    Hi all,
    Bother, I've missed a bit. New thread, so I can't even refer back to the old one.
    Lauren- Good that Ash likes his water. Ty loves water, but we give it to him from a cup.
    Nic- What a cool birthday present! Sorry you had a bad night. Stay in the jammies I reckon. It's really sunny here but so windy (makes me cranky) and bloody cold.
    Jus- Lovely catching up with you as always Thabks for that feed stretching advice- we've done three hour instead of two hourly feed today twice and they've been good feeds, not top ups, so I'm crossing my fingers it helps a bit.
    Trish- Yay on the trip to Melbourne! Have a good time
    Any one got any tips for constipation? We had the worst night last night- up every hour or so- Ty didn't even want to feed, he was just whingy and grizzly and I think it's cause it's been a while since he did a poo- almost two days. That's what I'm putting it down to anyway.
    Hope you're all rugged up and babies are well

    Lorirae, boiled water a teaspoon of brown sugar, its great for constipation.

    It's freaking freezing here. Think I am going to freeze my bum off down in Vic. I hate the cold and I had to choose winter to go there. Typical me.

    Abbey is going very slowly with her solids too. I'm not in any rush though. Somedays she will eat them, and others she just gags. Still won't eat vegies though. Brat.

    Happy 7 months to Abbey !!
