Belfie - see, you jinxed him by saying in a previous post that Xander was cruisey They all have bad and unsettled days just like us - we have aches and headaches and feel tired, so do they, they just can't tell us what is wrong yet. How nice of your neighbor to come in and help - and big claps to you for continuing to express, hard work with having to feed as well! How is he today?

Georgi - yeah I am a bit hit and miss after 4pm - usually I try and rock him in the rocker to sleep at the moment cos when DH is away I can't keep going to his room trying to shhh shhh him to sleep etc and still do homework, readers, cook tea etc I put him in the rocker and use my foot whilst doing stuff with the other kids .... it is bedlam but I know it will get easier So yeah that is why he gets soooo tired by 6.30 - cos he has only had a little sleep, but he doesn't really cry that much so that is good as I would get edgy too with the other kids ... but I shouldn't be too hard on him, he is only 2 months old after all. Last night he fed at 7pm and woke around 1am - thought I would try and give him dummy (he spits it out when he is going to deep sleep) - and he took it and stretched out to 2.30am - but wasn't game to try dummy again cos he is still so little so fed him - but he was snorting like a pig looking for it so he must of been really hungry !!

PP - Yeah, sometimes we have to let them have a little cry cos our other kids need some attention too. My DD has wet her pants a few times lately and I think it is attention so I am more mindful of giving her some one-on-one time too. Poor little darling. Glad to hear your DD is probably on the mend and getting the rest she deserves, but we need to talk to your little man about this 1.5 hours to resettle after a night time feed !!!

Well I have had a shower today, and been to post some mail and get some groceries - that is all I expect of myself today! I promised the kids Maccas with DH away so am not gunna stress about dinner either.

Gotta resettle the boy ...
