Jodi- Glad to hear Emily was more settled last night, I guess having a cold too wouldn't have helped with how she has been. I found with Ash I couldn't bath her to close to bedtime cause would wind her up instead of down.

Seems a few of our little ones aren't into day sleeps! I still put Ash in for an hour or so just to rest and so I can get things done! Can't mop or clean toilets with her around.

AnnaT- Wow that sounds great, so how long does course go for or is it do at your own pace? Do you have to go do few births with a already experienced doula for your training? I was there when my sister gave birth to my nephew and it was greatest thing ever, you see this baby being born and at that moment you trully understand the whole miracle birth. Cause I was just so exhausted and half out of it after having Ash I never really had that feeling at the time of having her.

I've got mums group on this arvo. Didn't end up going to funeral, Ash is in funny mood so really didn't think it would be good having her carry on while they're trying to grieve. Df has gone to offer his support.
