great sleep klou!! violet was sick again at midnight she was coughing alot and i heard her being sick so rushed to her and she'd even got it in her hair bless her! she was happy tho, not poorley in herslef, so i think it was just the coughing that brought it on, gave her cough stuff and changed her and sheets and back to sleep till 7.30. i cant get no cough stuff for chesty coughs tho. only dry tickly coughs. they dont do the other for under a year oldSad

shes gone to nursery perfectly happy

Hey!

Been to the docs with Joshie and they checked him over and he's ok. They have given me some saline drops to sort out his snotty nose and said we can carry on with the calpol and nurofen if he needs it.

I feel like crap, he has passed his lovely cold into me and all I can take is paracetamol! Docs have given me steroid cream for my hands too as it appears I have eczema. Need to make sure I keep it away from Joshie.

Woohoo fab sleep klou. Bet you feel great.

Poor violet being covered in sick liz. I didn't know you could give couch stuff to babies. What age is your from? And what is it?

Right, I'll put it again!
Glad you got something for Joshua iwish hope he feels better soon, and you!

Liz violet sounds a proper little tough cookie, not letting the sick bother her, hope she feels better too.

Well, think teething had reared its ugly head again! Euan had been moany all dat, refusing his bottles, so he's had half a yoghurt. Bonjela and teetha out too!

Wonder why MN deleted that klou??!! I hope we get better soon too. I've used half a box of tissues and a whole toilet roll blowing my nose up to now!!
Poor Euan. I can't imagine how painful it must be when their teeth are coming through. Bet its awful. Did he have his roast dinner for his lunch today?

KLou111 · 06/02/2012 19:12

I think its cos I said he sucks his gums .....whispers....(like a person not white) that is NOT being racist!!

KLou111 · 06/02/2012 19:18

Just in case that gets deleted too, I'll write a separate post :)
He had his roast for dinner. Although after I wizzed it up it looked slightly different! Loved it though!
He had leek and potato soup for tea, all went down ok, and on the last spoon he almost gagged and the bloody lot came up!! Gave him a bowl of beans in the end as nothing else defrosted! Anyway, got him in his room at 6.25, had a SIP of milk then started crying!! I held him to me and gave him a cuddle and he almost fell asleep!!! I'm going in the docs weds to get him weighed and I'm going to speak to the hv, as surely its unusual how much he sleeps! He's only had 12oz milk today too which I'm concerned about :(

KLou111 · 07/02/2012 08:12

Lol Liz!
Well they haven't deleted that!!

Anyways, Euan was in our bed at 7.20am Hmm I used to get 'told off' for that lol!
Rob got up at 7 to put his dummy in (Euans lol) then he started singing at 7.20 so Rob said can he cone to bed with a big cheesy grin. So he did.......then Bella arrived......then Bali!!! Bloody like a mad house in our room this morning!
He's took his bottle this morning, so not sure what's going on!

OP posts:
KLou111 · 07/02/2012 14:37

2nd bottle drank, 16oz so far inc his cereal, happy mummy :)

How are you both feeling iwish x

Iwish · 07/02/2012 17:42

Hey klou still feeling pretty crap tbh but I'm sure in a few days it'll go away and I'll get some sleep lol.
Nick likes Joshua in our bed, he likes to wake up to him all snuggled up sleeping. He was in with us from 5:30 this morning as he wouldn't settle, coughing, coking and crying :(. Slept till 8:30 then.
Glad Euan has had more milk today, is he due to have a bit more today?

Thanks liz might need to invest in some. How is violet?

madkatz melly and gruff. Hellooooooo!!!

KLou111 · 07/02/2012 18:14

Hope it doesn't go on too much longer iwish

I've just given Euan another 6oz BEFORE his bath so he's not tired and he just took the lot, so will give him 2 more after his bath, which he prob won't take cos he may be tired. He's meant to have around 21ish of this follow on milk that I changed him to today (not sure if he prefers it hence he's drinking) so he's had more than his quota today!!

lizandlulu · 07/02/2012 18:56

me feeling poorly nowSad Sad Sad feel sick, cold and cant get warm and had headache all afternon. early night for me once lulu is in bed.

violet still has cough and was sick again in bed at 2am,am going to ring docs tomorrow as shes now gone off her food. got abit of milky rusk into her at 5, but not a deal. shes still not too happy but not like shes poorly in herself iykwim

lizandlulu · 07/02/2012 18:56

ment to ask you klou did you get on with those reusable nappies?

