Mayhem Babies! May 2011 mummies and babies

[mummy3]

Definately not staying local to where we are now, would be moving north of the city in direction of hubbys work. Still 50/50 on whether choosing LA, soon as hubby finished the prototype he's freelancing then terms are being discussed lol, the guys already asked DH to work for him but he needs to make it worth our while and it seems like its a whole lot more affordable here. It would be at least an hour away by car for the stalker to reach general area and she has no car SHopping is horrendous with the kids, but I need hubby to drive me there and he does an awful job of the weekly shop so family outing it is.

Is George more fond of his basket nowadays? Eilidh settles very well in hers thankfully.

He seems to settle in it for a couple of hours, but its only since we starting using it as a play mat lol We've put his changing mat in there on top of the mattress, then a massive big thick soft towel on top of that, which he goes on naked and plays/kicks about. But then I put a blanket on top of that and he'll lie and sleep for a little while lol because of the changing mat its very snug, its not so indifferent from his hammock now maybe thats why he settles in it?

whats up hun xxx

 

[mummy3]

wiggler, you ok?

Sounds very cozy new.

 

[new_to_ttc]

Just very padded and snug lol he didnt last long in it, he stirred then kicked off lol So he fed, again, and fell asleep on my arm and his now on my pillow lying very next to me lol

Ive got a stupidly munchies head on arghhhh Im munching my way through all the snacks i can find, which isnt much because Im crap at getting junk food in this house lol Im worse when George has a lot of feeds all together, do you think its related? george has fed so much this evening, and for a lot longer than normal. he usually does 15-20 minutes, but tonight he's done 45minutes+ with less than an hour between them since about 4pm lol

 

[mummy3]

I have the munchies too atm new, its down to the increased feeding increasing the amount of milk produced meaning alot more calories burned Enjoy!

 

[new_to_ttc]

I found some mini eggs left from Easter (an unopened bag lol) feeling very blurgh now rofl

This is George just now in his padded out moses basket lol Ive put him back in it for a bit as he isnt secure on the pillow and I was in and out of the room lol I took the photo on my phone so for reasons unknown its a pinky tinge, but he is in blue blankets honest lol

And my smallest little man is being rugrat just now lol 4am and Im waiting for him to sleep. he isnt being grizzly or anything, just awake! lol Im sure the moaning will soon follow, he has fed, but when he is awake he wants more feeding after to settle to sleep so no point me going to sleep I'll soon be called upon Im sure, yawn!

[wild2011]

morning ladies how are we all?

meow what bottles and teats do u use, most bottles come as standard with size 1, but u can buy newborn ones, ( i dont bother) size 1 has suited him fine so my newborn pack are still sealed lol

Luca, is a pain in bum wen im ready for bed and takes ages to settle, but once hes off hes sleeping thr till about 5-6 has an ounce or so goes back off, and i have to wake him at 8-9 he then guzzles all his feeds thru the day and sleeps a fair bit till lunch time, very awake in arvo/evening tho.he's just not interested in feeds during the night lol

chloe and leila stayed at nans last nite, so sienna jumped in bed with mummy and daddy we had a lovely evening and i made a delicious penne spezatino omg druellll im eating very little at the mo so its gotta be tastey or id rather not bother lol

just about to induldge in some online clothes shopping, all my clothes fall down , my jeans have been too big since the morning after i had him, i remeber the trauma and tears i had after having sienna cos i couldnt even get my pre preg jeans past my knees for weeks haha really using this as a stepping stone to keep off the weight.

Mummy- Hes handling the breastfeeding very well. He has been since birth, he immediately latched on the first time and been no problems since. Right now he's going thru a growth spurt so he's basically draining my boobs.. he will sleep for 3-4 hrs and feed normally all day then around 6pm and 12 am is when he wants to feed every 15 min for an hour or so.. great timing for the midnight one haha. As for me, I'm pretty happy because I've lost 27 lbs so far and just in 2 weeks so thats a good feeling. Plus with absolutely no change in diet, my diet has probably gotten worse as i'm eating burger king a lot cause i seem to crave that and blueberry muffins at the moment.

Thats great you found some houses! I know AZ is a lot cheaper than San Diego and LA.

we just tried to do a handprint for OH, omg the smallest amount of paint has created a huge disaster lol

24 and wild, nice one on your LOs sleeping so well last night I think George slept better than me I didnt sleep well at all

george is 1 month today, its gone way too fast

 

[24/7]

There will be tears here tomorrow new, it feels like such a huge milestone!! Happy one month George!! xx

 

[new_to_ttc]

Ive had tears today, not sure why they just keep starting, its probably partly why.

 

[24/7]

I have still only had the odd day without tears, the emotion of it all just too much, looking back at pregnancy and birth and now the last month is so bittersweet, absolute joy at it all, with the sadness that it has all passed, and the same with looking ahead.

new, I'll be needing lots tomorrow!! xx
