    Sarah - im glad that website is helping you. i too do not believe in control crying, someone on the website said that one time their little one was crying and someone said to let them cry it out, well she caved and went in there and her little one was lying in vomit, if she had have not gone in all night and let him cry it out he wouldve fallen asleep in it and then vomited again (which he ended up doing) and possibly choked on it, plus he had diarrhea. imagine how traumatic that would be for a baby!

    Also someone said to me, imagine if you came home after a horrible day and all you wanted was a cuddle and you came in crying and i just walked away and ignored you, how would you feel.... well thats what its like for them, sometimes they just need a cuddle, babies have bad days too.

    ok ok enough from me, i didnt realise i felt so strongly about all this until i had a baby!!

    Orange - yes i have started trialling my cloth nappies during the day and they are still a bit too bulky (they are one size fits all) he only goes about and hour and a half before he hates wearing them because he can actually feel the wetness and i have to change him so ive decided to do disposables at night so he can sleep peacefully through and cloth during the day... I have some motherease nip naps and they seem to be alright, some of the others ive bought arent that good (waste of money!) and some others are too big to even try yet. Caleb is still under 5 kgs so it might be another week or so before i can really get stuck into them.
    Well i just gave Caleb a bath before sleep time and he was kicking off the bath and having a grand old time, he just loves it. He loves tummy time too, he holds his head up straight and high for about 5 minutes straight, its unbelievable, i just sit there taking photos of him while he is doing it and i get around 10 in before he starts to wobble!! hahahaha

    My sister is now 5 days overdue for her little girl, she is getting the gel put in tonight and then again wednesday if nothing has happened by then, i sure hope she goes soon the poor thing.
    Oh and Caidens mummy is having troubles with belly belly but said to say hi to everyone and she misses you all!

    My goodness i can talk today! as you can see i have far too much time on my hands at hte moment hahaha, i even started back up on my scrapbooking again today for Calebs album.
    Well i better go and spend some time with my husband, i bet you are all sick of me by now!
