Hi again,

I will definatley have a read through that forum, thanks for that.

Mayson eats her 3 meals a day no worries and has 4 bottles, the bottles created a whole new load of problems though, she has been on normal formula, then changed to reflux at my dr's suggestion, then back to normal at my paediatricians suggestion, then after a week of throwing up and sleeping worse than ever I put her back on reflux and NOW the clinic is suggesting we try some milk sensitive formula (HA) which I have been doing for 2 weeks now and I am not sure what I think of it yet, cartainley no immediate results. Sorry to bore you with that long tale!! She does drink upwards of 250mls of water a day as well.

As far as routine before bed, I must admit I am not nearly as strict as my friends with babies that sleep through. Mayson normally showers with me in the morning so it isn't often she has a bath before bed (when she does it doesn't seem to change her sleeping habits) so generally it is pj's, cuddle and bottle and bed. I try to read to her but most of the time she gets too wriggley and upset at being made to sit still.

Can I just say again, thank you so much for your advice and kind words, I have a Mum's group of 8 and we are the only ones that don't get a full night sleep and all my friends children sleep through except for the odd night so it is great to feel that we are not alone.

Katie
