I finsh work on oct 22nd, go to aus with my mother-in-law on the 5th, the back to NZ on the 16th. I'm excited to be going back but sad to be leaving too. My hubby's family have just offered us their house. they used to live just out of gisborne and still have the house that they rent out. they have offered to virtually give it to us...so we can live rent free/mortgage freee. i'm pretty happy. it does mean we'll live with them when they retire but we've always gotten on so well, it should be okay!!!

No, that's fine Aimme, lol. I stay home with the girls, Paris usually still goes to daycare at least 3 mornings a week during my study leave... simply because since we have no yard, she goes stir crazy if she doesn't have some outlet for all her energy... at least going to daycare for a couple of hours she comes home, has a nap and is pretty alright.... last time she was sick and had to stay home and inside for a week... she was a complete terror.. had me in tears a few times out of sheer frustration.

Yep lizzle, i feel the same way. I am dreading my placement... sooo much, i mean it will be great working in maternity, how kool is that?! but Paris will still go to daycare at 8 in the morning so i can sleep while ayja sleeps. and i won't be home at night so i won't really see her, i'll get home when she's in bed and she'll leave in the morning after only seeing me for an hour at most. It's gonna be so heart wrenching... for 2 weeks. my poor girls.

had a chat with daycare today and it was all good again so here's hoping it stick this time.   now just have to try bottle over the weekend for when i'm on placement sincei have to drop her off at daycare at 1, and mike will bring her up for me to feed on my dinner break at 6.30pm, she'll need maybe 1 - 2 feeds by bottle in bewtween those times... the logistics are nuts!]]> Thu, 15 Sep 2005 20:59:10 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=15242&title=prams-where-to-start#15242 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : When are u shifting Liz?

I leave for work at 8 and get home at 7, he goes to bed at 7:30 and usually gets up around the same time. i barely see see him during the week. I hate it.

Just reading back on the last page, i saw your post about weight etc Ana. i wouldn't worry too much about it, it should settle down. Ayja was a teeny weeny thing, and she was really greedy too. she never lost any weight. in her first week she gained 7 oz, then 6oz the week after, then a whole pound the week after that, and 13 oz the week after that! then it all just settled down and she didn't gain much at all for a few weeks, and we got worried. lolol, now it's back to being steady gains.    

Be careful with the dummy as they can sometimes interfere with breastfeeding, but from what you have said it doesn't sound like that's a worry . Just try using it when you stick him to bed and like Maria said, if he wakes up sooner than expected give it to him. This way, the gap between feeds will be longer and he can have a larger feed when he wakes which means he'll be fuller, and therefore should sleep longer again... it's kinda a viscious circle really.

Ayja is still really mucked up with her feeding at daycare, they have started mucking her around a bit, so will have to remind them tomorrow. poor girl, was supposed to go back to bed after i fed her yesterday at 12.30, cos she'd been up an hour already and that's how long she stays up for. nup, they put her to bed at 2.30... hello! 3 hours?! I got over there to feed her at 3 and she was asleep so she had to wait till she woke up finally at quarter to 5.. poor girl, i wasn't going to wake her up when she had only just gone to sleep. argh.   I mean i know for some people, having a kid that comes home from daycare, and is so exhausted she goes to bed at 6.30 and sleeps 12 hrs straight might be nice, but not for me... i get no time with her where she isn't cranky and tired. she doesn't get proper feed times or she misses feeds altogether if they don't keep to her routine. and she can't be getting much out of being awake that long... she won't be able to learn and play if she's dog-tired 99% of the time.   definately will have to have a word i think.

today though, i have the day off and she has had 2 big 3hr sleeps and nice big feeds and she's happy as. sometimes i just wish i could be a SAHM.]]> Wed, 14 Sep 2005 15:53:36 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=15146&title=prams-where-to-start#15146 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : I was supposed to have it yesterday,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=15136&title=prams-where-to-start#15136 Author: lou

yeah try giving it to him when you put him to bed if you want. Then if he crys when he wakes put it in and see if he will settle back to sleep. He may get into a 3 hourly routine of an hour and a half up and an hour and a half down. That way you will be able to get a little play with him too.

