January 2013 - Baby/Mommy Club!

Hiya Ladies

Sjoe but its quiet here! Little ones keeping us busy hey!

Just a quick pop in to say "HI". Hope everyone is well and looking forward to Easter. My mum went back home to France yesterday Miss her terrribly already! Its been wonderful having her around!

She did however make her awesome pickle fish for Easter, so now the sauce must just seep into the fish and its ready for eating!!!

Morgan has started sleeping through at night YAY for a full night's sleep and feeling human again! She still feeds every 2-3 hours during the day but for the past week has been sleeping from 9 - 5/6 in the morning! She is growing really well too and is very strong - have her next vaccination on the 10th of April! She is really such a happy-go-lucky baby! Hardly fusses and cries, except when its time to eat - hehehe!

As for my first born - she is thriving at school and is potty trained - except for the night nappy. Because she is so active she drinks alot and still has quite a full in the morning... but we will get there! She really is a proud big Sussie!

Hope to hear from everyone soon! Keep well ladies!

Attached are some recent pics...

Hey Ladies....

Aww...I am soooo sorry for not showing my face here, I can't believe how much i
I've missed out on.

Is Morgan okay Anthea? It's not nice when your kids are sick!

I have also been struggling to cope with Jody especially at night, he have also been colicky so my nights was long and horrible. He would cry for hours on end and we could not get him to quiet down. Thank God for Buscopan!! It really helped alot. He much more calmer at night now so I'm getting in much more sleep.

I'm so inlove with everyone's pics...the babas are very cute

I am at work today, with Jody to do some stuff as my other colleague is also on maternity leave and had her baby on Monday So now I'm lending a hand with some stuff here...just for today tho!

Anyway....enjoy your day further!

Hi ladies

Thank so much Sma - she's so much better! #relief!

Have you tried the Similac Total Comfort formula?

@Chrisy - howz the colic going?

Good Morning Ladies,
Chrisy,
I am soo sorry to heat that Alizah has Colic. Anja only had night colic due to lactose intolerance and I spent many a night crying right with her. I am however glad to hear that she is growing so well!
Those pictures are too precious!!

SMA,
sorry to hear that Tamina has such a short feeding cycle. Anja feeds every 2 -3 hours during the day and then I give her last BIG feed at 24:00 and then she sleeps till 05:00/06:00 in the morning, so I am very happy with how it is all going.
Your photo's are also too Cute for words.

It is so nice to see all the photo's of how the little ones are growing!

Hope you all have a fabulous weekend!!!!!

Sma - you little ones are so cute!! And Tamina is growing very well hey!

@Chrisy - your pics are just as gorgeous! What makes you say that Alizah has colic? What are you doing and giving to help her with it?

She's so cute & your son is so handsome!

Hi Ladies

Anthea soo glad Morgan is okay, was so worried, sorry though about all the tests. Last year my son got sick and they had to take blood and stuff, and at the end of it all they couldn't find nothing, I was so sore for him, but thank God that they don't really remember all that pain.

Nice to see how all the babies are growing.

Tamina is slowly getting where I wish we were ... She's still eating quite a lot. I did research and changed her over to Lactogen as it's supposed to keep baby full longer, it worked for like the first 2 days, she actually slept 6 hours without wanting to feed, but now the gaps are shrinking again. Normally the first stretch is 5 hours and then 2.5 to 3 hours the second stretch. During the day she's very unpredictable, one day it's every 2 hours, another maybe 4 hours. But so long as her Dr is happy, I guess she just has a big appetite, growing quite fast also. I'm just not used to it cos I keep comparing with how my son was. But otherwise she's good, not a fussy baby, when she's full she's nicely independent and I can do whatever, only if she can just sleep longer at night!!! But ya, maybe it's the 6 weeks growth spurt.
My medical aid's clinic is forever out of vaccine, I tried Stork's Nest a Garden City but no answer cos at least they pay for the Netcare group. She's already 7 weeks today...
Eating time gotta run...

Oh ya, she's babbling now, cutest thing ever, we have nice "conversations" now ...

Latest pic of her and her big brother...
