Hi all,

welcome Chels and sophie, sounds like sophie is doing fab

Cass_blob - the oragel is amazing OMG I actually just gave the nighttime tube to a fried of mine witha 1 yr old who is cutting his molars and is in terrible pain as the daytime is enought for us. you only need the tiniest bit. My friend actually used it on herself too as she having problems with tonsils she said it was awesome (would have been good for you before your wisdom teeth came through) Hope your feeling better. There is nothing worse than food poisoning (or any stomach bug) when trying to look after a littlie :-(

Caro - love the new photo in your sig of michael - is that from his christening?

Well after 2 days of no sleep we spent all day just trying to get ari to sleep and stay tha way and I have discovered the only way is to cover her head with a blaket (not smothering her obviously) but she is seriously Overstimulated at the moment. Anyway she has been down for a couple of hours without stiring - (praising God almighty for that)

Cass- it's agoinising isn't it! I hate solids, they are messy, take organisation and forward planning, there messy and I'm contantly worrying about what she is eating, how much too much too early etc but she loves it. Pumkin is by far her fav. Potato makes her gag (maybe that's just how I cook it though) she had some banana today with a bit of cereal srinkled on it. I hate that farex stuff have you ever tasted it - yuck but I do worry about iron stores etc so I sprinkle it on her other foods.

OK now I'm rambling, mightgo work on my assignment. Talk soon
