Cass, got your msg, didn't think you were rude, don't worry.

Gee Cass, being woken up every hour is a bit extreme! I agree with the milestones thing. 2 of the other mums at my execise thing said their boys (2nd children) slept through from really early and stopped for a while around 4 months. I hope he settles down again soon or you may go insane.
We had needles yesterday and Edward had the best sleep he has in a while. He was niggly in the evening but almost made it to 5am. I was very pleased.
6.9kg doesn't sound big enough based on Elijah's previous measurements. Edward is 7.9kg and 66cm. Everytime I look at him I think he is big and roly poly, but Byron was 8.3kg at 4 months... he must have been a massive budda! He doesn't look that fat in photos.

We have been having some toilet success with Byron over the last week. He really doesn't want to get a nappy put on. Thankfully it has been warm enough to let him run around without one at home. We have had a couple of wees on the floor and a poo on the lawn, but mostly it has been in the toilet or potty. He is tall enough to stand in front of the toilet without a stool...just. It is so funny to watch him standing on his tiptoes directing the wees in. I can't wait to only have 1 child's worth of nappies to wash again!

Amanda, I have been using the baby beehinds magiucalls at night and they have been good, no leaks in the couple of weeks we have been doing it. They are a nice big cut so you can stuff lots in for the overnight shift. Would probably be a bit bulky for Byron during the day though as he has a fairly narrow crotch.

I managed to do an hour and 13 minutes for my run last weekend. I am going to be really pleased when this is over and I can stop worrying about how quickly/ how far I can jog. One of the other girls quoted 'pain is temporary, pride is forever' at me on monday. I have concluded I am not someone whose exercise related pride is important enough to me for that motto to work.

I need a coffee... hope everyone is well.
