Hello ladies, hope everyone is having a great weekend. this is my second attempt at writing this as I lost the first one - stupid computer. Grace is 4 months old today and....she rolled for the first time this morning . Clever girl. Both DH and I didn't see it though, pmsl. I walked back into the room to find her lying on her tummy, happy as larry dribbling all over the place. She gave me a massive smile when I walked up to her like she knew that what she had done was a big deal. So proud. Other than that her legs are getting so strong. In the last week I have been standing her up on the floor in front of me and initially she could only hold herself up for a few seconds, now she can hold herself up for a few minutes. DH took the cutest photo of her when she was standing which I am hoping to get onto my photo's soon so I will let you know when I do. Well, we have given up the fight with getting Grace to sleep in her cot in the day. We put her in a sleeveless sleeping bag and she has been sleeping in her rocker. I am just happy that she is getting some sleep. Do not want another repeat of Thursday night. Who says she needs to sleep in her cot in the daytime anyway?

DH and I went to the movies and out for tea last night which was rather nice. It was rather weird though being at the movies, it felt like forever since we had last been. My parents didn't have too much trouble with Grace other than some crying on and off for 2 hours after we left! She missed us. She was happy once she had her bath though and then went to sleep immediately. Like Bec said, just got to go with what works.

Cass,I don't see why it should be a problem to have your teeth done, I would imagine that any effect from the anaesthetic would barely make it to the milk as it is a local thing. Check with the dentist though but it should be fine. Obviously you have to do what is comfortable for you but I would be suprised if Oskar wouldn't bf again after a bottle or 2. Grace has had a few bottles recently as we have been going out and we have no problem with the bf. Your bf is well established so nipple confusion shouldn't be a problem.

Karina, how annoying that your in-laws couldn't mind their own business. Glad you are happy to be back. We have avoided the shops since the toy sales started but we are venturing down tomorrow and may have to have a look.

Jo, good luck to your sister. Glad you had a nice day at the nursery. Happy birthday to Joshua.

Nat, I agree, if Grace started biting me I would be weening her quick smart!! You poor thing, I hope she stops doing that to you.

Bec, yay on the expressing. I find the more I do it the better I get - got 180mls out last night (mind you, had missed a feed as we were out). It'll get easier.

Little miss has just woken from another sleep - she has been sleeping wonderfully the last 2 days. Must be time for a feed, bath then to bed so we can have tea. Have a good night ladies.
