Hi!

We are doing pretty well. Still feeding over night, generally has a feed before I go to bed at 9.30pm-10.00pm then feeds again at about 1.30am then sleeps through till about 4.30am/5.00am then up for the day at 8am. No dummy calls or settling in between feeds so pretty happy with that.

Days are pretty good most of the time. He generally sleeps 1.5-2hrs but often has a carp sleep where I can't resettle him and that's usually about 1 hour. So getting better I guess. He's generally up for 1.5 hours, sometimes a bit longer if he's coping OK. Soon as I see his tired signs, straight to bed. I don't think it'll be too long before he can cope with 2 hours! They grow up so fast...

Trish - sorry to hear K isn't well. Hope you are both on the mend soon. Glad to hear your nights are improving, how are his day sleeps going? Holy cow - 17kg??!! That's amazing! I'm pretty much down to pre-prg/pre IVF weight so am pretty happy. Could lose about 4kg more and I'd be feeling fantastic! But don't have the time or energy for much exercise at the moment, maybe when L is a bit older I'll go back to the gym.

Rebecca - the 'obese' label is thrown around a bit too much these days I think. And I agree, the BMI isn't a very good indication, it doesn't take into account someone's overall build. My DH for example is a huge guy (build wise) and 110kg is pretty light for him!

Kim - very tempted by the GDUNH but am going to pass! Have heard how addictive it can be and I just don't have the cash!

Becky - I'm glad your night improved. We had a week of that, every time we'd try to put him down for the night he'd just cry, took me over an hour to settle him. Thankfully seems to be passing, he's been good the last two nights.
