We stole it up here in Canada, yady. It was 88 with a humidex of 108 today. Currently, at 10:20pm, it's 75 with a humidex of 91. We don't have air conditioning or central air. It just looks so wrong to see your thermostat read 84F as the temperature inside the house when the heat is not on.

Thanks Brandi, Happy 4 weeks to Anberlin, its gone so fast hasn't it!

Bethany slept amazingly well, I didn't even need to put her in her rocker!! I got about 5.5 - 6 hours sleep which is great, but I now feel more tired than I did yesterday

Is it morning.. urgh

Ive woke up feeling very sicky, probably because I went to bed without having had dinner last night, then spent the entire night feeding. Blood sugar is probably through the floor, so just had breakfast and hopefully that'll make me feel a little better, although will still be sleep deprived! lol George is narky because he didnt sleep much, wanted constant feeding last night but he would feed for a few minutes, close his eyes, moan and whinge then do it all again. He is falling asleep next to me here now, hope he has at least an hour so he feels better and might be less narky lol Joshua is also narky but his attitude is louder and he answers back grrrr No idea what is up with him, obviously woke up on the wrong side of the bed lol Its going to be a long day lol maybe both boys will have a huge sleep soon and then I can have a huge sleep too..... oh wishful thinking

How did the other little Mayhems sleep last night? Is bethany feeling any better?

Heyy sorry you were feeling so poorly, hope you are feeling better by now! Hope the hot tub helped your pelvis hun Glad the girls slept, though me thinks it might not have been thanks to hubbys help, men huh!

Arghh george keeps closing his eyes then as he drifts off he wakes himself up lol he appears ok, but wonder if he has a bit of wind or something, or he just being a pain lol

 

[Wiggler]

Aww new I hope your boys both have a nap for you later, but if not I hope they are on their best behaviour so you can rest.

Bethany is much better this morning, still a snot monster but looking much better for having a good sleep last night.

 

[new_to_ttc]

Joshua wont sleep, he'll either perk up or be a nightmare we'll see lol George has fallen asleep and he is making the cutest little squeaks lol

Glad bethany slept hun, and hope she stops being a snot monster soon hun xxx

 

[new_to_ttc]

George is waking up as narky as he went to sleep, but the bigger narky one has cheered up a bit and is playing outside in the sun lol - it'll last until he wants something and doesnt get his way lol - or until I give him a row for banging on my mums front door grrrrrr like I needed his brother startled!

 

[Wiggler]

Me, Dylan and Bethany are having a lazy day today, I'm just so tired, and Dylan is all snotty too. We are watching films, Dylan really likes Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, he made me put it on again as soon as it finished

 

[new_to_ttc]

Im off out to my sisters with my narky boys lol if nothing else the car journey will soothe George for 10 minutes lol Enjoy the films hun xxx

 

[Wiggler]

Have a lovely day hun.

Hmm, sausages, chips, eggs and beans for lunch I think. I forgot to defrost something healthier

 

[heyyady]

MMMMM, eggs and beans- although my version is a bit different- I do mexican refried beans with fried eggs and tortillas
It's 5:30 am andjust got the girls fed and back to bed- I'm up eating cereal, my stomach woke me up before my little ladies did! Hopefully I can get back to slep and catch a couple more hours

 

[mummy3]

Aww heyy I'm sorry about the ulcer pain That was your MIL? She looks vv young!

Stupid hot here again, 100 and something so stuck in the house. Might do some baking later and need go sort the rent. Hubby got a raise on his paycheck for some reason so going to go look for toys for the playroom Eilidh slept 9pm to 4 30am, after a feed hubby took her to the shower so I went back to sleep for an hour and now he's gone of to get me a starbucks before work

New, hope you got your blood sugar up Gad Joshua is in a good mood, did George perk up?

Brandi, hows it going with fil?

Wiggler, can I come for dinner? Lazy day sounds awesome, reckon we're having one too. Yay for Bethany sleeping

 

[24/7]

Sam has come up with a few little red spots on his face.... Has anyone elses LO's had this and do I need to do anything for it? xx

 

[Wiggler]

Do they look like little whiteheads? Cos Bethany has some of them, Dylan had them too.

Bethany is so close to smiling now, she tried to smile and me, Dylan and the TV earlier.

 

[24/7]

No white head, just red and angry looking....

He has horrendous farts today, just like eggs?! xx

 

[Wiggler]

Aww bless, its probably nothing but if you're worried mention it to your HV.

GRR, I just had a lovely phone call asking if I still own my Dyson and would I like someone to come to my home to repair it, they had my bloody name AND address!!!! I kindly told her to remove my details from their computer. I hate getting calls like that at this time in the evening, this is when we are trying to wind Dylan down for bed and he goes all nutty when the phone rings in case its my mum

I got maybe 2 hours of sleep last night, our little monkey was up all night with major poo pains. I felt so bad because no matter what we would do nothing would work. Even though I'm tired as can be I'm so happy because I'm down 13lbs and my engorgement seems to be going away. So weird to have soft breasts after having hard lumpy boobs for so long.

24/7 Liam had some red skin irritations on his face and we were able to clear it up with aveeno sensitive baby body wash followed by aveeno sensitive baby moisturizer. Our pediatrician said it was normal irritation and to just clean the spot then moisturize.

 

[Wiggler]

I hope you can catch up with some sleep today hun

Gotta get the HV over when she rings next, we have been doing the massages that the hospital told us to on Bethanys feet but one of them still really points inwards

 

[luckyme225]

Hope you can get an appointment soon. As for potty training pull ups seem to make it take longer. We went cold turkey and would ask every now and then if he needed to pee but for the most part left it up to him. After peeing in his underwear twice he got the hang of it. I think he only ever had three accidents during training. We even went on vacation after only five days of starting potty training and he did great. When we were in the car we would put waterproof cover over his underwear.

 

[Wiggler]

OK, I was certain 100% that talipes was NOT club foot, just a muscle problem cos they said massage would help OH was certain it was club foot, and I just googled and it IS club foot My poor baby, its really mild though thankfully

 

[mummy3]

wiggler yay for her nearly smiling!

Lucky, hope you get more sleep, glad you're feeling better in yourself though.

24, red spots can be normal.

I've been leaking all day
