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

Alfie naps on his front when he sleeps on me. I've never put him on it to nap otherwise. He wriggles like a little eel if I put him down for tummy time!!

We are ordering a takeaway curry tonight. I really shouldn't, trying to be good health and money wise, but haven't had one in ages!!

When kaylee naps in the day i'l put her on her tummy and I just check on her regularly. But not at night, I'm too nervous as well.
My nurse said more frequent tummy time. I made kaylee have tummy time all morning yesterday and she hated it I felt so bad.

Sharn did you get down next to her? If Alfie fusses during tummy time I lie next to him or put him on his tummy next to me on the bed. It calms him sometimes but not always!!

Emily, mostly, hates tummy time! Sometimes she tolerates it better than others.

Sharn Sophie is okay with Tummy Time but Chloe hated it. I used to pop her on things so she was on her front but raised - I'll find some pictures because it's easier to see than explain! She did lift her head up at times still but if I popped her flat she just used to scream.

Chloe is in stripes. Sophie is in the Giraff print.

Skeet: In the day sometimes I pop Sophie on her side carefully if her wind is playing up - but I am always in the room with her, I wouldn't leave her alone like that.

Rose: Rose - enjoy your yummy curry I'm struggiling with the weight too, some days I'm good then i undo it the next

Sharn.. The key to tummy time is finding the babies happiest time.. For Carson I do it as soon as he's woken from a good nap , fed and changed.. Also if you could but a mirror type thing under her she might be more inclined to lift her head to see it.

Thanks for all your opinions about napping on the tummy!! I'm not going to really allow him to be on his belly until he has really good head control

 

[sharnw]

Skeet thank you for the great tip, I will try it tonight

Omg Alfie just slept from 10-6.15!! I can't believe it!! When I woke up he was happily lying in his cot watching his mobile without so much as a cry. Bless him I feel so energised!!

 

[JenJen80]

Yay well done Alfie. Martha went down at 10.30 and woke at 2.30!!!! Then decided she didn't want her Moses basket so she ended up on me again.

 

[rose.]

Oh no Jen!! Hope you got some sleep after 2.30!

He went back down at 7.15 and only just woke up (9.40!!) I am one very happy mummy

Ruben did 10-7 this morning too, it's amazing how much better you feel after an uninterrupted nights sleep. Ruben was also not crying and just chilling, he was doing his morning stretches and making the noises to go along with them Then when I looked over at him to say good morning he was all smiley and really excited that someone else was awake

 

[rose.]

Yeah the smiles are lovely in the morning!!! I think I was smiling as much as him though ha ha

 

[anna1986]

yay for babies sleeping through
Williams a lot brighter today after his injections yesterday. he slept 8pm-4am then 4:20-6:30 so im happy with that

 

[baby_maybe]

Glad William is fleeing better after his jabs, Ruben's next ones are in two weeks time.

Does anyone here really like 'Friends'? I'm still totally mad on it even though it ended some 10 odd years ago now and constantly watch the reruns on comedy central. This morning they are showing the last few and right now is the one where Monica and Chandler get their babies. I feel so emotional watching it, don't know why, I guess I'm missing being pg at the moment or something. I know it's all corney and over done on the tv, but it still makes me wish I was doing it again!! Which, by the way, I so never am

 

[rose.]

Anna, I'm so glad William is better today

Baby maybe, I also miss being pregnant! I was so done being pregnant at the end as I was in pain with my hips and just felt uncomfortable, but its true that you forget how bad the bad bits were! I told hubby on the way to the hospital that I could never go through labour again but I've already sort of forgotten the awful bits and mostly only remember the best bits of giving birth although I don't know how I would ever cope with 2!!

 

[skeet9924]

Baby maybe-- Carson slept 10-7 too!! It was fantastic!! He also didn't wake up crying!! It was fantastic!! I love friends as well.. I own every season! I was so angry they ended it. Apparently they are talking about having 1 come back season

I miss being pregnant as well.. I was sad to out away my maternity clothes. 2 of my close friends are preg and I miss it sooo much!! Lol we aren't planning to TTC #2 for at least 2 years and it feels so far away!! I can't believe with me having such a horrible labour and crying my first month of Carson being born cause he was so crusty I'm already wanting #2

 

[baby_maybe]

It's amazing how quickly you forget the bad bits and believe me you do totally forget, I definitely did or I wouldn't have ended up with 4 kids!! lol Much as I wish I could do it again though, logic (and space and money,) will prevent me from doing so. Also I think DH would have an absolute fit if I said I wanted another, it took me long enough to convince him to go again last time!

Skeet, seriously a come back season?!? That would be sooooo awesome

 

[sportysgirl]

Great for babies sleeping through!

Poppy slept from 11 until 1.30 when she woke me screaming, no warning just a very loud scream, not sure why? Fed, winded and changed her then she fell asleep on me and woke up at 6!

 

[kraftykoala]

We had a 10-7 stretch here too, soooo nice

 

[rose.]

Must have been good sleep night or something!! Sportysgirl maybe it was a wind bubble! Hope she's ok now
