Oh cloth nappies for me as well!

 

[mandzzzz]

I'm formula fed and tw, pnd

 

[Windmills]

I'll join in if anyone wants me! Daisy has duplex kidney, since her birth she's had 9 ultrasounds and a DMSA/Mag3. Also a week long hospital stay at 10 weeks old due to a kidney infection, a lumbar puncture, iv antibiotics and she's been on trimethoprim since birth.
We FF and did a mix of TW and BLW. We co slept and she's mostly coming out of it now and learning to sleep on her own. I think that's all the useful stuff. Oh, I had her at 19.

I'd buddy up x Lucas was prem, 1 week in SCBU, had numerous complications in pregnancy (bleeding, SPD, bad rash), Emergency C section. Comb of BF and FF, mix of finger food and TW. We learnt to self settle from early on. x Had bad PND, slowly getting better.

[Tacey]

Ooh, I'll join in if anyone wants me!

We did part time EC/cloth nappies, we attachment parent, co-sleep, BLW, BFing, ERF, and I'm a SAHM (what a lot of initials!)

 

[New2Bumps]

Aha, found it! Missed this first time around but I'd love to buddy up. My specific issues I could maybe help with:

Problems with BF, expressing - Ethan ended up on EBM and evenutally fully FF at 6w
Premmie - Ethan was a month premature and was in neonatal for just over a week (including cmas day )
Babywearing
Self settling

Yes a lot of initials! Looking through this it's strange as I was sure I'd do all of the above but it just didn't work out as expected, especially cloth nappies (he was prem and far too little leg wise after trying 5 brands had to use sposies and never went back) and the BFing (ended up ebm then ff). Wanted to BLW but Ethan much preferred TW, happy to co-sleep but he was such a contented sleeper that he was in his moses after a month, was very interested in attachment parenting and I did constantly baby carry him (infact he was only in a buggy about twice until he was nearly 7mo) but around the house much preferred to be on the floor with me rather than attached to me and after a while he slept in his moses in the day. Isn't it funny how things adapt and change to what's best for baby - such a wonderful journey. Will still be trying all of the above with baby 2 though and who knows what will be best for that little one.

 

[Harveysmum369]

Sorry ladies,have been doing a mad housework day due to being ill the last 2,I'm now going to catch up xx

 

[whiby]

I'll do it - Ethan had reflux, had plagiocephaly and I failed with bf so combi fed for a month or so then had to bottle feed. Happy to help where I can.

 

[DaisyBee]

I will do it if needed:

I am a SAHM
Megan was born at 37 weeks
Swaddled til 4 1/2 mo
FF
TW starting at 4mo
Megan was a sensitive baby, routine was important for her. She had horrible stranger anxiety very early & got overstimulated very easily.
She was an early talker but late crawler/walker.
She is much easier as a toddler than she was as a baby!

 

[Harveysmum369]

Just bumping this incase anyone else wants to put their name forward

xx

 

[Tacey]

Just to say thank you to Harveysmum for a great idea and for all the work of setting it up xx

 

[Lena]

Yes, big thanks Harveysmum. I now have a buddy myself who I can ask all my questions to when potty training starts and all that fun and am a buddy to a lovely pregnant lady who hopefully i can help too.

 

[Nichole]
