Hi all!

Hey Georgi, glad you had a great Easter! Bring your wellies to Sydney, it has been flipping miserable for days and looks like it will continue. Blah!

Crumpet, no need to mess your dacks - they are there to help and everything you let out is one less thing for you to worry about. It's a time of huge change and adjustment - I felt like I was having an identity crisis for awhile there, and talking it out helped. I am a totally different person to this time last year but I'm much more comfortable in my own skin now. Hope the session goes well for you. Hope Summah gets well soon!

Hi Charlotte, in terms of routine I just follow Millie's lead. Some days she wakes up at 3 or 4 am for a bottle, other days she sleeps through til 6 or 7... I feed her when she's hungry, put her to bed when she's tired, and play with her or take her out inbetween times Night is always the same though - 6.30pm bath, massage, bottle, cuddles, bed at 7.30. I hear you on the dying-of-starvation routine though - Millie used to pull that, the poor little chook. Now she just gives us this indignant yell if she feels her needs aren't being met. It's SO cute and hard not to giggle at her gummy little mouth! She lets me know if she's not hungry and I don't push her to finish every bottle. She generally makes up for it later.

Heh heh, Cathie the ! It sounds like your family is dealing with the heartbreaking return from paradise okay!

MadB, I'm on the mend but on antibiotics to stop it from marching further down my respiratory tract. Gah. While I was at the GP the other day I chucked Millie on the scales. 7.6kg I couldn't measure her but she's SO long too. Hope you got to those other bottles

Hope everyone is well!
