HI all,

Sara, Xavier seems to be following suit quite well with colby. we got 10 hours after his needles and 9 hours last night. but at the moment he is sleeping sometimes during the day.

Alison, that's fantastic to hear the weight gain is going up!!

Shell what a great GP you must have. I don't think mine would be putting his arms out to take babies.

Kristen at the how dare you put that away comment. I get looks from xavier as if to say why are you bothering to put those silly clothes on in the first place. It will just take longer when I'm hungry. Poor you and your hubby, did he get a little shocked. maybe he felt a little unloved and powerless because he couldn't soothe her.
My DH showers with Xavier too, I have only bathed with him. Bathing I found easy because he couldn't root around looking for my nipple 'cause he couldn't reach, but I think he would be ok because he really calms down in the water.

Kim I've found that if I do try to use the dummy some times it get spat back in my face as I have the real thing to offer, why would he want the imitation one.

Last night we had a visit from a friend. her little boy is about 10 weeks older a lot chubbier but only a couple of cm's taller. we lay them beside each other to compare. We have photos but they are still on the camera, it was pretty cute and we finally got a photo of xavier smiling.
My little man is also getting a lot easier to amuse (slowly) it was quite funny watching mum brush her teeth this morning. I have been able to keep his attention by reading some books to him too, he's not overly interested in toys though.
