Tanya - Shane did the same last night with Jenna. After trying to get her odown for about 2 hrs, I just gave her to him and said - Take this child away from me!!!!! Then I got to sleep from 9:30 til 3am!! YAY!!!!!! Then I went to bed with her in the spare room after she was fed, and we slept until 8:30!! Yeeha!! I feel human again.

I've decided to try and be more strict with her during the day, and make her take more naps. (How do you make a baby do anything??) Rather than letting her sleep on me where I dont get anythign done, I'm going to be really good about wrapping her after a feed and putting her down. At elast this week. Maybe next week something else will take my fancy. Its amazing how much difference having the radio on in her room makes though, itmeans other noises just dont wake her up.

Deb - I hardly ever get to hold Jenna at netball - normally eveyone else is busy cuddling her. AT least her immune system will be strong right? And the nappies really take hardly any time at all. I would be lucky to spend 15 mins on them a day, including hanging them out. ALthough I have had them inside on the drying rack too many times lately, and they are beginning to smell. Time for sun bleaching I think!

Zola - Your nipple sounds awful - thank god mine never bled otherwise I might have given up too!! As it is, the nipple shield has done the job, and I should be back to normal in a few more days. I cant wait to stop using it, I get sick of washing it all the time. Lucky you getting all that sleep, and yay on the smile. I'm starting to get them from Jenna when I sing silly songs to her, and it makes me laugh too!

Sarah - I dont think I get that much done ata ll. I have been watching WAY too much daytime telly. Its giving me the $hits. Its all such rubbish. But I got breakkie this morning while I fed her. Yoghurt is great in muesli cause it holds it all together on the spoon as I move it from the table, across Jenna and in my mouth. No spillage this morning, but she has ended up with some food on her head! And I refused to not have a shower before lunch today - I made it in at 11:50. LOL.
