    PP - I did a quick search and looks like that ebay store is the cheapest. I might buy one to try. And I know babies change all the time. I was just used to the old routine and now I have to figure out this new one. They definitely do keep us on our toes!

    katones - I really can't believe someone said that about Jack. That is such an ignorant thing to say. Men wear jewellery all the time - gay or straight! Jack will turn out how he turns out - whether or not you put a teething necklace on him.

    teru - Until this week Maya was sleeping well during the day. But that's all out the window at the moment. She's not even sleeping well at night.

    That's the most bizarre thing I've ever heard! He's a baby for cripes sake! I reckon he's more likely to be a happy well-adjusted child because his mother his looking after his teething needs! stomps around on her soapbox for a bit!

    SamiH - we don't know quite everything... what's for dinner?

    I've got my new PC now - FIL just set it up for me while MIL fed X... spoilt recuperating lady am I! So now i'll be posting craaaaazy while i'm taking it easy

    I am now a puddle of sweat. Maya finally fell asleep - on me. And it's so hot with the two of us next to each other! But she needs the sleep!

    pp - On my web searching I found the wrap for $24.95 at a store, so I might buy it next time I go to the shops. Those wraps sound good.

    belfie - Yay for new PC and for being waited on.

    Woohoo tanya - what store?
    You will need a large i would say as E is in a large. (just check as often the smaller sizes are cheaper! :P)

    There are snug as a bug too but they have legs in them rather than a sleeping bag bottom

    Well i am wet and sandy as ashley and i just spent an hour in the sandpit which has filled with water from the rain lol... and no we are having banana iced smoothies! mmmmmmmmmmm

    I thought I saw PP mention those wraps cause I've been using them since BJ came home. DH bought me a Small, Medium & Large when I was 8wks pregnant. I use them at night so he doesn't get out of them. They're a bit hot for the day time. I have the green one too. It's so nice. That's the large. The small I have yellow, & the Medium is white with planes, trucks & cars on it. Funny enough DH thought that was neutral , we obviously didn't know the sex then.

    I saw Renstar & Ava today. Oh my, she's just soooo cute. I CAN NOT believe BJ was nearly half her size. She was sooooo tiny. I just can't fathom he was that small. Amazing how easily we forget.

    Georgi - we dont use them day time either - we use a light muslin wrap for his arms - legs free and air con on 25

    I use the swaddleme as kinda like a que for 'night time sleep' if that makes sense

    as for trucks lol... very cute perhaps to a boy it is neutral! haaha

    me fretting...

    geeesh. You know how i said I wasn't going to worry about the u/s for X's hip. Well I've changed my mind haven't I. DH is unavoidably out tonight, I'm still taking it easy... and my imagination is running away with me. I KNOW there's no point worrying if he's got hip dysplasia (DDH) - there's no history of it in our family... BUT I don't know anyone who's had an u/s then got the all clear (probably cos they don't need to talk about it at all!). I only know of babies who had the u/s and turned out to have DDH... so I'm feeling a bit nervous... and I'm googling which is such a bad idea

    Can someone pls tell me I'm being stupid and not to worry? Ta!
