Mayhem Babies! May 2011 mummies and babies

Well popped into the clinic after work and a BF support worker was there, who was very nice and I have an actual appointment tomorrow.... She thought I would struggle just expressing now but hopes she can get Sam to feed properly which should help my supply. FX. xx
 
You're amazing!! Everything crossed for you hun xx

I woke George for the school run, as I was about to leave they rang and told me Joshua had a meeting and didnt need picking up till later. So then I was left with a pissy baby. I've just got him happy and the monkey has fallen asleep - I need to go get Joshuas in 10 minutes :dohh: kids!!!
 
wow, got his coat on him, in the car seat, out the car seat and back in the house without waking him!! result! Me thinks he was tired lol - leaving his coat on though a stupid move like that might wake him lol
 
Wild, yeah I collect clothes through the year, generally if I see something in the sale or on offer but would get something regular price if really like it lol. Eilidh has all of Anjas old clothes which is great and Anja will get all of Frejas when she's in a size 5 (couldnt take Frejas entire wardrobe when we emigrated lol) Ruaridh gets his own being the only boy and DH likes to choose a lot of his clothes. We also set a clothing budget and right after xmas I spend a fortune buying the next years clothes, feel right broke after that:dohh:

Well done new, thats some good maneuvering!

24:happydance: Hope it goes well

Milos, wow you've been busy! When will you find out more about Milo, are you aiming to get him in a special needs programme in the school district? We have a meeting on the 27th of this month with the school district about Ruaridh starting in the preschool programme, so left a message with the developmental ped saying that we got the preliminary report about our appointment but really need more so can she let us know what the results of the huge questionaire indicate and when we need to go back. I hate the faffing with docs lol, she said make appoint in 6 months so we did then get an email saying will need be seen before that but with no date given:dohh: They were fast to reply last time so fingers crossed, will keep you informed though as it seems Milo and Ruaridh have a fair bit in common:hugs:

We ended up going to walmart last night and money got spent:haha: Got Eilidh a gorgeous outfit in 0-3m, it has at least 3-4in of spare material at arms and legs and gapes at the waist but its soooooo cute so she can just wear it :rofl: Got some hairdye too, going a dark brown from my blondey colour. Not brave enough to go short like you wild, pics please! Mines is about 5/6in from my butt now, its out of control. We had jack in a box burger too last night, yummy!
 
lol I thought so too Wild!

Arghhh the priest has given me the forms I need to complete for George's baptism, I never had anything like this for Joshua's! Neither of my Godparents are Catholic, oops! So had ro rope in a 3rd one, but they need to complete a declaration of intention, no problem... but also need to get their local priest to sign and date it and give consent - and I know my sister (roped in 3rd Godparent lol) doesnt go to mass so she wont know the priest personally unless father Bob is still there, which I doubt as he was retiring around the time I had Joshua baptised. Plus I started filling in the declaration on her behalf (before I knew it needed this extra bit) and wrote and signed her name in her maiden name, oops! She is so slow getting things done too so will take ages to get her to get the form sorted for me! :dohh: why does it have to be so hard!
 
Mummy I love all your childrens name - Can I be cheeky and ask how you pronounce them all please. :D xx
 
24/7, no problem, Freja is traditional way of spelling Freya and pronounced the same, Ruaridh, easiest way is "roo-ree" and Anja- Josaphine the Anja ia pronounced Anya like her big sis. Eilidh is "Aylee":flower:
 
Ooh new thats sounds like quite alot of work, hope you get it all sorted hun
 
Just speaking to my sister, father Bob has only just left, and may still be residing in the Parish house, so she is going to pop round next week for me but if he isnt there she is going to give the new priest spiel about how she was a regular parishoner of father Bob, I mean we all wewre baptised by him, all the family children were 9except George :() He was our priest at school, and me and my sister served on the alter for many years, not including the regular masses attended, oh and all the older kids and us had our confirmation and holy communion there, so me thinks that the new priest will be happy to sign it for her. I hope! Still lots of faffing about, glad she wasnt offended by being a 3rd Godparent though she understands that I wouldnt usually ask family but need a catholic person to be the named sponsor.
 
The news of the world paper has shut down, this Sunday will be the last ever edition!! Followers reports they also hacked phones of the families of Iraq and Afgan soliders who died!! It'll no doubt just start a paper in another name 'Sunday Sun' was mentioned on news but notw is a household name the allegations must be true, so terrible!!!
 
Really hope the new priest obliges new, I'm sure it'll be fine though:hugs:

Wow cant believe the paper closed, how awful for those affected. Shame for those innocent in the paper losing their jobs too, nasty situation all round:nope:
 
Took Josh to be weighed today and he's dropped another centile :(

He was on the 50th when he was born up until 6 weeks when he dropped to the 25th. Now he's 9 weeks and is nearly on the 9th centile. I know all babies are different but i'm worried he's got something wrong with him or they think i'm not looking after him properly! I keep thinking what if they call social services ( i probably sound like a right nutter over reacting :haha: ) . She said keep trying to give him more milk as he usually only takes 3.5 oz but how can i force a baby to drink more if he doesn't want it?
 
Could you go up another teat size meow? How much does Josh weigh now? xx
 
Meow im in the same boat with George, he has fallen from 75th centile to under the 9th :( You cant force them to eat more hun, you can offer but if they dont want it then they wont take it. With a bottle you can force a teat into their mouth, but not BFing but either way if they dont want to feed they wont. Joshua was the same hun, he went down to 2nd centile over the first couple of months, then sat there - but he made up for when he got to school, and is still shooting up lol You may find he weans earlier, Joshua thrived once we introduced food to him, but every baby is different hun and dont worry - they wont think bad of you they'll just want to support you. Main thing is Josh is healthy xxxx
 
24- He's already on size 2. He seems to drink fine, doesn't get bored or anything i just think he isn't a big eater. He weighs 10lbs 14oz now, 2 weeks ago he weighed 10lbs 5oz.

new- Yeah Josh is happy and he's sleeping 8-10 hours a night. Surely if he was hungry he would wake more frequently. Hopefully he'll pick up in a few weeks.
 
Joshua never liked milk, had minimum to get by, some babies are just pains in the bum and dont realise the worry they cause! Drs abd Hvs had me try different milks but he didnt drink much of any, eventually they said try baby rice - we never looked back lol Joshua was about 3-4years before he'd willingly take milk i had to give him loads of yoghurts and mix milk in loads of foods lol
 
:hugs: Brandi

Meow, how often does he feed? We have to feed 2 hourly, Eilidh only takes 2oz at a time, if they dont want they wont eat. Can you use higher calorie formula? Neosure over here is pretty good, can you get that over there? maybe add a little rice meal. Hope his weight picks up, its a horrid feeling:hugs:
