Is that what he's going to be for Halloween? I still haven't figured out what Alyssa is going to be and I need to get Matthew's costume this weekend!

matthewsmom - 9.4 hours ago
Yeah - sometimes ALyssa prefers her thumb or her index finger. Her index finger is starting to get chapped - I may have to put some Lansinoh on it before bed to keep it moisturized...

 Too funny...I guess the work involved in getting him dressed in the suit tuckered him all out! LOL!

 Does he love the Avent binky? That's Alyssa's favorite. It took her awhile to get the hang of using it but now she likes them...

Message to all This may be interesting to some of you. Seema`s email is seema.modhvadia@rdftelevision.com

Hi there,

I work for a television production company based in the UK . We are currently making a documentary for ITV1 exploring the issues surrounding pregnancy and eating disorders. The film will be a thoughtful and insightful look into this extremely sensitive subject.

We’re in the research stage of our production and very keen to chat to women who are, or have been, pregnant whilst having an eating disorder.

If you’re interested in having a chat or finding out more about our documentary, it would be really great to hear from you. All communication would be in complete confidence.

You can contact me on: seema.modhvadia@rdftelevision.com

THat's too bad that you had to come home early. Did you at least get to have dinner? I know the wedding was at 5 and at my cousin's wedding (she got married at 5) we didn't eat dinner until about 7:30/8PM. Luca was a bit fussy when we were there but he took a brief catnap in his seat with the binky for maybe about 10-15 minutes. Do you think maybe he has a touch a reflux? Matthew used to scream and cry about ab hour after eating and pull his legs un into his chest. They ended up putting him on baby zantac and he was much better after that...
Glad to hear that last night went well. WE are trying to figure out how to wean Alyssa off the last bottle at 10:30/11. WE are thinking of giving her 2 oz at that time instead of 4 for a week to see how she does. If that goes well then we'll try to skip it altogether...I don't want to drop the feeding if it means we have to get up in the middle of the night! Have a good day!

Hey - I forgot to mention that I posted new pics on my page for you guys to check out when you get a chance...

matthewsmom - Sunday, 5 October
We stopped by Karen & Chuck's on the way home from my friend's baptism today. Luca is too cute - he seemed so small next to Alyssa (even though I know he's a big boy at over 8lbs). He was having his bottle when we got there and he was happy to be eating! Taylor wanted to show us how he was a good big brother and holds Luca...he was so proud of himself! Hope you guys have a good time at the wedding. TTYL!

 Alyssa had the same reaction to her first sponge bath but she LOVED the real bath...LOL!

matthewsmom - Saturday, 4 October
My cousin's wedding was at 5 too. You'll have a great time! Bummer about your Mom wanting to leave - maybe next time just your Dad can come by to see you and Luca so he doesn't have to leave so early...
Charlie is asleep on the couch right now and Alyssa is sleeping in her bouncy seat (has been since 8:45). Matthew went down at 8:30 and I am enjoying some quiet time surfing the web in peace. I need to wake her up for her last diaper change and feeding in about 20 minutes and then I am hitting the pillow myself! It's been a long week...TTYL

algmiss - Saturday, 4 October
You guys are so crazy to want more kids!!! LOL, but if it works for you guys than great.. but it definitely isn't going to work for me... I want to be done!!!!! I don't miss being pregnant, I was so happy not to be pregnant, since I had a hard time with my diet and blood pressure. Riley still gets up 1-2 sometimes 3 times a night. I am so exhausted. Hope you guys are well. I am so excited for the weekend. Working FT stinks!

I think it's so much easier to not get them used to warmed up bottles. Unfortunately at day care I have to send them all made up so they sit in a fridge. I asked them to warm them to room temp and not make them too warm because if she gets too used to that she won't take a room temp bottle. It's easier when we are out and about with Matthew if she takes a room temp bottle. I just switched her to the medium flow nipple becuase she was falling asleep while eating with the slow flow nipples. Is Luca using the silicone or the latex nipples? Have fun with your parents tonight. We are just going home to kick back and maybe do a family movie night. Matthew loves popcorn! I had a dress that I bought a few years ago (the little black dress) but I had to buy super control top pantyhose becuase I still have a bit of excess around the middle Oh well....all in good time, right? What time is the wedding tomorrow?

matthewsmom - Friday, 3 October
You mentioned that he was screaming until 10:30...is he colicky? Lucky you to get a night off! You'll be spoiled for a night and then...back to reality It sounds like he's doing good in the middle of the night...3 hours is good for his age. Is he doing room temp bottles or are you heating them up in the middle of the night? I keep a bottle with 4 oz of water in it and a little container with 2 scoops of formula in it in case she squaks in the middle of the night...that way it's not freezing cold from the fridge (not that we've had to use it in a few weeks...knock on wood). Have a great time at the wedding tomorrow - the weather will be cool but nice - no rain. TTYL!

