Rose, I,hope Alfie feels better soon! That is how Emily is too, she cries when they give them, then settles and is sleepy and then wakes up,feeling lousy... Poor babies!

 

[rose.]

Thanks Amy last time it only lasted a day so hopefully he will be ok tomorrow! He has woken up a lot happier now so think the calpol is doing its job!

 

[skeet9924]

Hope Alfie and poppy are ok today!!

Hope Poppy and Alfie are feeling better today

Sophie has had a little cough for the last week, it started after her jabs, we took her to the Dr's the other day to make sure she didn't have a chest infection and he gave her a prescription. It's a ventolin inhalor though so I'm not giving it to her. She is coughing because she still has a snuffily nose, the Dr said it was because babies can't swallow properly so at the moment a build up makes her cough. So I don't get why she needs an inhalor for that, I'd rather not pump her with steroids and just keep her on the decongestents. It's only worse at night when she has been on her back for longer than usual but it's not all night, its just when she wakes up for her 4am feed, clears her throat and then is fine. I'm an asthma sufferer myself and I know the cough for that and Sophie's certainly doesn't sound like that.

 

[rose.]

Thanks everyone he's much better today

Kte sorry to hear Sophie has been poorly! I think often the drs are too quick to prescribe something without really finding out what's wrong. Hope Sophie is better soon!

[skeet9924]

Everyone else just amazed by their little ones on a daily basis??!!' So far on Sunday Carson started laughing.. It's not regular but every now and then he laughs mom stop for a few minutes then today at 3 months old he rolled from belly to back!! I was so proud!! It's such a great feeling!!

 

[MrsChezek]

Yay go Alfie! Exciting times. I too am amazed at how much they grow

Glad all babies are feeling better. What's the jab schedule in the UK? H isn't getting her second jabs until 4 months...and she had 4 different ones at 2 months and same 4 this time too.

AFM, after a month of sleep regression, Hayden just started sleeping through the night again since Tuesday night. Just like a switch was flipped she went back like nothing happened Craziness...well, we'll see how long it lasts this time

 

[anna1986]

wow well done carson

mrsC- in the uk the have jabs at 8w,12w and 16 weeks. yay for haydon sleeping through again

AFM - William had his 16 week injections on thurs and cope better than usual he also turned 4 months yesterday! crazy!

 

[sharnw]

rmsh1, wow we were both on the same ttc threads xx Your little Emma looks so sweet and cute

Skeet, well done for Carson
Kaylee shocked me last week haha, I put her on her tummy, I went to the toilet, I came out and I find her on her back wwooohhh! haha

MrsC, Thats good that Hayden slept right through. Hope you had a good all night sleep too

Anna, Glad William coped well after his needles xx.
3 more weeks and its Kaylee's turn for her 4 months jabs.

 

[rose.]

Well done Carson and Kaylee!! How exciting that they are becoming more mobile.

Mrs C glad you got a good nights sleep, and Anna I'm glad William was ok after his jabs!

Just found out my SIL is pregnant! My best friend is also pregnant! I'm so excited for them both. I'm a bit embarrassed to admit I'm actually a teenie bit jealous!! I don't want another yet but I do miss the kicks and all the anticipation of being pregnant. I can't wait to do it again even though I know it won't be for at least another year or so. One is enough to look after right now!!

Alfie's mam bottles arrived today, fingers crossed he takes them - the box says 92% of babies take mam teats I bet mine is in the 8% ha ha. I'm going to thaw out some milk and have a go later

 

[sharnw]

Rose I bought a cheep $4 bottle last night just because the teat looks similar small in size to my nipple than the avents and tomee tipee and kaylee suckled out 10ml lol. Baby steps haha,
I hope alfie drinks from the new bottles

 

[sportysgirl]

Anna, Happy 4 months William, were has that time gone?

Rose I hope Alfie gets on with the new bottles.

Poppy is generally sleeping from 10pm till 5am and then awake again at 7am. So doing well. She was so good having her injections cried when it was done but fine after that.

Hope everyone is well.

 

[skeet9924]

Woo hoo ms chez!! So happy Hayden slept through the night

Sharn- it's so exciting!! But now we have to be very careful where we leaven them and not to turn our backs for a second .. Carson is going to have to find a new favorite place to hang out.. He loves the kitchen table.


Just curious are any of you planning on using a jolly jumper.. And at what age? Carson already uses his exersaucer that bounces a bit .. But I'm still a little nervous of jolly jumper

 

[rmsh1]

rmsh1, wow we were both on the same ttc threads xx Your little Emma looks so sweet and cute

3 more weeks and its Kaylee's turn for her 4 months jabs.

Emma was born at 4.37am, so just a little earlier than Kaylee!

I have Emma's three month jabs on Thursday, not looking forward to it, I want OH to come with me

Alfie's mam bottles arrived today, fingers crossed he takes them - the box says 92% of babies take mam teats I bet mine is in the 8% ha ha. I'm going to thaw out some milk and have a go later

Good luck with the Mam bottles. After Emma took 50ml last week, have had trouble getting her to take any more Still working on it. I still think the Mam are better than the avent ones I was trying with before. Emma forms a proper latch around the Mam bottles

Sophie is a little younger but yep I am certainly amazed, she is starting to chat much more with us, gets louder and more excited. She pushed herself up her changing mat yesterday, the concentration on her face then a huge smile at the end, it was fab. Today she has been grabbing some link toys on her bouncer chair and it kept her entertained for ages. I can't believe she is doing these things already!

Not 100% what a jolly jumper is but with Chloe we used to have a jumperoo type one, when she was a little older 4/5 she absolutely loved it, so I'll look into getting her something then. We don't have door bouncer hanging things as they don't fit on our doors.

 

[sharnw]

Skeet omg yes, definitly being careful now and no turning my back.. Kaylee's leg was hanging over the side of her changing table. ohhh noooo

 

[MrsChezek]

Hayden isn't into turning over when left on her back. Mostly she just chills and looks around. She doesn't get much time on her back during the day as to counteract all the sleeping on her back and avoiding flat head so maybe she enjoys it as its different. However, we sit her up in various chairs and bouncers and she's started trying to launch herself out if them!! She'll either fling her head forward or arch her back so she slides out - I swear she's already trying to crawl as she's so desperate to go somewhere all the time Def can't leave her sitting and unbuckled like we used too

So she was in bed from 8:40pm to 7:50am! I specifically didn't say slept because she was awake 6am-6:20 and again 6:50-7:15 but she just lied in the crib and chewed on her hands. Didn't cry or call out to us at all! of course I never fell asleep after hearing her at 6am but at least DH got to sleep in on Fathers Day!!
