[Wiggler]

Just talked to OH, he has an infection of some sort, he is picking up some meds then coming home I have missed him so much!

 

[24/7]

Fab news wiggler!! xx

 

[Wiggler]

I'm so happy, and so relieved its not something really serious. I told OH on the phone that he owes me a lay in now, I was meant to be having a lay in this morning Trust him to get an infection and ruin it. Typical man!

OH being gone all morning has also really eased my fear of him going back to work, the kids have been fab, no tantrums from Dylan, only 1 little hissy fit! Bethany has been great too

Well update on my night - Feed at midnight, feed at 3 then feed at 5 then a feed at 8am all nearly 4 oz each time Plus side is I didnt put leo in our bed and he settled fine in his moses basket I cant find OHs bank details as I need to set up water/gas/electric accounts for monday So im looking around for a statement. Hoping we get the call for the keys tomorow because I need to go to council to complete the housing benefit claim then wer almost sorted.
Just have to keep Leo quiet so I can make phone calls now

 

[Wiggler]

OH is home, he is doped up to the eyeballs on painkillers so I've sent him to bed to get some sleep. He looks like shit

 

[Inge]

Hope OH gets better soon wiggler
Just finished writing a new CV incase I see any jobs I would want to apply for. Im thinking of going for morning cleaning jobs thats a few hours a week because OH can look after Leo while I work an hour or two a day

 

[mummy3]

Wiggler, I'm so glad they found out whats wrong with your OH and he has treatment. Sounds like Dylan coped great I would've stayed up later but bnb crashed on me

Lisa, yep one handed typing here. Hows you and little Daniel doing?

Inge, glad Leo settled for you! Good luck getting everything sorted

meow, hope everything goes well for you on tuesday

Eilidh slept from 9pm to 1 30 but then was awake until 3am then asleep again till 7 so some decent sleep here. Got someone coming to fix the dishwasher today.

 

[Inge]

[Inge]

[mummy3]

[Inge]

I know. wer not going to move in til monday when the lease starts and by then we should have everything sorted (gas,electric) wer hoping to drop some stuff off thursday so we dont have lots to do that day

 

[Wiggler]

Inge thats so exciting! I'm so happy for you!!

Well OH is doing well, still in a lot of pain. He has been given 2 types of painkillers but no antibiotics, he has been told to take it easy. Dylan started playing up as soon as OH got home which made that kind of hard, he calmed down after he had a nap though which is good.

Hiya, Ive book marked this thread now i lost you guys and couldnt find it!

Hope everyone is doing well!! How are the ickle babies doing?

Wiggler glad OH has treatment and hope he is feeling better soon!

George has had a sore tummy last night, so tried him on Infacol today see if that helps. he seems more settled today than he was last night so fingers crossed. he is a very content little baby though despite his sore tummy. Ive been a busy bee with Joshua and clubs etc and nothing has phased him he just sleeps or coo's lol he has his heal prick test tomorrow, so bracing myself for tears (mine not his! lol) Then we have an appointment to register him on Thursday morning The BFing seems to be going well, he feeds on average 3 hourly and my nipples are not as tender as they were lol The enlarged milk gland under my arm is slowly reducing in size, and is no where near as painful as it was so hopefully that means its not going to get blocked, the little ones have all gone now so the massaging helped ive also got my tummy shrinking back really well, I got back into my jeans on post delivery day 2, and put them back on today and they are far too big ... these are the jeans that were too small pre pregnancy and i was dieting to get into! yay! So trousers shopping for me, my tops are all ok thankfully or it'd cost a fortune lol Need bra's though since my milk came in my boobs just went huge lol I think thats me and george all caught up, joshua is doing well too, still a little hands on but he is giving his brother a little bit of space lol

 

[Wiggler]

Glad your little guy is more settled hun, and YAY for the jeans being too big!! Glad BF is going well still

Fail of the day: Using BnB abbreviations when talking my friend on FB

 

[Wiggler]

Just talked to my mum and looks like we can't go down there this weekend the cats are ill and its not worth risking the kids getting ill too

 

[new_to_ttc]

lol the amount of times I go to put : rofl : on IM chat or FB pmsl Sorry you cant go to your mums hun, but best to be safe with the kids! My sister and her fella are coming here this weekend!

George was a little grizzly this evening, sore tummy again but he just let out 3 almighty huge trumpy bums and is now sat awake and soooo content bless him. Well he was content until Joshua took it as his cue to pick him up and squeeze him with hugs oops!

 

[Wiggler]

Aww bless, I take it Joshua is loving being a big brother then?

Dylan is so cute with Bethany at the moment, whenever she makes any noise he goes "aww, baby" and runs over, and he always points out her different body parts, he is slightly obsessed with her hands and cheeks at the moment

 

[new_to_ttc]

Joshua loves it, not sure George feels the same lol Joshua pushes his nose or tickles his cheek everytime he walks passed, awake or asleep lol He's just gone up to bed, Ive put George in gis PJs and now he is just sat here awake and content Soon be feed time then he may have a good sleep with his tummy nice and settled Dylan sounds like he is doing amazing!!

Inge how exciting you getting your home so soon! I bet you cant wait

 

[24/7]

New, just curious.... How long does George feed for at each feed? xx

 

[new_to_ttc]

Since my milk started he feeds for about 30 minutes and goes about 3 hours between. My MW said the milk isnt fully ready yet and he should start going longer between feeds over next few days, he was going 2 hourly when the milk first started coming through so its getting more settling Hows Sam taking his feeds? i wish I knew how much George was taking, but he lost minimal weight and is content so must be enough xx
