Cheery I feed Monty-Beau a 4oz bottle at around 10pm. For the past two nights it has meant a 4 hour sleep for him. I didn't benefit from it last night as T wasn't well but I have tonight.
Maurice is so cute. Ms cheeks have filled out too.
Primary my older boys are 11 & 10. Ds1 has autism so he can't help but ds2 is fab. He took T downstairs for me when he woke so that I could get some more sleep.
Cookies yes I have a sling a connecta. Might try it today I just need to figure it out.
Dats hope the piles have eased. I've always found Sudocrem to really help with mine.
Hope you find a name you love for your boy soon. I'm not sure I love Monty-Beaus name. It was so difficult this time as Teddy is my fave name.
Bluebell I wish I could be wide awake for a feed. Instead I struggle not to drift off.
MrsRolly you got it spot on. DH definitely reverts back to an 18 year old. Selfish git.
M isn't keen on the Moses basket either. In the day he much prefers the sleepyhead.
Rafferty is gorgeous.
Primary I need breast pads all the time too. I didn't even breast feed last time and needed breast pads for about 5 months as my milk took ages to dry up completely. I use the Lansinoh ones as they are softer than most others.
Sophie hi. You can tell how warm
baby is by feeling their chest just under the neck. Never go by hands or feet as they aren't a true indicator. In this heat M has been wearing a vest and nappy. Sometimes if he feels particularly hot during the day then just a nappy. I have never put socks or a hat on mine when the sun is out. Be careful with hats as babies lose heat through their heads so if you pop a hat on in this heat they would over heat. You certainly don't need blankets at the moment. At night we have a fan in in our room and Ms legs were a little shaky with the breeze so I put a muslin over him in the Moses basket.
The thicker blankets will be needed during the winter. We often swaddle in the winter using a cellular blanket but those baby sleeping bags are great too. Especially if you have a baby that kicks off blankets.
Belager Hi. Oh your dd is so cute and teeny. How much did she weigh?
Indians all advice online and here is to introduce formula after 6 weeks. However, I've been using it for a week and no supply issues so far. M has one bottle at 10pm and one at 7am.
M didn't poop for nearly 48 hours. Then had a pooping marathon. I had to change him about 4 times in the space of 45 minutes.
Thank you for all the supportive messages on Saturday. Well DH is still pissing me off. He came back and let me have a few hours sleep. Then at 8pm he went to bed. I didn't get to bed until 11.30pm. I went to check on T and he had been sick in his bed. DH hadn't heard it over the monitor or been in to check him. I've told him to sleep downstairs in future on the sofa bed. He's so flippin annoying.
