Julia - you poor thing I dont have any advice for you cause we havent been through the teething thing yet, but I sure know that I am not looking forward to it!

Gosh - I am sooo not looking forward to the teething thing! So far there isn't even the slightest sign of a tooth. She has been really clingy lately but I have kind of put that down to the HUGE disruption of routine from last weekend. Things have settled. She woke at 145 last night and then at 715 this morning. Wednesday night she slept from 730pm until 530 am!! Woohoo. I have to admit that when she is "routined" she sleeps really well.
I know what you guys are saying re having a cold. But I can't blame BFing on having a continous cold for the last 6 weeks! I think C and I keep passing it back and forth from one another. And me being so run down - basically back at work almost full time AND doing all associated baby stuff as DH works so many hours (22 hours yesterday!!!!) doesnt really help me any.
Anyway - enough of my whinging and feeling sorry for myself. Today isnt too bad a day at work - ran out of things to do at around 10 so am pretty much waiting on return phone calls. Thought I would hop on here and see how everyone is going.
Had better go - lunch time!! Very important!! Hope you all have a great day. mwah

Julia Welcome to my world! we definately get more sleep if he is with me, also its too darn cold at night to keep feeding and resettling him especially if he is hysterical! i am trying to get to sleep in his cot but he has a lil sleep first then is up nearly every hour if i dont bring him to bed? so i spose i dont really have any advice just that he will probably get used to it and make even more of scene iykwim! But you have to do whats working right? oh how jealous i am of parents of babies who sleep all night

Julie- No cry sleep solutions is a great book that might have some tips. x

ETA- That goes for you too Julia!

I have tried reading it! But being so tired and just over it it not making any sense to me! Want to come show how its done Angelol x

I am NOOOOO expert! I think the expert left the building, stage left!
I think it's a bit of luck as well as good management. Best thing is, this wont last forever, there'll be a time when they would no sooner sleep in you bed than fly to the moon!

Yeah thats what i keep saying, even though its hard i know that he will be all grown up and sleeping through (yay for the sleeping part but for the grown up part!)
