Hello again,

Wow - so much has been written even since yesterday! You gals are quick off the mark!

I don't think you should worry, Rose. It seems (in my limited experience) that babies develop either verbally or in terms of motor skills first. Charlie isn't talking at all yet (which is funny, because his parents are both chatterboxes!), but he's learning in other ways. I think that we (parents in general) have a tendancy to get worried every time our babies aren't doing what other babies are doing, but we have to remember that they are all different. DH and I are also ttc at the moment, but as I haven't got my period since Charlie was born it makes it difficult to know what's going on. I think if I test every few weeks that should be ok... who knows? Good luck with yours, too.

That is so cute about Joshua being the SRC Prep, Michelle. I am a school teacher (music) and the lower grades have always been my favourites. Good on him.

Sorry to hear about your lack of sleep, mooshie. I hope that you get lots of responses to your post and that you're able to find some solutions. Have you thought of getting in a "baby whisperer"? Charlie was NOT sleeping through the day (he's a stubborn little guy and would cry whenever he went near the cot in the day) but we got someone in to help us a couple of weeks ago, and now he's doing much better. Let us know how it goes.

I live in Geebung, Christy... but I don't set myself a budget, which is very naughty as I have been known to spend quite a lot! I buy clothes for myself too, as I am on a weight loss crusade and can't see the point in buying new clothes if they are going to be too big a few weeks later.

Anyway, girls, must dash. Hope you're all having a wonderful day!
