He's grand, he just had a big feed and asleep here beside Me. Can not wait to see what he weighs in an hour or so! Also, registering him tomorrow. Did it take long from when you registered R to get her pps in the post? How is She today? Happier since her poo?!:) ha x

Betsie_xr3i

I registered her Thursday and got her PPS number then Tuesday, yeah she is much happier since her poo :-) she is wide awake here no intention of sleeping haha :-)

Gee_G

Ah doesn't take long so. Wonder how long child benefit Takes to come through then?

Betsie_xr3i

I dunno can't see it taking too long

pushkii

im really enjoying my day out just had Italian :-) yum :-) no joy with the christening dresses will try tks maxx soon

Gee_G

Oh I'd love an italian!!

Yeah they back date the child benefit payments. Mmm Italian, totally craving a thin crispy pizza right now, I guess the cravings don't end once pregnancy is over haha.

We booked our christening today, its going to be the same day as my birthday which will be nice, double celebration We have a family christening gown that we will use so that will be nice. What do ye all have planned for the afters? We haven't decided yet whether we'll have it in the house or out somewhere.

H is 1 month old today! I had a little bun with a candle for her and sang happy birthday to her at 4.30 (time she was born), I'm so sad haha! :P

Hi Ladies, trying to catch up on the posts, my little monkey was up all morning and only went down around 3 for a nap, he is definetly sleeping less, but so hungry all the time, but nurse said keep him on the formula he is on!!!! he is a good sleeper at night though, sometimes sleeping for 5 hours in a row but that would be after taking 2 bottles in a row before bed, he stores his food for the night!!!!

Im on facebook too, so would love to join the group, i will pm gee g with my link if i can shortly. going to have a coffee and maybe a nap before i make up some more bottles!!!!

Take care everyone. xx

Wow gee g that's a brilliant weight, what a little buster,

Pushki sounds like you had k lovely day, did you miss c?

Rose great to hear from you again :-)

Gee_G

Yeah I was delighted. He's thriving
She also gave me few tips for constipation, putting half teaspoon of fresh squeezed orange juice in bout two oz of water or prune juice same measurements. But said no panic unless its third day without dirty nappy if they'r not in pain.

Betsie_xr3i

Oh go away never thought you could give them juice :-) only give them that after day 3 is it?

Gee_G

Well it's only tiny bit of juice to water ratio so you probably can't even taste it! On day three that is, maybe starting that morning and then she said at end of day 3 if still nothing, off to the chemist! But she reckons the orange or pruNe juice generally kick starts things!

Betsie_xr3i

Oh that's brilliant to know though just in case :-)

pushkii

That is so cute October :-) I had a lovely day alright got a dress for myself for the christening , i was delighted to come home to C though! i got my christening candle and shawl in the post today too :-) i didn't see any nice dresses in limdrick so i ordered one online just there it looks gorgeous on the website i hope it is as nice when i get it !
C guzzler all the milk i had expressed!! i couldn't believe it! My boobs were so sore when i got home i couldn't wait to express!!
I think were gonna go for a meal after the christening its just family so there won't be too many going

Gee_G

Glad you had a nice day. You are well sorted for christening now so. When is it again?
We provisionally booked ours in a hotel near us. We Were going to have it in the house as we have quite a bit of space and a few reception rooms I suppose You couLd call them. But decided against it. Its just bloody handier going for buffet as we've 38 people coming....and that's just our families!!!! At least there's no cleaning up and can come home to a clean house

pushkii

We had another good night C settled at about 1 and i actually cant even remember what times she woke after that because i slept fed her and then she woke at 11am !! Her nappy was drenched clothes and all but at least we got a great sleep :)I have a crib and im wondering whether to put it beside the bed as shes not going to use the moses basket, i only have a single bed so its a bit cramped with both of us in it
I'm definitely feeling more human:D now after such a good sleep!