Iwish · 07/02/2012 19:00

I hope not too klou. He is so tired that he's having his feed and will be in bed in 10 mins. He doesn't usually go to bed till around 7:30.
Have you tasted both the milks? The follow on milk might just taste a bit nicer. What make of milk do you use? Just wondering what I should use if I decided to ff when weaning.

Having my hair cut tomorrow. Can't wait! I feel so much more human with nice hair lol. Grin

Iwish · 07/02/2012 19:03

Sorry liz cross post. Sorry you feel ill, it's horrible isnt it. Get to bed as early as you can.
Hope you can get in the docs too

KLou111 · 07/02/2012 20:09

Aw everyone's feeling like shite :( hope it doesn't last too king for you all x x x

Reusable nappies were great Liz but Euan kept getting an irritation on his leg. He's got it a tiny bit still but nowhere as bad. I think the wee was staying on it cos the nappies sit wider than disposable. It's funny cos I was going to ask which ones you all use.
I used huggies at first and they bloody STANK!! Been using aldi ones for 4 weeks and they are bloody fab!!! And cheap!!

I use cow and gate iwish tastes the same to me :)
As predicted he didn't want the 2oz so we had a story instead, and in bed for 6.35 :)

OP posts:
lizandlulu · 07/02/2012 20:23

i use asdas own mostly, i dont like pampers, they used to leak with lulu so never used them since. and huggies were fine, but only the same as asda and cheaper.

OMG klou i had totally forgot about aldi nappies!! i used to go specially for lulus from there, and totally forgot about htem!! will have to make a trip in the next few days!1 thanks!!

going to bed in a min, honest

KLou111 · 08/02/2012 11:13

No prob Liz they're great :)

Well just had Euan weighed, is 19lb 12.5oz, just under 91st centile. And 71.5cm long!! Just under 98th!! Going to be a big boy she said, but he's not fat or overweight!
I can hear again too, just had my ears syringed, looooovely!!

OP posts:
Iwish · 08/02/2012 13:44

We use Asdas little angels klou They are fab. They are bigger than huggies and pampers so go a little further up his back so contain explosive poop better lol.
What time was Euan up this morning after going bed earlier? And wow at his weight!

Do you feel any better liz?

Just had my hair cut and feel so much better! Still feel Ill tho unfortunatly. And Joshie is still ill so was in our bed from 12:30! He was up at 5:00 for a feed which we comfortably did laying down so I could sleep while feeding but then he did a big crap and had to be changed. Nick changed him and talked to him and made noise so Joshie thought it was morning time!!! Not impressed. Took me till 7am to get him to sleep then we got up at 8:45.

KLou111 · 08/02/2012 17:41

Ooo bet you feel all pampered now iwish :) Not sure whether to have mine done or grow it again.
I bet you weren't happy with nick lol. Rob did that a couple of months ago when he gave me the night off, and he turned the main light on too just to totally wake him lol!

We haven't got an Asda, nearest is 25 mins away, but we saw a delivery lorry the other day so they may have started delivering here (I checked at Xmas but they weren't then).

Euan in our bed again at 7.30. Will just put him to bed normal time tbh, I was only putting him earlier cos of him not drinking his bottle, but he's still not anyway so if I'm giving it him before his bath, he may aswell just go at 6.45-7.

OP posts:
Iwish · 08/02/2012 18:48

No was definitly not pleased with him!! Lol.

My hair is quite long, I only have a trim, too scared to have lots chopped off lol.

When Euan comes into your bed does he go back to sleep?

Joshua just had a bath and now he's having a bit of free bum time, he loves getting his bum out lol.
Nick not been to work either because he had mine and Joshua's cold but gues what, he's got man flu and hasn't even got dressed!!
