    Belle.. hun, looks like the age for tantrums. Jesse is chucking whoppas when he doesnt get his own way or something he wants. I have a short fuse atm too. Am trying my hardest mostly though to just walk away and let him have his tantrum. Then he usually comes running to me with his arms out. But boy does he scream! It is so defening! Sometimes its hard just to ignore him especially when trying to get Keira to sleep. Those times we've been putting him in his room where he'll usually scream it out in there and come out afterwards. Maybe you could try that? When Julia's getting to much, just put her in her room.. sort of like a time out kinda thing.

    Bear.. with Keira we didnt have any problems until really Tuesday this week. Some babies you may just be lucky with the colic/wind issues.. some get them from word go.

    Mel.. oh really. Well dont think the Infants Friend is working much here. Well.. we're giving it to her before her feeds and it doesnt seem to be. Im then giving her another dose when she starts to have a bit of issues and that seems to work after a little while, but dont know if thats the infants friend working or her just getting past it. Cant wait until the 1 month period then! lol oh dear re the kick after the cuddles. Oh the joys of toddler tantrums hey. Thats gret youre getting a routine. Ours is still all up in the air.. depending how she settles or doesnt settle at night. Still every 4 hour feeds though.

    Mez.. oh how nice of your mum cleaning your house. It is great having the help isnt it.

    Well we had another bad night last night. Keira was crying for a while. Ended up settling for DH at around 11pm. I went to bed while he sat up and watched the footy and waited for her next feed. She then woke later and took anouther 2 hours for him to settle her. But then slept until 5.30am then 9.30am for me. Am hanging out for the 3-4 month period when this all ends!
