I think she's due October 11th or 18th?

ETA: 36 weeks from now is October 18th.

oooh Logan how exciting can't wait to see wat they say at your next appointment

Sarah tell me about it, it's a shock to the system alright !!

Andrea yes I'm BF but to be honest it's the crying/screaming when he has wind and is having his nappy changed that I struggle with more... he takes ages to settle!

 

[AmaryllisRed]

Dude, what is it with babies hating to have their diapers changed?? DS used to HATE it!! I guess it's the nakedness... Isn't it funny? They hate being naked at this age, then they get to be two and you can't keep clothes on them!!

 

[FloridaGirl21]

my cousin daughter refused to put a pamper on after her baths and she'd rip her clothes off whenever she felt like it, diaper too... Now she's a "big girl" (she's 3) and she refuses to show her "boobies" (she won't get undressed) to anyone but her mom. LOL

Is there anything that can make diaper changes more IDK, 'enjoyable', for lack of a better word, for the babies when they are so small?

 

[AmaryllisRed]

Go as fast as possible.

Ysa if u find out please let me know !! We have tried a dimmer bulb in the nursery and also music..

Jen that cracked me up ! So many people have told me little boys LOVE getting naked ! !

Andrea ur amazing, how can u go away for that long and then have visitors when u get home! My worst nightmare !!

ALSO (!) is it just me or did/does anyone cry all the time, I am crying at everything - Tv, Steve, Bloody Visitors, Harry.. getting upset when he cries..over thoughts of him ever getting ill or anything happening to him.. gees it's wearing me out

I really hate that everyone wants to come round, I just want to get used to everything and have H more settled first, is that too much to ask

 

[AmaryllisRed]

Yeah, pretty sure the crying is normal.

Haha DS went through a phase where he wanted to be naked-- actually just in his pull-up or undies-- and now he's mostly over it, but he still occasionally takes advantage of the time when I'm running his bath to run naked through the house! And it's not uncommon for me to check on him in bed to find that he has taken his pj's off-- and also taken the pillowcase off the pillow!!

I found a HB I couldn't record it cause I kept loosing it and I had to really push down to get it. But it was about 161bpm and I heard it before the monitor recognized it. It was beautiful

 

[Sun_Flower]

oh my god Ysa that's amazing! I couldn't find Eden's till really late on but I remember Andrea finding Josie's really early, and you've got twice the chance of finding one, lol! Does anyone else find it weird remembering things like Andrea finding the heartbeat for the first time and that heartbeat being Josie-baby now? It's so hard for my brain to put the two things together, lol!

 

[FloridaGirl21]

I think like that too Raych! Its insane!

I was able to record it.

So we've moved Eden from a bottle every 4 hours to one every 3 hours, which she's taken to fine and is still chugging her milk down. What that means is that by 8 o'clock she's had as much milk as she would normally have by 11. She's currently asleep... I'm wondering whether to head off to bed too and see how long she sleeps, because who knows, if she's got enough food in her she might sleep through? I'll make a bottle and put it in the fridge so I can heat it up quickly if she does wake up in the middle of the night. I kinda feel like it's worth me having to possibly get up in the middle of the night and feed her just to see what she does, and whether she does actually sleep through, rather than me waiting up till midnight and waking her to feed her a couple of extra ounces, you know? xx

Also - can't believe Eden is 10 weeks today, where's the time gone?

 

[lilrojo]

Yay Ysa.. thats great.. I found mine really really good around 10-12 weeks..

Just cant wait for baby.. lol

Vicki it is very normal to cry after having a baby.. lol and about everything is normal too..

 

[QueenVic]

Ysa thats amazing

Happy 10 weeks Eden !!

 

[Sun_Flower]

*yawn* well that didn't necessarily work as well as I'd hoped, but it wasn't TOO bad. She slept from 9.30pm till 2.30am when she woke up and I gave her a bottle, then she slept from 3am till 8am. I think if I had gone to bed earlier than 11pm it wouldn't have been too bad. Mind you I'm not TOO tired this morning. Now I just have to work out if I'm more tired staying awake till midnight then sleeping through till 5 when she stirs then sleeping uncomfortably till 8 with her in our bed, or sleeping from 10pm, getting up in the middle of the night then going back to sleep. HMMMM. Decisions...

 

[sspencer99]

Morning all xx

 

[babydustcass]

hey again,

just popped on to say to tracey,

Congratulations!! Such wonderful news!! I am so happy for you, have a wonderful and healthy pregnancy, you deserve it! Big hugs from all of us xxxxx

 

[sept10]

Tracy - congrats!!

Vic - i totally get it its the wind/crying after feeds thats a pain....well other then the actual pain when he doesn't latch on proberly....i know Darragh is only a couple of days older then harry but honestly in the last few days he is much more alert and now doesn'r really let the changing him or wind upset him anymore, he just seems to lie there and look around or stare up at me...also i was changing breasts in every feed but i've stopped that now and keep putting him back on the same breast in one session - that ensure i empty the breast and he gets hindmilk as well as just foremilk - seems to make the wind better and less spitting up milk aswell.

know what you mean about the tears...mine started a few days ago - escalated yesterday when my mum left - i'm hoping i'm in more control of my emotions from today.......last night i started crying and didn't know why and me and my hubby ended up laughing with me still crying...odd.

Darragh has also put weight on when he had his 10 day weigh in...now 8lb 5oz - i was such a proud mummy!!!

logan/jen.......not long now!!!!
Stacey - 29 weeks...can't believe how fast its gone - it really hit me when i got to 30 weeks that i was gonna really really have a baby soon...its crazy...enjoy!!

 

[AmaryllisRed]

Hehe Sarah, you're still 42 weeks and 2 days pregnant!! Time for some new tickers, maybe?
