Yay, you're back saz! I'm glad you had a nice time, it sounds fab! Yes I was thinking of you when we were talking about all the Leos too
Wesley has cut right back on his feeding times too (apart from a growth spurt that he had last week, OMG that's been rough!), and his weight gain has taken a bit of a dip lately, he's gone down to the 9th from the 25th percentile. It seems to be a bit of a common pattern with BF babies, though as there's a thread n the BF part of the forum where lots of mums are saying their LOs slowed down at around 3 months too. My HV isn't worried.
Uh oh, that does sound a lot like Leo is teething doesn't it?!
I don't envy you at all there!
I haven't heard of any assessment, maybe they don't do it here? He has to go for more injections at 16 weeks but that's it as far as I'm aware
We've had some rotten late nights lately too. Olivia hasn't been too bad because she plays in her room till she's tired so it doesn't actually bother anyone and she's still up at 6am anyway but Wesley is becoming a pain. Last two nights he hasn't gone down till 8pm and its been a real uphill struggle getting him there. He rarely feeds to sleep anymore unless I take him to bed and lie down with him feeding till he falls asleep. Otherwise its rocking and bouncing for half an hour or so
Kyles, Olivia is like that with the baby's toys too, she also tries to sit in his bouncy chair or push her teddies in his swing. Wesley has a white noise frogy that we stupidly let Olivia borrow before he was born when she was going through one of her anti-bedtime phases. At the time we explained to her that she was just borrowing it and we thought she understood but now its "that's my froggy!!!!!" Every time she sees it in wesley's cot
Shradha, sorry for the rough night with shresh. I hope he sleeps better for you tonight
Your temp dip could possibly mean implantation has happened, if it goes back up tomorrow its a really good sign. I'll keep my FX for you!
I'm very excited about olivia's birthday party next week! Yesterday I went out and bought all the things for the party bags and lunch boxes. They're each having a jungle themed lunch box with a sandwich, packet of teddy bear crisps, and a box of raisins. Then I'm going to put carrot and cucumber sticks, cherry tomatoes and grapes out in pots on the table, then a choice of squash or water to drink. Will that be enough for them? For the parents I'm just doing tea coffee and posh biscuits.
In their party bags they will get a balloon, little packet of colouring pencils, a jumping frog, mini bottle of bubbles, a little chocolate bar and a piece of birthday cake. Is that too much?
The whole shebang has only cost me £150, including venue, bouncy castle, food and party bags for up to 15 kids
