I really like this advice - "just holding hands" - am going to put into action tonight (at least for the few hours we share in bed together together before I go off to bubs room for the rest of the night because my hubbie is sick of my getting up an…
Lucky I checked in! I'll look out for new date and time. :-)
14 June sounds great - I am putting it in my diary now as I always forget!!! Presume time and place are the same.
What a lovely range!

haha move to Christchurch - its cold - I still sleep with my woolrest underlay, a sheet, mink blanket and some nights a duvet as well - and I'm 37 weeks pregnant! I wish I lived somewhere where you could wear dresses and go swimming outdoors.
Hi
I know they work for some kids but the one we had dried out my daughter's skin very badly and brought out rashes on her chin and neck so no good for us.

I have a four year old and an eight month old, wow it has been hard work. The older the baby gets the less attention the older child gets, as baby gets more demanding. As I quit work two months before hand I reduced her daycare days to two per week…
Hi Sarah, sorry I don't really have any tips as I'm in very much the same boat as you!
I'm due in five weeks and have a little girl who just turned two at the start of the month. Bree also adores babies and her dolls (her 'bubbas') and most morning…
Our second child is due in 4 weeks and like most mums I guess I am worried about how our first (aged 22 months) will handle it. Does anyone have any good tips re keeping toddlers happy when Mum takes ages to breastfeed etc with the new bub?
I'm m…
My little Emily who is 22 months old has loved art since day one - she has her own easel that is set up with her felts and crayons and she draws everyday - she can do dots and lines and circles and is learning to do small marks at the moment. She al…
I am four weeks off having my second child and am already getting babybrain - This diary would so help me keep on top of things - well as on top of things as a new mum can be the second time round. Having something that would fit in my hand/baby bag…
Hi Sarah. This is probably too old a response, but for the benefit of anyone else reading it. I used the S26 also, it was when my girl had a nasty virus and couldn't shake the runs - I was advised that cows milk probably wouldn't be helping, so gave…
It was cool to see you guys - hopefully next time I won't be working and we can spend more time with you. I'm happy to have everyone over to ours one morning. Sez and Em

Oh how did you manage with leaving her there crying like that, that must break your heart so much, I would have been a blubbering mess by the time I got to the car. I am so not looking forward to that at all :( I think thats what I'm dreading the most actually.

- Hey Sarah,
Things are going great now :) Kahlan is now having her morning and afternoon feed by sippy cup. She likes to do it all by herself, and sometimes won't drink it at all but doesn't seem to be hungry, so leave her to it. Am so proud of her - she's all ready to go with daycare in a weeks time :)
How about your little one?

- Hey Sarah,
Oh my god huge huge breakthrough this morning, I am so happy :)
I didn't give Kahlan her 10am boob feed this morning, was so hard not to do because she was crying and very upset about it. I waited until 11am by distracting her, and by then I knew she really wanted it - and then I gave her the bottle. She hated it and screamed and cryed, so I put her down on the corner of the couch and put the formula into her sippy cup (non spill thank goodness) and she drunk the whole thing all by herself! I was so proud of her! She must have been so thirsty but she did it! Yay! So it seems that the tough love thing does work, and for Kahlan she obviously wants to just do it on her own without me holding her, which is fine, will make it easier for other people to be able to give her bottles too :)
Hope your little one is doing good :)
Enjoy your long weekend!

- Hey Sarah,
Oh thats awesome, both you and Em are doing well :) I have to try something very soon because Kahlan starts daycare in a month, and will be there for 2-3 full days a week.
My best friend who is a midwife has suggested to take away a bf from her, and instead let her have a bottle if she wants it and if not then nothing. She said that if she is thirsty she will drink. It just means that I may have to make up for it later, so am going to try tomorrow taking out her 10am bf, and letting her have a bottle if she wants it and will see how we go. Scary but it still leaves me plenty of time to get her sorted before daycare this way. I somehow need to get her on the bottle for 2 feeds a day, and at the moment she is still looking at the bottle like its her worst enemy.
Keep me updated on how you go!
How are you finding it being back at work?
