Dan - would LOVE to catch up, Danni is coming to visit me in the next hour or so will try to sort something out. Kristen, Sez, Tara?? are in melbourne too and might be intersted?? Anyone else??
On the up for 1-1/2 hours..... Izzy has been up sooo much longer than that..maybe shes then overtired when i try to put her down..glad you could get some advice too - heres to hoping it works - mmm i jsut spent 15 minutes pacing with Izzy to get her to sleep - great habit i will have to break at some stage although my theme and philosophy at this stage is whatever works = espeically if it means your sanity!

Mel - glad your back is a bit better - must have been just awful you poor thing. Good luck to with the day night thing...so many adjustments hey!

Ash - vent away! thats what we are here for but i do hope your ad's work and you are feeling lots soon andhope Blake is too... glad you got on the beyond blue site too...the more resources you turn to the better and more supported you will feel (i hope)

Lulu-good to hear from you hope you are going well too!

Sarah - so glad you were able to get confirmation from the specialist - its awful when you get conflicting advice...hope the plaster isnt too uncomfortable for Noah. Big :hugs: to you both..hope you get some rest too hun. I wonder if youcan make it to Melbourne when Dan is here in July - maybe time a specialist appointment for that day!!??

Kelly - Good luck getting the attachment worked out - Im about to call the maternal helath centre and make an appointment to see an LC - although my right isnt as bad as it was its still really sore and Im sick of putting up with it , plus i want to get some sleeping advice too. Yay on the driving - i was a bit nervous yesterday, but like i said i called the insurance and they said its fine as long as i wasnt advised not to. Im more worried about other d**heads than me crashing becasue I was driving like a granny!
Anyway have fun getting out and about babe!

Kristen - the video and pics of Mia are GORGEOUS!! She is so you too!! Her eyes are the same! FUnny, Izzy has my mouth and chin - a combo of mine and Als nose and Als eyes! Al is half japanese so Im so curious to see if that will come out as she gets older!!

All other gorgeous mums and bubs - Huge hellos and hugs!!

Anyway ladies - we went to my mums for dinner last night - I fed Isabelle at about 730 and she fell asleep and we came home and she slept til 230!!! OMG my boobs were killing me and sorry to the girls having trouble expressing but she only feeds on one side so had to express to get relief and got 80mls in 5 minutes from one side...crazy. Have frozen it and am going to stockpile for a night out with the girls soon. She also got up at 730, slept for an hour and i fed her again and shes now fighting sleep AGAIN...Its really getting beyond me how to get her to sleep during the day... shes showing all signs of being exhausted from being awake since 930 but just wont sleep...

Well have a great day ladies -will talk soon Im sure.
