Our first thread has almost finished so I thought we'd need a new one!

Lost and Apple - have you chatted to HV about it. Both Dd and Ds had reflux...Ds was also being sick for about 2 hours after every feed - washing galore!! He's now on baby gaviscon and its made such a difference.

Happy - have also joined online late yest, so still have to look through and figure how it all works, but intend on losing as much as I can the next 3 months before summer holidays.

So Ds slept ok - up from 4-5:30, back down till 7:30, but family staying with us have a 18month old - she woke up at 2:45am - so they've been up since then Shock ... Ds and Dd slept through her crying thank goodness, but I wasn't so lucky - guess I'm tuned in to hear a baby cry. They leave in an hour so Dh is going to take DD to play area so I can blitz this pigsty - l'm sure i'm wierd - actually looking forward to 2 hours by myself to clean Hmm

Louise ds1 is now 9! It may have been reflux but at the time i thought it was normal as i didn't know any different. Ivy has only done it q few times in 13 weeks and usually only when shes guzzled too much pig :)

I also really look forward to time to myself to clean and tidy it always makes me feel better.

Agree the fist chewing is developmental. Its more the drooling,pink cheeks and biting

Shock

My periods haven't come back yet, so I took a leftover test just to rule things out ... Positive!! I can't stop looking at it.

April fools!

Bunty!! Naughty!!

We've had 3 nights of 6+ hours here, is that ok for my boobs?! After the first night they were rock solid, but the last 2 nights they haven't been too bad.

Nancy is a fist biter too. And yesterday, she was sat in her chair and had grabbed one of her dangly toys and had its feet in her mouth.

We've made the transition to clothes now! I'm loving it, plus it's lovely putting her in pyjamas in the evening.

Also, I want to see all your babies!!

BuntyCollocks · 01/04/2013 14:00

Hee hee!

My little lady is on my profile.

AppleCrumples · 01/04/2013 14:43

Bunty i couldn't resist a look. She is so cute. Ivy is on my profile too :)

BuntyCollocks · 01/04/2013 14:44

Thank you! Ivy is gorgeous, too

CreepyCrawly · 01/04/2013 15:15

Ooh I didn't know you could put photos on here! I think I've managed to put Nancy up.

Aww a pair of cuties! Apples those cheeks! And Bunty I love her outfit. Beauties :)

birdies · 01/04/2013 15:30

Ah it's lovely seeing your babies, what a nice idea! All three of them are absolutely gorgeous.

I've just worked out how to put Xanthe's on too, I think.

CreepyCrawly · 01/04/2013 15:31

She's lovely birdies. I love her hat

AppleCrumples · 01/04/2013 15:32

Nancys so sweet and such a lot of hair. Ivy had loads but its thinned out and she has a big bald spot at the back!

AppleCrumples · 01/04/2013 15:34

AppleCrumples · 01/04/2013 15:39

Angielka · 01/04/2013 15:55

Ooh photos! How lovely... all four are gorgeous. Isn't this a lovely age for cute chubby cheeks and sweet little outfits?! It's so nice to put little bubba faces to names. I think Molly's up now too.

Pascha · 01/04/2013 16:08

Ok my turn. All the babies look gorgeous so far.

Pascha · 01/04/2013 16:10

Angie I can't see yours, I think you need to make your profile public.

BuntyCollocks · 01/04/2013 16:12

They're all adorable! Wee pets.

AppleCrumples · 01/04/2013 16:17

Pascha he looks like a happy little soul :)

Pascha · 01/04/2013 16:21

Smile The cuteness on this thread is ridiculously high today.

Angielka · 01/04/2013 16:29

Thanks for the tip Pascha... Blush should be sorted now!

lollipoppi · 01/04/2013 16:49

Ohhhhh I want to see all the gorgeous babies!! I'm on my phone though I don't think I can look, if I get chance later I will pop a picture up of Darcie too

Me and DP are (finally) decorating DD's room today!

CreepyCrawly · 01/04/2013 17:09

Aah everyone has such cuties! Pascha your DS1 is gorgeous too.

Apple Nancy's hair is ridiculous! She hasn't lost any and it's just grown and grown. It will not go down though, we've tried everything so now we're just embracing the bouffant!

Lora1982 · 01/04/2013 17:09

They look adorable!! I cant upload mine from a phone for some reason so yu'll all have to be on tenterhooks til i get on the laptop before you can see the offspring i produce with a tiny help from dp grin] going to meet my girls for a meal in a min so im trusting that dp will not break the child

AppleCrumples · 01/04/2013 18:17

OMG Ivy just exploded in her nappy, dp got her out of bouncer to change her then we noticed the poo dripping out of her trouser leg :( So while dp cleaned her up i had to clean both the floor and the bouncer. Never seen so much poo! The dcs thought it wad hilarious Hmm

She has been feeding ever since Grin
