Sarah - yey for the sleep, fingers crossed it contnues for you. I would have freeked too if Emily had done anything like Zander, I'm so glad your Mum lives right next door.

Tanya - we are constantly chasing one of our cats Morgan out of the cot, I think he honestly believes we made a nursery for him and Emily is the invader. The upside is he tried to jump in once when she was in there and freeked right out and hasn't done it since. He just crashes out in there if she is awake.

Deb - hmmm red herrings hey. Nothing wrong with a feral house, you should see mine at present. But I figure I can work, come home and spend time with Emily or clean. I choose to play with my baby and work the cleaning stuff out when it fits in. If I was still at home I would do exactly the same thing.

Sorry to those I missed but have very limited time as there are Naught children at the door waiting for me. Emily absolutley cracked it for Kev last night (I was at work) which I find very funny as he has been less than sympathetic when she does it to me if he is away. She settled right down when I got home and just cllung to me- felt really special. The upshot is she was awake for 41/2 straight hours and slept until 6.40 when I woke her up. Recently she has been waking at 5am for a feed and then going back down. Much better this way.

Fi - our pets qualify as Emily's brothers and sisters, for now anyway.
