Hi girls,

I can't get a photo of Ashleigh smiling either, she only smiles when we are up close to her face talking to her. Its so beautiful, she's been doing it since day 3 and I can't say its wind cause she does it everytime someone smiles and talks up close to her.

Adele- hugs to you. Hope you get some rest, must be hard to have a newborn and a sick child to care for.

jodi_lee- Nina sounds like such a good girl! I hope Ashleigh starts to spread her sleeps out further, I have to remember she is only 2 weeks old so hopefully in a couple more weeks.

*Belle*- Hugs to you Belle, you poor thing, you'd think she'd be exhausted being up all those hours! When she's up does she seem settled or is she grizzling alot? I hope you get some tips from your MCHN. Just keep telling yourself things will eventually get easier although sometimes it feels like it never will.

chrissy- I hope caitlyn settles nicely in her cot for you. Sounds like she just loves her mummy and wants to be near you!

skorpy- i hope your little ones nose clears up soon, poor little guy must be so frustrating for him trying to sleep and feed.

Nelle- I get totally bored in feeds, glad its not just me cause I was wondering if it was a bad thing and thinking shouldn't I be enjoying this time? In the day I watch tv or read and at night I rest my eyes and nearly doze off or watch the clock thinking she should be finished soon and I can go back to sleep!

Hope everyone else is doing well. I see we still haven't heard from Merrie, she has dissapeared from the face of the earth! Hopefully she's had her bub and we will hear from her when she's out of hospital.
