April 2011 babies

Thanks for the link Kyra. I only verbally requested the change as I thought I had a good relationship with my managers, so I'm now thinking possibly I should put it in writing. That would mean I'd have to go back to work full-time for 2 months as they have 3 months to make a decision. At least then they'd have to come up with a genuine reason/excuse to decline me. I have applied for 4 jobs this week, but I hate the whole job interview/applying process. We're buying our weekly lotto ticket for a lucky windfall, but it's probably just a donation to the lotteries commission, lol. No luck tonight Hopefully the perfect job will come along, good pay and the hours I need.

A question regarding reflux, can baby's get it later on? Grace has a gurgly tummy, and has been spilling quite alot lately. We've also had trouble with getting wind up. It's only been the last couple of weeks. TIA

Yeh it sucks that couldn't sort something out more casually with your managers. We're donating weekly to the lotteries commission too    Hope you can find a job that suits, or your managers reconsider!

HI Merlin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Long time no speaky!!!

Glad its going well.

Hi Guys

Sorry - been terribly MIA for last couple of months!! Haven't been on here in ages - mainly been on FB when I get a chance to get online.

Jade - I think I've "found" you on FB - sent you a request but forgot to put message in so hopefully you work out who I am - sorry about that

Hannah - great to hear all is going well - have been thinking about you.

Will try to read back over pages to catch up.

Hope you are all well and babies doing well too.

Logan is doing absolutely great - 4 1/2 mths now and just a little joy. Sleeping 10hrs consistently with a few longer sleeps occasionally. Still sleeping pretty well during the day too.

Take care

Hey!!! Sorry I havn't been on, my computer has been broken.
How is everyone doing? Lachlan has started sleeping 8 -9 hours at night! its great. usually i still have to get up and give him his dummy though.
Is anyone thinking of starting solids soon? I wanted to wait until 6 months but he seems to be really hungry lately and im feeding him after his sleeps (like normal) but he also seems to want to feed before his sleeps!

Hey Cinderella, most little babies need changing between 8 - 10 times a day, sometimes more sometimes less. Hope that helps

Awesome sleep hayley.

I tried Caden on Farex for 3 days but dont think hes quite there yet lol.. will wait until he shows more signs.

Hes sleeping 8pm - 7.30-8am the past week

Cinderella I had 2 huge boxes 150 naps of the huggies newborn and went through them as caden was little... but yeah had a nappy change each feed.. so 8-9 less now hes older.

Wow wheres everybody gone? So quiet on here! I had that LEEP procedure yest afternoon so pretty sore today :( Levis improving he put on weight this week, in fact lots of weight (330gms) all the expressing and bottle top ups appears to be working :) he's very chatty and his new trick is blowing bubbles :p currently he's busy kicking me!! We seem to have a bit of a routine goin, down around 7pm, feeds at 10ish, 12-1,4 and then up for the day around 6 wish he would wait until 7.30 but big bro started his day at 5.30 this morning so it wouldn't have given me more sleep anyways!
Hope ur all well and babies are happy and healthy

Thanks I've added u ;)

Hi everyone,

Bit of a blast from the past here .... I'm sorry I'm so slack. I have been reading but not posting. I have PND :( sort of thought I did but refused to believe it until I was called out for not getting dressed a few days in a row and always crying.

Things are on the up now, drugs have improved the situation and hubby is trying to be home a bit more too.

DS2 is great, sleeping 7 - 10, then 10.30 - 7am each night. He had a wee cold last week which broke the cycle but otherwise he's a cruisy we guy.

DS1 is finally coming around to have a sibling. He tries to play with him and talks to him which is nice.

I've made the decision to go back to work on Nov 14, just working out whether I go do it P/T until the new year, just to ease back into it. Once I've made that decision I will write to my boss and let him know. My work has a graduated return to work policy which allows new parents to work 50% of their hours for up to 3 months when they start back at work. I'm going to take full advantage of it.

Take care ladies.
