October 2010 babies!!

Well I am now able to walk without crutches!!! After 2+ weeks not doing much but hobbling around it feels like bliss :-) Truely missed looking after Paige, its weird becasue I still got to do alot of play and cuddling but actually missed all the little moments of picking her up, feeding her and "shock horror" changing nappies!

Back to pretty much normal now, although still have a thigh to ankle brace on and LOTS of physio to go but at least I can walk around

big news here, is that we have (or are...lol) transitioning Paige to a montessori floor bed (Linky). While I have been laid up, her night time sleep went out the window to the point that she screamed and screamed when you tried to put her in her cot. So while goggling about how to get her to sleep in her cot again, I came across this. After lots of investigation and reading I decided we had nothing to lose...lol!

We are onto day 2 now. First day, her afternoon sleep was non-exisent (she played instead) but went straight to sleep at night. woke twice in the night and when I went in found her just off her mattress. popped her back onto the bed, gave her a quick back rub and she settled right away. woke at 6am with a bit of a cry but no different from normal wake up.

Day 2 (today) - afternoon sleep, she went straight to sleep after a book and a bit of a cuddle. And tonight, to my amazement, she crawled off her bed when I left the room, had a bit of a play (about 5-10mins) and when I went back to check on her, she had crawled back to her mattress and put herself to sleep!!!

A bit out there but so far seems to be working heres hoping it continues!

Hi! Yep busy life here Sophie. Teaching 5 days a week has me pretty knackered.

We have an fb group btw - "OhBaby! October '10 Mamas" it's a secret group, but you should be able to send a request and I'll add whoever still wants to join.

back to two sleeps here for the time being, but still in bed by 7.30pm each night, so much better. i'm also feeling human again :)

Found out on Friday we have another on the way too. Due late July which seems far too close. Anyone live in Wgtn that had a good Midwife? Think we'll go down the MW track this time.

Yay more bubs! I'm having my 12weeks scan today I'm scared but excited! Ive been tiring to keep myself coz my scan isn't until 4pm.

dneyn, haven't been on OB much, it died in here and i've been overly sensitive in regard to weight topics in my new due thread so haven't been logging in.

found out today that we're having another little girl. i'm very happy. Liv will have a baby sister and a best friend in one, and I don't have to buy a thing (other than an attachment toddler seat for the stroller).

there will be 19 months squiggly

I've tried to add you Paula but it won't let me... Will try again a bit later.
