December 2012: the little monsters continue to surprise us.

[MaMaPo]

I for one have a very surprising baby.

willyou it sounds as though if you bare to wait a little bit it could all work out. What sort of work do you do?

Lovely honey - enjoy his loveliness

hales aw bless her.

spotty deep breath, do it, sigh of relief!

It's a bit too far away for that yet Hales, I'd only be able to start in march! Just need to hope there are still jobs available then.

I will wait it out WL, my friend who I share an office with is getting shit on from a great height at the minute (they downgraded our maternity and sick pay packages in response to her multiple miscarriages ) so she's quitting and she keeps telling me how awful it is which makes me panic!

Glad everything's okay FoD

Glad everything was ok with the little mister FoD.

FX it all sorts itself out Willyou.

What a cute term fod
That is awful willyou but don't forget her experience is/will be different from yours. Things are rarely as bad as we fear, try to remain neutral! It's hard I know.

Crazy morning. Dd home from nursery with slapped cheek pretty sure ds has it (if you remember I said he had a temp then cough) same as dd he's a few days behind so waiting for the rash.

Handing in notice went fine my boss said 'good for you, not good for me but good for you'

I nearly hit a buzzard or something on the way home they're massive up close.

And I've got a job interview.

FoD glad all is ok.

WillYou at least you know it should all work out. Three months will go quickly.

Has anyone seen those dolls in ikea they have a chinese one and apparently a few others? Well my neighbour brought H the chinese one 2 weeks ago and its gone everywhere with her since, she loves it. Well they've brought her another one today shes over the moon i'll put a pic on fb in a minute but i'll give you an advanced warning i think their scary.

I love all ikea toys hales!

Ds just had a massive screaming session just as I started to feed him and there was blood in his mouth and on my nipple. Quite sure it wasn't me but now he's finally calmed down we can't see anything in his mouth

Baby lazza has been throwing herself about like a loon today! So desperate to get moving. She's shuffling about & loves being up on her feet trying to take little steps

She was up at 5 and has had 3 40min naps so who knows what tonight will bring! Have tried the past couple of nights not to feed at every wake. Ok when DH here but he leaves again tomorrow.

spotty hope your ds ok & feeding nicely now, and that he & DD are feeling better soon.

R has all four front teeth cutting. I can see the lines on his gums.

He's now night weaned but waking for teething gel and cuddles

Hello all, please can I join in? I was initially on the antenatal thread but found it hard to keep up! My ds was born on December 7th although he was due in November, I also have a dd just turned 4. He has recently started sleeping through (dd is a different story ) and we have 4 teeth but no movement just yet. He is such a happy baby I have really enjoyed having him although it can be hard sometimes with two!

I have lurked occasionally and found this thread an enormous help, especially in the early days when up many times at night, so thank you and I hope you don't mind me joining in this late

Welcome aboard jack - I only got dd1 to sleep through the night by bribing her with chocolate in the morning if she'd stayed in her own bed all night. I guess she was about 3.5.

spotty well done! In the resignation and the interview - that's fab.
Could ds have caught his tongue or gum on a sharp bit of tooth? That must have been scary.
Slap cheek is usually minor but stay away from anyone in the early stages of pg.

T has been bullying me today - while I blew a raspberry on her freshly bathed belly she grabbed my hair and kicked me in the face! I also caught her just about to put a £2 coin in her mouth! It must have been in one of dd1s purses in the toy box. She's such a monkey I really can't take my eye off her.

Welcome jack :)

Thanks WL, I'm pretty sure we haven't been near anyone pregnant that I know of. Both DC still seem fine you wouldn't know there was anything wrong with them, I wouldn't if DD's nursery hadn't sent her home!

DS hasn't got any teeth so definitely not that

Thanks for the welcome ladies, sorry to hear ds has slapped cheek spotty, my dd had this and I initially thought it was sunburn

We have tried all sorts WL bribery included, she is a nightmare! I'm hoping school will sort it out come September.

Ds was left alone for two minutes today and managed to get hold of dd's sweets. Found him sucking furiously on a strawberry lace!

Oh Spotty i missed the slap cheek, i hope it goes soon for them both.

Welcome Jack my DD was born on the 7th also but was due in November of the sleeping through.

Pidj what made you night wean now? H can go between 6-8 hours between feeds of a night but wakes up in between and usually ends up in my bed

Was also meant to say good save on the £2 coin WL its weird how they have to taste absolutely everything at the moment. H is also abit of a bully recently and if i or DP have the audacity to shout owww she cries

We have a tooth!

It's only the very tip but I felt it when we were in the dentist's waiting room. Hopefully more aren't far behind.

Hales not just at the moment. If I had a pound for every time I have to tell 3yr old DD I'll confiscate whatever's in her mouth, I wouldn't have had to go back to work!

Beasty yay to the tooth and what a great place to find it haha. And oops i thought it was a phase they were going through must remember to hide all little objects

My big 2 were pretty good about not putting stuff in their mouths when they got a little older, although at 6 dd1 now is almost always sucking on a necklace or chewing a collar. Drives me potty.

Oh dear jack fx for school then!

Weird then spotty

hales just that he's eating loads during the day and barely sucking at night, just a minute or two to get back to sleep.

Of course i had to go and time it for when he's cutting all four front teeth

Barbeasty dd also puts everything in her mouth still it drives me mad! Yay on the tooth!

Ds has been awake for over 45 minutes but I've not got him up its too early! He's just laying in his cot sucking his thumb/having a wriggle.

Just found a smear of blood on ds's eyebrow maybe it is my boob?!

Is it fresh blood spotty? Are your boobs painful? Sorry I don't have any idea what it could be!

Yes fresh wiped straight off. Not sore and no blood comes out when I hand express a bit. It's very odd.
