Well we have day/ night pretty sorted here but noticed Em really doesn't sleep that much. She sort of naps and has alot awake time and gets cranky if she is not being held, think my hug a bub will be very handy when it arrives.

Det- wow at going into 00! I remember Ash didn't til she was like 3-4 months old! Thats great. Good you being so far ahead we can see there is light at end of the tunnel.

Ellie- Like Det said we did similar to teach Em, during night everything is quiet, no talking, dim light then in day she sleeps downstairs in lounge with us going about our usual business, blinds open, chat to her. Also change her nappies after a feed in day and at night I do it between sides.

Nai- I've not heard of the Aldiri bottles, do you just buy at chemist? We were never able to give Ash a bottle til she was about 9 months old, I really hope Em will take one cause was very hard not being able to leave her to have a break.

Meg- That'll be handy to have your sister around and keep you company too. Hows it going with 2 again?

Ali- Hope she sorts out her unsettled time, thats the worse time to have it I think! Early nights for you for awhile I think, and try nap in the day once she is asleep, forget housework and all that, rest!

AJP- Good luck tomor, its not so bad, only prob I find is when they both wake at same time and you gotta feed bubs while toddler is waiting to get dressed and fed themselves.

Took Ash to playschool concert today, think it was nice to do something just mummy and Ash, told her its just for big girls and Emily can't come cause she is just a baby. Ash seemed to enjoy herself.
