Hello All! All well here. Isla had her first train trip this week.... down to Devon for OH's brother's wedding! Went well and she was ever so good, though a bit unsettled yesterday (first full day back). She had an amazing night though. Slept 9-12, and 1.30-5. Hoping she will do 6-9 too.... we'll see!

Hope everyone who isn't on fb is ok as it's gone quiet on here! I wonder how Blessed is?

Vikkijayne2507 · 07/06/2014 21:19

indeed I hope all are well

LightTripper · 16/06/2014 22:21

Yes, would be lovely to hear from Blessed and the other non FB ladies! All is well here. 6 week check tomorrow... Eek!

Hi all Smile

I haven't been on here in a while! Shame it has gone quiet on here as I don't use FB.

Wow, where have the last 3 months gone? Emilia is 10 weeks and doing well! She is sleeping 6-7hrs a night now but is an early riser.

Looking back at my pregnancy photos and my birth notes and it all seems very surreal. I still can't believe I actually have birth to her?!

How is everyone doing? x

Vikkijayne2507 · 20/06/2014 20:17

hi pretty I sometimes forget but always come bk here eventually. James is 13 weeks Monday and at 11 weeks became very interactive smiling loads even had our first laugh. He's not going to bed until 1am but last night he did til 5.30 and slept tossing and turning til 9am after I brought him in my bed at 7am hope it repeats tonight

Cannotbelieveit · 23/06/2014 20:13

It does feel surreal doesn't it!! ESP when I watch one born every minute!

Vikkijayne2507 · 24/06/2014 01:21

gahh keep falling off thread. Jamie decided sleep was for pussies and was awake from 5pm- 11.30 pm finally asleep but there's a festival and we're staying up im going to seriously regret this
3 months exactly

LightTripper · 25/06/2014 11:15

Isla and I are going to her first cinema trip soon... going to see 22 Jump Street, which I'm not sure will give her much bragging rights when she's older, but I'm hoping will be manageable with my current attention span Wink

Trinpy · 27/06/2014 18:14

is that one of those baby friendly screenings light?

I also can't believe I ever gave birth to this huge baby! It feels like a lifetime ago that I was pregnant, but it was less than 3 months ago.

I can't believe I'm asking this but - is anyone else broody for another or am I the only crazy one? Maybe not right now though Grin .

LightTripper · 28/06/2014 18:40

Yes, a parent and baby one! They turn the lights up and the sound down (though it was still loud). Coffee and cake included in the price too, and it was one of those posh cinemas with sofas at the back, so it was all quite luxurious!

Not broody yet. Would like to give Isla a sibling, but am getting on a bit and also not sure if I can face another pregnancy... Sad

Vikkijayne2507 · 29/06/2014 22:31

I plan on a second one but not until at least August next year after my best friends wedding so my parents look after ds in the evening and next day so I can drink and not be pregnant.

ds is now sleeping a steady 5 hrs even though his timings vary a lot.

im loving all the smiles and trying to laugh. He gets very easily stimulated and always needs to sleep after 2 hrs of awake time or he gets very upset.
14 weeks tomorrow or basically 3 months

prettyinpink90 · 01/07/2014 12:35

light your parent and baby cinema screening sounds fab and lots of fun! Is it at a small local cinema or a big named cinema (Vue/Odeon/IMAX)?

Definitely not feeling broody just yet. We are planning a sibling for Emilia but not until she is at least three.

Emilia is 12 weeks and is sleeping through pretty much every night. Thinking of putting her in her own room at 4 months... with me camping out with her for a while.

We have her second set of vaccinations in an hour Sad it's always exciting to get her weighed though and find out how much she's gained.

Feel like I'm really missing out on all the fun by not being on the Facebook group but I just refuse to use it!

LightTripper · 01/07/2014 20:00

Hi pretty, it's an independent (actually a small chain). I'm v lucky as I'm in London and there are 4 or 5 small cinemas in walking or easy bus distance that do baby screenings, so I am going to try to go a bit while I'm off [wi

LightTripper · 01/07/2014 20:02

Isla had her first jabs today. She's definitely suffering a bit, though we did have some smiles/playing this afternoon so not too bad so far.

MoominKoalaAndMiniMoom · 03/07/2014 00:31

Aww Light the jabs are horrible aren't they? Callie's got her second round on the 22nd July (at 14 weeks... hmph).

Cannotbelieveit · 12/07/2014 22:30

Hi everyone. Ryder is now 10 weeks old, time is flying! He has such a lovely little personality already. He's getting more efficient with feeding so it's more like 2-3 hours a day now and only 6-8 feeds. Sleeping has been pretty consistent for the last 2 weeks. Minimum first stretch is 5 hours but it's usually 7-8 as standard but he's also done a couple 9 hours!! Bedtime is currently 10pm.

Vikkijayne2507 · 13/07/2014 23:07

had trip to the beach today it didn't go very well due to wind. he got super upset calmed him down with boob before he got upset again boob helped but had to leave. If it hadn't been so windy it would have been ok. going to leave it a month or so. We're in Portugal so just go to not windy beach next time
16 weeks tomorrow or 3 almost 4 months

prettyinpink90 · 17/07/2014 21:36

Hi cannot and vikki great to hear from you both! How is everyone else doing?

Emilia is 15 weeks tomorrow... almost 4 months Shock
We'll be weening our babies soon! Where is the time going...?

Vikkijayne2507 · 24/07/2014 15:20

4 months today and my birthday tomorrow. He has 2 teeth coming through you can actually see them. He's learnt to roll front to back and 4 nights in a row we've had 2 Ã?6 and 2 Ã?8 hours of sleeping. He still refuses to sleep before midnight and we usually have to do a 20 mins walk around neighbourhood but it's good for me

LightTripper · 24/07/2014 23:30

Happy Birthday Vikki!

MoominKoalaAndMiniMoom · 24/07/2014 23:34

I can't believe there's an April 2015 antenatal thread Shock

Vikkijayne2507 · 11/08/2014 22:05

I was thinking about !April 2015 as I found out I was pregnant for sure 1st of August. time flies

Cannotbelieveit · 13/08/2014 12:17

So quiet on here now!!
