She won't go to sleep.

You can put anything on a muffin or toast if you did want to give pear or apple. Then bub can still feed themself and my little one will suck the fruit or vegies off the bread.

I was gonna ask about Wonder Weeks. Hoping we hadn't hit another one!

Thanks guys.

I've learned 3 things today.

1. It's hot. And that is really bothering DD. She's a really sweaty baby and gets cranky in the heat - she may be Aussie born but she definitely has our Scottish blood. I turned the air con on and she fell asleep within minutes.

WHich leads me to my next discovery:

2. We need to lose the swaddle. She's been fighting *something* the past few days - and it's the past few days that it's also been hot - so tonight I took her wrap off and gave it to her to hold and she settled almost immediately.

3. She's a very fidgety baby, that I have known for a long time. I think I'm just going to have to live with the fact that she needs to do a fair bit of rolling around as her way of settling down. It's hard to watch her do though, as I feel that she is wound really tightly, but tonight she rolled onto her tummy, gave a wee giggle then rolled back, had some more boobie, rolled away again and fell asleep.

Result. Lets just see if those things are actually what's been going on though.

Thanks again to all for your input xxxxxx

We having another crazy night here. Still not in bed.

DD has only just gone down at around 8.45pm.

Kate, our babies were Soul Sisters or something. Plotting their mischief together before they got here. :)

She was awake between 11pm and 2am this morning. Got no idea what the heck was going on, I had to put her in the sling and rock her back to sleep. Poor wee sausage.

I'm knackered. :crying: DD however is still asleep!
