7 weeks already


How time flies when your having fun, Tilly has even been on her first holiday to Kingscliff - which she slept through.


Poor Tilly had a rough first couple of weeks with visits from Lactation Consultants and trips to the hospital to see Paediatricians. After a week of constant screaming it turns out that Tilly is lactose intolerant, mummy is now off dairy and within 48hrs Tilly was like a brand new baby. She still has a few belly upsets every now and then but nothing like the screaming of the first weeks.


Mummy is calling our new baby Amazing Tilly. Unlike her big sister, if Tilly is tired she can just be put straight into the cot and left to go to sleep all on her own. It took us a few weeks to work this out though, as Tilly was crying we were trying to console her (like we did for Ruby) and she was getting more and more frustrated in our arms, in the end we put her down. She stopped crying and closed her eyes.


The last few weeks Tilly has started to smile at us and started making cooing noises when she sees us. She looks around the room for you and watches everything her big sister does - this could be a safety reflex!


Tilly has also started chewing on her hand the last few days.....mummy thinks she is going crazy or could be just paranoid after Ruby started teething so early but there looks to be teeth in her gums already......is this possible?????


And Tilly seems to be loosing her beautiful hair. Mummy keeps finding strands, although Tilly is quite partial to pulling on her own hair for some strange reason, so maybe it could just be the ones she has pulled out.
