I just have to say how great it is to have all you girls to talk to. I know if I'm feeling like crap I can come on here and get lots of support. You all make me feel good about what I do,(not like those in-laws!) And I like the fact how we don't judge each other but accept each others way of raising there bubs.

That said I've had a good day today, although Ash hasn't slept much, my sister and nephew came over so the day went quick, we went out to the park and fed the ducks and Ash was really content to just sit and watch the ducks and watch the trees blowing.

Jodi- How has Nina gone with drinking from a sippy cup? I was recommended to try one with EBM as an alternative to a bottle as Ash wouldn't take one.

Anna- Sounds like you've tried everything with the teething, once it comes thru he'll prolly have a huge sigh from relief.

Helen.p- Thats an awful story! You poor thing. Its hard when its all new. Til i came on here and read up in books i always thought you would have to leave a baby to cry it out at some stage, glad to see i don't have to.
