Hi girlies!

I love the osteopath, DS is now playing with toys! Grabbing them in his hands, feeling them, making them do sounds... he's great!

MG, woo-hoo on Abby sleeping through! DS is the only one not doing that now I think. You must be so chuffed to get a good night's sleep.

Kel, yay on visiting old people, sounds like you and Jem will enjoy that. The baby contest results are back early June, so just waiting another couple of weeks for that.

Wow, Michelle, major poo explosion! For thumb/dummy debate, I know you can take away the dummy, but you can't keep your thumb in your mouth when running around, at least that's what I tell DH. DS just spits the dummy out anyway as far as he can, and I'm sick of crawling under furniture to grab it back. So I get love-bites on my arm from his sucking urges, but it won't be forever.

Adele, wow at waking up to check on the baby! When I'm out I'm out and DS will be in his own room (how special! no sharing!) when he's sleeping through, so no reason for me to wake and check.

Kristy, can't help with the nappies but yay for your sleeping through too! DH and I aren't that tall, he's 5.8 and I'm 5'11 (about 180cm in new money).

As for us, well, DS is so much happier after his osteopathy I'm taking him back for another session. Well, if I get them to write that it's to treat car injuries and give me a receipt then I don't pay for it. Might get some for myself too! Could do with some looking after. DH decided to start to play with DS too, so DS is very lucky! However, the night I decide to start using washable liners in his nappy is the night he does a poo on waking up for the day (at 7.30 so not too bad!). He was up last night at 9,12,3 and 6, but no fussing, just a quick feed and sleep. He was in bed asleep before 8 too, really chuffed with him (but the first feed was a bother as I wasn't in bed yet). He's also on the move - not only twisting in circles, but in the course of an hour he moved about 6" (15cm) on a play mat... not quite in Quinn's league, but doing well. He's such a star! He has also discovered his penis as a fantastic new toy to grab... didn't realise it started this young! Well, best put a nappy on him, chat later!
