July 2009 Moms

Vision, that's all that I can think of that's helping her to sleep The only other things I changed is that I keep her room completely dark now (not even the night light), I don't use that Sleepsense CD anymore, and I've put a cushion in her cot which she holds while she sleep, or she lies untop of it..hiehie

Sorry to hear that R isn't sleeping well Shame, I hope she feels better soon!!

Talking about exercises for crawling..One of my friend's baby didn't want to roll over or crawl, she was scared of ANY movement, they couldn't even throw her up into the air when playing..so they took her to a 'arbeidsterapeut' and she said the easiest and most fun way to make a baby used to movement, is to let her lay on a towel on a bed, and then to roll her over by lifting the towel and letting her roll to the other side, and then vice verca. We did that with Mignione as soon as started to sit up by herself. And by now it's more of a game than an exercise!

Mignione is refusing to eat pureed food I tried last night again and she keeps her lips tightly closed so that I can't even get the spoon in, and if I catch her with an open mouth she spits all the food out. Tried giving her pasta but she just throws everything on the floor So she's not eating with me anymore

Marilu you beat me today Glad M slept so much better, maybe that sister lillian stuff is starting to work, I must get some for Bekah!

Good Morning Ladies

How are all of the babies

Bekah was up all the time last night - dont know what is wrong, maybe teething or a sore tummy from all the meds?

Bekahs teacher told me she is scared of the crawling exercises that they do she showed me what she should be doing and bekah just hangs on for dear life - oh my stubborn child. She moves around on her bum.

I gave her the spagetti bolognaise and she loved it. She didnt eat much of it but at least some got into her mouth!

Cinds and Sumayad - how are J and Z feeling?

Marilu how is little M doing - how was last night.

Deja and Marijke I was also thinking that we need some other mommies cause now it is just us Not that "us" is bad

My sisters baby is like 3 weeks old and she sleep for 6 hours straight at night

Morning everyone!!

Guess what?? Mignione only woke up ONCE last night!! She went to sleep at 7, woke up at 12 and had some water and went back to sleep again until 5:40 this morning! Don't know wether it's the Sister Lilian Homeopathic stuff that's working or what, but it must just keep on working!

The bad news is that she's got a cough A wet, slime kinda cough. What did Skitter suggest we use? Cause I want to get it ASAP before the cough gets worse. Cinds and Sumaya, what are you using for the cough and can I get it without a subscription?

Jana, ek het gesien daai Mommalicious website is so besig. Ek wens ook ons kon ander mamma's en swanger vrouens ook lok?? Wanneer eindig daai 'eating-comp'? Miskien is dit tyd vir 'n nuwe een?

About the discipline..I've started telling M no, but she just laughs at me It's really difficult to create a place where they can do anything without we having to tell them no. For instance..I try to keep her away from the oven (even though it's off) so that she knows she aren't allowed to touch it cause it gets hot. So I say 'no' and then show her the toys, BUT as we all though they REALLY want to do the stuff they're not allowed to

Hello Patricia!!!! Why are you so quiet?? Miss you here!!

our paed and clinic sister told us that with the outbreak we have to have it at 9 months!

Evening mommies

Jana, Mommaliscious mammas has been up and running for a long time, so give it time.

Just want to say bye for the week, we are leaving for Abu Dhabi early tomorrow morning and then after that we are going to AL Ain....we will probably come back on Friday.

So have a lovely week and kisses to all the little ones!
