Shell,

it;s definitely a rash, unfortunately. It comes and goes, is much worse after a sleep or when he's been crying. Almost non-existent first thing in the morning or after his bath.

I also read what you wrote in the April Baby Buddies, and come to think of it, maybe it's coz Charlie's in our room, that whenever he cries at night, I'm up before he gets a chance to maybe settle back down to sleep. Mind you, I sleep like the dead, so he's got to be really crying for me to wake in the first place...

I also got a call from my sister this morning, saying a friend of hers in due to have a baby boy in a couple of months, and was I interested in handing down Charlie's clothes? I have really mixed feelings about this, funnily enough. I don't know if I'm quite ready to give his clothes away knowing that we might have a chance, however slim, of another child in the future. But of course I can't say this to my sister, as I certainly won't be letting my family know about our plans for Dec. Am I being silly, should I just hand them over?

PS Mel and Amy have been MIA for ages!
