   What a horrible night for you    I'm a bit shocked at Sienna's weight though, hope the gp visit goes well.

   Went to the GP and Sienna's weight is a bit off but she said not to worry too much at this stage and just weigh her again in a couple of weeks when she is well. And Mercedes the porker has put on 600g and is now 8.9kg altho that was fully dressed and her last weigh was naked so she's probably not quite that heavy. And Sienna just had her first non-dirty nappy since Friday - woohoo!
 Thanks again for all your support and offers of help, I really appreciate it. And I'm sure Angela, my boss, will be stoked that OHbaby! is such a supportive, caring community.

   Maybe Mercedes is looking after Sienna's weight for her?   .  Good that you saw GP about though and YAY for the nonsoiled nappy!!
 [My gosh I hope Kaleb's weight gain slows down he's 7.44kg but is 6 months younger!]

   Big hugs! Glad Sienna is a bit better today and fingers crossed this is the last of the medical dramas for a while    How are they are going on the dairy?

   The dairy formula was an absolute disaster, they both got nasty diarrohea, but they seem to be coping OK with a little bit of baby custard/yoghurt every now and then.

   The specialist seems to think that rather than a true intolerance it's just their bodies reacting to the lactose coz they've never had it before. So hopefully if we gradually increase the yoghurt etc. their tolerance will gradually increase as well.

     Awww, Emma, and the rest of you, you are too kind. I was only doing what I'd want someone to do for me! I just wish I hadn't been so tired in the morning or I'd have hung up all the washing! I was more than happy to help out -- besides, the gremlins are cute, and Maya was a laugh a minute, telling me what to do, what nappies to use, what everyone eats for breakfast... although somehow I doubt that marshmallows are standard breakfast fare in your house, Emma, despite what she tried to convince me of! I hope poor little Sienna starts feeling better very, very soon. If not, I'll be back!    |

   Mum was impressed, she thinks Maya is very sneaky re: the marshmallows. And she was partly right - I DO let her choose what she wants for breakfast, but no, marshmallows are not usually on the menu!
 And no stress on the washing - Amy came and took three huge baskets away to dry and the new dryer arrived tonight (yahoo!) so I have put two loads thru myself already    |
