Cath - i didn't say it was cruel to wake your baby, I was just wondering if anyone did. Also, Mateo never screams from hunger - I always feed him as soon as he wakes up. He screams when he has bad tummy pains or if he is really over tired but now that his colic has settled neither of those things are happening very often at all.

Thanks for the pointers Trish - things do seem to be working well for him. Hope you get another 71/2 hours in tonight and I'm hoping for another 5 hour one!! :-)

Viv - so glad you are bonding with BF thing. Yeah, I can't imagine not being able to see his little face - it would make the world of difference.

Kim - Gorgeous glamour shots - a true yummy mummy!!!
