thanks wud! Sorry you missed out on the park, but glad the older ones had a lovely time! Have they broke up from school? Hope Livi is catching up with her weight.

mummy, dont you need lots of calories? lol OH cooked me a meal last week which Id never had before and I was checking the calories of everything going in it, I thought I'd never be able to eat again the amount it had lol OH was just laughing at me lol

Wiggler glad you had a good evening, yay for the laptop

So much for a long night. George was asleep on me by 8.15pm last night, and he has just woken up 15 minutes or so ago!! He slept 8 hours straight! I was asleep by 10pm too, I woke at 1.30am and 4am to check on munchkin but got straight back to sleep, so we both feeling very refreshed this morning

 

[Wiggler]

Bloody hell mummy, what is that trail mix mad with? Lard?

Got some good bargains, some Innocent smoothies down from £1.89 to 40p each, pittas, curry sauces, cheese. Managed to fill the little space left in one freezer nicely

new - glad you had a great nights sleep

Dylan slept until about 7.10am He didn't go to bed until 8.50pm though We was out later than I thought Bethany slept well very well too, so well that I woke up with large boulders on my chest instead of boobs

YAY, for the first time in a week I got smiles, great big grins

Josh hardly slept yesterday so was a ratbag last night

I'm tired and just realised i haven't sorted out a fathers day present! No idea what to get DH from Josh?!

Any ideas?

 

[Wiggler]

How about a pic of them both in a lovely photo frame? or a digi photo frame with loads of pics of them both in

lol I know the feeling of waking up with boulders he only had a small feed when he woke at 5.30, then went straight back to sleep, but he woke at 7.30 and fed for 35-40 minutes so Im feeling a little less firm lol he is wide awake now yay! Joshua woke up in an awesome mood too, plus I had some sleep and feel human, this household is a happy household this morning!

nice one for Dylan sleeping in! maybe a 9pm bedtime is what he needs! lol

Hope the other Mayhem babies slept well for their mummies last night xxx

George has made OH a mug with a photo and his handprint on, and they did next day delivery so i made sure I had it on time lol I LOVE photos so a frame would be lovely Last year for fathers day I got my dad a frame that said 'A girls first love is her daddy' and it had a few small gaps for photos and I dug out photos from when i was born to the present day and any with just me and my dad in I included, was lovely and it brought a tear to my dads eye!

This year Ive got my dad some gadget stuff for his new iphone, but they still havent arrived, if they dont come this morning Im stuff because Im going there tonight and wont get any mail until i get back, yikes! Wish that had next day delivery lol

 

[Wiggler]

lol, no way is he having a 9pm bedtime, I like my quiet time in the evenings

Hello Ladies- I finally had a minute to pop in, although it's now almost 1 am and I can't keep my eyes open! I read back a few pages but can't remember any of it atm- the girls are so cute nd so fun and SUCH a handful! Hubby was off today so I had help, but we're both exhausted! I'm looking forward to a poker night tomorrow night with friends, dropping the lovelies off with MIL for the evening

Oh! 24/7- try getting a pack of diapers 2 sizes too big and put them on OVER the ones that fit, like an extra barrier- we did this years ago when my son had a bacterial infection and was pooing every hour all over everything in the house- it worked great! Still some leakage problems, but cut down the laundry by 3/4!

 

[heyyady]

New- I once went out to mail all my christmas packages to family out of town when I had the flu- I got the forms mixed up and put the sender's address in the recipient's address slot and via versa- a week later ALL my packages arrived on my door step!

 

[new_to_ttc]

sorry hun but that is definitely something I would do i meant to put my parents address on the order form so at least if they didnt arrive in time, they'd still get to him, but I forgot

Glad you and DH had a lovely day with your girls! Im sure poker night will be a welcomed break. Hows the BF going hun? has your supply picked up?

cant believe 2 hours has passed since George fed felt like 2 minutes lol so going to get some breakfast quick now and hope he hangs on for me, he is a little grizzly at me but easily pacified atm lol

im really sorry Josh and Sam didnt settle well last night Is Sam still having a bad tummy? Hope you get to see a decent doctor today hun

 

[wild2011]

mummy u asked me something a way back and i cant remember what after catching up

on the poop subject Luca's resembles korma

24- i'll not be switching to cloth nappies until Luca is weaning, they poop way too iften at the mo and until it hardens up it is alot of work. they say not to wean till 6 months again now i noticed the other day but ill be introducing rusks and baby rice as and when i see fit, my others had both of them between 3-4 months old, so Luca will prob be the same, then the cloth nappies come out make sure u wash them lots before you start using them 24, the more they've been washed the better they absorb. just dont get fabric conditioner anywhere near them lol. xx

 

[Wiggler]

Is it bedtime yet? I'm shattered!

 

[24/7]

Zzz, tired today!! Didn't go to baby sensory play today because of Sam's eye. xx

 

[Wiggler]

Hows his eye looking today? Poor little guy

 

[BizyBee]

Poor Sam.

Luke slept well last night! I fed him around 12:15 and he woke up after 5! That was his longest stretch so far. Granted, he did not sleep very much yesterday evening. OH and I went out for a little while so my MIL watched him and he was awake and fussy with her the whole time. He kept wanting more milk. He was especially hungry yesterday. Poor baby was so tired when we got home. No wonder he slept all night. OH and I had a nice time with our friends though. It was good to get out and have some time for just us.

This morning my left breast is so sore. It feels lumpy and I think I have a clogged milk duct. I've massaged it, taken a hot shower, pumped, had baby nurse, etc. Now I'm getting ready to put a heat pack on it. Hope that helps. Ouch!

 

[24/7]

Still yuck, but I think abit better, I just feel so rough from no sleep and OH is doing a seven day week at work so no help in nights xx

 

[mummy3]

24, is it an infection or an infection and a blocked tear duct? When Eilidh had her 2 eye infections she got antibiotic drops to put in every few hours and they cleared it up within a couple of days.

Wild, I have no idea what I was asking you now

New, yeah I need to keep calories way up and my usual method of doing this is chocolate however, it would appear that eating healthy is the way to gain That was a lovely idea for your dads gift.

Meow, sorry you had an unsettled night.

Bizy, ouch! Hope you get the duct unclogged.

Heyy I'd probably do that too.

EIlidh slept 9pm to 5am, getting used to this whole sleeping through thing, hope she doesnt go back to waking every couple hours.

I will agree with the is it bedtime comments! William fed evey hour and a half all day and night yesterday! 5oz a feed too! Too much for a 2 week old baby so he was getting really colicy and had a tummy ache from sheer volumes he was eating. So naturally I'm shattered!
Been a mad few days, William also failed his hearing test with the HV so we have been fretting over if he can hear or not! So the past few days we have been trying to make him jump to sound lol poor little baby! But he seems to respond to sound so I hope his ears have cleared now!

How is everyone else? Not able to get on here hardly ever anymore! Noah and William are a right handful, now that OH is back at work my poor mum has been drafted in to help me cos with with Williams feeding up the creek all I seem to do is feed feed feed and poor noah would never get any attention or food or anything if I was all on my own coss by the time I've fed, burped, changed and finally got him settled, he's awake again looking for food!

 

[mummy3]

Aww Charlotte
