Madcat Bailey is doing so well tell me more about these crystals as for little boys not minding if they are dirty Charlie is the opposite he cries when he poos (alot of babes do right!) but he also screams when he has a wet nappy when he starts screaming we do the tick list and when we realise the only thing it can be is his nappy we change it and hes all smiles as soon as he realises your changing his bum .... hes a funny child

Tas yeah for cleaning out I cleaned Olivers bedroom yesterday whilst he was at school and at MILs for tea and filled two black bags of his `models` am a baddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd Mummy great news your inlaws are coming to sort your OH and cash out

As for land of Madly ....

We arent doing so good today either Charlie just doesnt want to feed between 10am and now he has only taken 6oz all day..... between 10am and 2pm I struggled to get him to take 3oz because he was just taking little sips or refusing to take any milk at all and at 4pm when I got home from the school run he took a full 3oz bottle .... no wonder really cause he was probably so bloody hungry I got talking to a fellow Mummy today in Tescos and she told me that some baby formulas are higher in sugar than others (which is why colicky babies settle better on some formulas than others!) and sugar irritates colic no end and that I should ask for the higher calorie formula because this will be lower sugar We are using gripe water and for the best part it works but hes still refusing milk am so confused .... My HV is coming to weigh him tomorrow so am going to discuss it with her (my HV did say cow & gate which Charlie is on is less rich than other formulas so I guess the Mummy in Tescos is right about that!) am not expecting him to have gained a great amount in the last two weeks since he was last weighed but we will see He has his jab and 8wk check next Thursday so I can ask the Dr about the higher calorie milk then I just dont know wether this is colic or silent reflux the consultant and Dr both now think colic because even on the strongest reflux medication Charlies unsettled patterns didnt change ie he still refused milk and his intake hasnt inproved but I just dont know anymore

 

[Sofiekirsten]

Madly is Charlie snuffley at all? Like he is getting a cold? My MW told me that babies who are unwell don't feed very well?

Hopefully other mummies with more experience could help you out....

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

Thanks Sofie hon

I did think he had a rattly chest on Sat/Sun but it seems to have settled down now hes just done `THE` biggest dirty nappy so I think maybe he had tummy ache he seems ok now

I order one of those kits two applicators and two wipes thingey theres room for error then!

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

Someone shoot me

I keep ordering things of ebay and keep forgetting to do this through the nectar website to get my nectar points grrrrrrrrrr!

 

[molly85]

ohh instructions madly i have nectar

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

Well you go onto the nectar website log into your account and then click on the ebay link which brings up another browser window then you log into your ebay account and you get points on what you buy only am an idiot and keep forgetting to do it

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

Works too if you bid on something and win it as long as you bid on it through the nectar site

 

[molly85]

complicated.

is anyone having a party or doo to introduce their baby to friends and family?

 

[pinkclaire]

Gilz I do it to Charlotte over her clothes and it does seem to help! Can't believe the conflicting advice you've got! How frustrating for you! Does he root if he's hungry? (sorry hope that doesn't come across wrong but I'm not sure whether FF babies root?!) that's the way I can tell if Charlotte is hungry rather than uncomfortable? In hindsight I think I fed James to often which probably made his reflux worse

What's this about nectar? Missed that!

 

[molly85]

claire do i have a daft baby she trys eatting my arm i am presumming this is her hungry?

how often is she feeding? abby isgoing 2 hours from the end of her last feed occasionally 3 same at night are we rougghly on track for bfing?

 

[pinkclaire]

Yeah sounds like she's rooting Molly, also they will suck your finger if they are hungry. If you put a baby on your chest they will find your nipple themselves if they're hungry, it's pretty amazing I think!

Sounds perfect to me! Lottie is approx 3hrs from the start of a feed to another! How long is she feeding for?

 

[tas1]

Madly your not a bad mummy just an organised one,I cleared some toys out the other month and caden hasn't noticed they have gone,they are in my downstairs cupboard waiting for car boot or someone to buy through the paper! My OH is gonna do a car boot on Sunday with his mum to raise some money for us! They talked to us about all money problems and hopefully it will work just gotta cut back on stuff!
I too didn't know about eBay and nectar which I will be doing from now on!

Gilz that's terrible about your doctor! Could you not give him calpol (it's my answer to everything) they can have 2.5mls twice a day from 2months(my doc told me that when I took caleb when he was 6wks old and he had a cough) might take he pain away to at least get him to sleep!

I have a pound to lose then I'm pre pregnancy weight

Xx

 

[pinkclaire]

Wow that's amazing tas well done! I weighed myself a week ago and I had lost 10kilos so another 5 to go to prepreg. Hopefully that's even less now! I just need to get rid of these horrid stretchmarks on my tummy. I'm so gutted about them I can't even bare my DH to look at me at the moment!

 

[molly85]

claire usually 10 -20 mins not usually more than 30. ohyes the chest crawling is mental

she seems to have stopped proper napping i think she has maybe had 12/13 hours sleep in the last 24 how they do this when shes still meant to be on 18 is beyond me
