Nat, you are a champoin for getting Em to sleep that long! Well done! - and who cares if stuff doesn't get done? I used to, but I don't get time like this again - ever.

Vic, Darc and Adam have been on the same drugs cos she's put on about that as well! Her dad is also 6'2" and a unit! Only problem is is that is family is all (every last one of them) morbidly obese, so I'm a bit paranoid.

Kell, it isn't dumb to be proud of that. Every day I get through I'm proud of.

Sheree honey - OMG, you poor love!! Hope all is settling a bit better. Have been thinking of you.

Mummy4life, I just finished my thankyous too. I needed to do something creative as an outlet. I only did it for about 10 minutes most nights and I eneded up hand making over 40 cards. I'm pretty proud of myself....now if I could just find some creative juice for my scrapbooks....

Vic good idea. I have wanted to ask for ages, but being new to the boards didn't know if it was rude or not..

1. name, age and family stats.
Kim 28 and Cameron 31, Darcy 6wks and 3 days. We were married in October 2004 after meeting at work at the end of 2002.
2. how did you come up with bubs name
We couldn't agree on any! Had to be short and not have any L's or end in s. Not my first choice but Cam loves it, so after what I went through I get my first choice for our next daughter.
3. do you have family close by
Inlaws - too close, my family - 20minutes away.
4. how many kids do you plan to havewe had planned for 4, but we might just see how we travel with this one....5. are you BF or FF
BF - after expressing for 3 weeks after nipple issues she fially learnt and is now great with it. Very very glad I persisted - never thought I would want to and enjoy it so much.
6. do you use cloth or disposable nappies

disposable - my washing sits in the machine for way more than an hour!!!
7. Occupation
Constable - due to return in March 2007, second job (first love and trade) nursing - will I go back? not without retraining (may even consider midwifery in the future)

As for the nappy rash, turns out it is dermatitis. I have psoriasis, and the poor little buggar just had a reaction where the wee is. Of to the chemist we go for some cortisone cream.
Darcy also managed an 8 hour sleep last night - and that would be because she doesn't do more than cat nap during the day. However it was from the 5pm feed until 2am so we just need to shift it forward a few hours and I'll be laughing....

On my own again this weekend...
