Tarkine - YAY!! Welcome back! Sorry to hear everyone's been sick tho. Be thinking of you guys on F day.

OP - Poor poppet with an ear infection. Ouch! You have been busy - hopefully you can have a quiet few days this week.

Shell - How did you go last night? We've inherited a lot of clothes for J - so much easier than having to buy everything. The stash is starting to run low now and I've had to start buying. Going for unisex colours as well as the boy stuff cause thinking about when No. 2 comes along (no plans yet!!).

AJP - How are you feeling today? How are your iron levels?

Pinny - YAY on the tooth!

Nai - That sucks about the development. At least you tried.

Ali - sorry the sleep has gone backwards. It's hard but I bet if you were to take a snapshot now, compared to a month ago, overall she would have improved. Hope you get some poo soon too We have the opposite problem in this house atm, changing pooey nappies 1-4 times a day

Meg - darl I have no real advice (I saw your last post in your other thread). Who can you call on for support? J hasn't been well lately which could be contributing. You sound like you need some time out for yourself

Hi Heaven, Holly, and everyone else!

AFM - DS was weighed yesterday - still not 7kg and slipping down towards the 10th%ile for weight for age (height and head are still around the 50th%ile). Got a subtle hint from the CFHN that he could start solids any time from now and that might "help" him gain more weight. I actually think he's just going to be a leaner kid. He feeds about 8 times a day on average so it's not for lack of trying that he's not a chubber!!! She was raving on about rice cereal which I'm not that keen on and I asked her about BLS - she hadn't heard of it, barely let me explain it, told me she thought it sounded fine even though I wasn't asking her opinion but then documented it in his blue book like she felt she needed to cover her butt! I've just had a book on BLS arrive in the post today so I'm going to devour that. DS is only 24 weeks today and I don't think he'll be ready for a few weeks yet.
Had his 6 month shot yesterday too so he's been a bit unhappy since. Panadol is my friend