Hey, Jake was one of the only babies i know who didn't lose weight after he wa born!! He was a little piggy too and may as well have been surgically attached to the breast for all the eating he did. He put on heaps of weight. After a few weeks of him constantly eating my mother-in-law gave him a dummy. Turns out he was just sucking for comfort not because he was hungry. With the dummy I fed him 3 hourly much easier. ]]> Thu, 08 Sep 2005 10:44:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=14952&title=prams-where-to-start#14952 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : I know weird isn&#039;t it considering...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=14949&title=prams-where-to-start#14949 Author: newmum

I know weird isn't it considering he is only getting breast milk!!! My dad said yesterday if he carries on like this he will be 30kg by his first bday, hahahahaha

So I shouldn't worry?

wow what a piggy. just looked At Alyssa's well child book (my normal baby) she was doing between 150 and 250gms a week.   I had an oversupply of milk and made the mistake of letting her feed 2houly in the evening (witching hour) and gave her a sore tummy because she only got foremilk, which led to colic blah blah blah. So from then on she was never fed less than 3 hours apart. Jayde a whole different story and she doesnt want food. So had to try and feed her 2 hourly, whew now gone to 4 hourly feeds. So i guess what im saying is that they are all different and you will work something out that suits you both. If hes happy and your happy feeding him 2 hourly then thats great. His weight gain is amazing.

I was reading through the posts on demand feeding etc. and I think I must have the greediest baby in the world... Joey feed EVERY 2 hours no mater what, you could almost set a clock by him. Day and night...
He has put on 900grams in 2 weeks... Is this normal???

we had the heal prick done at 6 days, midwife was supposed to come do it but it ended up being done at the hospital after Ayja's accident, cos they wanted blood taken, so just pricked her heel and did the test patches as well as collecting a little tube of blood. only thin gis, since it was the children's ward, and not the newbie ward, their heel pricker's were child sized and they couldn't get any baby sized ones, so she had a rather large hole in her heel which bled for a while.. ended up with a sticking plaster over half her foot!

Well, Ayja has been so tired after daycare lately, (hhhm i wonder why... since she sleeps for only 45 mins at a stretch there!) that once we get home, she has a feed at about 6 - 6.30 and goes down to bed... she used to do that and sleep for and hour then wake again and go down for the night at 8. nup no more, now she sleeps thru from 6.30. usually i get her up for a feed at 10.30 - don't wake her, she just feeds while semi-awake. last night i though nah, she'll wake at about 2 and then 4 like she has been lately... nope, she slept 12 hours traight, and woke up so bright and chirpy. was nice to get the sleep, but still may wake her most nights for that last feed... it has definately made a difference in her weight gain... before we started doing that she was only gaining about 120gms every 2 weeks. when she got weighed the other day we figured out that in the 5 weeks since her last weigh, she had gained an average of 180 gms per week, yay! is now 11 pound 2.]]> Thu, 08 Sep 2005 08:47:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=14928&title=prams-where-to-start#14928 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : Jake had his six weeks ones and...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=14913&title=prams-where-to-start#14913 Author: lizzle

Don't stress too much - I was so paranoid when Maya had her first ones and it was over so quickly. And it feels so much better to know that she has some protection against all the nasties lurking.

In fact, Maya didn't even cry for any of her imms, even at 15 mths when she had a huge allergic reaction, she just looked a bit stunned when the needle went in, and then forgot about it. ]]> Wed, 07 Sep 2005 19:15:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=14899&title=prams-where-to-start#14899 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : first jabs due at 6 weeks, I am...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=14897&title=prams-where-to-start#14897 Author: newmum

LOL at the sleep schedule Maria, I so know what you mean! Maya was on hourly feeds for a couple of months when she was sick and I used to hate going to bed coz I knew I wouldn't be there long!

Becs, like Nikki I found Maya didn't really get hungry in between feeds. She was such an easy baby tho, makes me terrified to have another one coz there's no way I'll end up with 2 placid, easy to settle babies! She pretty much slept in between feeds, woke, fed, played for about 1/2 hour on the floor or in the bouncinette, the went back to bed and slept until the next feed time. I can't remember her ever screaming about being hurngry in between times, but I'm sure if she did I probably just fed her.]]> Tue, 16 Aug 2005 10:10:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=13535&title=prams-where-to-start#13535 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : Yep im all for routines.

