Jo: Thanks for your ideas re Zantac but Dash can't take it straight because he wont swallow it and spits it out and then wont feed after it, even the Dr couldn't get it down him. Dr said that this is common because it is foul, maybe it wouldn't be if it was like your strawberry flavoured Zantac?? Dash's Zantac has been calculated by his weight (in fact he should only have 2mL twice a day but because it is bad they increased it 3mL 3 times a day to be reviewed in two weeks) by the pharmacist and paed and it has a really strong peppermint flavour - it tastes stronger than mouthwash. So maybe there are different types/strengths of Zantac (interesting, will have to find out)?? The only way we can get him to have it is in his bottle. This works fine when he drinks it......which he has today because I have changed the flow of his teat from medium to fast.... can't believe I didn't think of this before. Thanks for your thoughts anyway, it's appreciated. Yeah on Caleb sleeping 11 hours+....it's nice isn't it??!! Bet you can't wait to see your Dad again in a couple of months.

Ren: Hope your blisters go away, ouch!! Can't wait to see your photos.

Bon: I think Nixon is going great guns with his night sleep....like you said, not much to complain about because it is a lovely big block of sleep once you get him down. You are doing a great job. He will get there in his own time. Bubs just love attention but things will get back to normal soon after you get back home.

Dis: I'm feeling better now lol! I didn't really want to toilet train DD until late Spring (she is only 21 months) but she has given me no choice because she takes her nappies off all the time and goes to the toilet, mostly at the wrong time. If she goes in a nappy she takes it off straight away and tells me what she has done and gets quite upset because she no longer likes the feeling. She is quite happy to run around in trainer knickers. Just bad timing really because I am already so busy trying to co-ordinate and get used to a toddler and 2 month old, it is hard some days as you know. Not to mention the regime we go through each day with reflux, terrible twos, leg braces, orthodic shoes and physio each day. I'm exhausted come night time.....like everyone else I susppose!!



Anyway, this was only meant to be a short message. I can talk a lot because I don't get a lot of adult conversation at home....only here really, so thanks to you all for taking the time to read my thoughts!! Better go and get some sleep....it's been a rough one lol! Will have to start finding some of you ladies on facebook to check out your pics, I never go around to it when I was pregnant (finding you all that is)!!

Good night!
