Melanie-how cute!
Does anyone else think that those cute outfits, while very cute, are a PITA to work with all the snaps and zippers and stuff, especially when diaper changing? At night we opt for those sleep gowns (easy access for diapers) and only put on the cute outfits for trips out to the Dr. or whatever. Sometimes it is just a swaddle cause I really hate those baby snaps! They are so hard to snap and unsnap. Here are some pics from Wyatt's first bath...

Love the pictures girls! Isn't it amazing how much the change in such a short period of time?
Jen, I do think the outfits are a PITA. We have been sticking to sleepers with snaps or zippers. I have the gowns but have not used them. For some reason I have it in my head that he'll be cold even though I have blankets and stuff on him. The snaps are a pain but I'm finding that those are the easiest to put on him- especially in the middle of the night. The ones with the zipper, you have to really bend his right leg up to get it into the leg of the sleeper- anyone else finding this? How's everyone doing in the sleep department? I'm still BFing and I think I actually got almost 6 hours last night! They say baby's weight has a lot to do with it and my little guy is definitely putting it on. Will try to post some updated pics.

Is everyone BF? I am but need to find a formula he does good on b/c I have to go back to work in about 2wks and need a formula just in case I'm unable to BF when I return to work. It is so hard. Just tryed soy and he cryed after about 12 hrs on it with so much gas. My poor lil man was so unhappy. Next we will try gentel ease.

congratulations to all of the new mommies!! i love all of the pics! i agree, the outfits are a PITA but so cute!
Greyson didn't need surgery this week afterall. he had another head ultrasound done on mon. and nothing had really changed so his neuro said that there was no need for a shunt this week! yay! he will still have to have weekly head ultrasounds for a few months and then monthly for a year, but we are praying that he can be one of the lucky ones with spina bifida that won't need one! anyway i just wanted to say congrats to everyone and welcome to all of these babies!!

Hey everyone,
sorry I've been MIA, I haven't had much time to come and sit at the computer, most of my time is spent doing stuff around the house when I don't have Nicholas. The pictures are soooooo cute!!! I'm not BF anymore, I kinda gave up! Nicholas just wasn't getting enough in 30 minutes then I would end of having to bottle feed on top of it, so now I pump and give it to him. The only problem is is that he is swallowing ALOT of air......I don't know what to do!! We are using the similac in the blue can for formula, he is a little gassy but not too bad. I wish I could keep up like I use to on here I really do miss everyone. Hopefully I will have more time or manage my time a little better lol......... I'm still getting up every 3 hours at night, but I'm thankful for the 3 hour stretch!!!! I hope everyone is doing good, Leigh I'm so glad to hear that Greyson is doing well.......

Sorry I've been MIA too. Everyone's babies are just adorable! We have had some adapting issues with our son that we just adopted but I think we are at the tail end of it and he is doing great! Calvin is the sweetest baby and is eating like crazy.
We always had to do formula and BF but I only pumped about 1 oz so I stopped and we are doing only formula now. Here are some of our pictures.

Elizabeth-how old are your adopted sons? They play together well. Your boys are all cute
Leigh-fantastic news on Greyson! I hope he never needs surgery! Jessica-the twins are adorable! Denise-I had the problem with the air with bottle feeding. I was using the Born Free bottles, then the LC switched us to these tiny bottles that they had in the hospital with slow flow nipples. Didn't work. I am now BF'ing Wyatt and he is spitting up a lot. I think I am over feeding him. Sometimes he goes balastic and no one can calm him so I give him a boob. And he eats and eats and eats! He is a bad burper (or I am just terrible at it) and then gives me back what he ate. Sigh... I do think holding them upright after a meal is probably the best. After Wyatt ate this last time I stuck him in the Baby Bjorn (great product btw) and he fell asleep. You might want to try that.

Jen- Vincent is 4 and Joseph is 18 months. They are typical brothers now. One moment they are playing great together and the next they have each other in a choke hold lol. They have come a long way in just a couple of weeks. It's been a huge change for everyone.
