    Merry Christmas ladies, i hope your all ahving a fantastic day with yuor gorgeous little families.

    Mel, you didn't have a whinge darl you were only telling us of your situation and asking if we had any adice to offer you- im just sorry that your going through this it must be so hard especially after it lasting for so long and being pregnant and all. I think you've done extremely well to get this far, i'd be tearing my hair out by now! I wish there was something i could do to help you , i think if your gut is telling you that there is something more to this then maybe go and get a second even third opinion because at the end of the day you need to know the cause of his sleeping issues , it could be something simple but it could be something more (i hope it's not, but it's better to know this for certain and rule it out).

    Your a great mummy and you should be very proud of what you have achieved! If you ever need to talk or want to catch up for a cuppa i'm not far away just let me know and i will be there ok


    Christina - Hope your flight home was nice, have a safe holiday and i look forward to catching up again on the 7th January. Merry Xmas.

    Becky - Merry Xmas! I did take the boys to see the lights at Springwood and they where absolutely amazing will definately go again next year -with any luck Corey will stay awake to actually see them next time! Did you go and see the ones at Collingwood Park...if so where they good?

    Harmony - Merry Xmas to you and your family! Hope your enjoying your very first xmas with your little princess. Sorry we wont be able to catch up on the 7th...next time we will all met up at a time convenient to you...can't miss you again a third time!

    Merry Christmas Everyone -

    Oh my gosh Mel - i dont know what else to say to try and help! When he wakes is he waking up hungry? do u feed him breaky straight away? if so Give him a low-sugar, high-carbohydrate snack before bedtime. And maybe leave a bottle in the bed for him for when he wakes up. Also children who wake early often nap early, too, going for a nap within an hour or two of waking up. This is actually the end of their nighttime sleep! Try holding off the morning nap by 15 to 30 minutes every day until it falls an hour or two hours later in the day than it is now. After a week or two you should see a new pattern emerge. But that dosent seem the case if he is sleeping in the car after 8am.
    Maybe he does have a second opion - there is some sleep school or something u can go too with him also - but u need a referal from gp!
    But apart from all that how was your Chrissy?

    Leah - thankyou! we did have a enjoyable 1st chrissy as a family! however DH was a spoil sport and wouldnt let me open presents at 4am when Bianca woke up for a feed! i had to wait until 6am! hehehe
    How was ur chrissy?
    Any yeh lets hope that we are 3rd time lucky and finally get too meet at next meet up!

    How was everyone elses Chrissy? Besides the kids did u all get spoilt?
    I didnt but we are planing on buying a new house early next year, and hopefully one with a pool so that will be my late chrissy present!

    Hey everyone!!!

    We all go spoilt here too! I got a Navman for my car... so now I wont have to rely on you Harmony... lol... should be fine! My parents also gave me a gold bangle, as well as a heap of other things.... my parents have always been known to go way overboard at Xmas time, and it doesnt look like they are getting any better with age... lol

    Harmony - for a new house! Where are you thinking of going? Around the same area? My hubby is in Real Estate.... so let me know when you want to sell and he can give you some great tips and advice!! He works for the company with leading sales around my area! Thats so exciting! How has Bianca been treating you lately??

    Christina - I bet your having a great time in good old Adelaide! Have some Balfours for me (She'll know what Im talking abut.... lol)

    Mel - Awwww how ya going? Been getting any more sleep? How was your Xmas?

    Leah - I went to Sprinwood too.... those lights were pretty impressive! We didnt get to Collingwood Park, ran out of time!!

    Hi to everyone else! Gotta run I can hear Chels waking up! Mwah!!

    We are looking at a house on Saturday, and if we like it we will be putting our house up for sale straight away! And we are looking at the same area we are in now, but if we can afford to we wanna "up grade" a little so to say and go Middle Park, Westlake, Sinnamon Park area! However have been looking and for what we want we may end up at Springfield Lakes!
    Bianca has been a right little cheeky bugga lately! she is definatly getting a character about her and attitude which everyone says is from me -but i dont think so!
    She has grown soooo much - wait till u get too see her again!

    Hello girls, glad to hear you all had a lovely Christmas and got spoilt...even though you had to wait until 6am Harmony!!!

    Becky...woohoo for the navman that's awesome, they are so good i'd be lost without ours (ours isn't a navman but it's still great).Those lights were very impressive i thought - Aaron loved them!

    Harmony , omg how exciting to be looking for a new house ...Springfield Lakes woohoo that's where i am - we love it here it is so family orientated, lots of outdoor activities, great school, friendly neighbourhood i could go on and on but i won't. I hope this house your looking at today is just what you want so you can get your place on the market and start the new year in your new house!

    Mel, how are you darl? Hope Santa was good to you all. How's everything going with your ealry rising lil man?

    Christina , how are you hun? I hope your got spoilt and are enjoying your time back at home. How's Joshy been - no more asthma attacks i hope. Take care and enjoy the rest of your time away.

    AFM, I'm very happy and got spoilt rotten DH & I got a cruise for xmas we are heading off up north on the P&O Pacific Sun in late February for a week can't wait will be brilliant!
    Mum and Dad left this morning and asked if they could take the boys home with them (we are going down tomorrow) so it's just me and DH home today...thinking we might go out tonight to celebrate our 11th anniversary yesterday.

    HAVE A GREAT DAY GIRLS

    Hey Everyone!

    I just got back from Adel this morning, am so glad to be back was pretty full on! We got lots of great pressies(won't have to buy anything for the kids for ages!!) but was so tiring. Joshy's asthma has been good, no attacks but is still a bit wheezy, taking him back to the doc tomorrow for a check up. Chloe didn't cope too well with the travel and didn't want to go to any of the rellies so i had her attached to me 24/7.

    Harmony is spot on with the address of Rowdy Rascals, they told me we don't have to book but i will ring tomorrow to make sure.

    Looking forward to catching up with everyone again!