I did demand feeding for the first couple of weeks but it all went a bit crazy because when Hannah would cry because she had wind I would assume she was hungry and then she snacked all the time. Drove me nuts. She was also sleeping for 4 hour stretches and the feeds and sleeps were really unpredictable.

Midwife suggested feeding her three hourly and it worked perfectly! If she was noticeably hungry before three hours then I just fed her. But usually 3 hours was the perfect time. Especially helped me because I knew that if she was crying then generally it was because of wind (or something else) and not because she was hungry.]]> Mon, 15 Aug 2005 23:25:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=13510&title=prams-where-to-start#13510 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : how did u manage if Maya was `awake...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=13491&title=prams-where-to-start#13491 Author: Xander&Harmony

We did routine feeding during the day, 3 hourly, then demand feeding at night. I thought this would teach her to feed every 3 hours permanently so I was a bit anti, but Plunket said in fact it tops them up enough that they don't need feeding so often during the night. I woke her up to feed during the day if she was asleep, then woke her at 10.30pm for her last feed, then put her down and fed her when she woke during the night. Night feeds got further and further apart and by 7 weeks she was sleeping thru.

My midwife did tell me tho that babies less than 6 weeks old do need nighttime feeds as their tummies are so small, so to always wake her for a night feed until she was 6 weeks.

As long as they have plenty of wet nappies, and are gaining weight they are usually fine, and in the early weeks they get weighed every few days, then every week, so it's pretty easy to keep track of progress.]]> Mon, 15 Aug 2005 11:33:13 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=13480&title=prams-where-to-start#13480 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : i dont like th whole routine feeding.im...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=13466&title=prams-where-to-start#13466 Author: Xander&Harmony

yep that's what i am like today actually. yesterday Ayja spent all day feeding and feeding every hour or so, she cried constantly, it drove me bonkers.. i just wanted her to sleep. so what does she do? finally goes to sleep at 8.30 last night and hello, wakes up at 6.30 this morning. I freaked out. and today, she has had big feeds and slept for 3 and half hours at a stretch before i wake her.. i know i shouldn't but her weight gain in the last few weeks hasn't been too flash so i do. she feeds and falls back asleep, looks like she's drunk. seems happy enough, and for the little while she's awake she's giggly and smiley. a little whingy but only when i pick her up cos she has nappy rash (too many toffee pops on my part) hopefully tomorrow things will even out and she'll be back to normal.

i hate all the worrying. even worse is the fact that both my kiddies are such deep sleepers. they go bright white and freezing cold when they are in a deep sleep and breath so silently and softly that you can't see or feel it. it's not nice to go and check them at all. half the time you end up with your heart in your throat. ]]> Tue, 02 Aug 2005 22:13:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=12731&title=prams-where-to-start#12731 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : The first time Maya slept thru...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=12694&title=prams-where-to-start#12694 Author: Maya

Jake has three different carers who all adore him and I guess, because he's the only non-japanese kid there, seem to pay him a lot more attention - good for him kinda, as now he expects it from everyone, and god-forbid you ignore him!!! But my point,(i'm getting there eventually, at work we teach kids and the kids don't have one specific teacher for private classes but they do for group classes. With the private classes we've had no problems, but with the group classes, it make it difficult for the teachers to take holidays as the kids really don't adjust well to having a new teacher, after being used to the old one. the private kids on the other hand are usually fine with a variety of teachers. Not really the same due to a huge difference in repsonsibility and time, however, maybe that is why the theory of no specified caregiver (?)]]> Tue, 21 Jun 2005 00:41:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=11134&title=prams-where-to-start#11134 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : thats what i thought it would...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=11130&title=prams-where-to-start#11130 Author: mum2paris

Maya's daycare assigns a primary carer to each child in the under 2's, Maya loved hers. She was 5 mths when she started, and Anna was her primary carer and right up until graduation she had a special attachment to her, even tho she was assigned a new primary carer at about 18 mths. I get the whole concept of them having to get used to other teachers, but it is a lot more 'stable' for baby to have 1 primary carer I think. ]]> Mon, 20 Jun 2005 19:57:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=11127&title=prams-where-to-start#11127 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : That sounsd about right Nikki...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=11122&title=prams-where-to-start#11122 Author: Xander&Harmony

Yep she is going to the same one. we have requested that she have a different care teacher.. however the one thing i don't agree with is that for little ones they don't have one set teacher that caters for them at first.. they have all different ones that take care of them. fair enough they have to learn to go to all the teachers but i would think for the settling in period getting to know just 1 would be less confusing... who knows..]]> Sun, 19 Jun 2005 14:46:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=11105&title=prams-where-to-start#11105 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : Well done Nikki and Janine!

