    Finally had a good nights sleep last night, yeah!!!

    Olive slept in her cot from 7pm until 4.45am! She then had a bottle in my bed and slept until 7:30am. We changed her bedding and put a pillow in her cot as she loves to sleep on my pillow in our bed. I also got some warmer, long sleeved sleeping bags and soft, warm blankets similiar to whats in my bed and it seems to have worked. Fingers crossed tonight is as good. She has got a touch of the cold so I hope it's not just cause she's sick.

    I went to an auction yesterday and brought a brand new single king koil ensemble for $30 so that if Olive is having a bad night at least DH and I can go in to Olive's room for some shut eye.

    1stbub - Good luck with the new business venture! Olive sometimes sleeps on her belly and now that she's past 6mths i'm fine with it. Have you tried putting him in his cot on his belly? Does he self settle? Do you use sleeping bags?

    Hi everyone else, i'm off to have a shower and do some more house work, DH is fishing so having a quiet day at home. Enjoy your Sunday everyone.

    Oh, What are you all hoping to get for mother's day next sunday? i'm not sure really, anything except a fluffy dressing gown! I just want a nice card more then anything else and maybe a special meal or something meaningful.

    Hi Girls,

    I've been MIA for about a week, you girls have been busy. I haven't had a chance to read all of your posts yet, hopefully Lara will go down for a sleep and I will get some quiet time. Hope you're all well.

    hiya hollye- jman owns a company that does IT stuff, they have a major server upgrade going on in one of the government departments......good money, but I hate him being away. This is the longest he has been away from jbaby, the girls at mg asked me how I was going to cope without him here, I just laughed, he doesnt do a bloody thing anyway!! I just miss him keeping me warm in bed at night! LOL

    The only good thing about teeth is when she is cranky.. you can say

    'She is teething" and she is ACTUALLY teething, not just that she is being a little turkey!!

    Hi all,

    Congratulations to all these little bubs who have their first teeth. V got her first tooth on Sunday. Boy was she cranky that day, with all good reason to, she just wanted mummy to hugs her all day. She is soo cute. Just love her to bits. She has definately been alot happier this week too. Full of smiles. hugs all.

    Yay V and Jorda on ur toothy pegs! B still has no teeth and no sign of them either (dont worry Hollye, Mia is not the only one)

    Starry - Jman is home today isnt he? did u survive the long cold nights alone or did u sneak Jbaby into bed with u too keep u company? hehehe

    Leigh - how are u and Lara going?

    Hollye - thanks for ur straight to the point txt msg yesterday - hahahaha

    B had a awful night last night - was up every couple of hrs! i think this is just the start of her waking up during the night again - i guess a week and a half of her sleeping from 2000-0600 was pretty good - damn i was taking that stupid stuff and for most of it i couldnt sleep at night anyway!

    Im off today to return her baby capsule - im actually a bit sad about that - no more little baby for me

    I couldve sworn I posted in here last night! but its not here!

    yep hj, jbaby has slept with me for the past 3 nights, jman didnt come yesterday (sniff) had to stay an extra night and day just to finish the job....
    took jbaby swimming yesterday! down at the local pool, took him about 10 mins to really get into it but then whoah!! he wouldnt stop splashing, trying to jump out my arms, he is a little fish
    after that we caught the train into town to go the womens and childrens for the sleep research thingy, they just basically tested all of jbabys reflexes and fine motor control, how well he sits, rolls over etc, how vocal he is, then gave me a reading test!
    anyway, now he has an ankle bracelet on that tracks his sleep pattern, I also have a sleep diary that I have to mark in when he goes down for sleep, when he is actually asleep and then when he wakes up, and its all b ecause he snores!!

    off to playgroup today, didnt go last week as my cousin was here from nt, so it will be good to see some of the other girls again.
    hope you all have a fantastic day.
    xx
