Too much dinner? Does he still have a great appetite?

3 was straight to sleep before but he'd only had half an hour today as 2 kept on laughing at him. He's going to bed in a mo too, he's had no sleep. Joy. See you at 3am!!

Had R been a bit cranky today after yesterday? How is the kickboxing going?

Wink Senokot Babies. Overnight, predictable releif.... From sleep Grin

Poor kid has cried himself hoarse. Over the past couple of weeks its seems like he is crying most of the time. Doesn't seem like he's in pain or anything.

PurplePidjin · 07/09/2013 08:16

He eats his bodyweight and still bfs 4-6 times a day!

He was a nap dodging grump yesterday, finally had an hour 4-5 then wolfed his dinner. Rejected boob, finally slept at 7:30 after 10 minute cc intervals, over an hour of trying. Woke at 12:08, slept at 12:24, woke at 1:08, calpol at 1:30, slept 1:45-6:15!

Kickboxing is ace :o

ShockShock Wish my dude ate that much! It is good though he has a great appetite.

2 wake ups but if I add up the time spent awake with them its over 2 hours. Note to self - don't bother with sleeping bag. Thank fuck he didn't wake ds2 up again!

We both WILL get there on day. R did have a good last lot of sleep though.

Good, I can imagine its a great way to relieve stress. WinkWink

1 weetabix with pureed fruit for breakfast

1 pouch plus my mum's crusts plus a breadstick and a few organix crisps then a strawberry and a couple of raisins for lunch

1/3 of a tuna steak flaked, couple of florets of broccoli and 1/2 carrot pureed, 4 potato wedges then a yeo baby yoghurt for dinner.

My god Grin

Ready brek/weetabix with fruit puree

1/2 jar at lunch, sometimes its a bit more

Small bowl of whatevers on the go and sometimes a fromage frais thing.

Bedtime - I may puke the above all over myself and cot if you leave me. Wink

Still pukes on most finger food but Im still giving it to him so he'll get used to it.

4-6boobs a day?! Thats just greedy Grin how is he getting on with drinking by himself from a cup? Its not happening anytime soon here, total refuser.

PurplePidjin · 07/09/2013 12:12

Mostly capable but tends to like banging it on the tray so i still be help a lot Wink

If it weren't for the lack of tail I'd think I'd birthed a piglet Hmm

Ds2 was and still is a walking dustbin. He does not stop but he's skinny!

How is the new night combo holding up?

PurplePidjin · 08/09/2013 18:01

Night combo is great. Sleeping still shit.

NappyHappy · 08/09/2013 20:21

Ds is getting worse at going to bed. Cotzilla was right out in force earlier.

I'm glad at last you've found something that works. Just wish it was the shit sleep that could be fixed Sad

PurplePidjin · 08/09/2013 20:44

I suspect overtiredness and overstimulation. Bedtime tonight was 6:15 instead of 7 Hmm

Im currently sat downstairs with a certain baby chewing my pants Shock

How is dp getting on with work and that now?

Its chucking it down still.

PurplePidjin · 10/09/2013 09:11

He's doing ok, there was an argument (not involving him) and it's improved. I had 2 interviews yesterday Shock

OP posts:
NappyHappy · 10/09/2013 13:24

Good, ok is better than shite I suppose. Hopefully it'll improve soon.

2?! Thats brilliant! How long til you find out?

PurplePidjin · 10/09/2013 16:58

One was a nanny agency, one i really don't think I'll get nor doithink i want it as it's full time. Would mean difficult childcare, with dp who isn't really up to it - work is easier! A friend wants me to cover her kit days though, and possibly be her "nanny insurance" on a retainer in case her train is late etc (2 1/2 hour commute) which would be fab. How hard could 2 1yos be...

OP posts:
NappyHappy · 10/09/2013 19:13

And the one you don't want will be the one you get. Confused Always the way. There needs to be more (in an ideal world) onsite creches/free nurseries so it'd be easier.

The 2 1yr olds will amuse each other so it'll just be feeding and nappy changes that'll be fun!

Mine will be 1 on Monday. Shock

PurplePidjin · 10/09/2013 19:24

Yikes!!

OP posts:
NappyHappy · 10/09/2013 22:46

Yep. It really doesn't seem that long ago I was ringing Mum at 6.30am to come and look after the boys as it was time.

Ds2 called me Mummy properly before too. That and Whit-woo are today's new things. It kind of makes up for the chocolate mouse that's all over the sofa!

PurplePidjin · 11/09/2013 02:32

Bless. We get the occasional vrrm vrrm for cars now to add to mumum, dadad ta and ah! (cat)

NappyHappy · 11/09/2013 09:28

Awe, that's really cute Wink does he love the cat and try and cuddle it?

I've seen advertisements for RNW already, April is ages off!

rrreow · 11/09/2013 12:11

Wow 1 already!! I love it when they call you mummy (DS1 has stopped calling me 'money' Sad it was so funny!).

DS2 is 3 months and I'm about to get the 6-9mo clothes from the loft as he's growing out of his 3-6 ones! DS1 also needs new clothes as all he's got is short sleeve stuff as he seems to have grown out of all the long sleeve ones.

OH OH AND!!!! DS1 did his first poo on the toilet the other day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG PROUD MUMMY MOMENT!!!!!!!Grin

PurplePidjin · 11/09/2013 18:22

Not really any wake ups (well maybe one before I go to bed) now just the 4am alarm call.

Todays new words from ds2 - naughty, nose (and other body parts).
