We made the trimesters pass quickly!

Riya is the same way waking up at 4am each morning. Someone once told me though that it is normal for a baby to have colder hands and arms. They said its because its the last place to get blood circulation on a baby. It sounds to me like you are doing everything right Carly.

Amanda I love that he has a poo at the same time each morning!
The rest of her body is fine but it's just her arms and hands ill try a long sleeved vest under her sleep suit tonight and maybe 2 pairs of scratch mits. I just hate the thought of her being cold xx

 

[ab75]

So do I but would rather he did it at 7am haha xx

 

[Mummy to be x]

Archie always has old hands I'm forever putting mitts on him.x

 

[Carlyp1990]

That's the only reason I put scratch mits on Lucy.
Lucy only ever poos in the evening Amanda, and not everyday either.
what's everybody got planned for this week? Yesterday my best friend came round with her 2 week old baby and 4 year old son. Today I'm just doing housework. Jon's off tomorrow so we will probably end up going out somewhere. Thursday im going to a soft play area to meet another friend so she can finally meet lucy and then Friday we are taking the dog out early so we can watch the eclipse on the beach xx

 

[ab75]

Sounds like a good week Carly. I don't have any plans other than going down to Fife visiting on sat and think we might go swimming on Sunday xx

 

[Carlyp1990]

I'm thinking about going swimming next week But the pool near to me isn't very warm xx

 

[brunettebimbo]

Do any of you give your babies or toddlers/preschoolers vitamin D supplements?

 

[Carlyp1990]

Katie had vitamin d when I was pregnant because I bought myself the kids one from asda so we shared them lol. Apart from that no, we're out in the sunlight all the time so I don't think it necessary xx

 

[Mummy to be x]

Nope never given either of them vitamin D.

Carly that sounds like fun, I think where taking Madeleine to the pool on Saturday, I want to take Archie in but need to wait till my tubes out. I think Scott might need my help with both kids in the pool lol.

I really need to do a big food shop too!

 

[sethsmummy]

Seth has a multivitamin and mineral tablet but thats prescribed by his dietician. Before that i always gave him a multivitamin.. once ethan hits 3 he will get them too (theyre age 3+) I have ABIDEC for Ethan just now but he hates the taste. I dont give Rohan anything. xx

 

[Kiwiberry]

You ladies made me want to go swimming lol. You all sound like you have lovely weekends ahead of you!

 

[Swtpinkbabi]

Weekend plans sound great ladies. We're on spring break so we are taking London to see his dad's side of the family. I'm not looking forward to driving 14 hours with a baby. He barley makes it home from Daycare without crying and it's only a 20 min drive. On top of that it's supposed to rain all the way there and back. Ugh, I'm not looking forward to it. So I guess London is watching his figure or something. He is still not eating during the day at daycare. Yesterday he only ate a 2oz bottle at 10am and I don't pick him up until 330pm. I drop him off at 630am. How can he go all day only eating 2oz? I guess he's starting to reverse cycle. Makes me sad, he had been sleeping 4-5 hours at a time at night. Now he is back to 2 hours and waking to eat. Sorry guys I'm rambling. How are you ladies?

 

[Mummy to be x]

Pink, Archie is doing the same he's been really off his food during the day. Has London had his jabs recently? The doctor told me it can make them go off their food sometimes x

 

[Carlyp1990]

Morning ladies
Lucy slept great last night. She went to bed at 8:30 then woke at 1:30 then went back to sleep until 6 then fed and slept till 7:30

This mornings plans of going to a play area have been cancelled as katie has chicken pox xx

 

[ab75]

well done lucy. hope katie is ok.
theres a sign on zoe's nursery door saying that there is chickenpox going around in the afternoon session. i would rather these 3 got it now. i got it when i was 12 and it left scars xx

 

[Kiwiberry]

Good morning ladies! :wave: Hope you and your little bundles of love are doing great!

 

[Mummy to be x]

Aw carly sorry Katie's suffering but at least she's getting it out the way. Madeleine hasn't had it yet x

 

[Kiwiberry]

Omg Carly . I am so sorry Katie has chicken pox. I remember having those when I was a kid. So horrible . I thought they had a vaccine for those now, or does it not always work? I was hoping that Riya would not have to go through with having chicken pox.

 

[Carlyp1990]

They don't vaccinate over here suzy. Luckily she's ok in herself just abit spotty. My friends little boy had them a couple of weeks ago so we took katie round anyway as I'd prefer her to have them now. Lucy hasn't caught them yet but im sure she will soon as I can't keep them separate Xx
