Happy Christmas ever today!!
I didn't come on yesterday as was v busy finding DH's xmas present, dd1's b'day present etc etc etc....
We're getting excited here about xmas too. The dcs have been counting down big time. It's the 1st year ever, so it'll be an exciting day tomorrow.
C's better now and finally feeding again, both solid and milk. So she'll enjoy some xmas dinner tomorrow . She's become very very clingy though and I think she's going through one of those developmental growth spurts again, like mentioned in the (?) wonder weeks book. From 32 weeks in can start and she's 32 weeks now I've calculated. She woke at 9 o'clock last night and only settled when in physical contact with me. I just could not put her down. I hope it passes soon, because I'm shattered after having a babie thrashing around in bed all night. After the festive period I'm hoping do do some sleep training, because I'd like her to sleep through once I'm back at work so there are no problems when I need to start working nights IYKWIM.
Like fi I've also just collected our bird and sausages from the butcher's (next door!) today. We're having pheasant as it's just the 5 of us and neither of us really like turkey all that much .
saus I was just thinking about you the other day too. I just want to say as well that you should try not to stress about the weaning. It's exactly the reason I went for BLW this time around, because with ds and dd1 I felt just like you're doing now. With dc3 I've decided to take it a bit more easy. And re the drinking from a cup, it took my 1st 2 dcs 2 months to crack that one and neither of them could do it before 8 mo! The only way to teach babies to drink from the cup is to just give them the cup to play with and in time they'll learn what to do with it. I really recognise what you're feeling, but take heart. My eldest 2 know perfectly well how to drink from a cup now, so it'll all work out in the end . Also sending you some non mn-y hugs for your pelvis/hip. Hope the PND stays at bay a bit over the xmas period. But with everything that's been going on for you I can imagine it must all be a bit hard.
crimbo C is feeling flattered that she's been talked about up there in faraway York Her hair at the back is past shoulder length, lol. Her hair at the front is nose length, so she's always got a clip in it . Sounds like you had a lovely meet up. It must be nice to be back (and warm and bathed).
jael Yay for the presents arriving!
llare Yay for the order, boo for the timing. But in a way it's a bit like a nice xmas present for the business, isn't it?
Errmm I'm pretty sure I've forgotten loads of people, so just in case I hope all travellers have arrived safely, ill babies (and mums) are better and bad sleepes are miraculously sleeping through.
