Hello! I'm happy to report that Caden spent part of the night in his crib! He slept from 9:30-11:30, 2-4, then from 5-5:45. That was really going above and beyond for him, so I'm not expecting a repeat performance for tonight, but we'll try. We went for a stroller ride today--only about his...

Elliemom-Did you do just one vaccination then every 30 days? I'm thinking about eliminating ones such as the flu shot and rotovirus, as well as not continuing with the HepB, but I need to do more research. I'm still mad at the hospital for non-chalantly asking me if I wanted my son to get...

I know that immunizations can be a highly controversial topic, and I'm not looking to debate the pros/cons here. We know that we are going to vaccinate--it's just a matter of whether we are going to do EVERY vaccination and whether we use an alternative, more spread out or delayed schedule...

Kate--busy day...Enjoy all your parties! Stephanie--sorry to hear about the bad start to your day. I hope it gets better --- I can't wait until Caden is older and I can bring him trick or treating. I have him in a clown costume today, but I'm not sure that anyone will see him other than DH...

Caden is FINALLY taking a nap. He was fighting it all morning and was crying at the top of his lungs before we met DH for lunch at Chipotle. Once we walked in the restaurant, he was immediately peaceful and fell asleep! He must like the loud noise. I can hear his little noises though, so I'm...

Good Thursday morning everyone! Kristan-Happy belated birthday to Gus! Kate-I've been getting quotes on having my house cleaned e/o week once I go back to work. I'm looking for just the basics (kitchen, bathroom, vacuum, dust), and it looks like it's about $70/cleaning. Is that the going...

Since Caden was born, it's been nearly impossible for us to get him to sleep in his crib, despite trying nearly every trick in the book (sleep positioner, breast milk on a shirt, inclined bed, white noise, etc). He will occasionally nap alone on the couch. He hates the swing and isn't a fan of...

Interesting timing! My DH just "discovered" this last week. My 6wk old LOVES to have us bounce him on the ball. The motion gets him to sleep...if only we could keep him to sleep when we get off the ball. He is such a light sleeper. Great advice and thanks for sharing with others!

oops..I had posted on Monday's thread earlier this AM. Happy belated birthday, Kate!! Wow, what a great gift from DH! Stephanie--I also started giving Caden his gas drops directly. My DH thinks that if I put the drops in the formula, the drops will work on killing the bubbles in the...

Kristan-LOL on the "crab-assing"! Never knew there were so many gassy babies...maybe we should rename our check-in to something gas-related..HA! JJ Stephanie-Sorry you're feeling down about your post-partum body. That's great that your hubby is being supportive, but I agree, they don't...

Sounds like everyone had a busy weekend. Jen, sorry to hear about Aidan being so gassy and the rough night it caused. Caden is SO gassy as well. I have been giving him gas drops, and that has helped considerably. I'm breastfeeding, but also supplementing with formula due to my low supply. I...

Beautiful pics...congrats!!

Just browsed through Thursday's post. Caden is sitting in his bouncy, which is always short-lived, so I better make this quick. When I have some extra time, I need to study up on everyone! I'm still struggling with overnights with Caden. He's a little over 5 weeks, and has an awful time...

Congratulations on your pregnancy. I ate SO horribly during my first trimester. I ate homemade special k bars, bagels, ice cream, chocolate chips, etc almost daily. I also remember coming here for support since I felt so horrible about it! My doctor told me to just eat what I could. I was sick...

Sorry I'm so late on finding out the news. Congrats!!! Wow, Julia has quite the birth story. I am in absolute awe of you women who deliver without an epidural. After hours and hours of labor and wicked contractions, I broke down and got my "happy meds" at 7cm. Congrats again!

Congrats!!! Since having my LO, I know all too well about typing one-handed! :)

I never posted on the TTC/Preg check-ins, but do you have room for another on the post-partum? It may take me awhile to get up to speed on the lives of everyone, but I hope to have more time to spend on cathe.com and would love to join the group! About me: Lisa, age 27, married to Nick 1...

Congrats!! What a cutie!

Thank you all for your support and advice! Caden can now handle about 20minutes in the bouncy, if he's in a deep sleep. Otherwise, he's been getting a lot of cuddling from his proud mom and dad. Thanks again! lisa

hope this attachment works..will type more when i have more than one hand free!
