    Welcome Kat. I just looked at the pics of Dom and he's gorgeous.

    PP - I agree that time with family is more important than money. That's why I am happy that he'll have an extra day off a fortnight. Though now it looks like he won't have to take the pay cut after all because he's needed full time. Ah well.. But I am so looking forward to having DH home for 2 weeks over Xmas and New Year.

    Hollye - I hope Mia's injections go OK today! Hopefully she'll just sleep a lot afterwards like Maya did.

    Yesterday was my last day of mother's group but we've organised to meet again on the 7th January. I'm glad it'll keep on going cos I need the social outing!

    Tomorrow is my work's Xmas lunch and I'm going. I'm hoping Maya will be OK and will let me eat my lunch and talk to people!

    I have a question....

    i went to our BIG chemist here and they have an early childhood nurse there... and she said to me she was concerned with how Jack holds his head, when i am holding him he holds his head back slightly... which has ALWAYS been the way he holds his head...
    now all she said to me was she was concerned about the way he holds his head and that he was "floppy"
    What should the head control of a nearly 9 week old bub be??I have now booked in to see our GP as i am worried something is wrong...
    I told her we had a 6 week check up with our paed..BUT she still went on to say what she did...

    ethans head is still floppy kat. BUt if i have him on my shoulder like i am burping him... he can hold it upright like a soldier standing tall for a few seconds.

    But i put it down to his a a belly sleeper and gets 10-12 hours belly time a day to practice neck strengthening.

    i think usually the head isnt head up fully till 5months... does that sound right?

    well we are still struggling to drink most of our bottle...
    this morning he left 60mls... and just now he left another 60mls...
    he gets to a certain point drinking and that is it..does NOT want a bar of it anymore...
    I have just been on the phone with my husband in tears...i just don't know what to do..i get soo frustrated when he won't drink then we both end up in tears and he is screaming... he is sound asleep now...
    We are off to the Drs later as i 'feel' something isn't right...

    PP - Zander is fully b/f - his are like light brown verging on yellowish runny chunky peanut butter best way I could describe it.

    katones - I think that MCHN has got you all stressed and worried hun. Jack not drinking all his bottle is fine, we aren't hungry all the time and neither are they - as long as he is still weeing and his lips arent looking dry (dehydration sign) - he is getting what he needs. I can't even tell how much Zander has so just have to trust him he knows when to stop. re the head thing, Zander holds his head up on belly for about a minute then collapses, tries again etc - but also depends on what time of day it is - I read my other kids scrapbooks and they were around 3 months when they could hold their heads up on their bellies for a good amount of time. But, I'm not too sure what the off to one side comment is about so yeah, get it checked if it is bothering you

    Kat - how much are you giving him
    perhaps you are trying too much?
    if he is leaving 60 ml each time. i would make up 60ml less.
    how often is he feeding.?
