Hi girls!!

Once again, long time, no chat!!

Good to hear to that you and your bubs are all goin well!!

Sienna is such a joy! She's just over 5 months old (scary how time flies) and she's a happy little bub. Altho 'little' is not really the word, she already weighs 8kg so she's your stereotypical 'fatty formula bub' lol. We absolutely love her to bits and she's so much fun. She's rolling all over the place - it's always interesting to see what position she'll be in in the cot in the morning.

I've just this week started her on Farex and a little bit of pear. She's showing a lot of interest, she just has to work out how to keep it in her mouth, lol. She STILL hasn't slept through the night *sigh*, but for awhile she was sleeping in 6 hourly blocks which was wonderful. Now she's back to four hours at a time, but I think she's teething which doesn't help.

I've started back at work, only two days a week, Tues and Sat. Either my Mum or MIL will have bub on Tuesdays, and hubby will have her on the Saturdays so we're very lucky not to have to put her in professional care. It's been hard to go back to work, but the time away from Sienna has made me appreciate her so much more!!

I've just recently been diagnosed with Postnatal Anxiety - apparently it's a very mild form of PND but I had no idea, coz I wasn't crying or feeling sad, just feeling majorly STRESSED!! which I thought was normal for new mums, but my mum suggested I go speak to a councellor (sp?) which I did, and lo and behold, I actually had a prob. So Smoz, I'm also on ADs, but I haven't breastfed since Sienna was 6 weeks old, so I had no concerns there. I have been feeling heaps better, just a little less on edge all the time which is nice. I'm sure I'm probably much nicer for hubby to live with too, just less snappy etc.

Ummm, what else...we're still waiting to build our house (hence me going back to work - always about the money!), but hopefully we'll get started in the next couple of months. Plans are in council, just gotta sort out the mortgage.

So yeah, that's me in a nutshell. Now I'm back at work, I might be able to get on this site a bit more and stay a bit more in the loop, I finally have the net at home, but now I never have the time to use it!! lol

Anyways, take care girlies, thanks for reading my looooonnnnng post!! xoxo
