Owen's first birthday was fantastic to say the least. He had loads of pressies but he enjoyed the wrapping paper the best lol

Happy First Birthday hug to Owen :-)

Owen is 1 today,,,,,, How fast his first year has gone, he now has 7 teeth and eats everything, loves fruit and cooked dinners lol and he is such a jolly little man, the light of our lives, happy birthday little man, we love you sooooo much.

Doctor pasted some grey stuff on Owen's belly button to disolve the remaining skin, so hopefully it should look "normal", his weight is now 9lb 15oz. We dipped his dummy in gravy again tonight and he couldn't get enough of it lol.

Fiona I can not describe the feeling of your first grandchild being born, it, for me, is the best thing ever. We have even been starting to plan Christmas, not done that for a few years lol. Even better, you get to spoil them rotten.

love

Hi Every one
Glad Baby Owen is well, hardly believe it's been 7 weeks since he arrived . never heard of tapeing coins to Belly buttons, is that done for a certain reason ?
I've got 3 1/2 weeks to go till my daughters baby is due, she is getting things together for the baby bag and her hospital bag, not sure how long she will be in after baby is born. maybe 1 night maybe more.
I was talking to MIL about hospital confinments, back in 1957 she had to stay in hospital for 2 weeks, first week totaly confined to bed,second week she was alowed up.

when I had daughter's no 1 &2 in 1980 & 87 I was in for 1 week.
now depending how mother and child is they are throwing (lol) you out after 1 night. I said she should stay in and get as much rest as she can

is it still done to tape a coin on the belly button? we did it with our two...LOL but that was quite a while ago now......

Hi Amanda oh yes he is beautiful, just had text off Rhiannon and he has filled his nappy and is now sleeping, hopefully bad belly gone.

I wish I had a remedy for the old " tummy demons "......... really I think it is just a time thing with most babies. My younget Grand daughter is 13 weeks old this Wednesday..........she is getting them less these days.

Baby Owen sounds lovely..........bless him : ))

Well Owen is 7 and a half weeks old, giggles and smiles galore and still very very cuddly. Anyone got any remedies for windy belly, he was so uncomfortable today, don't know if it is windy belly or where his belly button still hasn't dried up, it looks sore doctor has put him on anti biotics, bless him.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

PS He likes my gravy lol

Fiona that is great, please keep us informed, first grandchild is so exciting and the feeling is just out of this world, will be thinking of you and your family.

Love

Good evening all. Owen is 4 weeks and 2 days old, still so perfect. He has changed a lot since arriving and has put on just over 2lb ! He eats well, sleeps well and empties very well lol. Rhiannon and Ross are doing really well with him they are so natural. I can not thank you all enough for all your kind words, they all mean so much to all of us. Thank you my friends.

With love

Judie

Must be so quiet without Owen and family there now, Judy.

It's probably difficult to imagine a time when he wasn't around even though he's only a week old ..........!!!

Best of luck to Rhiannon and Ross - sure they'll do great and they are now a proper little family. Do they live very far away from you? Whatever, I'm sure will you be seeing them as often as you possibly can ....lol

Love
Mair

Owen is now a week old and still perfect. They went home today, ooh it feels too quiet, got so used to seeing him. Have complete confidence in Rhiannon and Ross's abilities. They are both naturals. So proud of them.

I had forgotten to look again :-)

Welcome to the new baby :-)
