Gemma, I agree, this format should be much easier to keep up with.
I can't believe you are TTC again already! Good on you. I couldn't imagine being pg again so soon, but then I couldn't imagine being pg ever again full stop! [-( We've definately finished.
It sounds like Amy is doing great! Sarah isn't rolling yet, but then my other kids weren't big rollers either. They just sat up and crawled!
Kate, I admire you for being so commited to getting into shape. I keep saying "tomorrow" but then I go and buy a block of Top Deck chocolate! 8-[
I'm glad Kelsey has settled into a routine for you, it makes life so much easier doesn't it?
Deb, I know how hard it is to have a bub who won't sleep through. My other two were like that. I don't know what it is with Sarah but I think maybe I'm just lucky. I really appreciate how good she is and I'm so [-o< that she continues to sleep so well.
Are you going to keep going with the formula?
When Sarah was about 9 weeks old I read both Gina Ford and Tracey Hogg's books. I picked the bits that I thought made sense from each book and combined them to come up with a sleep/feed routine that works for us. Sarah took to it straight away. I've managed to bring her last feed at night forward to 10am so we get 9 hours straight from 10pm- 7am.
(I know some of you were discussing these books a while back.)
We also bought the Fisher Price Ocean Wonders Aquarium for Sarah's cot and it's been the best thing! She falls asleep every time looking at the fish swimming around!
Can you tell I'm quite impressed with my little girl being so good? LOL
It's such a change for me, my older two kids were hopeless at going to sleep on their own and didn't sleep for more than a couple of hours at a time in their cots.
After hearing what you guys are doing I think I'll try Sarah on some rice cereal on the weekend and see what she thinks. I'm also going to let her have a go at drinking some cooled boiled water out of a cup. (I bought the Heinz 4 months + cup.)
