tara - its the age hun... frustration at this age reigns supreme for them...and for the mummys too! And she could be picking up on you to darlin - kids are like that - when the mummy is feeling good, so are the kidlets, not so good, and it all goes pearshaped.

Ann - yep Aston did go backwards for a while...ella is on her way to being mobile! then you will know you alive!!! Nathan crawled at 11mths, and walked at 15mths, for about a day - then he just ran everywhere!

Christy - glad you are going to the doc. you need to make sure that nothing else is going on hun, like eptopic pregnancy??? have u done a test?

Gigi - nathan hated getting his hands dirty - still does. hated having sticky fingers. I know its far easier said then done, but try not to stress about the whole eating thing. I swear it makes a difference to the outcome. I stressed soooo much with the whole food thing with Nathan - i dreaded meal times, because he wouldn't eat anything - up til he was one, he was pretty good, and then he started turning his nose up at EVERYTHING. it became so bad that i would just give him exactly what I knew he would eat (which in hindsight was not a good thing!) and by the time he was two all he would eat was - no I can't tell you because I feel so bad about it and embarrassed!! but by the time he was four I became very insistent on him having other things. in other words that was what was on offer, if your hungry you'll have it. sounds brutal I know, but by this time he was not eating anything that was fresh - so no veges or fruit! I think the only thing that is different this time round (and also with Laura) is my headspace. i'm not stressed about food (stressed about other things!- but not food!) Laura was a great eater too - but I think aston is probably even better - he wants to try everything we have!! I call him "MeToo" - having said all that, getting the whole food thing underway took ages with Aston...his little tummy took ages to adjust to eating food - he liked it, it just didn't agree with him, and we stopped and started lots of times before things settled down. I don't know if anything I have just said helps at all... i guess my main message is try to relax about it. I promise you that Bilby will not be four years old and not eating anything.

Jols - playing up were you?? I'm jealous. my bf is going to two parties this week. not fair. I so want to dress up and feel girly girl... nothing like getting a frock on, and some heels, and having some drinks to let the hair down. glad you had fun, even if the recovery wasn't that great!

Kim- glad you are having a good time away, enjoy having all those extra hands around and rest as much as you can.

Nelly - hope you are feeling better today hun. hugs. ring me if you need to chat or even if you don't... i'll be home this afternoon.

Blanche - how are you hun?

i don't think i missed anyone - sorry if i did. think that is all the regular posters. hi to all the irregular ones - jump on in and join in if you are able.

im off to the park for aston's third birthday party! spoilt boy! hopefully the weather stays good!
