Beautiful pic BexD! And SoHappy 5-6 hours wow so lucky haha.
My parents came to stay last night, and after I fed midnight feed mum fed my expressed milk to baby when he woke around 4:30am and went until 8am!! Was so good to get a good sleep - only thing was one of my boobs was soooo full it hurt and I couldn't sleep in and had to get up to express it at 7am. 
Hope everyone is well and happy. 1 month old today!! Can't really believe what I was doing at this time a month ago. Funny thing is, mum and I are both here today and a month ago it was just us when I was concentrating through contractions in the lounge too!

haha, breathing and concentrating while having contractions were hard, lucky my mum and hubby were there to remind me...
We are having a second growth spurt so not much sleep here. She loves to lie in her bassinet and just stare out the window.
how is everyone else?

Hi everyone,
This is quite delayed as I am just getting to know this website.
There seems to be a bit of a gap for August 6 babies so will add to it. Hazel Grace was born this day 8lbs 3oz after being induced 14 days past due date.
4 weeks on and we are just loving her! she is the most amazing thing I have ever done and just can't get enough of her even when she wont sleep.
Congrats to all other August / Sept births
xx

Hey Inspired_Jurney, we have babies sharing the same birthday!! However I was only 2 days over! 14 days wow - your bubs sure was hanging in there! It is pretty amazing isn't it - the best thing I have done in my life for sure!!
Alex is growing well, last week he was 9lb 13, so 2 pounds over birthweight. Must be over 10lb now!! 5 weeks tomorrow! Plunket visit this week, so looking forward to that too!

Hey everyone
Sorry I haven't been on here for so long but keep reading about everyone. Kailey was born on 26th July weighing 6pounds 12 oz it's amazing how everyone was either early or late doesn't look like anyone went on their edd.
We are good, have colic and reflux but we are surviving and Gaviscon is our life saver. she is way happier. You forget the nightmare times when she smiles and chats away at you.
Hope everyone else is going well
Amy

Yep still going well here too. Infacol is my lifesaver - we have a very spilly and windy boy but otherwise all is good. We are getting around 6-7 hours a night followed by 2-3 hours. I can cope with that. We get out of the house most days and enjoy our time together. Have left Alex with his dad for one evening so far and went to a cloth nappy workshop. Was fun! Anyway, hope all is well! Can't believe he is 9 weeks old! Time is going by so quick and he is even starting to giggle and cackle away at me with his huge gummy smiles!

Hi all, been a while since i've been on here.. glad to hear things are going well for the 2 of you who've posted!  i'm a bit sad that facebook has hijacked our forum.  cest la vie! Grace is doing well - 10lbs now (4.5kg) and had been sleeping 6-8hrs for the first block of the night since about 4weeks old. Praise the Lord! Better than that, she's started going to sleep between 9-10pm the last week (was between 11-12 previously), which means I actually have some hope of getting enough sleep to stay sane as well. last couple of nights she did 9hrs, then another 2hours & i got most of that too. AWESOME. She doesn't sleep during the day much though... 1 or 2 hours in the afternoon, & a few other short kips (10-20min) here and there. Quite happy while she's awake - likes checking out what's going on (usually quite a bit with DS charging around). Have been doing pretty well re:PND (had it with DS, on the lookout this time!) - had a couple of bad days last week, but have had a good weekend. Feeling really stoked that she's started accepting expressed milk from a bottle over the last couple of days, which will give me a wee bit of space each day (this was SUCH a lifesaver with DS). Did i mention that she's a red head? gorgeous colour, but definitely red...  surprises me everytime i see it, even after 7weeks!! anyway, that's quite enough from me - hope all continues to go well for you all! kia kaha e hoa!

Wow, i keep forgetting about this thread! How is everyone coping with there new bundles of joy?
Im in love with my Gorgeous Elise. Just to recap since i wasnt a frequent poster in here, she was born 3rd August, so almost 11 weeks old now, and boy has it flown by quick! Think she might even be showing signs of teething.
Anyway, im going to read through the last few pages in here to have a wee catch up :)
Hope everyone is well.

Hello all. It's been awhile since I've visited the forum. Shaiyan is now 9 weeks old and is over 6 kg in weight!! She's only bottle feed now as my milk never came out properly. She is a happy baby, sleeping between 6-7 hrs stretch which am hoping will soon be longer as I am due to go back to work beginning of Nov! Not looking forward to it and am sure I will be missing her heaps. Hope all is well and will post so now again

Thanks BexD, not sure how you know tho?
Keep meaning to post but not really sure what to say .
We lst Jackson to E Coli Meningitis in the 17th oct . Such a horrible illness . The medical team at both southland hospital and Starship did everything humanly possible but nothing worked . Feeling very empty . But everyone has been amazingly supportive .

best ever sleep: 9:30pm til 9:15am !!! awesome! we've just instigated a routine in the last couple of weeks, after too many weeks of Grace going to bed between 11-12pm!  new routine is bed between 9-10pm, WAY more civilised & so much better for me (plus she sleeps longer: 10-11hrs instead of 8-9...ha!). it can mean that if she sleeps in the sling, i don't get any baby-free time before bed though... cos she'll only sleep once! right, time to get dressed & go & drag my kids round the vege market (joy!) happy saturday!

Hi "Guest" Yes, I think we did have at least one prem baby in our group, but they're all on Facebook (sorry). You could try PMing Lucky Red perhaps? How are you finding it with 2? Must be stressful having a premmie & a toddler (it's stressful enough having one or the other!!).
