Hi Ladies,

Is there anyone that has a baby born in these months, there does not seem to be a thread.

SOOOOO i thought i should create one .

Noah is nearly 9 1/2 months now and it has flew around, started planning his 1st .
His just got his first tooth coming through, so is teething.

He eats anythink and everythink, his sleeping is getting better the last 5 nights have been bad but his teeth are coming through so put it down to that.

His got loads of toys but prefers to climb up me lol.

How are your bambis ?

hey char we were in the same month on the other site...i was due 19th of july, but became an august mummy (4th) 16 days overdue the lil nugget

benji is 9 months old (just turned) and is HUGE in length
he is in mostly 9-12 month tops and mainly 12mth+ bottoms
he is about 23lbs in weight!!

he also has tons of toys but would much rather sit on my lap and not do a thing, just suck his dummy

can't believe how quick these 9 months have gone...char, i have already got most of benji's bday pressies...got him loads of stuff to play with in the garden

does noah crawl/pull himself up yet?? benji doesn't do ANYTHING lol he is nicknamed tigger coz he just likes to bounce on the spot or on your knee...

benji doesn't eat much at the moment...but usually he would eat anything too...he has something wrong with him at the mo...and i just don't know what

any other july/august 2010 mummies??

me!!

Arwyn is 10 months old, due 30th June but born on 6th July. I'm planning her 1st birthday too

She's usually a good sleeper, a good eater, a very happy baby and pretty much never cries

I just had her weighed the other day, she's only just 20lbs, but I was sure she was much bigger! I've had to put her into 12-18months body suits and sleep suits but she wears 9-12 months tops and trousers, and even some 6-9 month trousers she has no teeth yet though.

She can crawl now, still commando style arms though but she's rapid! Loves climbing too but she can only get up onto her knees. She can stand up for a bit but only if we stand her up against the sofa but I have no desire for her to walk yet!!!

wow well done arwyn (love that name!!)
you got a good un there then pixel good sleeper/eater and she is crawling...i'll swap ya
wish benji would even crawl...not fussed about walking quite yet, but a lil crawl would be good...i worry that people look at him and think (because of how big he is!!) that he is slow on doing things
makes me feel like i dont do enough with him...any tips on helping him along with crawling?? he hates being on his front...thats the problem
what are you thinking of getting the lil ones??
i'm having a jungle animal themed party in my mums big garden, got a biggish pool and a lil paddlin pool for the kiddies...then im gonna get a giraffe pinyata (sp) and some animal facemasks eeek!!
so excited, but sad at the same time
boo!!
xxxxxxxx

I didn't do anything to encourage her, she just went on her own. Started off just dragging herself across the floor before she could get everything working together Does Benji roll? Arwyn used to just roll everywhere before she could crawl.
Don't worry about what other people think, it's nothing to do with them!

We're having a BBQ for Arwyn's birthday at a big park, other than that I have no idea! I think I'm going to get her a walker/pram that goes with her dolly and a pop up ball pool. I really want to get her a swing but we have no garden

awww well, atleast im not doing anything wrong, i know babies do things in their own time...he's just getting too big to carry now lol
yeah benji rolls...just doesn't like being lay on the floor...never has done
he prefers to be sat on your knee or next to you, or just generally on you...silly baba!!

aww wow that should be lovely for you all in the park would be lush!! all the parks round here are rank though
i got b a pop up ball pool too...got it from clearance bargains for £3.99
got him a few books and stuff too...don't wanna spend too much on him 'coz he won't remember this one...or maybe even the next one either

where have our babies gone huh?? CRAZY!!

Hi Ladies,

Nice to see you nice, is it just the three of us then.

Glad to see all is well, i think noah is about 20lb now he was 18lb 5oz a month ago.

Does any of ur LO loves taking things out of boxes lol. Noah takes all my folding washing out of the washing basket he also has a box full of bits and peices he loves to take out.

Noah is crusing well now around the sofa and walls, he walks well on his walker. I started walking at 11months so i think he will follow me. Have u tired them blow up things that helps them crawl, its like roller lol.

