Nic - thats sooo cute! she does look very grown up. Is the pic u sent on your FB? i rememebr seeing a pic like u said and though it was very professional looking! just gorgeous!

Adkins - i take ash all the time, although cos hes so little i dont get to sit down and have a coffee i have to watch him as the one i go to is for all ages and some of the toys are too dangerous to climb.
Some places have gates on areas for the little ones which i think would be fine!

I trim Ashs fringe now too, he looks SO cute!! very grown up!

WELL i finally have some answers to Ashs tummy problem, just came back from the specialist.. omg ... i feel so horrible... (she was absolutely lovey) very proud of me for still breastfeeding and says to keep going for at least one more year, being the first year ash is in care and will prob get sick alot. So she helped me not stress with that part, but as for his tummy, theres 2 things that could be the problem if not both of them...he is not getting enough iron and needs ALOT more meat, the iron makes his gut work and its just not doing anything for him at the moment. so he will prob need iron supplements to get him up to speed, but he needs to have a blood test next week first. Then theres his ear infection i didnt know about, which he could of had for a long time since hes one really bad cold a few months ago that it build up the fliud and possibly it hasnt drained which would explain when he doesnt like to lie down for long and feeds so often - the sucking relieves the pressure. So hes on panadol and antibiotics for that and he going for a hearing test to get a better look.

I have to keep a diary over the next 2 weeks to see how he goes... if nothing changes, we're on to something else....hmmmmmmm

Well one more step forward hopefully! Oh and we weighed him, almost 14kg with a head circumference 51cm hehehehe
