Hi all how is everyone today?

Well Scout has taken to this solids things like a duck to water. He loves veges! Long may that last. He is having dinner about 5ish and also a few teaspoons of fruit for breakfast. The first night he had them he slept from 8-30pm till 5 the next morning, Woohoo! I of course was awake every hour checking him So the next night I was thinking we were in for a good nights sleep but no. Scout was to have other ideas and has not repeated it for me again. I want my baby that sleeps through back

11 more sleeps till we go on holiday. What a mission! Im sure Scouts luggage is going to be more than the rest of us put together. Portacot, stroller, frontpack, wraps, nappies and thats not to mention his clothes. Thank goodness we dont do it every week.

Andie I have also heard that its best to keep them rear facing for as long as possible, for the neck and back muscles to strengthen. We didnt do this with the other boys as we didnt like not being able to see them. We had the little mirrors but found they were about as helpful as tits on a bull! This time around we have bought an adore a view. Its the big teddybear mirror that attaches to the headrest and its great. It has a big 20cm mirror so you can see all of them and they can see themselves as well. Its a huge piece of mind for me and worth its weight in gold. I think it was about $50 from memory. Hope this helps.

Oh my goodness I just had a phone call from the Mater Mothers. Asking me how things are with us. She said they are sposed to do a follow up phone call between 6-8 weeks after the birth but they sometimes get a little behind geez ya think???

Anyway have a good day ladies, hope all is well in your worlds.
