Sofia hasn't slept well the last few nights either, I think she is starting to teethe but also we have been away from home so long she just might be really unsettled.

So we finally are back in Sydney after almost 4 weeks away in Canberra and Forbes. Was great being away the first 2.5 weeks except when Sofia got her cold, but the last week was harder as Maria just wanted to go home, (now however she wants her hotel room back).

Sofia has grown heaps her last weigh on Tuesday she was 5.67kg

Morgan: She isn't cold as I have her in an all in one and it isn't quite that cold here yet I have a temp thing in my room and it says 23c most of the time

Not sure abut getting teeth.. She chews her hands Alot but thats a normal developmental thing for this age and her gums aren't red or anything. haven't had to deal with teething yet either (boys were awesome teethers) so I am unsure of what signs to look for

Never wrapped her and she won't tolerate it either. She sleeps on her tummy and keeps rolling over and she wakes herself up so thats the biggest issue..

Today I am making sure the room is bright and airy for her day sleeps. I have started to wonder if she had day and night mixed up as her room is dark for day sleeps too..

Louise: Welcome back Hope Sofia settles down for you soon too

Wel I am yawning away. I should get up and do something but am just to slack. I wish JAcob would have a sleep today then I could but oh well. i rang Dh to see if he could come home but they are short staffed so he can't He is going to deal with Olivia tonight however so I might get a decent night... Cross fingers!!

Hello ladies
Sorry I have been missing in action for the past few weeks....Took a whie to catch up on the the news you can really talk

Bek - Are you happy if your pregnant again so soon??? I have not done the deed for weeks now at the thought of getting preg now is not what I want.... Getting a IUD fitted monday coming...

Morgan - Glad the operation went well with Vicki and glad they found the problem this early...Who knows how it couldve affected her fertility when she was older...

Trish - hope the sore spot on my booby clears up real soon thank god I havent had any signs of mastitis I dont either

Ladies with problems with babies who wont settle I so can relate to that...Had a terrible few night with Olivia now...does your head in....

I still have the mouth pain and so far everything has been ruled out as to the cause so have to make a appointment with a specialist dr to investigate further...Managing to cope with the pain on Neufen Plus and Extra strong pain killers....

Does anyone else's baby still have a gunky eye??? Olivia does and nothing I do is clearing it up....

My sister gave birth to her very first on early Tuesday morning 12.10am a adorabe and big boy..she named him Thomas Matther and he weighed in at 3780g a hefty 8 pound 1 ounce.... the labour was very long and draining for her she went over 16 hrs without pain relief but had to have a epi in the last few hrs as bubs was not in the right position and her cervix stopped dilating at 7cm and was at 7cm for 7 hrs depsite trying different postions...I am so very proud of her

Well to anyone I missed a HUGE HELLO... Hope you are all well and that your babies are being very kind to their adorable mummy's..

Nic - Hugs hon. Maybe Olivia is having a "wonder" week. Sara always had restless nights for about a week just before she did some thing major like rolled, crawledl or walked. Crawling was the worst, she used to get up on all 4's and sway in the middle of the night. Sounds like she is just practicing her new found rolling trick. Failing that she maybe wanting solids. I hope you get some sleep soon.

Teena - Congrates to your sister. I can't believe you are still having mouth problems, you poor thing. How is Olivia? We have not planned to get pregnant now, but we were considering ttc #3 when Loren is 2yo. How are you going with the 3 kids? Do you find life any harder?

Kitten - Glad you got back safely. What a huge trip with 2 littlies. It does my head in going 5 hours up the road to see my mum.

BTW - I had 3 friends give birth on the weekend (all don't know one another) - Friday Callum was born (3.1kg), Saturday Isobel (3.7kg) and Monday Marko (4.3kgs).

I am just about to start organising Loren's christening. We have set the date for May 18. Thankfully DH has put his foot down and told his parents that we are not inviting everyone they have ever had contact with. We did for Sara's christening and ended up self catering for 60 people!!!! I only have 20 on my list this time.

Best whilst I have 10 mins to myself.

Ah.. Olivia has been asleep for over 2 hours now. Jacob fell asleep *finally* and I had a much deserved rest on the floor. I wasn't able to fall asleep but I feel like I have rested my mind. If that makes sense

Wonder week hey!! Maybe thats cus she has started rolling she might start doing it all the time and not just in bed. Crawling.. noooo not yet lol.. not ready for that yet. She is a strong little bugger though. she gets up on her knees and thats how she flicks herself over.

I don't think solids is an issue here as Olivia isn't feeding anymore then usual and doesn't want to be fed at night.. She is just awake...
