Mother of all conception months Graduates

[Ozzieshunni]

Afternoon all. I think he was feeding. When I un-latched him, he kept trying to eat his fist and was making a mouth like he was hungry. I eventually got him settled at midnight when I dragged his basket through the living room with DH. Then, he was fine I've tried moving his basket away from me after a feed to try and not have him smell me. Frankly, I'd rather him feed for that long during the late evening than at midnight to three like he was before. I'll ask the midwife on Monday if it continues today. He's sleeping now so I'm trying to take it easy.

Aw madly sorry your DH is making you feel so rubbish. On the poo front I think it'll be the colief combined with the water. I'm sure in the leaflet for the colief it mentions that poos can change and become more like the consistency of BF babies.

Does anyone have a travel cot? and do they find it back breaking to bend over?. i know you can buy basinette travel cots, bit dearer, but if a normal one isnt too bad then id buy one.

i must appologise to anyone who posts on here who i dont mention in mine, these days i have to speed read thru them all, and by the time i get to post Bailey is crying or something else is happening and i only get to do about 3 lines!.

 

[Ozzieshunni]

It's ok madcat, I'm sure with all our new little ones we're bound to do that at some point or another. We all know that we are here for each other, even if it is unsaid

 

[madcatwoman]

ive finally got DH in from the garden to keep an eye on bailey, just got out the shower!. Thanks Ozzie, i dont think i even congratulated you properly on the birth of your , only once quickly. I hope your both doing ok and enjoying being a mummy at last

Evening Ladies :wave:

Ozzies right madcat I always try to read and reply to everyones posts but sometimes its so hard especially with an unsettled Charlie right now but we are all in thre same boat (all the delivered grads anyway!) so am sure we are all understanding of this

Well I honestly and truly feel like giving up now Charlie has been unsettled since about 12.30pm and will only sleep in mine or DHs arms we have tried to put him down in his bouncer etc but he wouldnt have any so we tried to put him in his crib we pulled the blackout blind and closed the window even though its damn roasting here in Leeds today but 10min after we finally got him off he woke up again hes been funny with his feeding again and I really and truly dont know what else to do or try because am sure we have exhausted just about everything The longer this goes on the more I think that hes unsettled so much because hes hungry but he wont or knows for some reason he cant feed I feel so sure my baby is so unsettled because hes bloody starving Am going to chase up this referral tomorrow or am off to A&E this cannot go on

 

[Sofiekirsten]

Just a quick one from me...

Just some pictures of my little piglet!

[molly85]

hugs all.
cat we have a travel cot as a playpen i assembled thinking molly might eat abby whenin fact she loves her. its a serious bend i would test one inmotercsre or babies r us but the bassinet one is prob worth the money.

girls i want to take abby swimming being as she loves water, might even use a family pool but swim nappiesonly seem to start at size 2, tescos size 2s start at 6lb huggies who sell disposeable ones start at 7lb abby is 6lb 7/8 do i just risk iti am going to try a size 2 huggies on her but wanted your thoughts.

oh i think my tummy pains are a very faint period i have had a tiny bit of spotting

 

[gilz82]

Molly I found the smallest huggies little swimmers to be just a little smaller than a pampers size 1 nappy if that's any help.

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

madcat I agree with the bassinet travel cot .... Oliver had the bassinet attachment so well worth it my sister has the bassinet attachment but it also has a kinda swing/vibrating bouncy chair attachment too .... I will try to find a link for you

Molly I never used the disposable swim nappies sorry we bought the reusable swim pant ones

 

[molly85]

thats the other thing i was considering but her size is an issue

we went to drop at a card at the in laws and ended up going for curry poor matt was in bed. he took abby seen as my tummy was especially bad this morning I slept till 11.30 came down woundering where they were and this is what i found:

AW molly! that is so sweet and so funny all in one! bless him!

been indoors all day! was going to go for a late afternoon walk during dh's break but still way too hot, one of those evenings where i miss being able to get off the sofa at like 10pm and just go for a walk,there arent many things i miss from before leo was born but i suppose that is my one selfish thing i miss lol and even then would rather have a leo!

off to mablethorpe tomorrow night! going to be nice having some fresher sea air and less pollen flying around!

 

[molly85]

it won't be long and you'll have teens and be legging it out the house

 

[tas1]

oh I wish I was off to mablethorpe again but then it's not that far wish we had gone to the beach today just didn't think! If it's nice on Wednesday think I may suggest to go as my OH is off!

It's my birthday a week today and I didn't even realise until my mum said my sister comes back off her hols on my birthday!

Xx

 

[pinkclaire]

Ozzie I wrote you a massive reply last night on stuff you can do to help and my battery went on my phone as I went to send it! If it's bad again tonight let us know and I'll try again lol.

As for me I'm shattered, Ms on his period and being an arse so just a quick one hope everyone is ok. I have read but don't think my brain processed any of it!

 

[molly85]

lol claire. I spoke to ozzie a while ago and they had managed to get him to snooze in his car seat why do babies sleep where you don't want them to

 

[NOMORENUMBERS]

ha ha yeah thats what i thought, plenty of hot summer evenings in the future!

although one more day of puking like this and i will be back to the shops re-purchasing all my morning sickness "get through the day" essentials! fished out the sick bands doing naff all! i was literally onlya couple of weeks ago thinking how grateful i am to not havethe sickness any more and would trade sickness for the other problems i have been having any time! now i have all the problems AND morning sickness! wtf!

look up "some unfortunate women in pregnancy suffer symptoms all the way though. . . " in a pregnancy book and you will just see a picture of greasy haired, blood vessel burst face, eye bag me whilst clutching a sick bag with an air bubble going humpf . .. how many seconds are there in 8 weeks?

aw bless they do always fall asleep where and when they shouldnt bless him!

 

[molly85]

eugh i think ms does come back nasty stuff

 

[NOMORENUMBERS]

i know, i was reading a few weeks ago a thread about someone who's morning sickness had come back, poor cow i thought . . . darn it!

at least this time i am not working! morning sickness whilst working in a restaurant eugh with a chef who thought it acceptable to cook me loads of polish delicacies and once presented me with cold, fish and potato jelly . . . eugh erase thought puke puke puke he was so insulted i wouldnt eat it but honestly it was his version of jellied eels! i cant eat pasta let alone fish jelly eugh!
