OH my god!. Isnt it awful if they start screaming when you go out shopping!, i too try a dummy or the last of the bottle and give up and come back home again!

 

[vbaby3]

Teagan doesn't have a dummy,but I knew it was her tired cry and she would stop in a couple of minutes.If shay hadn't been throwing a tantrum we would've been grand.
He'll not do it again in a hurry.he can't believe we came home,and he didn't get a treat!I don't keep choc or sweets in the house so they only really get a treat a couple times a wk when we go to town!

Yeh,teagan has done some almighty screaming in tesco a few times too,thank god the lovely girls there come and pack my stuff for me while I pacify her!its very stressful isn't it lol!!

Few cought up

So sorry about your grandad Nomore.

Cat abby can role on her side easily and probably can go right over its just a case of when now I really wouldn'tt worry about a special gadget to hold him in place. Grrr this next sale looks fab anyone want to buy stuff for me and i send you cash????? lol doubt i would make it on time to the stores near me. I have got abs some birts in teh m & co sake for next year and £2 jeans from asda

Madly sounds good on the job

Claire abby has a better bind with her grandmothers than matt as hes away so much. SHes all smiles for me but seems unsettled with him he drives me crakers saying things about my parenting. example shes kicking on the floor and doing tummy time and making frustrated noises trying to role back and i'm not picking her up instantly and hes telling me off. How the hell does he know she needs a bit of frustration to keep on trying then you help her over grrrrrrrr

I did send him to do her night feed but then he couldn't sleep so we might be doing an agreement that I do the night feed and he takes her in the morning so i get a lie in. She will prob go from 11 - 7 with 1 feed

Gilz i think of you every night wishing you a sleepy baby that will soon settle. I so hope he improves soon with this medication then weaning 4 months is so close but feels so far.

Yay for cardiologiost

Vbaby abby is now regularly taking 5oz over an hour she'l take 3oz then come back for 2 more. We are using the size 2 teats as bfing teh milk comes out super fast. She also has hungry baby at night asthe normal formula doesn't fill her for anywhere near as long.

Girls has anyones baby attempted to walk when you hold them up? I noticed abby takes partial weight through her legs when you hold her up feet on the floor then yesterday she was doing this on my lap and walked up my tummy. it seemed very deliberate and weight was her feet not just kicking around she was placing her feet. Is this normal? she won't lift herhead doing tummy time though will hold he head up when sat on your lap for a bit so supported walking is really a bit beyond her

hello all

have got a coumputer set up now in the boys new room so back in my virtual world finally, have missed you all.

Havent caught up on everything since my last post..

Nomore, so sorry about your grandad. Mine was like my father, and I went to see him after death. It looked nothing like him and I am now haunted by that waxy vision of him. I wish I could remember him in his greenhouse instead...big hugs hun and I am glad you are being looked after. Ditto re having time to grieve x

Gilz, I too would avoid an op unless absolutely necessary. I have seen this done in adults, then seen them again when it has caused problems with the wrap being too tight. It will have long term implications. I have seen loads of stuff done to children in their early years with all best intentions having surgery to correct problems caused by surgery. It is a vicous circle. Finger crossed with works for him

Madly - a whole year. Wowzer!!! Am so glad to have been part of it

 

[PeanutBean]

Yeah Molly. Indigo takes weight on her legs a bit now if I hold her up. The stepping is a developmental reflex. Did your doctor not check for it at Abby's 8 week check?

 

[molly85]

my doc seemed to know nothing. She was stunned at how alert abby got when she woke up then tried to roll on her side, she had no idea where her hearing results went when I asked. I wasn't sure what she was meant to do she just wiggled her her about for her hips i thinkshe picked her up but didn't seem to do much except to listen to her heart alot.

I am now concerned abby has 2 strawberry birth marks 1 on her head the other on her neck the one on her head is quite raised and bobbly the neck one is raised but the same height all over. Should I worry or just ignore it til sh grows out of itor hair grows over it?

