Hi ladies,

Both my babies are sick with throat infections. Trying to keep them both happy all day is exhausting. Dr. said that Indigo's issues are all normal newborn behavior and that she's perfect. He recommended probiotics so I expressed a bottle to give her the probiotics and she only had 25 mls in 30 mins!!! There was 100 mls left. That was so frustrating! But I think her throat is very sore. Poor poppet. Anyway, I need to get her into a routine, I think that will help.

Deja - Sion is adorable and getting so nice and fat!I had to laugh...Indigo was 56cm at birth! Wonder what she'll be at her 6 week check up! I am trying hard to get Indy into the Baby sense routine. She just won't sleep. No matter what I try. Thinking of getting her a sling. I remember it helped you a lot with N in the beginning. She is happy to sleep as long as I am next to her...but with a 2 year old I can't carry her all day. Oh and I weigh 63 now...4 left to lose to pre-pregnancy weight then another 4 to my goal weight. Seems impossible! Oh and you can ovulate and not have a period. The problem is that you ovulate before your period comes back. So, for example, my period came back with Colby at 6 months even though I was exclusively BF. That means that I ovulated before then and could have fallen pregnant at 5 months. What a nightmare that would have been! Have you been on Microval before?

Tanz - That's amazing your boy is sleeping so well! He is adorable! I love the pic of him sucking his finger...so cute!

Tanz, that is awesome! Wow! The wrapping works wonders. And they tend to fight it in the beginning but they really do like it. I am on my THIRD Majors for Minors Sleep CD. (Since Nienke.) Play it all the time.

Skitter, ek is te bang ek het vir drie maande lank my period. Wil ook nog 'n derde baba hê en ek vertrou nie die inspuiting nie. Ek moet seker maar net op Microval gaan...

Morning Ladies!!

My goodness did I have a good night!!

R was fussy the whole day yesterday, barely slept the whole day and cried a lot!! So I figured he might be overstimulated. So I wrapped in a swaddling blanket after his feed at 21h30 and played him the majors for minors sleep cd... He slept till 4h30 this morning!!! 7 hours!!!!

Christmas shopping today!

Have a great one!

Hi all

I am on my laptop at last. Keep reading the updates on my phone and its such a schlep posting from there.

I took Sion for his 6 weeks injections. Shame, he is so sore. His legs are really sore, I feel so sorry for him. I wrapped them TIGHTLY and then he's calm but if he can kick (when changing diaper) he CRIES so heartsore. He now weighs 5.4kg's. Big little man! He is also 57cm tall, was only 49cm at birth. So he GREW!


Chanz, basically I just don't keep him awake more than 45 minutes at a time. I just check for any signs of over-stimulation and then I take him to a dark room, wrap him tight, put on a calm CD and put him to bed. I did it with Nienke as well. Several things can overstimulate them, from the perfume someone has on, to sounds, to light. I can see Sion does not like hard, heavy music. (For instance MK type of music.) Even smelling smoke can overstimulate a baby. Just watch out for signs and then calm him, take him to a calm, "safe-feeling" place and give his senses a chance to get a break.
Not sure how you'll get Michael to sleep through, though. If they are still hungry at night or need that feed, then he'll wake up. But if you can put him down without him fussing and crying at night, then at least you can go right back to sleep. Otherwise, try cluster-feeding him from 5pm until 8pm. Wake him up at 10:30pm for a good feed and see how it goes? That's all I know, I did that with Nienke and she slept through but Sion's hungry at night.

Elrike, ek sou de bliksem in gewees het as iemand op my kind gePIE het! Ek sou sê gaan praat met die ouers.

Tanz, I'm suppose to be 54kg's and am only 1.65 tall. LOVE die foto's! Die vingertjie in die mond is adorable!

Hi there mommies

Elrike, sjoe, dis n uiterse moeilike situasie waarin jy sit, want se jy iets is jy verkeerd en doen jy nie iets nie lei jou kinders daaronder.....ek sou seker daarop aangedring het om te trek, maar dit los nie altyd die probleem op nie, sterkte! Hoop jul kry gou n oplossing vir die probleem

Chanz, wens ek kon jou ook raad gee, maar ongelukkig weet ek nie wat om te se nie. Ek weet net, as hy ophou moet hy dit vir homself doen en nie vir enigeiemand anders nie, anders gaan hy net aanhou skelm wees. Sterkte

Tanz, hy is so pragtig!Mal oor die vingertjie in die mond

Chanz, I agree with the solids issue, wish all moms would just wait til at least 4months. It is really not true that solids make babies sleep through at night. Adults dont even sleep through...why should small babies?

I had a really bad day today, wanted to vacuum, then the vacuum broke, tried sweeping then the broom broke. And the bank cards were blocked due to possible fraudulent activities and before they come we cant go to buy new vacuum. And hubby working so cant go even if we could...ugh but at least hearing Liam giggle made up for everything. Also made up for him pooping himself from head to toe (a really kak day,lol)

have a lovely evening everyone

Dankie dat jy dit vir my opgesit het Chanz...

Ek hoop jy kry gou closure met jou probleem! Het jy al vir hom presies verduidelik hoe dit jou laat voel? Klink vir my jyt regtig 'n groot issue daarmee... Klink vir my asof hy redelik genoeg gesondheids redes het om op te hou...
