October 07 babies!

Gah, tickers confuse me!! I have made several in the last few days to try and get Keziah's 12th week in sight... One said she was 12 weeks, and 4 days, and the other said she's 2 months, 3 weeks and 6 days so 12 weeks old tomorrow..WTF, she wasn't born until Wednesday the 24th of October so how can she be 12 weeks old on a Monday??? and Why are the dates so incredibly different when I make sure the birth date is correct?

Salifer, well done with Ella's sleeping! Any tips would be appreciated Are you doing a 10pm dreamfeed? I'm still getting up 3 hourly after midnight with Eva. Might try the 10pm feed again and see if it carries her through further.

I got Eva a cute denim hat with dinosaurs on it from TnT. It was the only one that came close to fitting her little head. Has anyone been using sunblock on their babies, or are you just avoiding the outdoors?

yeah that is a bummer you cant make it neeks, hope you're feeling better soon

so simsam, i guess it's just you, me and manz meeting for coffee? while we're on the topic, if it's absolutely hosing down did you both still want to tee up? it's possible it could turn nasty given today wasn't that great and we are in desperate need of rain which needs to come sometime....there's no undercover parking in titirangi and it's not crash hot for parking full stop so could mean we get a bit wet.

hey manz. yeah i was thinking lynmall as an alternative - how about starbucks?

woo hoo it works!

I'm hanging out for our next Oct mums get-together at someones house! Hope you all have a nice catchup tomorrow at a cafe. I'm getting my car serviced, so will have a quiet day at home.

SimSam, hadn't though about Mustela sunblock. I like their other products, so might give it a try. Even though they are expensive, I find they last for ages.

NIKKIB & KABE - I have been following the "CONTENTED BABY BOOK" along with another in my coffee group. Her little girl has been sleeping through the night (from 7pm to 7am) for about a month but is 0.5kg heaver than Ella. So decided to try skipping the 10:30pm dream feed and just letting her wake when she does. She sometimes stirs at 12am so I jump outta bed, pop in the dummy and she continues to sleep....sometimes will peep again but usually sleeps thru till 4am then I get up and BF...then she's back down sleeping till 7:30am.

I also use MUSTELA products (eg shampoo) and have never had any cradle cap.....<Touch Wood!>....they are expensive but certainly do last a long time.....

I hope you guys have fun tomorrow, definitely bummed I can't make it!!

i'm thinking lynmall as this weather won't be clearing in a hurry. if we haven't heard from manz in an hour i'll text her to confirm new arrangement ay?

yip, the inside starbucks next to bodyshop. look forward to meeting you then
