I used to lay Cole on my knee and swish my legs from side to side. He hated being on his tummy but didn't mind it that way x

Hope it helps!

A little while ago someone asked about Christmas presents. Well I cannot recommend this enough! It's brilliant and she loves it. The teapot sings different songs depending what setting you put it on and makes different noises. It's a shame it's a bit girly IMO but if I had a boy I would get it for him too! It's ace. A v popular toy in our house

If she doesn't like it try laying her on your chest (or hubbies) and you lay back... Get some sneaky cuddles in while she's having tummy time
Then progress to over the knee.. then on the floor (on a mat/blanket)... And only do say a minute at first and build it up... it'll build her head control too.. Éabha hated it to begin with and would cry almost as soon as I lay her down.. but I'd get down on the floor with her and do it too.. helped a little.. And as I say I built it up from a minute

They have this in yellow and red in Smyths Toys (toys.ie) that would OK for boys too

Hey ladies

Has anyone suffered from thrush since having their baby? I had it once or twice before being pregnant but that was over say 6 year period. Since having baby in feb I have had about 3 or 4 times. Is this normal? Everything feels tender after DTD too. Wondering if I need to go to the dr.

Go and see your dr, explain that it is recurrent you probably need fluconazole to treat it and Paul May need treatment to (this could be why it keeps coming back), reducing yeast in your diet can help along with the usual, mild soaps, cotton underwear etc. x

Yeah I kept getting it quite a lot during pregnancy, went to docs as got fedup and they said to treat us both as even though he's not got signs of it, he could still have it and then passing to me again. Xx

Apparently by 6 weeks their eyes are the colour they will be....
Éabha's have stayed blue although they are lighter than they were... (I know they look quite dark in pics.. but they're not) x

 

[ksmiuk]

If that's the case Ben has eyes the colour of a swamp bluey, greenly grey with brown in the middle. Unusual that's for sure! Xx

I dunno how true it is.. I know Éabha's eyes continued to get lighter the older she got. Prob settled at more like 6 months...
