    Yes, this is completely 100% normal! The best thing is to go with it - in no time at all she will get quicker and you'll get the chance to do other things (like sleep...). And, as Lenny said, HABs are great for getting things done while carrying around your little baby. At this age slings/carriers can be the best way for settling babies too.

    Update on Renstar & Ava

    Hi everyone

    I received an sms from Renstar around midnight last night. She & little Ava were admitted to hospital after 2 really bad days. Ava only slept 8 hours in the last 24 and even then it was only from exhaustion of crying so much. They suspect it is possibly silent reflux but they were going to hopefully get some help & answers from a pediatrician today.

    Update again at 11.30am - Ava is feeding ok although very tired.

    Lets all send them both a big hug and lots of positive vibes. Will let you know if I receive any more updates.