Is it a reflex they grow out of or into?

 

[NOMORENUMBERS]

Thank you so much ladies for all your kind words.

i am glad i didnt go now, i was talking to my sister and well you all know we have a big family well there were 26 people there at one point to say goodbye and she was saying that when grandad was still alive it didnt look anything like him and when she saw him after he passed it looked even less like him so i am pleased that i dont have that thought

had a midwife appointment today blood pressure is actually better than before so obviously making the effort to not get to stressd is actually working

she also has actually been trying to call me re my c section although i get any missed calls and she is supporting c section the woman i was supposed to have a meeting with that i was waiting for midwife to call about is supporting my c section i just have to convince my consultant tomorrow but she said just say to them you said my last baby wouldbe small he was enormous and you cant promise me that my baby will be small this time. and that will do it.

would love to get a date for section tomorrow but not holding out.

gosh all these nightmare shopping trip stories are getting me worried lol i am still in that oh i am sur eeverything will be fine phase lol lol lol

 

[molly85]

Yikes abby loves to shop she just sleeps someone did once say I would get a good baby now her tummys always full she is

 

[madcatwoman]

Bailey has been taking weight on his legs for a long time now, erm, god, weeks, he's happy doing it!

 

[molly85]

normal then fab atleast for the grad babies

 

[NOMORENUMBERS]

i am hoping my baby is going to be a nice strong grad baby!

trying to get leo into a nursery school, have emailed a lovely montessori school in windsor which looks absolutely fabulous really hoping we can get him into it. it looks absolutely fabulous!

in the meantime i am going to try and find a nicer mother baby and toddler group, i have found one i think but the area we are in is really rough, a couple of times i have driven to the places and erm without being rude have taken one look at the people going in and thought erm no. dont get me wrong i dont like to think that i judge people on sterotypes but when i am getting my child out the car and the toddlers are swearing and the mums are talking about crash for cash schemes i am inclined to turn around lol

just watching jo frost parental guidence, i couldnt be writing down some of the tips fast enough lol

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

:wave: Evening Ladies,

for crap and disturbed nights and for babies who just wont keep still .... I have one of those

Yeah for baby group SK Charlie loves to go to ours

for a great appointment Ozzie

Happy meeting Indigo and Bailey

madcat personally I would take the positioner back and stick with the sleeping bags we found this much for effective with Oliver

Oh no vbaby sounds like a manic day saw the pics of your wee boy in his uniform by the way very cute and soooo smart GL tom for the jabs

NOMORE its ok I feel a bit like that too when I turn up somewhere and see who I will be spending my time with thankfully all the ladies at our baby group are lovely so I felt right at home So sorry about your Grandad again your sister is right you know I lost my grandad the day before Olivers 2nd birthday I spent alot of time with him and my nana whilst growing up because I hated my home life (long story!) I still miss him everyday and sadly have to say regret going to see him in his room in the nursing home just after he passed and I also went to the chapel of rest .... he still looked like my grandad but sometimes that memory of him is all I can think about

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

Gilz hon my next slot is also 9am-11pm

 

[molly85]

my granny was my second mum well my best mum and died when i was 8 she would not let me back to the hospital after 1 visit as she knewshe was going took me years to get the memory of her all yellow back and now i wish i hadn't she was a strong woman that all my family say i take after. poor abby is all i can my granny was very strict with her children

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

Those of you with VIP slots for Next tomorrow ....not sure there will be much left just had a look at pre-listing and there is hardly anything listed compared to early when I was having a browse reckon there will be even less come tomorrow morning

 

[tas1]

Hey ladies

Kate I too do that but there are alot of people like that in S****horpe so can't be too picky lol luckily alot of my friends have kids!

I want next slot but I'm now planning on getting up very early to be first in line lol I've done it before and I was four from the front!

