Ok, gonna try and catch up but you know it might not work. BRB.

RORY -
you sound ... like you like being in control and organised and you were a career woman - right? Plus the milk situation, being worried about it and all...Your hormones are probably treating you like crap ok? Be nice to yourself - relationships take TWO, including you! My DH is this lovely easy going placid guy, and I tend to be (at times!) this anal, control freak so I sometimes get paranoid that people are whispering behind my back "Oh that poor guy! He's so nice and stuck with that b!tch of a wife" but I can't afford to think like that! But we have other issues anyway! You're unique and you're you, so he's damn lucky! Plus if you are aware that you can be a pain, then you probably aren't nearly as bad as you think you are! The worst people are those who don't know how awful they can be!
re. BF supply, feed as often as possible - ie. just for comfort if he cries. Drink lots of water and maybe milk? It might be the going back to work that is adjusting your milk supply too. I find after two days at work, I feel a bit "light on" the next day and just feed as much as possible. Maybe give him food instead of a bottle, so he'll get all his milk/liquid needs from you?

oh btw - what was teh group who didn't buy anything again? trying to get into the groove of that.

LMG - probably old news for you by now, but re. Marley's(?) eczema, my friend's little boy who had it so bad he was covered in little scabs where he scratched his head during the night, was totally cleared up once she stopped breastfeeding! I guess whatever she was eating was sending his skin nuts. He looks totally gorgeous now, and is placid ALL the time instead of just 99%. Don't know if that's totally helpful or what?

CeeCee99 - Ruby is really small too (I should weigh her), and not doing much(!) except rolling --> no teeth, no crawling, no clapping. But like Ally, she's cute and smiling and very happy, except when she can't reach something. I keep telling her to crawl and then say to myself 'what am I thinking??!!; - once they start crawling it is the end of continuous conversations, you have to stop every 4 seconds to grab something off them!
Oh and she talks heaps - just like her mum and sister!
She can't sit either although is close, and I wonder if it's because her tummy isn't big enough to hold her up??

NICKERS - Boys LOVE Their bits! Just in my experience - of boy babies I mean!! then again, not that different from adults!! It's like when they discover their hand, it's just they discover their pen!s and it's very exciting! I remember my friends' little boy nearly pulling his off he was so pleased with this attachment!!

BATHSHEBA - Ruby is VERY behind in her immunisation, I just ran out of steam! I think we missed 4 months, 6 months and anything else! Last time we went for immunisation it was for Giorgia (4) who cried and cried, and I cried too, so maybe I'm just avoiding it!!

Hello IK! thanx for all your jokes.

ali - I really hope you get the job ali. good luck.

Hello Karen, Amanda, jess, 7th heaven (you are SUCH an inspiration!), Dee, and everyone else. I really am sorry if I've forgotten you, it's just taken me about 45 minutes to catch up!!

Take care everyone, I'm trying to limit my time on the puter at the moment! Wish me luck!