Pix, it wont be long b4 arwyn is crawling after a month of army crawling he started crawling properly.

Lou i am just going to get him some gardens toys too, maybe some big lego bits too. The little parties sound fun its a shame are los cant go to each others lol .

Char

i know char, very much a shame...nevermind, we can chat on here and put plenty of piccies up of their bdays on fb haha
yeah i think i need to invest in something, he's very lazy, like his dad!! his dad didn't do anything until 14 months, then he walked...no problem. Then found out he could crawl, and wouldn't walk again until 18 months i must have a stubborn boy (like his daddy!)
i wish he would even be ok for 15 mins on the floor alone, he's just such a mummies boy, which i didn't want...don't want a clingy baby lol

xxxxxxxx
how's babas today then?? xx

Lol, noah was clingy but going back to work has helped loads.
Have u got a walker it might help with his leg and back muscles.

Noah has been with daddy today whilst i have been to work got wed,thurs off so all good.

Noah is sleeping at the mo, going to wake him up tho coz he wont go to bed later otherwise lol.

Hopefully will have an announcement to make in general later lol.

Char

ooooooooo an announcement...it's either 1 or the other...hmmm pg or 2gether 4ever?? hmmm?



yeah he's got a walker, but for some reason can't do it on the carpet he gets stuck i'm guessing...we have NO laminate flooring, so he can't get about...see i never get a break
boo!!!

so wish it was saturday

I have put it on general now, ohh lou ur such a good guesser lol. No not pregnant want a drink when i go out lol. Also want to enjoy noah for another year or so. lol

I know i am really excited too, i havent met no one yet a tiny bit nervous now but i will be ok once i have met u all. lol.

Only 3 days to go anyway whopp whop

yup i kinda guessed lol
yeah can't wait to go away from my shitty life for a few days, i think i'll just try and enjoy every second Aand really let my hair down

I think that's just the way she's going to crawl, apparently her Daddy was just the same

Lou, have you tried distracting Benji with toys? getting down on the floor with him and playing? Arwyn is quite happy to play on the floor by herself but sometimes she just wants to climb me and have a hug

I'm looking forward to getting away too! I'm more looking forward to my lie in on Monday cos my Mum is taking Arwyn Saturday night to Monday afternoon

hahaha lucky you pix, i have until i get off the bus at stanley then it'll be "i'm soooo tired, here's your son!" hahaha

yeah i've tried the whole toys on the floor thing, as soon as i put him down he starts whinging, then within 5 mins, he has twisted himself onto me, and i'm stuck on the floor in amongst 3 zillion toys that he isn't interested in

pffft, he is just a lil bugger at the moment lol
bless him though, there's deffo something up with him, docs think it's to do with his bowels...blood in his poo today (not red either...black, so that means it's from inside him, and not just a fissure from straining- his poos are the size of a snickers bar- no exaggeration!!!!!!) <<

he's on some powdered medicine to move his bowels, as he attempts to poo everyday, but generally it's every 2(sometimes 3!) days
possibly gotta go to hospital next week with him if he's not eating atleast a meal a day, at the moment it's lucky if i can get half a bowl of weetabix down him...ny ideas how i can get food down him i've tried everything i can think of

how's everyones day been ? xx

Thank u for ur nice words on the post in general ur so complementary ur really pretty too lol. I am so excited to meet all of u, pix ur in the same boat ent u never meet anyone. Lou try the fruit an yogurt pooches from asda they have a plastic bit on the top and they suck it out like a caprison. Noah loves then. Try breadsticks crackers. I will diffo try there as its good with stomach issues. Ur probably givening him plenty of water. Lyns ur lucky with a lying, as soon as noah wakes I have to be up. The best thing is my mom is cooking me an noah a nice roast on the sunday . Cant beat ur moms sunday dinnerslol. Char x

Hello girls, I know you from the other forum. Eoin is 10 months today. He can be a really good baby and can be really awful too. He doesn't sleep through and never has. He crawls in a funny sort of way and since last week has been pulling himself up to stand at things. He has stopped rolling over and if he does fall he lies there crying until he's picked up. Lazy boy.
Wish i was coming to meet everyone at the weekend but i don't have the guts and also my oh wouldn't be happy if i left him with all the kids. Maybe he could go and i'll stay here and get peace from him.

