    Apparently in about 7 months I will be a qualified midwife - yikes!

    Thanks girls!

    Mbear - yes he does have a teddy and a dummy at bed time, and he is fine with that! I am beginning to wonder if it is just seperation or possibly frustration cause he can see his big brother and I walking around etc.

    I have changed his routine the last couple of days, and he doesn't seem to be doing it as much - particularly in the high chair. Instead of putting him down when he is showing tired signs, I have held him out till a couple of hours later - and then he is sleeping longer. I had a very rigid routine with DS 1 and it worked really well for us, but thought I would just go with the flow for No 2, but that has not been working, so back to the routine that worked in the past and so far so good! Not too much screaming tonight!

    On the positive it is actually making me start to appreciate DS 1 as his behaviour is starting to improve so I am trying to be really concious of praising him as much as possible even when DS 2 is playing up!
