Well everyone is spouse and dogs. I woke a while ago and can't sleep so here I be, Dogs get restless when mommy moves about. I am getting another jack Russell puppy in about 8 weeks. they were born this week and I am going to pick her out this weekend. No real reason for another baby except I can. I love my little family and I am home with them except for appointments. They are really a good family to keep me company. So not sleeping is probably what Rainbowz is doing. I bet she is enjoying it more though. Those are magical days. Anyone else up? Poo!

[sujunew]

well, I'm up but nearly on my way to bed- just procrastinating as usual!!! Don't want to have to do dishes and tidy house, grrrr.
I actually really envy those ppl who go home with their new borns and enjoy it (edit: I am typing this in a light-hearted way!! Congratulations to every mother out there, parenting is a tough job. I did enjoy it, I just didn't have the 'typical' experiences that most families have!). I never had 1 pegnancy like that- 1st my daughter was 3 months old before she got home; my son....; and my 2nd daughter was 2weeks old and wouldn't breast feed, then went back into hospital for 4 months with a brain bleed and other issues. So I really don't know what it is like with a 'normal' baby at home!!!
(Like I said, I am procrastinating about going to bed so will write about anything just to avoid it lololol)

I am sorry about your children's beginnings. I hope they are well now where ever they are. Just go to bed without tidying. It will be there in the a.m.

(((((wisewoman))))) there's never anyone here in the middle of our night either

(((((sujunew))))) we know what you are saying there

[Perna]

My cats wander down with me too instead of being in the bedroom. They think something interesting is going to happen but I can't imagine what! LOL. I've been up since about 4:45 but guess I'll wander back to bed here for a few minutes/hours until we decide to go out in 4 hours.

[Zorah]

when we go on 'puter, the cats like to type too

they don't care if it's the middle of the night, but they do tend to make poor stupid 'puter crash !!!!!!

they like to take screenshots, HUNDREDS of screenshots, then 'puter crashes

aww wisewoman I'm sorry I wasn't online to keep you company.. I was probably up feeding the baby.

I am quite a night owl myself so I know how you feel

[wisewoman]

Hey Rainbowz, and there I was saying you were up with the baby. How is the little guy?

Every baby is different and everyone of them special. I have heard of babies who seemed perfect during infancy and a wholly terror come toddler times lol. I have heard of babies who were colicky but calmer as they got older. Every experience in parenting is a memorable one, but, the agony comes when they move out. Letting them go is not as easy as we think it will be. lol.

Bubs is good, we were to the doctor today and hes lost a bit more weight and is a bit jaundiced but they say not to worry about it yet. they are going to run bloodwork monday to be sure hes totally ok where I was RH negative.

otherwise hes eating, sleeping, and cuddling.

{{{{{bowzzie}}}}} & {{{{{Jeremy}}}}}

lots of babies have jaundice early & they all lose weight in the first few days after birth.

Is Jeremy Rh+ ? It should be fine now, anyway, they are very good with this now. The main danger is before the birth.

((((((((rain)))))))))
Try not to worry I am RH negative.too
Both my kids are ok
Babys get jauntice

give the baby a hug
muffy

what does RH- mean?

[Zorah]

it's a blood group thing Court, ya know they say for example you are A+, like us, or B-, or whatever.
Positive rhesus factor is much more common & it can cause problems if the rhesus factors of mother & baby differ.

But they give you shots to protect the baby.............
Also one after having the baby for future births
If i am remembering this correct

Hmm, I know he is B+ and I am B- but yes I have had both shots, one before and one right after, so hopefully that does the trick.

((((court))))

[wisewoman]

I am RH- as well. I had no problems. A little jaundice is quite normal for many babies. I bet he is a joy.

[Zorah]

we are all here awake, lolol

[wisewoman]

Here I am again. i seem to sleep till 12:30 or 1:00 and stay awake a few hours. It is getting old. Peace to all who have sleep problems.

[confusedgurl08]

i am hear too, I can't sleep and haven't really slept for more than 2 hours a night or not at all for the past couple of weeks. sometimes i am tired, and just can't sleep and other times i am not tired.

((((((Rainbowzz)))))) congrats on your baby boy!!!!! what joy you must be feeling!!!!!

[wisewoman]

Hear I am a little later then usual. I am awake after dreaming I just finally left work but showed up early for a party. I also went into this little fictional bathroom and was sitting on the toilet when I noticed three men around corners working on stuff in the bathroom as I sat there doing bathroom business. That bathroom dream is so often.
