Nellylou -2 stone to go! I can do it with SW

[Nellylou]

Seth burps like a champ now but it was hard getting wind out of him in the early days. We found tummy massage, spinning his legs and burping him by sitting him on your lap and bending him forwards really helped! I think they just get better at bringing up wind as they get older, now I just need to get him upright and he belches like a sailor lol xxx

Bella is just such a wriggler I struggle to hold her still when I try to burp her like that, any tips?
Ahhh Bless Seth burping away xx

So is Oliver, wriggles and fidget so much but his burps seem to be coming more easily now. I tend to put him over my shoulder. Doesn't always work though. X

Other than a vice like grip, not really! It's hard to do but gets easier as their head control gets better. I balance Seth against my feeding pillow when I do it and it seems to work ok? I would try sitting him on my knee and if that didn't work I'd put him on my shoulder. One of the methods would usually work in the end xxx

Urghhhh where to start! I have been comfort eating to the max, literally shovelling food in to my mouth. My sister had her baby boy on Friday and he was very poorly he inhaled a lot of meconium as he was being born and was in a critical condition on life support, so devastating.
Thank fully Little man is doing well and we are really hopeful for a full recovery - he isn't awake yet but is now breathing on his own and is responding to voices and touch <3

Poor Bella has a cold and is very sniffly, she's still sleeping and eating but her little nose is so blocked, makes me sad.

Decided I need to get back on plan ASAP so as of tmrw I'm on it (probably will start logging my cals until I'm ready to deal with slimming world) as I don't feel I have enough time to give it me all and get creative with meals etc.

Aw, lovely Bella pic! So glad little boy is doing well, enjoy your visit with him. Food looks good too, I'm planning to start logging on MFP from today so see you there xxx

 

[lsf666]

Bella looks lovely x

 

[Nellylou]

Today started with chocolate, have put it on MFP and it has come out at just less than 500 cals and I didn't have breakfast, I know this isn't healthy but I was tired and craving sugar - hopefully I can pull it back as its only day 2!

Bella slept relatively well last night, we went to bed at 10.00 she was up for a feed at midnight, 3am and 6.40 we then slept in till 10.30! She has been wide awake since last feed and entertaining herself on her play mat so I've managed to get some tidying done (only as Charles auntie is visiting later or to be honest I wouldn't have bothered!!)

(B) 9 chunks of cadburys whole nut and 5 Jaffa cakes :-o

(L) ryvita and laughing cow blue cheese
Activia pear yog
2 cups of tea

(D) potato bake

(S) 2 flake bars and 2 dark chocolate bars :/

 

[Nellylou]

Yesterday was a write off, ate a lot of chocolate :/
Will try harder today!

(B) small dark chocolate bar and Danio yoghurt

(L) warburtons thins x2 with bacon and ketchup

(D) tlc Cumberland sausages, roast pots, mixed veg and gravy

 

[missy1978]

I was all about the cake and choc yesterday too - it's so hard! I think we're in the same place tbh, good meals but terrible snacks :/

Bella is lovely! Bless her, she's changed so much already, it's crazy how quick they grow xxx

 

[babytreetrunk89]
