Hello!!

Tan & Danni - I hope you guys get some answers and some sleep really soon!! This motherhood thing certainly is trying at times!! Lucky our bubs are so damn cute and the laughing and smiles make it all worth it!!! And Tan, for the record, I'm still jealous that you had a brief stint of 11 hour sleeps!! The most we've had is 6 hours in a row and even thats only been a couple of times!! I guess it does make it harder when you've had it and lost it though!!

After picking DH up from the airport at midnight the other night, I'm still trying to catch up on sleep too!!! Last night, I was sooo tired and just when we were trying to eat dinner, Luke decided he'd start screaming!! Its just so frustrating sometimes. DH came out with the best comment - "Lucky its not bin day or you'd be out with the recycling little man"!!

I've decided to try and feed Luke a little more regularly during the day and see if we can cut out the night feed. So far, he's just taken the extra feed and still demanding the night feed - so now I'm worried I'm going to overfeed him (now that we're on formula and all)!! Instead of feeding four hourly, he's now feeding three hourly. So instead of 4 feeds a day, he's having 5 a day - and then the extra one at night. I don't really know what to do anymore! He woke at 2am last night and there was nothing we could do to settle him. Three times he fell asleep in our arms but as soon as we put him down he screamed. Then when I finally gave him the bottle, he took it all - so he must be hungry, poor little man. I don't think we're ever going to be able to cut that feed out.

Anyway must go - sorry for the selfish post again.