Hey There! What are the kiddies dressing up as for Halloween??? Matthew wants to be Buzz Lightyear and I haven't figured out what to dress Alyssa up as yet...

the4ofus - Thursday, 2 October
yea i didn't even try to breastfed with kolby, i took him straight to bottles, it was great. I have been able to enjoy this baby much more then my first, because the first 3 weeks I was strung out. and you are right, the dads can help. Which is super!!! I am feeling really well, I didn't tear at all with this one, so I didn't have any stiches at all. I got my epidural later in my labor, so I was really numb for the delivery and I couldn't go to the bathroom on my own for a while, which stunk, because I had to have like 4 cathdears (sp) before I got things worked out. It was frustrating and really hurt, I had to tell my doc to STOP! I am with you, ready for my 6 weeks to be up so I can go back to work and get back to action with my hubby. I feel so bad, because he is so needed that attention and I can't really help too much. You know!! I am with you, I need to be on some BC before I can do anything, no more babies for us. Take care and keep in touch!

*Baby-Mine* - Wednesday, 1 October
hey ladies! just had to hop on here real quick, i know i havent been on in a while but i just wanted to let you all know i had my baby!!! she was born Sept. 22nd at 8:10 am via C/S. She was 7lbs 4 oz 19 in long. thank u for the well wishes we're both doing great, just trying to survive breast feeding i'll post pics up asap! good luck to all of u!

matthewsmom - Wednesday, 1 October
I think that's awesome that he's going 3-4 hours at a time. At that age I was fighting to get Alyssa to go 3 hours (we were nursing). Once we went to all formula she was doing 3 hours during the day. She still eats every 3 hours during the day now but she sleeps through the night (with a final bottle between 10-11) until almost 7 now so I can't complain...I'd rather that she get her calories in during the day than at night! Oh the belly! I still can't get rid of the little extra skin there. I swear I'll have it for the rest of my life (no biggie since I don't wear bikinis or belly baring shirts anyways). My arms are terrible - I really need to do some toning there but hey...no short sleeves until next spring so I've got time, right??? I can't believe how fast the time is flying...wait until you get back to work! The evenings fly by and the weeks go by in a blink. It'll be Christmas before you know it...TTYL!

matthewsmom - Wednesday, 1 October
 Ahh...I miss that days when my little boy would let me snuggle up close with him...now I practically have to bribe him to get him to slow down long enough to get a hug! LOL!

matthewsmom - Wednesday, 1 October
 What a big boy...I'm having a hard time deciding who he looks the most like...he's changing so much so fast...it will be amazing to see the three of them at Christmas together!

matthewsmom - Wednesday, 1 October
 Wow...looks like you have lots of feeding help!

matthewsmom - Wednesday, 1 October
 Too cute!

algmiss - Wednesday, 1 October
Oh I am so glad you are doing well. I was worried about you being so tired and alone! Anyway, glad he is doing so well. I could NEVER get Riley on a schedule, but she fell into one eventually within a month or so. As soon as she knew day from night she started to have some consistancies in her day. She is pretty clockwork now, but it wasn't cause I was able to make her that way. I might have spoiled her a bit. She is finally sleeping AGAIN through the night. She was up a lot the first few weeks that I started back to work. But she is doing well and sometimes gets up around 5am, but often sleeps through till about 6am. Hope your well and enjoying your time with Luca... it goes way too fast. I don't even remember being on maternity leave anymore... its a blur.
TTYL

the4ofus - Wednesday, 1 October
Hello!! Sorry for the slow response, Kolby is great!! I am so glad Luca and Taylor are doing good for you. I hope you get Luca's schedule figured out, it is so hard. Are you breastfeeding?? I breastfed with mak for the first 3 weeks, and kolby went straight to bottles, it has been so much more of a pleasure. and so much easier to work with. take care, hang in there and don't stress as hard as that may not be to do. have a great day...and keep in touch!! MUAH!! Lots of love and patience your way, being a mom is a hard job, but remember you are GREAT at it!!

matthewsmom - Tuesday, 30 September
It's fun to go visiting with the baby . It gets you out of the house and lets you interact with some adults! It's nice when they move into the crib...it starts to get you back on the path to "normal" or rather your "new normal". Alyssa can make it through the night as long as she gets her last bottle between 10 and 11. She'll usually last until 6:45 or 7 in the morning. YAY! THat's awesome about fitting into the old jeans...yippee!!! TTYL

matthewsmom - Monday, 29 September
Hey There! Just checking in to see how you guys are doing? Is Luca showing any signs of a schedule emerging? How's Taylor...is he back to school this week? Are you getting psyched for the wedding this weekend? We had such a good time on Friday night. It was so great to get out without the kids and have fun as adults!!! TTYL!