Jo Caleb is very strong with his legs too and walking up my tummy if he is having a mardy on my shoulder not sure if I should be offended coz he puts his foot in the fat cracks lol

Cat I wouldn't use that postioner,if be only tries to roll when he is having a mardy then you will be awake anyway so no worry there! And he might not do it in his cot!

Caden is quite good shopping so it's just planning it around Caleb! I hope I haven't just jinxed it now lol

Well I've been made the bad guy with my inlaws,they want to take Caden to York to national railway I don't have a problem with that but my OH comes in from speaking to then saying Caden do you wanna stay at there house to make it easier for them so I said nope then Caden did lol! My reasons are very good I think 1. They let there dogs upstairs on beds and one of them is a springer which is double the size of Caden and triple he weight so I'm scared it will lay on Caden 2. Because they let their dogs about Caden will be covered with dog hairs,we stayed their one Christmas and his mum said she had changed the beds for us and I was like oh really there were dog hairs all over 3. Caden won't settle there he doesn't settle at my mums I know he has had a few days away with my parents but that was away from their house in an exciting hotel normally he wakes in the night and cries for me and because he doesn't go to the inlaws much it will freak him out too much! Am I unreasonable?

Xx

 

[PeanutBean]

Totally normal Jo. Can't remember how the stepping thing develops, sorry, but I remember it from Byron's check too. We had a trainee doctor in on Indigo's check so she kind if got two checks the consequence of which is that I could probably do a check myself. She had her eyes looked at, heart listened to, checked for skin tags in her armpits, checked her leg creases were even (sign of normal hips), checked her bits had everything they should have, did a manoeuvre I forget the name of where the legs are opened like a book which also checks hips, felt tummy, checked feet correct properly and hands grip, did the walking reflex and checked for head control.

I have done so much cleaning and tidying today. I'm beat!

 

[molly85]

For a non dog owner i would say no. Mols sleeps on our bed and abs is generally covered in hair from her but thats my way. Springers are ditzy creatures I livenext dorr to 2 and love them to bits but if hes not confident with them then nope just a visit would be best til hes bigger.


Madly as i can't get on there can you do me a favour and see if there is anything I would like and text me I'll send you the cash in the usual way I am looking for 6 months plus. really like nexts stuff, when is the sale on in store?

 

[NOMORENUMBERS]

no you are not unreasonable at all!

i dont let leo stay over places because he has a very set routine of what he likes at bedtime and even if we follow it to the letter at another house he still screams and screams. we went out last night and my mum very kindly offered to look after leo for a few hours during bedtime at hers. i was taking bets as to where he would fall asleep. my mum was like what shall i do with him at bedtime, i simply said he will fall asleep when he is tired, if you do not want to battle to get him to sleep then he will eventually cuddle up to you and fall asleep on you on the sofa or he will cuddle his blanket and fall asleep somewhere random, once asleep you can move him anywhere

he fell asleep at 10pm (poor mum!) on the living room floor, he was so zonked that he didnt wake up when we took him downstairs, outside in the rain and fiddling around with putting him in his car seat lol

anywho re the dogs you a right! my mil has cats and they sleep on her bed which is the one we sleep in when we stay over, she changes the linen for us and keeps the door shut so they cant get it. THAT is what your mil should do! just because she doesnt care about the hair doesnt mean that everyone else doesnt! (sorry molly lol just read your post if it were my own pet i also wouldnt care lol but also her cat moults like absolute mad, you could make a whole new cat from what sticks to you in an hour lol)

also the size of the dogs would worry me too i wouldnt leave them in a room on their own let alone in the whole house with someone else in charge! doesnt matter how nice they are supposed to be i am just funny around animals stronger than my child

i know its nice to ensure that if someone is looking after your child that you make it easier on them eg for me it is to take leo to their house as opposed to them doing a 33 mile trip there and back but at the same time they are they ones that want to take him out for the day they will just have to bring him back at the end of it

 

[molly85]

lol peanut im sure she did all that i was just minorly concerned taht she tried waking abby by banging a toy next to her head and she didn't wake up til she got cold lol
