Our swimming lessons say something a little different.. it's "Daniel, ready... gooooo" and under he goes.]]> Tue, 13 May 2008 15:08:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17153&PID=382237&title=good-thing-she-wasnt-in-the-pool-yet#382237 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17153&PID=382220&title=good-thing-she-wasnt-in-the-pool-yet#382220 Author: DJ

We've been doing the Ready 1 2 3 thing with water on Anyssa's face since she was v. little and now she closes her eyes in anticipation. Can't wait to start swimming lessons - sounds like fun!

Yeah we say "Spencer 1 2 3". We got him ready by practising pouring water over his face to get him use to it and then the first dip they barely go in at all. Just remember to close your own mouth when they pass to you cos they will copy, they soon learn what its all about.]]> Mon, 12 May 2008 20:40:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17153&PID=381573&title=good-thing-she-wasnt-in-the-pool-yet#381573 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17153&PID=381560&title=good-thing-she-wasnt-in-the-pool-yet#381560 Author: NovemberMum

Thanks

We are on our second term of swimming, it is really cool when they start going under the water. Spencer gets all excited on the countdown and takes a big breath and squeezes his eyes shut really tight while kicking his legs like a loony. He spends the rest of the time squealing and generally making a lot of noise.]]> Mon, 12 May 2008 20:30:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17153&PID=381547&title=good-thing-she-wasnt-in-the-pool-yet#381547 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17153&PID=381544&title=good-thing-she-wasnt-in-the-pool-yet#381544 Author: NovemberMum

Megan had her 2nd swimming lesson today .one thing they ask is not to feed your baby an hour before so i give her a feed 1.5 hours before as I was sitting on the sit at the side of the pool she had a little spill and it had been over an hour since her feed now I know why they ask you not to feed your baby less than hour before their lesson.]]> Mon, 12 May 2008 20:14:38 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17153&PID=381516&title=good-thing-she-wasnt-in-the-pool-yet#381516
