July 2009 Moms

Cinds I actually haven't checked at Woolies yet (I buy cheap clothes haha), will go and have a look today, thanks!

The last time I went to the movies was when I was heavily pregnant..went to watch Marley and me and BAWLED my eyes out!!

Fairy I've never used a baby sleeping bag so can't give feedback sorry! MIL made a 'lappie' for Mignione with lots of ribbons on the side, and she goes to sleep while rubbing the ribbons between her fingers. She sleeps with that as well and is very attached to it. Hope you get the sleeping problems fixed with the help of the therapist!

Sumaya I have to give notice today at M's current creche. Her current creche is R1050 per month, the new one is R1540 per month and has a registration fee of R550. I just hope that M likes the new creche. She doesn't really like change. (just like her mom).

Deja that is so good of you and hubby deciding to be positive. We also trying to do that and at the moment hubby is so stressed at work yesterday he just felt like taking his bags and leaving.....I've never seen him so stressed I spoke to him for over an hour to calm him down as we need his salary too. Anyway enjoy your time off, sounds like it's going to be a fun filled day.

Marilu, have you given the notice at Mig's current creche, I know you nervous but we under estimate our babies and to your surprize Migs might just love it and take on very well and have less sick days tooo. Is it more expensive?

Cinds you right Woolies does sell but I find that only selected stores have the bigger baby grows

Fairy, can't help re: sleeping bag.But what is the next step?? Zia also needs a comfort at night, when he sleeps with me during the night he will get up and put his hand in my boobies, I think he just needs to feel or touch something. When he is sleeping in his got I put a blankie next to him, so when he wakes he just feels the blanky and goes back to sleep

Marilu doesn't woollies sell 12-18 month growers? not too sure

Deja enjoy your much need time off with your angel, sorry about the 2kgs but maybe it is like Marilu said Water rentention i'm sure u will lose it again man, dont stress.

Hi Fairy so will you be implementing a toy or blanket of some sort? what did the therepist advise u to do now that u have figured out the problem? Sorry we dont use the baby sleeping bag.

Marilu i can only imagine how stressed u must bet with the move and i really hope Migs loves her new school

Charls is Muizenberg ok?

Deja good to hear that you and hubby had a chat and that you are both trying hard to get you relationship back on track!!!
Why did you decide to take N for a haircut? Just curious My mom believes that if you cut a baby's hair very early then his/her hair will become nice and thick. Wonder wether it's only an old wives tale or not?
Die 2kg is net water retention!

Ek's BAIE gestres oor die skuif. Onthou jy nog hoe moeilik M aangepas het toe hul haar net van die een klas na die volgende een geskuif het? Maar toe was die onderwyser die groot probleem. Ek weet nie, ek hoop net dis die regte besluit.

Hahaha..have to laugh at your hubby only dressing N in a babygrow! M doesn't fit into a 6-12month babagrow anymore and I can't find 12-18m babygrows ANYWHERE!

Hi All

Hope you all doing well...Charlene hope you feel better soon and enjoy your movie on Friday. I have not been to the movies since a week before Jan-Botha was born!

Had the sleep therapist over last night and had a long discussion. We think the biggest problem is that Jan-Botha does note like a dummy and does not have a "sleeping partner" like a toy or a blanket. He uses the bottle to fall asleep.

Question : who uses a baby sleeping bag and what are your thoughts. What is a good brand to buy?

Sumaya I'm also loving the holidays. It only takes me 10-15minutes to get to work now while it normally takes me 30minutes or more!
Glad to hear that your FIL is doing good. Zia sounds so cute It's weird how the simplest things (not toys) keeps them busy!

Adele, ek hou nogsteeds meer van die creche waarin M nou is, maar net omdat die klaskamer huge is en omdat dit 'n taamlike nuwe gebou is so als LYK skoon en die klas het aircon. Die ander creche se klaskamer is baie kleiner, maar daar's minder kiddies in die klas, daar's spesiaal 'n plek waar hul buite kan speel met 'n sandput en als, maar dit het nie aircon nie. Dit was regtig 'n baie moeilik besluit want M het nou so goed aangepas by die creche wat sy nou is, en sy LOVE die nuwe onderwyser. Ek hoop net ek doen die regte ding!!!!!!!

Charlene, jip, found a new creche for Migs..only 9 babies in the class (including her). I have to give a month's notice at her current creche, so she's only moving over at the end of July unfortunately

Sorry to hear that B is not feeling too well I HATE this teething!! Hope you feel better soon too. Shame..poor Ange, not good if a children's movie gives nightmares!!!!
Enjoy the movie on Friday!!!
