Gigi - don't know who you ask for the debrief. My labour was *tricky* but nothing like yours, but i dont remember much of it let alone why certain decisions were made. Luckily DH was there and told me why they decided to do this or that...Hope you get some answers soon.

All Victorians - Hope you get some cooler weather soon. Its quite warm here in Sydney and it doesnt help to have a baby with heat rash and a sweaty head. Lots of cool wipe downs (even if she doesnt like it)

Christy - we have workers from the early childhood centres like that here too. They are useless - now I only see them when i need to weigh and measure Ella. Even then they told me i dont need to do it every month! Go figure! I said "But i want to". The only good thing they did was to put together our mothers group. They are my pillar of strength

As for us, Ella has gone back to waking every 3hours in the night (before she was sleeping 10hrs)! so i'm exhausted. Dont really know why she's waking so frequently but i'm just going with it at the moment and hopefully it will pass (it did before)
