Nikki - how did the sleep stay go?

[cindyb]

RAchael - you poor thing!!!!

I think the sleep school for nikki was going for 4-5 nights?? I might be making that up!

[Krisvee]

I think you're right Cindy - I think it was for the week!

Nothing much happening here...did the housework - well half the house and had enough! LOL! Thats enough for one day...my backs killing me now...

Oh Rach I hope everything comes back ok for you.

Krisite ease up on the housework you have done heaps lately and now you have bigger house more work..... so take it easy YEAH on the sleep in also thats excellent

Well I decided last night that Liam can just sleep thru the night... I am sick of getting up once or twice a night and it is killing me. I am tired all the time and going to bed so early to make up for it. So its tough love now. I am going to feed him before I go to bed whether he likes it or not and then he wont be fed again till 6.30-7am. I will just try and perserve with the dummy. I think he is old enough to cut that middle night feed. ( I AM SURE I WILL CAVE BUT POSITIVE THOUGHTS FOR NOW)

I will let you know how I go.
