    Hi all,

    we're still having some sleep problems but they're sort of getting better too. Blake is settling to sleep much better - be it his day or night sleep. I've starting playing his favourite CD - Ben Lee's Awake is the new Sleep (hmmm is there something in that title??? ) and he just lies in his cot and listens to it. Lets me put the cot side up, grab his bottle and walk out of the room. Not a peep is heard and he falls straight to sleep. During the day he sleeps 2.5/3hrs but at night time he's waking everying 40/50 minutes. What's with that? He can't settle himself back to sleep and he sits up in his cot, crying for his dummy. In the end I get too tired, waking everying 40 minutes and I get up and put him into bed with me. Any suggestions?

    DH is away in Canberra all this week, so I'm doing the single mum thing. It's not too bad I guess. I get some quality time with Viv seeing she's on holidays, and as always I've got my gorgeous boy. It just means I've got to be more organised.

    Kate, sweetheart... I'm sending you lots of labour vibes. Come on little one, it's time to come out! *labour vibes, labour vibes, labour vibes* HTH

    Bel, Blake only has one sleep during the day, and has done so for months. I guess it's part of the second child syndrome. He has to fit in around our/Viv's life and with her activities. He still has two bottles - both for bed, and I'm sure this is part of his settling problems. Oh well, until we get to sleepschool - whenever that will be, we'll still have problems.

    Bec, Welcome to your new place, honey. I hope you're starting to settle in ok. It's great to have space, isn't it?

    Vanita, I can't believe you still haven't got your fridge! Grrr! I'm sure it will come soon honey. Bummer about gastro being back again. I guess with a large family, someone's gotta have something sometime! Glad Riana had a good birthday. What sort of cake did she have? I must have missed it. OK, I just read back. Who the hell is Fifi Flowertot or whoever it was? Guess I better google! LOl

    Deb, hope you have a wonderful week away. I hope it's restful.

    Hi Heather, how are you coming along? Hope you're not feeling to yucky with m/s. hugs

    I'm off to bed cause my boy will wake me before too long.

    Take care everyone. Kate I'll email you my mobile number so you can sms me when you go into early labour!

    Love to all
    xx
