    I'm looking forward to some BFP announcements from this group before my baby arrives.
    We're trying!!!!!

    Pup hasn't got any fav toys yet...I reckon it's because he got so much stuff on his birthday, he still doesn't know what to play with first. And i have put stuff away!! He is shocking for making a mess though. Certainly not like Miss Kelsey who will put stuff back! (she has to come over and teach Pup!!).

    Must be the time for dropping feeds. I stopped Pup's 2pm breastfeed today for the first time. So he is on a morning bf and a night bf and the rest of the day it is food, milk, juice or water (not much water tho......).

    Just reading what Gemma's DH does as far as timing the dinner meal (5pm). God, am I doing it wrong? I feed Pup his dinner at 6.15 - 6.30pm. He has an arvo nap between 3 and 5pm (I don't let him sleep later than 5pm) - I'd like him to do 2 - 4pm but he takes it out by that hour! When he wakes up, I give him a snack (a homemade baby muffin, a biscuit, or a 1/2 serve of yoghurt) and a drink. He is then good until dinner (6.15pm). He then plays until about 7 - 7.15pm when he has a bath with DH. Somewhere between 7.30 - and 7.45pm he has a bf and goes straight to bed. Is this too late? If I did it any earlier though, DH would never see him after lunch as he doesn't get in until at least 7pm from the dairy.

    Deb, friends of mine had a holiday in Beruit. I thoguht it was a strange place for a holiday. I guess because growing up, Beruit to our age group was like Iraq is to youngesters today. A bloody war zone. So what's he doing over there? Work? you probably mentioned it before and I missed it. Hey btw, we are tentatviely thinking of going to Holland (or the Netherlands) in March/April next year. Maybe????? Not far away from you......

    Hi Hayseed,

    May as well give the whole day...Al's routine is like this give or take a half hour-hour

    7:00 am up and breakfast
    8:00 milk
    10:00 snack
    11:30 sleep
    13:30 lunch
    16:00 snack
    18:00 dinner
    19:00 bath
    20:00 milk then off to bed

    usually wakes around midnight and gets a sip of water and a re-plug around 3am or 5am. We have had 2 full nights sleep since he was born, but at least its not hours of settling these days.

    DH was in Beirut for work, in short, interviewing blacklisted heavy metal bands and preparing a documentary about the future of the middle east seen through the eyes of musicians. He came back with a bunch of brochures to entice Al and I to come along next time!:eek:
