Did you get any sleep before that Molly? I'm shattered too, Noah seems to be responding well to the reflux meds now but this stuff nose is killing me. I've tried everything, nasal spray, bowls of warm water to keep the air moist and last night we used a menthol vaporiser and he still can't breathe so spent most of the night panicing and screaming.

If this lasts as long as Indigo's stuffy nose Peanut I'll have gone round the bend listening to him screaming

Caleb has a snotty nose has done ever since he was born,I've tried the sprays and snuffle babe but nothing has worked for him! It's only now that snotty is coming out!
Have you got one of those suckers that you can put up his nose?
May sounds cruel but I get a cotton bud and gently move it round his nostril so if there is any loose snot it comes out,I don't put it all the way up his nose just the entrance bit

Morning all,
sorry to hear about all the snotty noses..i'll have that joy to come!.
What imnot looking forward to is taking Bailey for his Jabs at the end of this month, im really not

Yep i get those aches like im going to come on, but dont and it goes away!.

Another rainey day here!

i had so many lovely smiles tho at my 2am feed, they came and they came and they came!

 

[gilz82]

Oh yay for night time smiles Madcat

I'm dreading Noah's jags, they are on thursday and they are already a fortnight late, the hv kept putting them back cos he was so unsettled with his reflux. He's got his hip ultrasound on Thursday too, I can sense that might be a very crabby day for Noah.

Tad i have a bogey sucker thing, rarely get anything out of his nose with it though.

 

[tas1]

To be honest I used the sucker thing with Caden and never got anything out so I haven't bothered this time but every baby is different so thought I'd say!

I have Calebs jabs tomorrow and now I feel sick! I remember them with Caden and had to stop myself from punching the nurse I kelt telling myself he needs these jabs he needs them....slightly surprised I was admitted in the mentalward for talking to myself lol


I've put pics up of Caden when he was a baby so you can see how much Caleb looks like him!

I really wanna get some jobs done and eat but Caleb fell asleep on me so I don't wanna disturb him although he is making me sleepy !

I think night time smiles makes you feel more ok with getting up with them. I love getting smiles cheers me up

Xx

Indigo has been a bit mad. Fed about half 7 last night then slept til 3! But then woke again a half 4 Managed to get her off again eventually. We've don't a bath and are all ready to go to a parents forum that starts in 5 mins. Naturally I just got the email to say the pram covers are coming between 10 and 11. So unless they arrive bang on 10 I miss the group. Fab. My girl has just fallen asleep in the bouncer again.

Also, her nose is clearing now. Didn't cough at all in the night I don't think so after nearly a month she is finally moving on from her cold.

 

[vbaby3]

hi girls,been mia again,took ages to catch up!

Gilz glad noahs medication seems to be working.Teagans cold lasted 2 wks,and now she'd still congested at night but ok during the day.Its unreal isn't it?as 1 thing starts to get better somethinbg else happens

madly,your gorgeous boys are the double of each other!

The nightfeed smiles make me feel guilty coz i'm so grumpy in the middle of the night lol!

Well teagan is getting so colicy now i'm changing her formula yet again.Just have to get the new teats to try aptamil comfort.I absolutely cannot get her wind up EVER,by evening she's in so much pain.After her nightfeed at 2.30/3am she's so tired and goes back to sleep,but she's waking again an hr or 2 later screaming in pain with a rock hard tummy.
I really don't want to wish away her gorgeous newbornness,but god i cannot wait to get the point when i can feed her and not have to worry about the screaming and the pain.i feel bad for my 2 boys too,who are really still babies themselves coz i seem to have her on my knee half the day

I stopped bleeding after 3 wks.Been crampy the last wk or so.

On the subject of leaving your baby with someone,the only 1 who's had my kids overnight is my mam,and its been because i'm going out so she's doing me a favour.
I did leave shay when he was 6wks old,it was a wedding away with an overnigth stay.As soon as I got a few drinks into me I couldn't stop crying lol!!My heart ached for him.I think I rang my mam 18times lol!!
So don't do it til you're ready.
I will be leaving all 3 with my mam on the 2nd of july,and I have to say I can't wait!!I think it gets easier with subsequent children lol!
Its a hotel stay for the celtic supporters annual dinner dance(you'd love it gilz!)We go every year.A chance to get dolled up,and drink and dance til the wee hours!And I will gladly leave the kids and go let my hair down.I definately need the break!

 

[tas1]

Caden is going away for a couple of days soon and I'm looking forward to being able to sleep when Caleb does but I know I will want him back and most probably cry!
Everyone keeps telling me I need a night out but I'm not bothered about going out I just wanna stay in and be with my boys! I'm sad I know

Xx

 

[Ozzieshunni]

I don't feel well. My back is hurting and I keep getting period like cramps again. DH needs me to iron his slacks and shirt for his interview today (fingers crossed he gets this job!!!!!!!!) but I have no energy. I feel like crying today. I had nightmares all last night! I just want to be able to sleep without dreaming! Sorry, I'm a right moan today!

everyone.

Hi Ladies :wave:

to all the Ladies and babes with snotty noses and colds it truly is crapness

Am too dreading the jabs must remember tissues as am sure I might end up in tears

Peanut they are truly taking the piss over your buggy and replacement bits

vbaby YEAH! for getting and letting your hair down Poor little Teagan though I keep telling myself three months is just around the corner although I too dont want to wish his newborness away

Well Ladies am on my own overnight for the first time with both boys DH is away overnight with work and will be back late tomorrow evening I do hope Oliver is settled tonight and we dont have any tears which lead to him making himself We have crap overcast looks like its going to weather again ah well if all else fails I will sling Charlie and taxi or bus it to do the school run and thanks to my batch making/freezing of food I have tea sorted we are having homemade lasagne and garlic bread following by chocolate cream cake bang goes my diet too Tas

 

[Ozzieshunni]

Nummy Madly!!! Can I come over for tea?

 

[tas1]

I was thinking the same Ozzie,lasagne sounds good and chocolate cake lol

Ozzie go for a bath and see how you feel afterwards!

Xx

 

[Ozzieshunni]

I probably will, but I'm just going to buckle down and get this ironing done for DH.

 

[PeanutBean]

Ozzie.

Vbaby I know what you mean about wishing the time away. Mine's even more precious for having to go back to work but sometimes it is just hard. I can't wait til Indigo can be better entertained without having to carry about to look at things. She's such a whinge bag at the moment!

Good luck madly though you will be fine. These things always just work out in the end I suppose because they have to!

I finally have the right pram covers and so far they seem to be functional! The raincover came today too so all systems go for the buggy at long last. I made the last 45 mins of the group and got some free books for my trouble. Indigo slept throughout and is still asleep in her pram and I've just had a butty. Yum. Tea, crisps and pudding still to come.

 

[tas1]

Glad you got to use your pram and raincover at long last pb!

I'm just feeding caleb then I'm gonna try get out as the sun has come out so wanna make the most of it lol

Xx
