That's it, girls. I'm off to track down this book. Not that I'm having any problems with Blake, in fact once I took on board what the MCHN said, I'm soo surprised and happy that it works... he just falls asleep in his bed as if he was waiting for me to put him there but didn't know how to tell me!
Unfortunately I can't go and find it (you know how it is when you want something you want it now!) as DH & DD have gone away in my car. I do have DH's car however the ute is not equiped for the capsule or reversible car seat. It may have an anchor point but I'm not going to bother looking for it. So I have my pram and if we need to go anywhere we're on foot/wheels.
Brooke, I'm so sorry that Dan's having problems adapting to being a dad. It certainly is a life changing, and to a degree, limiting experience to be a parent. It does take away all the "living on a whim" abilities and certainly does tie you down to some kind of responsibility and routine. It's hard work, exhausting and sometimes frustrating, however IT IS the best job in the whole wide world. It's those first smiles, first laugh, baby cuddles, heart melting snuggles that make it something I couldn't live without. I'm glad that he's able to talk about his feelings, as you are able to share your feelings with us. It's oh so important to communicate, and it sounds like you are doing the right thing and making sure he has some space to do his 'old life' stuff. But do make sure he lets you do the same as it is hard work.
Will continue later as the boy's awake and I'm alone.
