Hey there, I just wanted to point out that lots of Drs are pretty crap with young babies. I would be waaay more inclined to listen to the Maternal Child Health Nurse. They "do" babies day in, day out. I feel your local GPs pretty out of touch with little babies (unless they take a special interest with babies/children). My preg Dr was great, but he told my GF to put her daughter on solids at 3 months....very dumb.

Good luck though, try not to be too hard on yourself if bubs doesn't settle (like RH says - everything is YOUR fault now you're a mother), most of them take waaay longer to learn to settle if they do.
Oh - and puhlease don't listen to you mothers grups chums when they tell you their babies "slept through from 2 weeks old", it's the WORST urban myth I've heard.....
