Hey everyone! It's been a long while since I've posted on here, whoops!
I've only read the last couple of pages so sorry if something really exciting or important has happened and I've missed it!
First off, yaaaay sunshine, another little boy for our team, congrats! Have you got any names yet? I kind of wished that we'd kept it secret from others, but are you not worried you'll accidentally let it slip?
Almost, fantastic news that you've got your house in time, I think it will really help with the feeling that you're a family now, if that makes sense? I can't believe you have only 6 weeks til your due date, it has just flown by! Can't wait to hear of his safe arrival. It's pants how little time you get to spend with baby over there though, I will have had a year off when I go back (although not all paid, and what is is a massive pay drop, but still, it's better than what you get)
I've seen that you are going back Presh, bet you will miss the extra time you had with Quinn as well as Zoe?
I saw on fb that you are back now Sonia, how are you finding it? I'm dreading going back, but not because I can't bare to be away from Seth, just because I'm that used to not going now, and in all honesty just can't be arsed! I will definitely be going back though, if only to save ready for baby number 2! I'm sure it'll be fine once I'm there though, be like I was never off. Looking forward to some adult conversation though, and I think my days there will make my time with Seth more precious.
I can't believe I have a 6 month old, how did that happen?!?! Well I know how it happened lol
but wow it's going so fast. Be planning his first birthday party before I know it o.o He is really starting to develop a lovely little personality now though. He is so cheeky, and just can't keep still! He is semi-mobile, can scoot himself around to get toys etc and rolls all over the place, but no actual crawling yet (don't think he's too far off though) He's really strong on his legs and loves being stood up holding on to us. If you hold his hands he can push himself up to standing. Fairly worried as David was walking at 8 months, I'm so not ready for Seth to take after his daddy and be walking in 2 months!!!!
Question for 2nd/3rd time mummies. What were naps like for you at 6 months? He was having 2 or 3 a day after around 2/3 hours of awake time, but now he is awake for 4 hours, has half an hour, then he wakes up and has a cuddle with me and goes down for another 1-1.5 hours. He's then awake for around 4 more hours before he goes to bed. Is this ok? Can't get him to nap before 12 he just gets mardy if I try.
Nighttime sleeping is pretty good. He used to do 8.30 to around 6.30, sometimes as late as 8. He'd have a feed then go back down with me til 9ish. Then he started waking a few times in the night and having to come in with us which lasted a few weeks. He's now brought his bedtime forward to between 6.30 - 7.30 at the latest, and has been waking at 5ish but going back to sleep either by himself or in with me. Bottle between 6.30-7.30 and then cuddles and sleep before we get up for the day at 8.30. I can't complain at that really can I?! Be perfect if he dropped that one early wake up though! Think its partly because he's ready for his own space now. He's getting too big for his crib and I think he wants to starfish in his big boy cot. Think he is waking himself up by banging into the sides of the crib when he's moving around in his sleep. Just need to get rid of the massive pile of ironing that currently rents out his cot, and psyche myself up to make the move!
Sorry for the EPIC post, I'll try to get on here more regularly so that they can be much shorter in future! Xxx
the pictures weren't great as baby was camera shy! We found out were having a lovely little boy
