Hi Girls,

So sorry to hear you have sick kiddies and bubbas I hope they get on the mend very soon, I hate the cold weather not that we are getting much up here in the sunny north!! I have been getting around in singlets and shorts.

Miss B is doing very well, nearly 7 1/2 months now! Dragging all around the house, doing my cleaning for me. No more teeth to report but in saying that I didn't even know she had teeth when her first came through at 4 1/2 months with the second close behind. Solids are going well but I have backed off on offering 3 times a day as I think she may be constipated? Has had formed little nuggets passed but not a big full nappy for abit over a week now but she doesn't seem in pain just that I can see her straining. What should I do? Am still breast feeding 5 times a day but she will only stay on for however long she wants and I do give her a sippy cup to play with and suck but I dont think she gets much water.

Must go and keep packing, we are going south for the weekend, Miss B's first plane ride aaaaahhhhh! I am so nervous! Are there any tips I should try? We dont get home til way past her bedtime so I am going to feed at the normal time on the plane and top her up when we get home just before bed? Am with the in laws so it should be very FUN FILLED (sarcasm *), I may miss the plane tomorrow, I wish. Hubby and I had a big blue after the 7 am breakfast date we had, cut short story - routine was put out which I didnt have a problem with but as I watched Miss B falling asleep in peoples arms I decided it was time to go and hubby said I am 'too controlling'. News flash - Miss B is content and happy (as inlaws say all the time because of me and the routine that they always want to destroy!! They are tryng to test me and crack me I'm sure, but NEVER will I, especially for the sake of MY DAUGHTER!! I feel better! Hope bubbas are good and talk soon
