March 2013 babies - we all have our beautiful babies :)

Thanks ladies.

Ive just was last monday episode of Dont just stand there 'as i give birth' i think its called. Omg my emotion are off :(.. Having a wee cry to myself watching these babies been born lol.. It's more focused on the dads the program which i like lol..

Ill try the oil in the bath lol. We've finished our first box of baby formula so the next ones my mum got us was the apitmal comfort lol i noticed the colour is closer to breastmilk. and i can normal stand the taste of the normal baby power but this one tastes minging :| lol.
 
we use aveeno too, skeet. It works pretty well as long as it's consistently applied!

Mrschez P is the same way. He eats for maybe 5 minutes then suckles for 5 minutes, so I take him off and attempt a burp just to wake him up some and put him back on and same deal goes on for the next ten minutes!
 
Hi ladies I've been lurking here for a while now but never really posted.

I can recommend using just olive oil on dry skin it works wonders I used to use it in baby massage :).
 
Hope everyone is well today :)

We've had a very stressful weekend, Alfie suddenly got very sick on Saturday night and kept choking and making horrible noises, then fallin asleep and being pretty much unwakeable. We ended up taking him to hospital and stayed until last night. He is now much better and is feeding well again but yesterday he was hardly feeding. They think he had the winter tummy bug. Seeing your little one poorly and distressed is just about the worst and hardest thing in the world :( I'm so glad he is now back on his food again and much more awake. Last night was so scary bringing him home and thinking oh my god what if he chokes in his sleep and I don't realise!! Thankfully he was fine. Poor little man :(
 
Oh god id panic to hun. glad he's ok now xxxx
 
Thanks everyone! It was terrifying but he seems back to normal now except for his explosive wet nappies - seems like the bug is thankfully disappearing as quickly as it arrived!
 
Poor Alfie and poor mum!!! Glad he is all better now :hugs:

I think Hayden might have a bit of a cold too cause she has been comfort feeding all yesterday and slept most of the day and night. Also, her voice is different - more hoarse when she cries. Her nose is always stuffy so I didn't realize at first but she's not hot to the touch so I don't think she has a fever...need to dig up the thermometer as its still in one of the packed boxes from the move!!!!
 
so sorry rose,...we just got home ourselves Domenic was admitted to the childrens hospital on thursday, they thought he had reflux, but started to rapidly loose weight, so he had an ulrltrasound thursday night and emergency surgery on friday morning, he had a condition called Pyloric Stenosis, his food was going in to his tummy, but would projectile back out, his pyloric muscle was enlarged so it would stop his food from passing from the stomach to the small intestines, we got home yesterday and hes eating well with very little spit up, it is so hard to see our children sick, i hope your wee fella gets well soon
 
Rose. Must have been awful :hugs: I know what you mean about worrying, Sophie has had a few projectile sick moments in her basket whilst we have been awake and I get so paranoid she will do it after I have put her back down after a night feed. Glad Alfie is feeling better now :flower:

Boxey: Glad Domenic on the mend now too :flower: That must of been quite scary :hugs:
 
Thanks girls! Boxxey, how awful that must have been so worrying! Glad Domenic is doing well now, that's one of the things they thought it might be when we first took Alfie in.
 
Big hugs boxxey! :hugs: That must have been awful! I'm glad Domenic is ok now.

Hope all is well, glad your back home. :hugs:
 
hes like a totally different baby, hes doing so well
 
Great news :) must be a huge relief!

Well, Alfie's appetite has certainly returned and I think he's catching up on yesterday's meals too! He's been constantly on the boob today!
 
Rose - so glad Alfie is on the mend, I know what it's like to get admitted too :hugs:

Boxxey - Ruben got checked for stenosis when he started being sick too, his is just reflux though. Glad that they diagnosed it so quickly and that is on the mend now :hugs:

AFM - the last few nights have been bad again, not sure if it's the milk or wind or what. I know I need to get him off this comfort milk though, most times he barely goes 4 hours between feeds and he is nowhere near wanting to drop one overnight yet. Last time we tried to switch back to regular milk he was in pain a fair bit so we went straight back to the comfort milk. This time we're trying the hipp organic stuff as I've heard it easier on the tummy and although the doctor didn't want him on colic stuff I've put him on the dentinox one which can go in the milk, it certainly seems to be helping him bring it up better. If the hipp milk seems to be causing problems I'm going to try the colief stuff which breaks down lactose and see if that helps. I really want him back on normal milk because he's so hungry all the time, but I can't up the amount yet because I don't think his little tummy would take an extra ounce just at the moment. He isnt draining many bottles so it's not really an option. Hope all you other ladies and babies are well :)
