!

tmr, you're on the official front page list now honey
Everyone think of Cleckner, Emma should be here by now so hopefully soon we will be hearing an update!!! I can't WAIT!

[ShadowRat]

Ooooh, you've got the logo going too I see, Heidi! hehe Nutty would be so proud, the poor thing is a week and a day overdue now, I really feel for her Come on little lady, make an appearance soon!!!

 

[ashnbump]

heyyy ladies!

Not posted in here yet i don't think

hope you and your little ones are all doing well, and settling in ok!

Kara is doing fantastic!! She was weighed last Thirsday and she weighed in at 6lb 8oz, tomorrow is weigh day again and i'm betting she's around 7lb - 7lb 5oz!!

We go at 1.30pm so i will update you all as soon as we get back!

on another note, she's fitting in perfectly, feels like she's always been here! She wakes up roughly between 1am and 3am and then again at 4.30am - 6.30am, so its not too bad! She eats and falls straight back to sleep

she's starting to sleep a bit longer too, the odd hour extra here and there, yesterday she went FIVE HOURS!! omg lol!

i never ever in my life felt love like this before, her and David are everything to me, my whole world!

I'm loving being a mummy, and David and I are already planning number two! We definatly want them close together, so it probably wont be long befor i move back to TTC section lol!

anyway hope everyones ok, and cant wait for more mummy's to come over!
