    Smithy, unless you're force feeding her then I really don't think you can overfeed a baby I know sometimes when they have reflux they like to eat more as it helps them feel better, although the extra milk ends up making them feel worse. Does she take a dummy? I know it may be different with formula, but 2-3 hour feeds sounds very normal to me.

    Green - hang in there. Thrush makes them so unsettled and uncomfortable. Once the meds kick in thiings will be a lot better I'm sure. Do you have thrush also?

    Hope your face is alright Grub!

    Hope you're all better soon Acacia.

    Happy Birthday for tomorrow Kelly.

    DS is fine - he's had 2 nights in his big bed now. I think I want my baby back!

    Hope everyone else is doing well. Hugs and kisses for you lovely babies

    Grub...I was going to comment on Ash finding his hands on your FB pics. Jazz only found hers really with enough control to keep them inher mouth at between 14 and 15 weeks. Life gets so much better with hands Wait til he learns to "booby rake" to get that feed to her mouth.

    I can't remember what else I wanted to say

    Oh yes, for tomorrow, in case I don't get back in time, big huge happy birthday greetings to Kelly

    Oh shucks, thanks girls for the birthday wishes for tomorrow..

    I also want to send big birthday wishes for Miss M for tomorrow as well . I know you have your hands full at the moment but have a fab day.

    And my special birthday present a day early is..... Tara now perfecting the back to tummy roll. She thinks she is so ace now that she can do it on her own, she even did it at MG today when I wasn't even looking. I put her down on the floor and went to get my cuppa and came back and she was on her tummy. She decided to do it another 3 times just to show off, and tonight she did it 3 times in a row for daddy as well. Only problem, mmm she doesn't know how to get back again........

    Anyway, better go get her organised for bed. After 2 days of her sleeping for on average 20 hours we seem to be back to normal although I love that she now sleeps in until 9.30-10am every morning .
