    Jazz goes back to the doctor tomorrow. Matt had a swab test done from the back of his mouth and will get the test results early next week I think. Now I have a persistant cough and similar symptoms to what Matt & Jazz have. I went to the doctor today, she told me to stay away from anyone with a cough. I said I can't do that because my husband and 5 month old daughter have bad coughs.

    Second appointment with the Osteo today, hard to tel if there has been much difference so far. She said that the first 24hrs she may be quite grumpy, but she had a streaming cold, sonot sure if it was the cold or the appoint that made her a bit more niggley, not too bad though.

    She has been stretching her sleep out to 4 or 5am again which is nice as i get a longer chunck of sleep.

    Went to CMHN appoint on Wednesday, she is 66.2cm long (almost at 90th %ile!) and just under 7kg which is above 50th %ile - so really happy about that.
    Going to the starting solids talk next friday and they cover baby led solids so i am going to hold off til then.
    She is sooooooo ready for it thou

    Bron - so glad you got that Bonus, enjoy your hair cut - i went for one yesterday, took MJ with me as there was no way i was going to get any time alone (DH working 12-18hr days again this week and has to work Sat), she was good, had to hold her when i was having the cut, but she played and slept during the colour. DH still hasnt noticed Woohoo for the car seat - we need to get one for my mum too.

    Danni - i know what you mean about you want to be the one introducing things. I hope this doesnt sound to harsh, but you need to have consistency for little Jazz, otherwise she will not get it. Unfortunately as you have had to return to work it will mean that you will have to miss out on some new things with her. If you start solids on the weekend, you need to continue it at the same time, this will mean passing it over to the people at FDC etc, for them to continue. It is awful i know, and i know that you want to be as involved as you can, but these are the sacrifices that we make. At least you can prepare the food so that Jazz is having food that Mummy lovingly made for her. Sorry of that sounds harsh
    Hope Jazz and Matt are OK and you dont get it too

    Right, i think that MJ is ready for a booby call, so i speak to you all later.
    Hope you have a great day everyone

    SJ, it doesn't sound harsh at all. I know exactly what you mean and hard as it is to admit, it is exactly like that. TBH, I would prefer the FDC lady to be giving her food if it's during the day rather than the centre though but I do have to get some consistancy.

    Well, Matt's got Jazz all morning coz they've got their doctors appointment at 11am and then he has to take her to day care in the afternoon coz he's got a job to do. He's started getting some work for his business which is nice. A little extra pocket money.

    Well, I'm off. I have training for most of the day.

    Jesse has decided lately that if I'm holding him, he wants the boob inhis mouth. Even if he's not drinking from it. At least for the first few minutes anyway.
    He's using his hands with alot more confidence now. Grabbing everything, including my watch, which he never really worried about before.
    And chewing! On his sleeves, blankets or jumper. He loves to chew on any of those. As long as its material of some sort. He's trying to get my shirt in his mouth now!
    He's rolling with alot more confidence now. Instead of going onto his side & just thinking thats far enough, If I can't reach from here I don't need it, he's thinking more if I can see it, I'm gonna get it! & he rolls & tries to move himself closer by lifting his bum & pushing himself forward.

    He's looking for the boob again. I only took him off it 5 minutes ago. He's still happy, but he throws his head back facing me when he wants a drink. I think its cute!

    Anyone sitting up alone yet?? Jesse can do it for a minute or 2, the leans a bit. Sometimes he will catch himself & sit up a bit again. He's getting there. Both my girls were sitting by now.

    Oh & he plays peek-a-boo! He'll hold the blanket over his head & pull it down waiting for us to say peek-a-boo! Its so funny!!

    Hows Summer going Trina? Is everything Ok? You haven't been around much lately.
