Hey guys,
Hope all of you are doing well, really need some advice (as normal)
I have a 900watt microwave, it takes me 60secs to warm up a 3oz bottle which is cold being left in fridge... is this the normal amount of sec's to warm up a bottle? We think our microwave isnt working properly..
I started breast feeding only (she just all of a sudden got the hang of it ) but she falls asleep when i feed her, so all she does now is sleep feed and cry, when i was bottle feeding her she would have at least 30-hour of play time...is this normal?
I have brought a pouch type sling... i need a sling so i can do house work (she wont let me put her down) do you think this type of sling will be ok?
Anyone else been offered the BCG injections? now they have stopped doing it when they are teenagers, we get it offered as we are near heathrow.. but only a few places get it offered..she has hers at 5 weeks.
Becs- thanks for posting about the jumparoo's in argos, i wanted to buy one but £90 was way to expensive for me, but with argos doing the £10 voucher it works out almost half price... but finding one in stock anywhere proved a huge challenge... only found one out of 12 argos's !!! its Paiges xmas present.
Hi, I'm finding it hard getting on here. All 4 children at home this week and I am beyond exhaustion now.
Baby Sophia is no trouble just always on the boob. I just wanted to say I am reading when I can, don't want you to think I've forgotten any of you. xx
Example, while writig this and burping baby, kids have let themselves intpo the garden and it's raining, they are playing rugby getting covered in mud, ruining my lawn with rugby boots on and my 2 year old is stripping off in the rain...god help me...time to go again!!!!
Snoozie, I think the best advice i ever had was if they are doing something that isn't hurting them or someone else just let them get on with it, clear the mess later! It made me step back from saying no constantly, it was good advice!
I currently have a baby on my arm, a 2yr old cuddled up to me with a tube of pringles, a 7 yr old next to her arguing with the 10 yr old who is rolling about on the floor!
It is a rare moment i am alone!
did make me giggle.. i thought just having two was hard work..but ill be honest i would have another now if i could.. We even thought about trying in a month or so, i would spend 6 months of my pregnancy on maternity leave. But i know when they reach 2ish ill get broody again so i should space them out a little ....
BTP - I can't stand Ronnie either but I do love take that
I was up most of the night last night feeding and even after stopping expressing 6 days ago due to short supply I'm still leaking milk... Is that normal? So I gave JJ a b quick breastfeed last night to try and calm him down . I've managed another breastfeed today. I seriously don't get it when u wanted to bf I had nothing now when I decided to stop bf my boobs are leaking for days....mother nature is cruel
Quick question from what age should JJ be given toys etc to interact with? It doesn't feel right that he's nit being stimulated in some way but not sure if he needs it at 3 weeks old?
Hope everyone us well xx
My mate who is a breast feeding councilor, breast fed for 2 years, she tried to express too once and only got 4oz in 24 hours. She said that expressing will only take milk from the "storage already made milk" but when a baby sucks and uses up the "storage milk" it gets the milk straight from it being made.. does this make sense? Now how true this is i dont know but if it is true then this makes sense to why some people cant express much but when a baby sucks milk will always be there.
Even at this age babies do cry because they are bored, so they will let you know, flashing lights keep paige amused for ages....she has a baby gym and tries to hit the toys.... but she starts crying after 20 mins, infact after 20 mins of anything she starts getting bored, eating, sleeping, playing... nothing keeps her quite for long.
Welcome back Asher!
I've noticed loads of you have got Take That tickets now, bet you're all excited! The last music festival I went to was Download 2002!
Genies - Costume sounds really good to me.
Emzy - Baby coos are toooooo cute
I still havent got my baby back yet! I woke up late and first thing I did is ring my parents "Where's my baby? when are you bringing her back?" getting serious withdrawl now
On another note, I don't read my OH's texts but when I used his phone to call my parents I noticed a text message open from his mum, who was asking about his bank balance to make sure we're keeping up with the bills and she's said that she's worried because we have people over every weekend drinking(the last 3 weeks!?) and that I'm always buying things. Cheeky beyotch! I'm really annoyed this morning. I thought I was getting on with his mum alot better lately, and I'm trying really hard to see things her way even when shes basically telling me what to do, giving me uneeded advice, bossing ben around and stuff then she's sending him texts about me "spending too much"
Everything i buy is out of my own account and my own money, I'm not spending my OH's money. Think she should mind her own business to be honest.
OMG what a cow !!!!!!! what does your OH say about it? i would put her straight.. not that you should have to...
