Me and My Family

Well. Where do I start! I'm a 25 year old mum of a gorgeous 1 year old (today's her birthday as I write this!) My husband and I have just tied the knot in august 2008 so at the moment am just settling into all my new roles! We live on an island just accross the water from England. I'm a stay at home mum and hope to continue this for as long as we can afford it. We're also starting to think about baby number 2 though we want to get EMily sleeping through the night before we have another one thats up all night!

Baby numero 2

Comment Published at 05:5205:522 comments2 comments9 Visits9 VisitsReport

So the subject came up yet again! My DH has said that he wants to wait for years before having another baby! I'm really struggling with that. I was hoping to be pregnant this time next year. I know that life will be so much harder with 2 but i'm sooo wanting another child. DH says its a hormonal thing that women go through once their 1st reaches about 1. Maybe he's right but it doesn't make this any easier!

Emily-May's sleeping has improved a million percent! I gave up b/feeding and although she wakes up 3 times in the night its only for 10 minutes and has a bottle. Got a new problem to tackle now though! Cos she's having so much milk at night shes refusing to eat much in the day. I know what I have to do but I'm not ready for another bowt of no sleep ust yet. SHes happy, healthy and is still putting on weight so Im not too worried about her. I decided not to put her onto cows milk yet though because I dont think she is eating enough quite yet.

Getting aa bit fed up with the diet! I went down to below my pre preg weight for the wedding in august and then I put on a stone in 10 days on honey moon and haven't mamanged to shift it! Imbeing sooo strict too!

just got a phone call for jury duty??! What the???? Hope I cant get out of it or emily is going to have to come too!!!!

poorly baby :(

Emily-may's got a virus I think. She had a tem of 38.3 last night and wa really dozhy. Took her to the out of hrs dr and he says she coming down with something. Not looking forawrd to finding out what that is! Ths is the 1st time shes ever been ill so I was a right state going down to the clinic. I had all sorts of nightmares going through my head!I must have checked on her at least once and hour last night too.

My friend had a little boy this morning weighing 7lb4. Shes called him Jack. Im so happy for her buut I think i hae a definite case of the green eyed monster. I'm desperate for another child now. To do the whole pregnancy again.Im even desperate to try labour again knowing what I know now and try to tackle it in a different way. That probably sounds totally ridiculous but I've never been so broody before. DH wants to wait until EMily-May's alot older before trying again but Ive found it difficult to even wait this long! I think we're both going to have to compromise in the end.

Anyhow, best go. Emily-May's nt slept all ady so she's getting  really tired.

christmas already!

Comment Published at 10:0310:030 comments0 comments4 Visits4 VisitsReport

Wow, feels like the year is just flying past!! Can't believe its the christmas season already. Its mad. Haven't even started christmas shopping. Cant work out whether to sort out a stocking for missy or not...

Sleeping is slowly improving since I packed in the breastfeeding.Its been hard (on me actually much more than her) but she seems to be really cuddly with me in the moring when shes all cute and dozy now. Its really nice to know shes not just wanting to be close cos I ve got the milk!

stopping breastfeeding

Comment Published at 00:0900:090 comments0 comments24 Visits24 VisitsReport

We took Emily-May to the doctors yesterday about her sleeping habits and if suggested that I consider giving up breastfeeding. I was thinking along the same lines myself so it didnt cvome as a massive shock. Last night was the 1st time I tried no breast and she woke up only twice for 10 mins and downed a 7 oz bottle! She slept really well. It makes me think maybe my breastmilk just wasnt satisifying her enough.. Its hard though. Knowing that Im never going to feed her again but it feels like time for both of us to move on
