Mayhem Babies! May 2011 mummies and babies

[Wiggler]

Bethany hates her mat too, on her back and her tummy Going to get her a cheap swing in a few weeks when money is better. We are just about to run out of all the food we made before Bethany was born so need to do a HUGE food shop and all the nappies we got for the kids are about to run out too

 

[mummy3]

That food lasted ages wiggler! Is Dylan potty trained? I'm sure Bethany will grow to love her mat/chair, little girls can be very picky though

I just made the kids a cheese and broccoli pasta bake with carrot on the side and 1 just ate the pasta and 1 jut ate the carrots, so swap plates after

I hope so Mummy, the MW's so far haven't had children and seem very text book, but because of the delay, I'm not text book so they haven't been much help!!

Sam loves tummy time and has excellent head control and he is uplooking at everything, chair is hit and miss, but play gym is a nono. xx

awww gorgeous photos

ok so i decided cluster feeding doesnt really fit in with a single parent and high social life child lol george has been on the breasts nearly all day i dont think i have any milk left in me rofl he was fed just before karate, at karate and is on again!! that doesnt count the less than hourly feeds all afternoon lol

 

[mummy3]

Lol sounds like little George is growing again!

 

[new_to_ttc]

Not in length I hope lol He only has 2-3 days to regain his birth weight so hopefully he is working hard at that lol 30 minutes on breast 1, now we switched sides he'll be ready for breast 1 again by time he done lol

 

[Wiggler]

we still have 2 stews left and 6-7 pastas, but I'll save them for when i dont feel like cooking.

Dylan is being potty trained in a few months, he is very nearly ready!!

its so hard to type 1 handed lol

So true wiggler, I only get to browse when expressing or Sam is awake. xx

 

[mummy3]

Thats what Eilidh does all evening, musical boobs I bet you'll see a big difference in his weight when he gets checked.

 

[mummy3]

Soon as he's trained that'll free up alot of your nappy money. I found my son easier to train than the girls, he loves his willy lol so using the toilet was a great game We went straight to the toilet as he hated the actual potty!

Yep, one handed here too, much easier when shes on the left side as well.

 

[new_to_ttc]

If I stop the music do I get a break lol he is farting like a trooper really blasting out the wind so hopefully after this feed we'll be a bit happier

Im usually struggling with capital letters one handed but its easier on this side lol Im managing to feed, type, browse FB and do my Sky+ lol oh and munching grapes I got this sorted now lolol

 

[mummy3]

you got that multitasking down Lol if you stop the music I dont think you'll get much peace!

 

[new_to_ttc]

id like my drink too but havent yet mastered turning my body without having my nipple ripped off

 

[Wiggler]

I can't wait til he is out of nappies, he is now dry overnight and lets us know when he has done a poo, but all attempts to get him to tell us when he needs to do a wee or a poo have failed, fingers crossed he will pick up using the loo straight away. We are going straight onto the toilet, just seems so much easier

I was so worried today that Dylan would get stroppy that I can't do much when I am BF, but he is quite interested in watching her feed. He was watching earlier and Bethany pulled off and my boob was spraying like a power hose and the look of horror on his face was hilarious

Dylan is going to my mums on Saturday for a little holiday. I'm really shattered so will be great to catch up on sleep and not be woking up at about 4.30am by a wide awake toddler. My mum said I am doing loads better this time than after Dylan (everyone thinks I had PND) I couldn't wait for her to babysit him, I can;t imagine Bethany being away from me, but I am going to let my mum have her occasionally, Dylan is great when he has to be away from us now and I want Bethany to feel confident when we aren't around too, she isn't going to be going to my mums until she is a bit older though, I'm not ready to let her go!

 

[mummy3]

Dylans doing so well to go dry overnight, thats the hardest part! I wouldnt want to be away from my LO either while they are so young

New, my nips are so used to bfing now that Eilidh can pull herself off and I dont even feel it

 

[new_to_ttc]

awwww wiggler sounds like he is really getting ready! Try pee balls from Tesco, boys love them in the toilet and make training easier lol joshua still isnt dry at night!

oooooo pulling the nipple is a bit ouchy here

Joshua is 8 and I can count on one hand the nights he spent away from me lol george wont be going anywhere either lol

 

[Wiggler]

Dylan is waking up before 5am again and sending him to my mums is the only way I know to get him back to 6am wake ups. I normally put him back to bed until 6am, but i asked OH to do it today and he let Dylan get up at 5.10am!! grrrr

 

[new_to_ttc]

Urghhh 5am is horrible! lol What time does bethany get up?

Ssshhhhhhh.... George is fed, pooped, trumped and asleep!!!! he actually looks very asleep lol He might sleep until 10-11ish now for his next normal feed with any luck lol

 

[new_to_ttc]

george is awake and grizzly again!!! Well i did manage to grab myself a bite to eat and a drink in those 10 minutes so shouldnt complain lol

 

[Wiggler]

Bethany won't wake up apart from for booby until about 10am. With bethany demanding booby pretty much constantly most nights until midnight, and waking every 2ish hours for food after that, then DYlan getting up between 4-5am I'm only getting about 3 hours sleep a night. I am exausted. I was planning to nap when Dylan did earlier, but little missy was wide awake so I couldnt.
