Danni - glad you had a better night last night hun. Shopping is good therapy in one way and bad in others isnt it?!

Lulu- you poor thing. These little cheeky monkeys just test us to the limits dont they. I guess the one consolation is that each day/night is so different. Ive finally accepted that I wont be getting my 12 hour nights back for a loooong time and if I have to hold/feed her to sleep then so be it. I wont be able to do when she is much bigger, and now that Ive accepted it, Ive relaxed more and if anything since then she has improved too. Its like she picked up on me being stressed and upset. Anyway not sure any of that helps :hugs: Have to say though I had a little giggle at the PMT comment PMSL - I cant imagine!!

Lee - Ethyn sounds like a healthy thriving boy! Dont worry about peoples comments or even those lines!! Most are based on US charts anyway!! If he is happy and healthy who cares!! Once you start solids initially hun, you dont actually replace a feed, rather you add it after a feed. I think after a few weeks you then drop the feed, once they are getting enough nutirition from the solids to replace the feed if that makes sense! Does your MCH centre run any solids classes?? Ours do so it might be worthwhile finding out about them.

Kelly - Yay for Luke! What a clever man! Izzy still makes a face like Im feeding her dirt so I dont give her too much or push her to eat it, although she moved it around her mouth alot today and actually swallowed a bit more -maybe 1/2 a teaspoon! Ah well! on his sleeping too hun! Are you finding you are able to sleep as well now!?? Izzy is waking 2 times a night on average. The hardest thing for me at the moment is that the time varies every night! Arrggh, at least she goes straight back to sleep after her feed.

Jen - I hope your op went really well hun and you are home safe and recovering quickly

to everyone else!!!!

Well we are just fine and dandy!! I posted about my glass incident in the general chatter section but OMG there was glass all over my kitchen when I dropped a heavy glass lid that shattered!!! Izzy was in her bouncer and Im not kidding there wasnt a speck of glass on her or the bouncer she was in! Can you believe that - it literally looked like a shield was around her. I should have taken a photo coz you could almost see the glass going around her and the bouncer. I still cant believe it - I feel sick at the thought of what might have been.

I also found a gorgeous friend from high school on FB!! We lost contact over the years (13!!) but are so glad to have found each other again. She has a little boy who is 2 weeks younger than Izzy but she lost a little boy 15 minutes after birth, before Ethan was born, poor thing, I cant imagine. She lives in Brissy so I might have to convince Al that we need a holiday!!

Well this has turned into a novel so I had better go - getting my hair done today - whoo hoo!!
Catch all of you gorgeous girls later on!! xoxo
