July 2015 - the very beginning, what's going on!!

[MissTwister]

Hi all

I couldn't see a July 2015 thread so thought I'd start one. My daughter was born on the 6th and the last two weeks have been fun and tiring - with not much sleep!

Anyone else around?

Hi Stinki - glad all is well with baby number 2, nerve wracking but bet your excited at the same time. Will be lovely them growing up so close in age.

DD is doing well slowly getting into weaning she still isnt sure on some days. Her sleep however is another story

Cant believe how quiet this thread has gone - i guess everyone is busy busy busy with their LO's.

We have a tooth! Is only just through, can't see it but can definitely feel it. We had a bad hour last nite, had already felt it before, if we can cut all teeth how this one has I will be happy! X

Congrats on the tooth Charlie these babies are definitely growing up!

We have a crawler! Having to buy fire guards and other baby proofing things tomorrow eek

Oh wow stinki that's great.
Franky's tooth is nicely through and its partner in crime is starting to poke through too.
No real interest in crawling but he does clap sometimes just when he wants sometimes when asked. X

Hi all! Was previously Numberthreecometome, but I named changed and now can't change back!

Little man is 7 months and 2 days, no idea how much he weighs as I haven't had him weighed since the week before I went back to work (when he was 9 weeks old)

He is now a high speed crawler, can pull up and stand up, and sit.
He cannot clap or speak yet, no real attempts.
Weaning is fine, he eats everything (usually just what we eat) and he eats lots.
Still has not slept for more than 4 hours at a time, in fact, we are lucky if he sleeps more than 2-3 without waking at night.
Hard when I have to get up for work at 5, but such is life.
He loves nursery and is doing great.

Congratulations Stinky, daunting but all good fun.

No more babies here, I've been told it's too risky, so I will be looking to be sterilised at some point soon. I was offered during my csection due to issues, but declined (wasn't really thinking straight!)

Hi everyone, DS is now 7 months and weighs 19lb. He's sitting confidently and this week has mastered crawling! He is into everything, doesn't like to stay still, he's going to be a right little monkey I'm guessing Sleep is still patchy, he usually wakes at least once, sometimes a dummy will resettle him, other times he'll have milk. The nights he sleeps through actually seem to be reducing He's eating well, 3 meals a day and loves most things. I tend to do lumpy purees and meals with baby pasta or potatoe. He also loves toast. I really need to do more finger food ... (the mess puts me off ). Hope you and all your little ones are doing well

If anyone wants to join us in the July Mumsnet facebook group, please message me x

Lala you are aware this is the same fb group that you left and then slagged off??

Yeah, I'd describe calling us catty and cliquey on your JS group as slagging us off.

I'm not sure how pointing that out and making sure you are aware that this is the same group is mean?

It might have been a good idea if your post above was 'hi, i used to be in the group as lalalaaaa and i'd like to rejoin'...then we'd all know where we stand, as the above message gives the impression you are a totally new member.

Dulcet's behaviour, which triggered you leaving has made me a bit suspicious of new members, especially this far down the line, hence I searched your name and saw your name change.

It was me who had the problem with Fatty as she was asking us to update spreadsheets as soon as we had our babies. Some of us were in no condition to go online and felt like we were being a bit harassed. There were some comments on a separate thread about the FB group being bitchy, and there were two particular people who were on the Facebook group not participating but clearly gathering comments and posting back on to Mumsnet. You'd have to excuse us if we are a little bit cautious about people knowing our real life names then clearly talking about us on Mumsnet. What was being said about Fatty was not slagging her off. It was in jest. Fatty always had the opportunity to join the FB group if she wanted and she chose not to. What you have done today is clearly try and get a route back in to the group under a new name without any mention of being in it before. I have no idea why you would want to join a group you clearly harbour these thoughts about (as you have described above its obvious you aren't over those feelings). We are a happy group, a supportive group and we have no internal frictions. We certainly don't wish to have any going forward. When you left the group it was on bad terms and you haven't made any attempt to make those bad terms good, so I really don't understand your intentions.

I think the previous posts being deleted at your request speaks volumes 👍🏻
