Hi all, thanks for all your support we tried it for two days and didn't see a huge improvement and now she is def teething, her poor little gums feel like mincemeat OUCH so I told Dh we will stop for a week and she if she settles better after this latest upheaval. I think this has really come to a head at the moment as it is so hot here and we have to have her windows open and it is really noisy outside & she has just learnt how to crawl and just about everytime I go in there she is on her hands and knees. ANother thing is she moves around so much that she keeps smacking her head on the walls of her cot. I moved DS into a single bed at 1 yr because of the same problem but we are thinking we might try bumpers??? Anyone else use these? I generally steer clear as we always live in hot places nd they just look like they would be heat-trapping. Plus are they a sids risk? I'm assuming not as they sell them ?

Karina - Ari loves playing in the grass too. I found my babybjorn look alike started hurting my shoulders with DS and we actually got a back carrier. That was 5yrs ag and they were quite bulky but now there are some really nice ones and we used that until DS was 2yrs

Caro - thanks for the advice re the meds and hope the moving is going well

Cass - how is Oskar going? Ari found it really hard to eat the jellies too so we stirred them up quite a bit so she could keep them in her mouth. It is such a PITA having to take baby food everywhere! Cant wait till we are onto finger food!

Cass_blob woohoo on the engagement congrats