Hi Shell, glad to see you.

10 months already its gone really fast. Noah has only been sleeping through form about 6 1/2 months and even sometimes he wakes in the night but i just leave him to go back to sleep. I find my dog wakes him up half the time lol.

Shell hopefully on the nxt meet you will come, or OH pmsl whilst you get a rest lol.

Char

Arwyn has started pulling herself up onto her feet now, clever girl

She's been really whiney past couple days and her bum is sore so I think she's teething again...... but no sign of any teeth so far today she's been better but she cried loads yesterday and she never really cries

I was supposed to be having a lie in this morning as OH was getting up with her today but sod's law I couldn't sleep!! at least I have Monday to look forward to!

Pix Noah only got his first tooth about 1 week ago. He started chomping on his fingers b4 teeth and wouldnt settle to well at bedtime. I didnt think Noah would get any teeth till about 1 coz i never got mine till i was 1 1/2. His dribbling loads now too.

When i try to have a lyin i cant, its strange coz i get used to getting up with noah. But yeah after an outrageous time at brum i am sure ur monday lyin would be needed.

Char

she's been "teething" for months on and off, but there's nothing there. I got teeth at 7 months but my OH didn't til after he was 1. I just hope she's good for my mum over the weekend!!

Hi Ladies how are we all how are the babies.

Not long now till there one.
Noah has two teeth now they have came so fast. His been a bit ill the past week, got a cold.

But we have some news yesterday he took his first 3 steps. His been getting so confident lately whenever he falls down he gets back up (via walker or sofa) and tries again lol, to walk from one thing to another.

Work is going ok? hard at times coz noah has been getting up in the night lately.

Whats everyone been up too enjoying the weather?

Char

hey char
benji has also got another teeth- so now he has 5 lil nashers hehe
gonna have a full set soon
benjamin is still just sittin, but he has been throwing himself at me, he holds out his hands and whinges, he uses my hands/arms to pull himself up, hasnt worked out how to use the sofa yet lol i don't think he's gonna crawl for a while, and his walking is just non existant lol i reckon he might bounce everywhere hehe he's my lil tigger
we've been at the park today, first time benji sat in sand he loved it i have a piccie but it's on my fone, and i can't get it on the comp for some reason...stupid thing

i dyed my hair red, got a bit of confidence from it too, i feel it really suiits me yippee
me and OH are so happy at the moment, we have time apart and it seemed to work
thinking about getting benji christened, just don't know where to start...tried to call the vicar a few times, but no answer
any tips/ideas??
ps hi shellm nice to see u on here
mwahs to you all xx

HI , your hair looks great hun, glad things are back on with OH.

benji will get there hun, regarding the christening. I had noah christened catholic in march.

We go church anyway when we can, i had to on a baptism course only about 1 hour.

Book a date with priest as soon as u have done that and have a date, start dishing out invites i used hallmark.com for them.

We hired a hall as their were about 75 people that came. So we done buffet and drinks.

I would go down to the church maybe at sunday mass.

Char

hey ladies thanks for the reply char
yeah we're having to visit the vicar this coming sat (morning) as it's fully booked until next year!!!! he said he'll see what he can do...think we have to do 6 weeks of sunday service...i'm church of england.
looking forward to it all...but theres a family divide (will post in PL) and it's causing friction already and i havent even booked it yet
another post in GL about what benji did today yippee
how is everyone?? xx

3 weeks on wednesday my baby is 1

eek!!

still no chompers, and taking wee steps between furniture but I'm in no hurry for her to walk yet

hope you get the christening sorted Lou! we had Arwyn christened at 8 weeks because we had a family dress to use and we were all about that age. My mum spoke to the minister before she was born to sort it out
