Ayrshire-SFC Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Had my first daddy daughter day. Mummy was away out for the day so I had the wee one all to myself. Was absolutely brilliant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkBlue62 Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 How'd did everyone's bairns deal with their jags? After hearing all the stories about the one year jags I'm quite pleased Mathew hasn't had any problems apart from being a bit grumpy at times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tears for a minute or two from the unexpected pain, then fine again. Didn't seem to suffer any real ill-effects. Bit heartbreaking to see the wee face crumple when the needle went in 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrshire-SFC Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Think our wee one has colic. Since getting home from the hospital she has been a wee angel. But she kept me and the misses up from 4am and kept screaming and crying until about 1.30 till we got her too sleep. Doctor didn't offer us much. We got some infacol and that seems to have done the job. She has slept for thirty minutes now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrshire-SFC Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 What age? Infacol helps a bit, get colonsinth granules from boots too. 10 days old just now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Woolshed Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Just had Sam in visiting the nursery he will be starting at in a couple of weeks when the holidays are over. Not feeling the hysteria the other half has, must be a Mother thing. The place seemed really good, plenty to keep him active [emoji106]????. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tout P'ti FC Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 What age? Infacol helps a bit, get colonsinth granules from boots too. +1 for the colocynthis granules. They can be a bit of a bugger to find, but work magic. Herbal remedy places like Nelsons or Napiers often have them. Boots should be able to order them in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrshire-SFC Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Boots in Falkirk always had them in. Bugger to get into the bairns mouth sometimes too but we felt they worked. Colic is a bit pissing in the wind though no wonder cure. I believe most if not all weans outgrow it around 12 weeks tho? Not like it lasts forever tho it feels like it +1 for the colocynthis granules. They can be a bit of a bugger to find, but work magic. Herbal remedy places like Nelsons or Napiers often have them. Boots should be able to order them in. A warm bath also She does enjoy the bath. That has been a short term help.We are heading up to paisley to register the birth on Wednesday so will swing via braehead and see if I can get the colocynthis granules at boots. Thanks for the advice guys 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightscamera Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Both of ours have been born in the pool and as everyone else says it really does seem to help with the pain and also seems to assist with stretching in a way that there's not a massive amount of bleeding etc (in our experience anyway). Don't get in it if you get the opportunity, I've seen what ends up floating about in those baths! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmothecat Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 My wife was interested in the pool before hand and had considered the idea of having a natural birth etc. As it happened it was all so quick she didn't have the option of a birthing pool nor an epidural. After doing the natural birth thing she is now absolutely certain that if we have another child she will grab any pain relief, epidurals etc that she's offered.Can't blame her personally. I find it a bit incredible that women going through that sort of extreme pain would even consider doing it without pain relief. She's still up for the pool if she gets the option though. On another note are any other dads in the position where they want another baby sooner rather than later? My wife and I both want at least one more, but she's talking years down the line for number two whereas I'm thinking that by this time next year I would like to be trying again. It's pretty much a reversal of before Beatrix was conceived, she wanted a baby sooner rather than later, I was wanting to wait. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightscamera Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 There's a 5 year gap between mine which seemed a great idea at the time with 1 being born while the other was starting school. Maybe a smaller gap would have been better but they also do enjoy playing together aswell, just maybe not as much as they would if it was a smaller gap. I would have another one but only because I would like a boy, don't think I could survive living in a house with 4 females! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Woolshed Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 We've gone straight in. Sam will be 16 months if all goes well with this pregnancy. Will be difficult but both very sure that this will be our last. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkBlue62 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 My 2nd, her third will be here in October. My son will just be 17 months old when she arrives. Her daughter will turn 5, 4 days before the new one is due. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
