Marking place. We're very chatty I doubt this will be the last of 2012

Morning check in!

has anyone else noticed their little one might prefer to sleep on their tummy? I think L might. Last night she slept on top of me with her head on my shoulder from 10.30pm to 2.30am! She would have probably slept longer if my arm hadn't started aching! Think it helps with her wind too... Going to get gripe water today as she'll be 4 weeks tomorrow!

tinkerbell Both of mine prefer to sleep on their tummies, which is why I think that they won't sleep if I try to put them down and will only sleep on my chest. So that's how we sleep everynight :s

Catbag · 13/12/2012 08:53

And in the day too. No napping in moses baskets/ swinging chairs/ cots or car seats here :(

I have found that putting my LO on a muslin in his basket (& did it with DD too) avoids vom going through the sheet every time, although doesn't always work.

However, yesterday I found that if I rubbed the muslin against my (bare) upper chest and warmed it slightly (& I assume added my 'smell') DS went down in his basket more easily, without the grunting & groaning & waking up.

Just a thought...

Someone slap me. I am not feeding my baby poison by giving him formula, he will not die.
Even thinking about starting to bf will break me. Expressing was stopped because my supply was low and the stress was getting to me. He's sometimes sleeping through.

I will be doing it for me, not him. That is wrong. I am not a failure even though I feel like the worst mum in the world.

Move on horsey, move on.....
