hi - it's been a while since i wrote as i just don't get the chance anymore to get on with a toddler & a new baby!

We're doing well despite the lack of sleep from DD2 in the day (sounds familiar!).

Teething - my DD1 was drooling, red cheeks etc from 3 months and everyone said she was teething. Which could be true as i now understand most of the pain happens before the tooth erupts - it's as it's the moving in the gum which seems to cause most distress. Her first tooth popped through at 6 months so 3 months of movement on & off.

We're off to the UK to see family in 2 weeks for a month long trip - wish us luck with a 22 month old & a 3 month old!

RoyaUK - Good luck and enjoy your trip!!! You are a brave woman... We are going to the Netherlands in June and only have Jasper, but I am nervous already!!

Jenjams - Jasper does the same; he keeps pulling off and my poor nipples are quite sore again... Hopefully they'll get used to it soon. He is content after a feed, so I just think that he is getting more efficient.

Roya - oooh good luck on your trip! it's a long flight.
We're flying to Kuala Lumpur in June (Esme we're flying on the 14th, when are you flying out?) and it's only 8 hrs but im nervous as hell. DH flies w us but he comes back after 2 weeks and Lakshman and I fly back in August by overselves.. eekkkkk

Hi prama, we are flying to Amsterdam via Hongkong on the 30th of June, so you can tell us all about flying with a bubby! Tell me about being nervous, I am so nervous, at the moment I don't even want to think about it.... Nothing like the usual looking forward to a holiday. Will have to change that soon though, will have to start thinking of what to pack... Do you have Lakshman's passport yet? We have applied, but not received yet. Hopefully in the next couple of weeks.
At least, on the way back, you will be an old hand at it and it will be no worries at all!!!

we havent got his passport yet, we are supposed to get his birth cert this week. if we dont by tomorrow, we are going to go in and get it done express. i read at the website that you can get the passport in 10 days. it is cutting close!
yes, i need to think what to pack too. we are away for 2 mths so he will be changing sizes, plus the weather is warm, i have of his clothes as gifts for summer that were too big, so i'll pack those and buy others as needed.
i also dont know what to pack for me.. my summer clothes dont fit too well.
Are you flying Cathay Pacific? We're doing Malaysia Airlines, my friend works as a crew and she said not to worry, the crew will help with stuff, setup the bassinet and all. im taking my hug a bub on flight, hopefully it'll will calm him, in case he looses it! hahaha
