I am sat here in the kitchen and Sam is whingeing away in bed on the monitor. I am trying to be tough but it's hard. He's full and clean and just needs sleep now. He's right on the edge of sleep but not nodding off. The problem is that if I pick him up, he'll fall asleep straight away, I'll put him down and then two mins later he'll jump in his sleep and wake himself up. Then he won't know where he is cos it's not where he fell asleep, so he'll be upset again! So I am being tough, reassuring him he's ok and giving him big kisses and hugs every couple of minutes, and walking out of the room. Ah it's hard. But I've been there before with Jack and it was a 2 and a half year nightmare in the end!!
Jayne, I bought some dentinox today too for Sam's cradle cap, as it looked blooming awful this morning when he got up. I've used it once tonight and it already looks a little bit better. FX'd it clears up soon! I hope James' ear is okay too! Poor love!
Aw Jelly, sounds super frustrating!! It's awful being cooped up when you don't have to be. These crisp winters days are sometimes the best for getting out with little one all bundled up in the pram, nice fresh air into everyone's lungs! I hope your crib does the job once it's up! Which one did you get in the end? Loving your most recent FB pics of JJ, he's a right cutie, loving his gorgeous outfits too! I think I'm always asking where you get stuff from!!
Ouch Emzy, worth getting checked out if so uncomfortable.
We've DTD a fair few times now, and I have a little sore area which feels as though it's stretching. I don't remember it being this bad after the other two boys, so maybe it's just an accumulation of births or because Sam was bigger than the other 2. How delightful, I don't think the OHs get just how uncomfortable it can be. I'm sure they just think we're trying to make excuses to get out of DTD. My OH always goes on about how women want to DTD every night if they're TTC, but as soon as that's done they can't be bothered anymore. Blah blah blah it does my head in!!
I just googled cradle cap to learn a bit more about it. It seems it's basically just baby dermatitis. Leftover pregnancy hormones in the baby make them secrete more oil, which skin cells then stick to, hence the yellowy flaky scaly stuff. Weird eh?
Am going to pop up to check on little legs, he's gone quiet so I think he's nodded off. Will give him a sneaky kiss and come back down. Secretly I just want to pick him up and get in bed for cuddles with him, but I'll resist!!!
I said its my birthday 10th dec and it would be nice to have sex!!
yeouuchh!!
I'll give it til Sunday and then Matt is going to draw them and reply to all the messages for me, so I don't know who got who and then who gets me is still a secret! Is that alright with everyone?
