Jane - welcome to our little family. Sorry to hear Ella's not well. Its awful isn't it. I hope she gets over her cold quickly and you both get some rest today.

Lee - my nappy bag is a Basque one I got from my Myer. I was actually looking for a nice, big handbag that I could use as a nappy bag. Picked up this bag thinking it was great with all the pockets, and then realised it was actually a proper nappy bag. I love it.

Tan - sorry you didn't get into the sleep school you were after. Hopefully Izzy will turn a corner soon and you won't need any help. Otherwise, can this woman come to see you say only once and take it from there?

Kelly - sounds like you had a lovely birthdlay - lucky girl.

Things are a bit disappointing here. After 5 days of Izzy being on a combination of soy and "normal" formula her reflux, the normal one obviously built up to the point where it really aggravated her reflux again. Poor bubby was back to screaming pain. So, she's back on full soy again and fortunately the reflux has settled down already. I'm so disappointed. It started really well and I was hopeful that her little body had got strong enough to deal with it. Its certainly going to make introducing solids a little interesting. Her teeth are giving her hell at the moment too so the poor little poppet is really in the wars. She's so incredibly good natured with it all though. My mum was up the other day and saying (not that she's a biased granny or anything!!) what a brilliant baby she is. Of course, then went on to say that if you get one great baby your next one is usually a monster - nice comforting words from my mum!! Otherwise Izzy has just had a measuring day and at 5.5 months she was 6.48kgs and 66.5cm long - light but long for her age. She certainly doesn't get long legs from her mummy!!

Hope everyone's having a great weekend.
