Hi everyone we are back too but lordy it is cold and wet here
portugal was vv warm 24 deg and lovely sun hotel was fab too
had a bit of a week of it as ds got tonsilitis and ear infection but got some abs and that sorted it

Glad you enjoyed your hols andiem....we weren't as warm as portugal, at least not outdoors anyway.

LOL foxy, is that your way of saying I "talk" too much

How is DS1?....all healed up I hope?

thanks Bumper he was ok bit miserable and one night I had 2 hours where they were both up twice and dh slept through it
how is your feeding going?

ouch for your poor DS andiem. I spent two days in bed with a tummy bug, some kind of 48 hour viral thing as I had sore achey muscles, felt (but never was) sick and had "belgian belly". I was right as rain after a day in bed.

DH and DCs have gone out, washing on, big pot of Chilli simmering in the oven, and the root veggies are on for bulk DD food preparation

length no idea
Very powerful lungs
doesn't sleep enough
likes talking to his toys

forgot to add dd as paddys when see can not see us

hi trace . cross posted with you there!

It's good Chloe is starting to hold her head up etc, that must be a big weight off your mind. how is she otherwise? is the fitting under control? and are you any closer to an answer?

emily nearly 21 weeks
weight...about 15lbs I think (hasn't been weighed for a few weeks)
length....no idea
sleeps, when it blooming well suits her at the moment (gone from 12 hours a night to max of 6 at a stretch)
hair...still lots and new stuff growing in
teeth....bottom two broke through a few weeks ago, but haven't moved since
was going to hold off weaning, but she has started trying to steal food, so from baby rice two weeks ago, have progressed to pureed fruit and veg and she had a jar of something with chicken in on the ferry yesterday. Can't wait till I can feed her chips

DD Charlotte will be 20 weeks on Weds
no teeth
little hair
weight was 13lb 13.5 oz on Oct 9th. Has obviously increased since but she's not been weighed since.
length never measured
Sits pretty well with a bit of support
Can hold some toys, has just started turning the corners of books.
Not sleeping through but working on it.

hi dasey, yes shes trying now to hold up but its still a struggle for her it goes to right side, no they not under control yet, the nuero told us hes never sean anyone posture for 5 hours like she does, we was hoping he had answers, he was going to a semimar last week taking chloes videos of her sezures with him to ask other nureos if they sean anything like it, but he was ringing if he got an answer for us. but on a good note we got dla for her, at top level

trace, that's good on the dla, and I'm sorry you don't have an answer yet ad that Chloe is still fitting. I hope someone comes up with something soon on what's going on in her brain. sending you all big hugs. If you are up to meeting up at any time, just let me know

I hope I can reassure you on her neck. DH didn't hold his head up until past nine months, but soon caught up with his peers. He also had what sounds like terrible reflux and threw up violently till around thn as well.

Hello Trace...god to hear things are a little calmer for Chole and you all.

its great hearing about all babes!

it is trace...we talk all the time and get isolated snippets. It's nice to see it all together for a change!

What is happening to MN at the moment. I've just clicked on a few threads and almost all of them have ended up in right old slanging matches. Is it the full moon? or is the bitchiness just more noticeable after an enforced absence?

Oooh, bumper, I meant to ask earlier....how long did you manage to stay away?

off to spend last night with DH before he goes back to work....am secretly looking forward to some peace and quiet again, but don't tell him that

see y'all later

Night Daisy
