Hi guys.

Well, we were doing great with DD's sleep until the last 2 nights. She was sleeping from roughly 7pm to 6am with one wake for a feed and then going straight back to sleep again, but the last 2 nights she has woken up at 11pm and then screamed for most of the rest of the night! I think she may be teething as I can feel something rough on her gum at the front. She also got very upset for a couple of days after her needles, they really seemed to affect her this time, the poor little thing. I hope these teeth come through soon and she starts sleeping better again, I was just getting used to having an ok night's sleep!

JJ - DD sure loves her food, hey! Good on her, I hope she likes meat too. I hope she enjoyed the pool. We have just started new swimming lessons which are going well so far.

prama - sounds like DS was a dream on the flight back home. What a good boy!

sue - I tried one of those net things, but DD doesn't seem to be interested which is a bugger! I thought maybe I would finally be able to get some solids into her! I will try again when she is a little older and see how we go then.

minky - that's funny about DS! DD doesn't seem to have noticed her nether regions yet. She is too busy in the bath trying to put her feet in her mouth most of the time!

esme - good to see you back. It sounds like you have had a bit of a rough time lately. I hope things get easier soon. My DD isn't into solids much yet either. I don't know why I bother, but I try to feed her twice a day. She insists on feeding herself, so we end up with food everywhere and I am not sure if any actually goes down her throat. I think some bubs can just take a bit of time to get used to solids, I know that my sister wouldn't touch them until 8 months and she was fine. We are on 5 BFs a day and two small meals (that is if she will actually swallow any!) and she is becoming a little fatty!

Hi to everyone else, I hope you are going well
