Saph good you are both on the same page. re more kids.

Marcellus how long did it take for you to heal? I'm so over this.

BOC congrats on the birth of Jagger (love the name) he is so grown up looking already well done.

Oh smithy I hope the new house works out. Fingers crossed for good neighbours.

Janie thanks for the insight from a child's point of view, I know my DH didn't even see DSS till he was 4 (his mum is odd and it took a court hearing) so I guess he may feel a bit like "why didn't I get that". Great news about no more sick DD

Hi to Grub, Neptune and Murph Hope you're having a great start to the week,

ATM had a great weekend on KI, really enjoyed all the well wishes and seeing people I haven't seen for almost a year (hard to catch everyone in quick trips). They all loved DS and it was nice. Although by the end of Sat night I budled him into his sling to keep the pass around of cuddles down, I could see he was over it and he's "my baby" still makes me smile so wide.

This morning a minor miricle occured. 5.20 DH got up Linc stired I put his bottle on and there was silence. hmmmmmm I went back to bed thinking I'll just wait, when I heard him stir again (no screaming ) it was 6.30! OMG a normal wake up time. this continues. He's still only sleeping for an hour at a time during the day but nights are really working well atm.

On the eww side he's taken to spitting up! yuck. He doesn't seam to want to burp as much. I donno, I used infacol for a while but didn't think it really made any difference, maybe it will now?? he's eating more so maybe that's it. I hate the smell, it's so grose. especially at 1am on my sheets.... timing hay.

Had a strange conversation with DH on Friday and thought I'd share, friends of ours found out they are having a DS in August friend for LInc, and he's getting the snip right away! he's already got two DD's and that's it, DH and I still have three frosties and while the original plan was 1 baby I was thinking we may do more. But very logically DH reminded me of his age and that we have other plans to travel, slow down (work wise) etc and another baby in three years would extend all these plans. I got a bit huffy at first then looked and Linc and reliesed how blessed I am to have a beautiful Son, and this after all was our compromise (DH has DSS and DSD) so I stopped huffing and got a bit sad, cos what on earth do you do with frosties you're not going to use? it makes me feel so sad to chuck them but I don't want to donate them? any thoughts?