Thanks guys

Hannah started creche when she was 3 and a half months old. I got the horror stories about leaving baby so I think I was pretty well prepared. I still go back and feed Han during the day, hang out at creche more than at uni!
It does help being able to go back. I always stay and play with the babies. Though it's so weird when their mums come to pick them up, I forget they don't live at creche! hehe

Is Ayja going to the same creche as Paris? I think it's be so good already knowing the carers

YAY Nikki - feels great to get things handed in till you remember you have more to come.

argh.. that reminds me.. I have assignments to start writing up. one due on july 8 and 2 due july 15th, plus 3 bio exams before august.. luckily am not at tech right now.. YAYAY! for study leave.

I start back on August 15th.. so bub will be 3 months approx. sat there today looking at her and thinking "I can't leave you"

It was hard enough to leave Paris, and she was 11 months old.. am seriously not looking forward to it I'm gonna be such a mess

at least i have an excuse to go over there heaps cos i can feed her, otherwise i'd have to camp outside and look in the window like a nutter.

I'll never forget the day I recieved my final results slip in my last semester, it was just such a relief that it was all finally over! I lived like a drill seargant for Maya's whole first year.

Speaking of study breaks - I would like to officially announce that I survived my first semester of studying with a baby!
I don't think I could have lasted much longer. As it was I handed in a few assignments a few months late. Had a very relaxed tutor for religious studies which was terrible for someone who will take any chance they can get to hand in anything late!
One more semester and I've finished my degree! (Got Han booked into creche a whole lot more next semester - I think I'm going to need it!)

If it makes you feel any better, my baby waited until I had finished all my university work before she came, because of course I left it all to the last minute! (9 days over)
I always wonder what would have happened had she decided to come on her due date. I'd have been screwed!!!

Altho you can't really rely on baby waiting. Unpredictable little buggers

I have a large boot so never thought of the size....

The lady who helped me in Baby factory was not very familiar with the buggy and took her a while to collapse it, however I saw a lady that day with the same buggy and she collapsed it easily (two hands)...and it didn’t look that big to me (normal for buggy’s these days).

This is how I see it , I transfer the baby from buggy to car seat and then collapse it or one of us hold the baby while the other collapses it.

I think for the price and quality....it is a good buy. I heard really good things about it too. I know you can get a toddler seat for this buggy...

Go and check it out in the shop, collapse it and see if it fits in your boot. I know you will like the way it maneuvers....

Thanks newmum (Ana?) it all gets a bit pricey doesn't it. But we figure it will have to 'service' 2-3 kids so we are trying to find one that suits and will last. I went into farmers yesterday to look at the Maclaren 3 wheeler.($699) It took 3(!!!) shop assistants to figure out how to collapse it, and only once all three were simultaneously pulling/pushing/pressing/removing bits and pieces....always a good sign! I also had a look at the mountain buggy. easy to put down but bulky/long.

nmaraea - I just saw it at "babycity online" for $699 without the carry cot. That has to be purchased separately and costs around $299 I think. We got ours at Farmers and they had a deal on where we got both for $740 I think. They often do special offers like that and I think I saw one when I was in the actual "babycity" shop the other day. The pram and carry cot both come with storm covers and the stroller alone also comes with a lovely foot muff. I hope this helps...

nmaraea it's not too bad when collapsed, but we have a toyota hilux so no probs with space!
I tried to get it into my friends boot (corolla sedan) but it wouldn't fit unless I took the front wheel off. If you have a hatchback, it shouldn't be a prob.
We had bought a 4-wheeler to start as I preferred them over the 3-wheel but it only had plastic wheels and wasn't too good to push on the gravel etc...I would definately recommend 3-wheelers unless you have the $$$ to get the Bertini 4-wheelers that have rubber tyres as well.

