Wow... one Thanksgiving holiday and 6 pages ago, here we are... I had to take notes this time and I apologize if I missed anybody but 6 pages? :shock:
Jo... {{{HUGS}}} to you. I hope that Fraser has better nights and sleeps soon so he can hope for siblings!
Judy... A friend of mine is having twins soon (this week, I believe) James and I were just commenting about how a mom with twins would have a difficult time going out in a vehicle because it would be hard to get both down to the car at the same time. Congratulations on getting out with all your girls! Even though it was probably an eye-rolling 10 minutes.
Traci - When Arwyn gets up early, I count A time from waking. So... this morning she got up at 6:30 am... she went down for a nap at 8:30 am. I hope your father takes it easy... sometimes family members don't think about how it affects the people closest to them. Glad to hear about the lovely Thanksgiving. And it is no surprise Cole stole the show, he is so very loveable!
Andrea... very cute picture of you and Oli.
Hayley & Erin... Sometimes being careful still results in bonks on the head and bruises. :roll: I poked Arwyn in the eye this morning while feeding her and have scratched her leg when buckling her down in her highchair. :roll: At least I am trying to be careful... couldn't imagine what shape she would be in if I didn't. :shock:
Lisa... I am doing 4 milk feeds during the day. I also do a DF for a total of 5 BFs daily. I will be dropping the DF soon... I hope with the time change that I can eliminate it completely by the end of the month.
Richelle... Arwyn switches from 2 naps to 3 naps occasionally. I don't know what causes it... it has nothing to do with the length of naps but sometimes she has 4 :shock: short ones and sometimes a combo of them so??? Who knows?
Well... like the rest of you who posted about good nights, I jinxed myself and am recovering from 4 nights of multiple night wakings!!! Holy smokes we were tired this weekend! I can't believe it, she has been getting up 2-3 times a nights... I think it is because she has discovered how to get up onto her hands and knees and "rev". She rocks forwards and backwards like she is getting ready to go somewhere
and then drops down onto her belly.
She is doing that in her sleep and waking herself up! She is still sleeping (I think) and then she pulls up into this "table" position (for al you yoga fans out there) and then wakes up crying when she falls over. Sometimes I walk in there and she is crying with her eyes closed and seems to be still sleeping! Is there such thing as "sleep-crawling" or whatever she is doing that happens to infants?
Wouldn't you know it? On Friday, I wanted to get out early to the picket lines to show support to my colleagues and Arwyn decides to have a 2hr 15min nap. Today, I wanted to get out there too (teacher strike happening in B.C. -- Day 2) and she is fast approaching the 2hr mark. :roll: Don't get me wrong, not complaining about long naps, just her timing of them
.
Have a great day everybody!
