Infants - 2009

Just opened a thread for infants delivered in 2009. I have been requesting for a Baby club this is not happening.

Interested mommies can join me!

My baby sat up yesterday and then lost balance and fell aaaaaaaaaaah. I take her down in the evenings. DD babbles a bit, trying to crawl. What are your schedules? What do you do let me know?

Lynette, I am here in the club.

Thanks Rekha. How is your LO? Don't worry you will get over all the colic and fusses in about three months.

Keep talking to your LO it helps whatever you feel look into her eyes and talk this is what my mother used to tell me. Now my DD has become my best friend. I talk to her like I am talking to any of my friends. Dance in front of her and what not. I had given some bonding tips. Keep moving your fingers around her face her hands your DD will feel good. Look into her eyes. Do you sing some lullabies for her. What do you do let me know. May be I can get back in your shoes and try to recollect what I did. Its been five and half months for my DD, I didn't even realise how time passed.

I was very happy yesterday to see my LO sit up. Now she is trying to crawl just wanted to share the joy.

Lee, I am in the club too.
All - You would have heard the story of my DD in the the other threads.
I am right now trying to adjust to her feed-sleep schedules. Hoping things will get better for both of us soon.

Hi Lynette,

Let me also join the club of 2009 mommies. Mine is a lovely angel "Sahana", hyperactive always...smiles a lot to mesmerise me. She needs me by her side whenever she is awake and would love to see the way her face lifts whenver she sees me after a small break. She is bit on the heavier side...so she only attempts to roll on one side.. it is so cuteeeeeeeee to luk at her little bum at work....ummmmmaaaa to that.

This is all about my LO.

Hi suman..hang in there...after 3 months..things would fall into places.

Hi Anithaa...why don't you join the club? I m now in chennai and dont have any plans to go back. HOw is Nilu doing? Hope to meet you once the weather is good.

Bye all,

Luv,
sangi

BTW, Lynette..what have you named her?? She is so cute..

Wow, you have a beautiful baby. How old is she?

My son is almost 5 months old. He is babbling just a little bit. He also rolls from tummy to back, but not from front to tummy. He is not even close to crawling, although he scoots around on his back quite a bit. However, I am not complaining because I am not ready to run after him just yet!

i m so in lynette!, at last a refreshing tread as opposed to "LO not sleeping"! lol

Hi Rekha, Malyatha, Suman, Sanarun,

Thanks for joining me.

Sahana your daughter is adorable. Sahana is a nice name and means melody I am sure by your mail you are having a ball of a time together.

May I request all to please keep your baby tickers on. It becomes difficult for me to know the age of the baby though not needed but helps at times. Also if you can mention your baby birth dates.

To All
Are you maintaining a baby record book. I have one, it is very helpful. I have taken her footprints and handprints in the second week after her birth. Now I record everything in the book right from her first smile to first roll. Anything additional like when I first pierced her ear I make a note on the last blank page. I plan to give it to her someday, once she grows up. My DH captures small videos of her may be crying, laughing, crawling may be we can show it to her some day.

BTW my baby's name is Lenora which means Light in greek. My baby's DOB is 15.05.09.

About my baby's activities
L got up @ 7 am and played for a while and then gave her a bath @ 8 am and then her bf. I put her on the bedding today. Now that she sits up I have moved her from the quilt to a bedding surrounded by pillows for better protection. I found her very comfortable on the bedding and she sat for around 10 mins today and then fell down boom L tries to crawl and tries to go on fours. You know what I see that Dabur tail is doing wonders on her. I massage her during the nights and I find the oil good. I am seeing the difference. After about 9.30 am found her sleeping I left for office @ 11 am.

DD nose was a bit stuffy yesterday and took her to the doc. He said everything is fine. Gave iron tonic for DD. One more week to go to start my DD on all the semi solids may be it is going to increase my work but anything for my DD what say
I take my DD down in the park @ 6.30 pm and get her home @ 7.15 pm by then she sleeps for half an hour. Once she wakes up I sing her some nursery rhymes do some sounds of animals, she actually likes all these and laughs merrily. By 10 pm she is off to sleep. Then I catch some serials, have dinner and wind off to bed.

About DH
DH has gone to Chennai, will come back in a week. Will be managing with the maid. My mother might join us. DH is not around this weekend we may be at home only.

Suman, Rekha,

I was just remembering - I used to give a sponge bath at nights and then swaddle and this helped in putting DD to sleep. Even now I do the same. My DD goes to sleep @ 9.30 pm max to max 10 pm. Also early in the morning when DD was not sleeping I use to play some holy hymns and DD used to like them.

After about three months you can buy some rattling toys and teethers. This is the time when most of the things go in the mouth.

Hang on till about three months you will get to know the difference.

Let me know how all of you manage.

I missed this thread... Lynette, count me in..
