LOL stop freaking - she is fine!!!
All babies develop at different rates, so I'm sure she will just do it in her own time.
If she gets to 6 months and not doing it - then there could be a problem.
Don't try to make her grow up too quickly, or you forget to notice the little amazing things they learn to do

Leash - Veygas isn't rolling yet ... I thought he was before his op, but then realised it was because I was putting him to bed on his side (it relieved the pain and the wind building up), and he was just rolling the rest of the way to his tummy.
Is it wrong of me to expect a slight delay in his development due to the op? I know it shouldn't affect his development, but he kinda did go backwards a little bit (even lost weight) after the op. Eh, I'll just let him plod along at his own pace (he does have 3 other siblings who are MORE than happy to do stuff for him LOL!!)
pmsl @ Maury!! The chicks always swear black and blue that this is the only guy they slept with, and they are 150% sure that he is the baby's daddy, and then the tests show that he's not!!Or on the other side of the coin, where the chicks have cheated on their hubbies and the baby MIGHT NOT be theirs!! LOL!
Pixie - Yay for Beth sleeping!!6th night for me ... 7pm-7am! (and I accidentally woke him up, cause I thought I heard him, but it turned out to be Khaemon making noises LOL!)
We are currently looking at land in and around Stanthorpe (obviously not physically LOL!) and are looking at building options .... still trying to decide whether we will build straight away, or wait .... it's all just random thoughts at the moment anyway!
MT - how sweet for Jett and DH to be crashed out together!! When DS2 was little, he'd ONLY sleep on daddy's chest!! Day or night! No wonder he's such a daddy's boy!! LOL!
Hope everyone is having a good day ... I gotta go and hang out my 4th load of washing for the day! I think I only have one more to do! (otherwise DP and DS might be going to work and school nakey!! LOL)

Happy Saturday Everyone!
Mel -for the cold, I know EXACTLY how you feel! How sweet of your DH to let you stay in bed!
Pixie - YAY for the long sleeps! That is wonderful news! Clever girl Beth! Let's hope she keeps it up!
Leasha - PMSL at you getting worried about Jazz not rolling! Jazz has other skills that Jett doesn't eg. he doesn't bat at his hanging toys yet.... he just watches them! As MM suggested they all learn and develop different skills at different rates. I have a poster that says the typical behaviour at different stages, and batting objects is in the 6-8 weeks range while rolling from front to back says that they may be doing it at 4 months. So you can see Jett is not following the rules! Although last night he was practicing rolling from back to belly.... didn't quite make it but was def trying! Back to side and then to back again!
I also agree with you about appreciating your parents and their parenting more when you become a parent yourself.
MM - I have so many photos of DH and Jett crashed out together! DH reckons Jett puts him to sleep, cos every time he holds him while sitting on the couch he falls asleep!I think Jett has a very calming influence on DH, which is saying something as he is quite a placid person anyway!
I don't think it is wrong to expect a slight delay in V's development. He would have been in pain and so distracting him from exploring his new world. So to me it would be perfectly acceptable for him to be slightly behind, but I wouldn't expect the delay to last any more than a few months. Like the way premmies eventually catch up to those bubs born full term at the same time. And besides, with all his older siblings he is more likely to suddenly take off cos he wants to be like them!
Ok, I'm off to the pregnancy, babies and childrens expo this arvo. It is supposed to be a 29 degree day here, but it has come over all overcast and windy so we may get rain, but then again this is Melbourne in a drought! Hope you all enjoy the rest of your day!

Hi everyone
sorry no personals today waaaaaay to tired we had a shocker last night. Allegra didn't sleep and cried constantly until 2am and wouldn't take the boob but before that at midnight someone fired a gun in the park behind our house! I thought at first it was fireworks but DF jumped out of bed and said thats a gun which is strange as nothing wakes him! and he knows what a gun sounds like as he was in the army. THEN Cadence decided to wake up at 4am so I really really want to move house now!
take care everyone

ROFL I know = I love it, it's so sh*t!!! The Bear absolutely hates it though.....Mel, PMSL at Maury... everytime I see that show its always a "Who's your daddy" show where he's yelling out "The DNA test comfirms that...... you are....... NOT the father" *gasp* and the mother runs off screaming and crying.
Leash, the other day Beth was rolling from her back all the way to one side, and back on her back and all the way to the other side. The Bear said she rolled all the way over on the bed but I haven't seen that one yet. Although now she doesn't mind tummy time at all, and before she hated it. But like Mel said, they all do different things at different times. Sounds like Jazz is going well to me! Good to hear you didn't have to go to hospital for the abscess.... but bummer on the attachment issues. For some reason Beth tries to nearly rip my left nipple off, but the right one she is always fine.
MT - lucky you going to the Baby Expo.... haven't heard if it came to/ is coming to Sydney? Maybe some Sydney ladies know (are there any Sydney ladies here?)
Squiddy = bummer about the Xmas party....
Hmmm well the Bear is cooking lunch, and Beth is asleep in her rocker and we have a friend over so should probably be trying to be sociable! waves to all

SLEEP SLEEEP SLEEP SLEEEP SLEEP
OMG what an awesome night, if I had gone to bed earlier I would have gotten more!! Gave Nakita her bottle around 11:30, had a lot of trouble burping eventually got 3 good ones out of her, put the new boobie pads in her pram and she slept until 5:48am, gave her dummy, woke at 6:10 for a feed, fed her, finished just after 6:30 - can you believe it, she is getting so much quicker!!, then back to be for both of us and I woke at 9:40am to her chatting away - and she didn't want a feed until nearly 11am!!
I have to go for now got people coming over and need to do the floors and go to the shops have a great day!!
Oh yeah Nakita's hair is having a growth spurt - grown quite a bit in the last week!!!

We have had a great couple of days, Beth slept through the last two nights, and this morning she didn't wake up until 7.30my boobies nearly exploded!
I forgot to mention the other day - put her on the scale when I was at mother's group and she's up to 5.8kg! Little porker!
Kel - sorry about your shocking night the other night, hope last night was better!
MT - how was the expo? did you find anything you liked?
Mel, hope you're feeling better
MM - lordy all that washing! and yay for your son the champion sleeper!
Well, we had a busy day here yesterday, markets, a friend came over, then my mum and her friend came over and the Bear drove them to the airport, they are going to Italy for 3 weeks. Just a quiet day today I think. We just found a bunch of wasps making a nest in the frame of our bedroom window - EEEEEEEEK! have to get the pest people in, don't want them anywhere near our baby!
