*** NOVEMBER 2011 BABIES ! *** Chrysanthe-Mums - 39 babies here already!!!

Fides - unfortunately bigger bottles don't always lead to longer sleep. I've had a few nights when logan's had a nice big bedtime bottle (210 - 240ml instead of the usual 180ml), and he still wakes at exactly the same time as if he'd only had 150ml at bedtime.

thanks - that's really interesting.

Fides, that awesome that your PND is going away and that the colic seems to be subsiding. Sorry you have been having such a hard time...when Josie cries I literally lose my mind. :wacko:

TLH, congrats on your wedding!! Yay!!

AFM...Josie is slowly getting over her cold. She still has coughing fits at night...but is generally fine during the day. Oh and DH has an interview for a job today, praying he gets it as he has been out of work for quite a while!!

awww, poor Josie - glad she has a good mommy to give her hugs when she coughs; good luck to your DH with the interview - prayers!
 
Eden drinks between 6 and 7oz every 4 hours... not sure what that is in ml... just googled it and apparently 7oz is 200ml lol. Can't believe she's 12 weeks tomorrow! Going to get her weighed - she was 13lb 3oz two weeks ago so we'll have to see what she's got to now!
 
Josie is still Coughing during the night. Poor doll...but is fine during the day (just a little runny nose).

But DH got the job!!

Oh and Happy 12 weeks Eden!! Josie was 16 weeks on Wednesday...its going by so fast!!

Its so interesting to hear who much FF babies are getting as I really have no idea how much Josie gets...when I pump I can only get out 4-5 oz now (after a feed)...when I used to get like 10 so I think her consumption has increased.
 
hi everyone! madelyn has been sleeping all night for about a month now with a few random nights where she cant seem to settle but luckily she usually sleeps from about 730pm-6am (i give her a bigger bottle at 730 or 8) shes a pro at rolling from her belly to her back and gets extremely frustrated when she cant get from her back to her belly. she hasnt figured out how to move her shoulder out of the way :haha: she also found her voice and will just babble for hours!! she's also in 3-6 months and 6month clothes because she is really long and has big feet. her main issue is squeezing her feet into the footed pajamas! on another note me and her daddy are getting married in 8 days! we're just having us and immediate family at our house to do it nothing major but im excited!

congratulations! enjoy it!! :wohoo:



can't believe your baby is sleeping through the night and has been - my LO has been getting in a good 4-5 hours here and then - how are you getting her to drink a bigger bottle at 7:30 or 8? Yesterday was probably the 1st time my LO had 4 oz in one sitting, and that was around 1 pm; his 7:30 or 8 bottle is usually around 2 oz - i don't know how to get him to drink more, but i think if he did he'd sleep longer. :shrug: any tips would be appreciated! :)

anyway, congrats! :happydance:


my LO has had issues with formula and feedings since she has reflux so she eats 3 oz every 2 hours during the day. at 730 or 8 we give her 6oz and she usually sleeps all night. there are still some nights where she'll get up at 2 or 3 but usually goes right back to sleep. i don't really do anything different i just give her the 6 oz and sometimes she falls asleep before she finishes it all and other times she sucks it down. she uses her bottle as her soother rather than a pacifier so i dont know if that has something to do with it
 
hows everyones weekend going???

haven't done much, but realize after having DH gone for 3 days, how much easier it is to have him here so I can get relief and do things.

had some friends over, went out to dinner, playing a board game with some friends tonight...real exciting life we lead...:haha:
 
isn't it crazy how much your life changes after having a baby?!? im only 22 and me and OH joke about we used to go to bed smelling like cigarettes and alcohol and now we go to bed smelling diapers and formula :haha:
 
:haha: it is crazy, isn't it?

for the record, though, i actually like board games - we just haven't been able to manage playing any since LO was born...
 
2 1/2 - 3 1/2 oz per feeding, 7-10 times a day.

and yours?
 
she eats 6ozs in morning and than ever 2-2 1/s hrs she eats 4 ozs and night time a 6 oz rice/formla botle
 
As much as she likes. Anywhere from 4-9oz a feeding, and they can be anywhere from every 1/2hr to 4hrs.
 
Anything between 25 and 35 oz a day depending on how hungry she is - between 5 and 7oz every 4 hours
 
i'm really interested to hear other people's babies are eating randomly and often. Fides and leopard - are your babies on formula or bm?

Logan drank a full bottle every 4 hours like clockwork up until 12 weeks, and since then he's been drinking random amounts at random intervals. Yesterday he fed 10 times!!! Other days he only drinks 5 times. One feed he'll drink 210ml (7oz), another only 60ml (2oz). It's ruddy confusing!

He generally drinks between 27 and 31 oz per day.
