    rach - I'll be honest here ... I have girlfriends who are always saying they have 'perfect babies'. They sleep through the night, when they're teething it doesn't bother them, they've never been sick, yada yada yada. And to be honest, I'm sick of hearing it. Every time I see them, I hear it. If I say Nina's had a bad night, they respond by saying 'oh ... I'm so lucky that ... sleeps through' When you've got a baby that doesn't sleep through the night, or whatever it is, you secretly envy those women that do have babies that sleep and don't want to hear them brag. Now I'm not saying that you sit there and brag, but if I have to hear my girlfriends brag about there babies any longer I'm gonna scream.
    Anyway, that's my two cents worth.
    Having said that though, your comments are worthy of being heard. Maybe when they've had a good night with bubs or when bubs has been really good for them, then make a comment about Jack being a good baby. Maybe just leave those comments to yourself when they're having a rough time. Just an idea.
    ETA: Just thought I'd add I'm talking about girlfriends I have IRL, not on hear. I love to hear from you girls when you're bubs are behaving themselves. It's just these girlfriends of mine who think that a baby not sleeping through the night is a 'bad baby'!!!

    To those who are clogged up and need to fart, I get like that heaps too. And I always get unclogged at the worst time, like when Heath wants to DTD or something. I'm very private in that regard and have never farted in his presence.

    caddie - Nina is a squealer too. When she's really happy (mainly when having nappy-free time) she'll lay there squealing while playing. It's cute but sometimes annoying.
