Leasha ~ Seven doesn't actually like her swing! Ive tried it countless times, but because it lays back a bit too far for her I think that may be the reason. She prefers her Baby Bjorn bouncer. I can sit it right up for her and she loves it.
Occasionally she will fall asleep in that, sometimes during feeding, and most often when we have her in the 'neck nuzzle' hold. I have tried all these things at night to no avail. I think Seven thinks its wake up time.

Kel ~ I have a 'nighttime' top that I wear every night for bed. It smells like me and Seven and I have tried giving her that top without me in it. Nope! Not good enough! LOL And yes, that is an adorable smiley pic you have there! I got a cute one of Seven this morning too! I might have to put it in my Gallery!

Squidpea ~ Glad Josiah likes his swing! Would make things easier! I wanted to go for a drive the other night when Seven was really playing up but DF wouldn't let me go at that time of night. He says we can't 'give in' to Seven etc etc. That upsets me. When I said walking I meant holding her and walking around the house. Putting her in the pram doesn't really work at night!


I have had her awake for 2hrs now and shes not getting too grumpy at me. I might try and entertain her a bit longer today and try and limit her day sleeps and see if that helps. I didn't really want to do that but I am at the stage where I will do anything to help us all get to sleep at a reasonable hour at night!

Thanks everyone for all your suggestions and tips! I really appreciate it!
