kim - oh god, i hope there is only 1 in there! I agree with Christine, from what i have heard and read you can be quite a bit bigger sooner with 2nd and consecutive bubs. If i were you id be panicking too though, i was having nigtmares about having twins rght up til Archie was born!

shazz - Sara is still alive i see her on facebook a bit, haven't seen nat for a few weeks now, im sure they are just leading very busy lives.

christine - glad you enjoyed spending time with all 3 kids together, wow at the cost of the orthotics! I have my fingers crossed that Arch doesn't have feet issues now!

I am at peace with Archie's new found anxiety over sleeping in his own bed, as tiring and frustrating as it has been, i am now just going with the flow. Last night he went to bed with us, then we put him in his bed, then we put him on the fold out sofa in our room, then he came into bed with us. Today, no day sleep, fell asleep in our bed at 7. Looks like cosleeping is the go for us for a while!
