JUNE/JULY/AUGUST 2014 DUE DATE CLUB - THREAD #3

[Little Lunasa]

Lunasa, those eyelashes! So adorable. My little girl won't take a paci either. She does like to nurse to sleep which I let her at night. During the day she is on a eat wake sleep schedule, so shes awake after feedings. We then play and when ready for nap we rock, pat back all the soothing stuff.
I used that schedule with my boys and I think it helps nighttime sleep. She is now sleeping thru the night.
One thing I've learned with 4 kids, sleep makes them sleep. If they don't nap much they will be up at night...hope that helps! Enjoy her.

Thanks Snips, yes totally agree that sleep generates more sleep. I haven't heard of eat wake sleep schedule, it seems almost the opposite to what I'm used to, I must google and find out more!

Nicolas doesn't like the Maya sling wrap I've been trying to put him in. He wails and wants to get out. Once he settled and fell asleep but I don't know what was different that time. I'll keep trying. Today I took him to the grocery store for the first time and just propped his car seat in the cart. I was a little jealous of the moms whose little ones were content to be worn in slings.
He's been a handful the past couple of days but also absolutely adorable.
Tomorrow is my first day back at work, and I'm only going to go in one day a week the first two weeks and then two days for awhile. I'm fortunate to be able to set my own schedule, and my husband works from home those days so he'll be with Nicolas. Still it will be hard to leave him for eight hours.
Today we did "Mommy and Me Yoga" which was fun.

Hi all! Sorry I have been MIA forever! Things got SO busy after Myles was born. He was born on 7/31 a couple of days late & a super big baby at 10lb 3oz & 22in. I am trying to attach a picture hope it works for some reason this computer gives me problems.

Hope all of you are doing good. I will try to catch up on past posts but little man is not a fan of sleeping during the day. He sleeps great at night though so I can't really complain he just doesn't leave me much time to get anything else done esp w/how busy I am with the older kids.

Can't believe I'm saying this but he has been so perfect DH & I are actually considering trying one more time. Haven't decided for sure yet but I don't feel done so we will see. Looking forward to catching up with you all!

Such a cutie, dreams, and what a boy! Was he born naturally or c-sec? Enjoy him xx

[dreams529]

He was all natural not even any pain meds. I would not recommend that! LOL

He is so cute! I know how you feel, Anya sleeps like a rock at night, like 7-8 hours straight, but during the day it's all catnaps and demanding attention non stop! How exciting you are planning to have more kids! Brave girl! DH was telling me the other day that maybe getting my tube ligation was a mistake and I said 'nooo, not me, I'm done mate!'