Newmum do you have any idea on the price or know of a baby store where I could find one in Auckland to test them out?]]> Wed, 08 Jun 2005 13:30:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10876&title=prams-where-to-start#10876 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : We bought a new MacLaren 3 wheeler...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10875&title=prams-where-to-start#10875 Author: newmum

We bought a new MacLaren 3 wheeler (Mac3). It didn't look as sporty as the mountain buggy one What I love is that we have the carry cot addition for the first months and then can make it into a stroller when baby is bigger. It was lighter than the mountain buggy and is easy to manouver as it has a swivel wheel at the front that you can also hold in place. Folds up quite well too. Only thing is the price, but thank goodness for first time grandma's - it was her present to us!! ]]> Wed, 08 Jun 2005 12:54:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10875&title=prams-where-to-start#10875 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : Oooh the battle of the 3 wheeler...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10873&title=prams-where-to-start#10873 Author: nmaraea

Oooh the battle of the 3 wheeler versus the 4 wheeler. I had thought I'd made up my mind on a 4 wheeler but some of you guys think they're a bit difficult and bulky? Back to the drawing board for me then. (Becca do you remember the cost of your 4 wheeler?)
Jacks mum, how light is your pram.. I need to get one that will fit into a little runabout car too, so how bulky do you find it when collapsed?]]> Wed, 08 Jun 2005 12:47:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10873&title=prams-where-to-start#10873 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : hey Jacksmum, I think we have...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10775&title=prams-where-to-start#10775 Author: lizzle

hey Jacksmum, I think we have the same stroller.

We have a 4-wheel Century Sportslite and it's great. It's light enough to lift up a couple of stairs when Josiah is in it! I walked back from town to our house (takes 1 hour) with Kiya in it before Josiah was born, and it handled really well.]]> Fri, 03 Jun 2005 15:38:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10762&title=prams-where-to-start#10762 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : I&#039;ve got a 4 wheeled pram...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10745&title=prams-where-to-start#10745 Author: gytsrik

I've got a 4 wheeled pram at the moment, and find it was really good while Dylan was a very little babe, but now (he's 2 1/2 months) i'm finding it a pain! It's so big and heavy, i'm actually looking for a 3 wheeled one now!

We have a steelcraft 3-wheeler from babycity. I think it's called 'Urban' and I love it. So easy to steer with the front swivel wheel and easy to collapse.
It came with the newborn head support thingy, wind-break cover and boot cover. From memory, I think it was about $350. The next model up was about $420?? and you can attach the toddler seat to it.
Looking back now, we should've got that one as we're going to try for #2 soon, but was outta the price range at the time. ]]> Tue, 31 May 2005 12:02:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10668&title=prams-where-to-start#10668 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : Janine, I went to Babystar in...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10559&title=prams-where-to-start#10559 Author: kerryberry

Hi Janine,

Yeah I know you can get the buggy cheaper on Winkalotts, but they didn't have the highchair for free with it, so it ends up being WAY cheaper the way we did it as the chair is worth $279.00. Its like the Picopico highchair which is on Winkalotts. I will get more accessories later on though through winkalotts, I got all my breast pump/steriliser etc through them and saved myself mega bucks, its great. And the free postage just makes it all that much better....:-) But yeah the lack of 3D virtual testing is a bit of a bummer....LOL]]> Tue, 24 May 2005 11:19:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10556&title=prams-where-to-start#10556 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : Just had a squiz at the winkalotts.co.nz...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10555&title=prams-where-to-start#10555 Author: nmaraea

Hey kerry, we have the same buggy the phil and teds one.. have not heard of the euro highchair though..

if you haven't bought it yet, Maria told me about winkalotts.com.. the buggy is a bit cheaper on there. and so are the bits and pieces to go with it.]]> Mon, 23 May 2005 14:22:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10532&title=prams-where-to-start#10532 <![CDATA[Prams$$$ Where to start?!! : The Baby Factory shop in Newmarket...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=718&PID=10521&title=prams-where-to-start#10521 Author: nmaraea
