Hi Bridee,

I am near Dubbo in Central West NSW. An assistant in the Physio department at the Dubbo Base Hopital fitted it. I don't have an appointment with an Orthatist until Feb next year. I am supposed to go back next week to have it checked, but I don't think I will make it till Thursday, so I will head back Monday. Our friend the physio has just called back to see how we (me!!) are doing, by the sounds of what he said it may not really have been fitted as well as it should have. Why do these things happen over the weekend??

She is asleep now. Natalie also has reflux, so I topped up her reflux medicine and gave her another feed and she seems to have settled. I also wonder if it not two full on days of Drs appointments and travelling and no good day sleeps.

Our other daughter Jill is a terrible sleeper even at two, so I think the combination of two kids not sleeping is maybe catching up on me and that I am not coping very well. Does anyone ever have moments where all you want to say is 'I want my mummy' and go home??? I am having one of those moments...!
