Barb - that's what I am afraid of! I don't want Gabby to be one of those kids that can only be consoled or helped by Mum. Those sort of kids drive me batty at the best of times. So far she's pretty good - she'll be held by anyone but I hear that can all change at 6 months. LOL - yes... hopefully we will all be better with our second baby. That must be why first-borns are always screwed up :boggle: (I can say that cos I am one ).

Nell - of course! You are really getting thrown in the deep end soon, hey? I in a way, I wish I could do something similar - I tend to cope better when I am just forced to do it, kwim? Still... I think Matty will be just fine. So, he will be dressed really weird for a few days of the week - it can only make him stronger, right??
