Hello!!

Tan - Yeah, I got some cortisone (sp?) cream from the doctor for Luke and it seems to be working so far. Will probably investigate some of the natural remedies once this bad bout of it has cleared!!

Lulu - I took Luke to State Swim as it was the only place that didn't do lessons by the 'term' and you can just start whenever you want. They are sooo fantastic, I love it and its just up the road from me (in East Freo) - I think they have a few around the place though!!

Sorry, no more time for personals (yet again). Luke's rash and ezcema is starting to clear, finally and he's much happier again. He even slept last night from about 8pm until 5.30am, which is great and starting to happen a little more regularly!!

Hope all is wonderfully well with everyone!

Hi everyone,
Well we have had a very interesting few days. Wednesday we went back to sleep school and Olivia was so naughty that we had to go back again on Thursday. We were there from 9am to 4.30pm for two days . Wednesday was an absolutely nightmare and she didn't sleep a wink from 9am to 7pm, then was awake 7.30pm to 11pm but then slept until 6.30am thankfully. Thursday was much improved and she actually had a two hour and a one hour sleep. Last night was good and she was ony awake for an hour and slept until 6am. So I think we are finally getting there and there is now light on the horizon for us. I am so glad than we are getting there because Olivia is now rolling and she was starting to get tangled up in her wrap and I was terrified she would suffociate (sp?). They have warned us to give it 5 full days and 5 full nights because we could see any improvement but I think the penny is starting to drop and hopefully it won't take 5 days.
Livvy is now eating three meals a day with 5 b/f and is absolutely thriving the little piggy. Her teeth are moving around on her but none have broken the surface. She is rolling over and over and over, it's so cute how clever she thinks she is. When she is on her belly the little arms and legs are going a million miles an hour but going nowhere. I don't think it will be too long until she is on the move little so many other little one's on here.

That is more than enough about us, let me catch up on some personals.

Kirsten - Like all the other girls have said don't worry about Mia not rolling. A lot of babies don't roll until they crawl. Mia will roll when she is good and ready and not a minute before. If she wasn't doing ANYTHING at all I would worry but look at her she's sitting, standing, giggling, talking and so much more. She's doing brilliantly and so are you. Just tell the health nurse what they want to hear not what is actually going on, that's what I do. My niece refused to crawl until just recently (she's 11 1/2 months) and she only crawls to the closet object which she can use to pull herself up and then she walks around holding onto to everything.

Tan - Today is the big day at sleep school isn't it?? Best of luck darl. I really hope that they give you some amazing tips to help Izzy settle and sleep for you. I see from your ticker that she is rolling and commando crawling. How exciting! You baby proofed your house?

Michelle - How is your gorgeous little man going? Where can I find the chickweed ointment you were telling us about. I'll try anything to try and clear Livvy's skin for her.

Lulu - That's great that Izzy is starting to eat vegies for you. She might just not like the cereal not that I can say I blame her. It's tastes awful. How many teeth does she have now? Is Izzy getting mobile yet? Gee I can't believe you are finding out Ned's flavour on 5th December, I mean your pg is just flying. Hope you are feeling okay and Izzy is sleeping well for you still. She's a great sleeper isn't she?

Jen - How are you going with your b/f and the abscess? Have you gotten a second opinion? What have you decided?

Kelly - Congratulations on your first tooth Luke you big boy. Great news that his ezcema is starting to clear up. Poor livvy is covered in it and it is taking ages to clear even with her cortisone cream. How is Luke going with solids?

Danni - YAY on Mason rolling over. Mason and Livvy rolled over for the first time on the same day. Does Mason have any teeth yet? How are you going with the sleeping??

I know that i've missed some lovely ladies and babies and I'm so sorry but Olivia has just started screaming.

Chat soon,
Dan
