Hi Everyone! Sorry I have been MIA lately. Lucas has started sleeping through so it’s been awhile since I’ve posted. I’ve actually been on facebook too when I have any time for the computer, and low and behold you are all over there too! I’ve requested to join the group and I’ll start adding everyone today if that’s ok! My name is Melanie and my picture is black and white and I’m pointing in it so you recognise me!

Tracey ~ Ha that's funny, must be a boy thing!

Tears~ TTC again, that’s great news!

Star ~ Hope you are feeling ok and have had some time off.

V ~ Not long to go, very exciting!! Will be back to look at your pics.

Nicky ~ Lucas is FF and I’ve always given him extra water as he suffered from terrible constipation. He won’t drink it from a bottle so I usually just drip it into his mouth. It’s a bit easier now it’s hot and he’s teething. He will hold onto the bottle and bite the icy cold teat and will swallow some this way. Still I’m lucky to get 10mls in.

Megan ~ How is Lucas? I lived in Melbourne for 3 years so I could only imagine how he must be coping with heat there. Being from the NSW mid north coast I could never get my head around how the hottest part of the day is in the afternoon. It would be hard to get bubs to sleep when it’s still so hot at nighttime.

Star ~ Lucas has been very clingy with me lately too.

Mel ~ I will have to backtrack to read about how you went with your surgery. Hope all is well for you and the kids.

Fran ~ That’s so romantic that you and DH have never been apart, how did you go with the bed all to yourself?

Blue ~ MILS! It must be hard for you. I lost count how many times Lucas’ great-grandmother told me how there were no ‘titty’ bottles and ‘pipes’ (dummies) in her day last weekend, and that was bad enough.

Dani ~ Hello and welcome to you and Oscar, I had Lucas via emergency c/s 22.7.07 four weeks premmie. Look forward to getting to know you both more soon.

Hello and lots of love to everyone.
