Hope he comes round to your way of thinking. This is def one you need to stand your ground on as it could shape how he is with them when they're older. :hugs:
 
Wt - he'll get used to the boundaries I guess soon enough. I knew what you meant by the description so don't worry.

In more cheerful news, I showed Z how to crawl properly this afternoon and then e followed me from the lounge, across the hall and into the dining room, about 4m, giggling everytime
I stopped and turned to look back at him! Wish we'd videoed it, it was hilarious!
 
WT - sorry just read this but believe me I would have had the EXACT same reaction! In fact mine might have been worse! That is totally inappropriate behaviour towards a 6 month old or any child when it ceases to be funny :nope: It might be funny with a toddler for a minute or two but not with a baby. I'm not sure what to suggest really but knowing you from on here I am sure you will do/say the right things.


Lozza - can just imagine you crawling about on your hands and knees!! :haha:

City - Noisy neighbours....take G outside their house next time she has a meltdown at 3.00am :winkwink:
 
WT your description didn't make it sound any worse than it was don't worry...xx
Lozza that is EXCITING!!!!!!!! And yes, you are going to have to do that on Thursday (and who knows...N may leap up and join Z!!!!!!!) xxx
 
WT - think I'd be hacked off too! If P or K are laughing along with DH - then fine - but as soon as the bottom lip comes out - he must stop! Poor P - sure he forgot about it within a few minutes - but awful for you to hear.

GO Z!!! What a clever boy!! (sure your mum wont be saying this shortly - haha)

Vitfa - I happily give porridge type stuff for breakfast - but everything else is play food at the moment - and therefore I try and make sure food stuff isn't given at the same time as milk
 
Lozza, omg! Wow! How exciting and sweet!

WT, you didn't make it sound abusive, but YES, insensitive. My own dad is a "teaser" and he does it to this day and when I tell him how much I hate it, he just says I'm being oversensitive. It has been a wedge in our relationship my entire life and I never am truly comfortable around him because he always has something nasty to say. (Every time I see him, the first words out of his mouth are criticism.)

I think you're perfectly right to make him back off the twins. Honestly, who needs to be that kind of tough anyway? That just sounds like it will lead to defensiveness.

Poor little baby! Remind your DH that someday when he's old and can't defend himself, he'll have two "tough" men looking after him. Would he treat an old person that way?

Men! DH was away all weekend on his company cruise and I was home with the baby and working (to be fair I had my sister to help... sometimes)... so he makes dinner while I'm feeding the baby and putting her to sleep and then was like, "You can bring me my food so I can catch up on this TV show." And I was like, UM. And he was like, "I cooked for you!" Bitch I just fed your child and put her to sleep, like I have done 99% of the nights of her life.

Again... men!
 
Yay :happydance: Just been to be weighed and he's put on a whole pound in 2 weeks so we're back up to just below the 50th percentile from dipping to the 25th the last month or so. :happydance: we thought he felt heavier! He's 16lb 12oz now. Now if only I could be bothered to try and lose the same amount!!

Click to expand...

Best suggestion yet!!!

But I can't believe you'd be annoyed that Mr. Mouse would ask you to bring him his food so he could watch TV. I mean, surely he missed out on a lot of shows while he was on his CRUISE! :rofl: Maybe I should get my DH to come throw a ball at his face for awhile. :wacko:

Men!

Lozza- I guess all that eating is going somewhere. :) Glad to see he's putting on some pounds. Now he needs to put it to good use by sleeping longer! :thumbup: :)
 
WT, that is unbelievable. Who would do that! You are well within your rights to be angry, and he needs to realise that under no circumstances would that be ok.

Have you talked about it yet? I hope so.

:hugs: missus. Your boys are too precious for words. xxxx

Lozza, that's fab weight gain for Z! Awesome! I think D has chunked up too. I can't wait to see what she has gained...she's getting weighed in 2 weeks.

Well, my Duracell bunny baby is..........sleeping! A lot. In fact a completely freakish amount. She had 25 mins this morning, followed an hour later by 1hr 15 mins, followed an hour and a half later by 1hr 30.....and she's still asleep. I'm confused. She has never ever slept so much during the day. During awake times she was really upset (wind I thought), but maybe she is a touch out of sorts.

She is a feed down today, so the next feed I think I'll give her extra to compensate.

So odd
 
Ok well WHAT an exciting day!!!!! NW lads I'm so pleased for you... Lozza that weight gain is frickin amazing. So so pleased all your hard work has paid off. Yay!!!! Can't wait to check out his moves on thurs xxx
And loo!!!!!!! Omg!!!! Sleep???! She must have known we were coming. Again, very very VERY pleased for you. More time for back room antics (snarf snarf) :rofl:

And mr mouse...be afraid...be very afraid or you'll find a big load of march mamas on your case!!!!
 
What the heck WT! I'd be furious!

Whats with men? Seriously?!

The other day OH was settling Keira while I ate my dinner (finally). After literally 2 minutes of trying and her still crying he just walks out of the bedroom and sits down on the couch. What is that? So I had to go in and fix her because he was happy to just leave her crying! Then he wonders why I'm hesitant to let him take her on his own to visit his mom. Between behaviour like that ^ and her suggestions of giving Keira cornmeal porridge and mint tea.... Yikes.

Loo - Sleep is awesome, don't question it! lol
 
Loo, perhaps D is beginning to mellow out into a snoozy, happy baby! Hurray for lots of sleep!

WT, yes, poor man had to spend the whole weekend on a cruise drinking tropical drinks and then eating at the best taco stand in the world (according to Newsweek). So he'll just have to forgive me if I don't cry into my bowl of gluten-free, soy-free, dairy-free food for his sufferings.
 
Sounds tasty mouse :nope: you're doing soooo well with your lack of nice food when we just food porn constantly. Sorry!!! X
 
That doesn't bother me at all! It's like some part of me has just given up on food until further notice. Not counting jellybeans and potato chips, of course. :haha:
 
Mmmmm jellybeans.

Random aside, I really hate these banner ads that pop up to fill up the screen if you get anywhere near them with your curser for even a split second. I had to close out the Clinique ad 5 times in a row before getting to scroll down to write this complaint. :)
 
WT, it sounds like a few home truths were what was needed. I'm glad he is being sweet with the boys again, and you're right, deep down he knew what he was doing wasn't right.

Mouse, you deserve a prize for being the healthiest mama. Have a glutton, dairy, and soy free cake :cake:

Well, I tried to feed D this morning, and I'm not going to lie, even I didn't think my boobs felt full, so it was no wonder when she started fussing and breaking off every few seconds. I've just told Al to go and make her a bottle up. I'm upset because ideally I wanted to keep the morning and night feeds going, but it's not about me is it? If I'm not making the milk, then I have to do the right thing. Hopefully my supply will be enough to giver her a bedtime feed for a couple of days.

I'll miss breast feeding so much. I never thought I'd feel this way about it.
 
Big :hugs: Loo... when any of us BFers are going to stop BFing its going to be damn hard. You've done fabulously well. I'm very very very proud of you - I know its not been the easy ride its meant to be. Please don't beat yourself up about it... xxxxx
 
Aww, Loo. Being sad over the last few feeds seems to be a bitter-sweet event for all of us at some point. :hugs: You've done amazingly well and beat all the odds. D is doing great and will continue to great as a FF baby too. :thumbup:
