    DH told me last night that I musn't be as tired as I say if I won't go to bed for a few hours when he gets home - thats because you will fall asleep on the couch when "watching" DS darling

    OMG thats funny but so annoying as well....

    This is getting of your topic a tad (and please take this the right way) but: does your DH help you when he gets home or does he believe that the baby is your domain ?

    Bit of both - he's kinda loving that DS won't settle for him because it means he can just hand him back to me - but then at the same time whinges that I have ruined him by feeding to sleep

    He will help but just won't be all sunshine and roses about it ......

    mate. Rough isn't it. Darcy also did the separation thing at that age. While it's lovely to be needed, time out is too.
    Is he starting to do something new? Sit up maybe or roll both ways...Nate was rubbish for a few nights last week and all of a sudden he doesn't stay on the floor where I leave him :scratchhead: He and his sister think it's a great lark, but their little brains go overtime everytime they learn something new.

    Hey Kim ...

    Yep he's rolling both ways now - trying valiantly to sit up and munch his toes all the fun stuff.

    It seems that it will pass thank goodness

    Sounds like a wonder week. DD did the same thing at the same age. It should pass in a week or so. In the meantime, try and rest as much as you can.

    Yep - 19 weeks is a wonder week that can last for a few weeks too apparently - I am living through it at the moment too! They are going through some huge developmental leaps at the moment and one of them is realising that you aren't there. It does get better but we have to just ride the wave I'm afraid.
