Lol Chrissy, I don't mean to be sneaky, trust me, this time around I am happy to wait! I'm so tired, I can't possibly fathom the thought of a tiring labour!! Thanks though. Hope you get Caity sorted really quickly.

Can't help you with the vegies Kell, Riv eats everything. As for the liners, some creams come off onto a nappy and kinda block it up, affecting aborbency, and others don't. For example, I have a Gaia Soothing Lotion (which is great), and that clogs the nappy kinda, like I see white marks where there's residue there. And I have an Aromababy Balm (which is also great), but that doesn't come off the bottom onto the nappy as far as I can tell. If in doubt, use a liner I guess.
What colour is your pawpaw ointment jar? I *think* I remember hearing that the red jar might clog nappies because it's petroleum based, but the yellow jar might not because it's not...or something. Maybe even just get a liner or piece of material, smear your creams on it, chuck it in the wash, and see what comes out and what doesn't?

Yep I was up early for me yesterday, and today was another late one though, Riv was up with teething in the night. I worry about me sleeping in these days, I wake to hear him yelling (just the usual 'mum! I'm up!' kind of yell, which usually dies down as he finds something to play with for 10mins then starts again for another min, then dies down...) but I wonder how long that goes on for before I actually wake, you know? I'm so exhausted, I hope he's not yelling for too long. At least he doesn't sound unhappy, can't miss those cries.
And I suppose I should be glad he's getting these eye teeth now and not once the baby's here...

Try not to worry Rach, people are getting those moley/spot things taken out all the time. Not fun though, hope you have fun on your hols.

Hi to everyone else! Just waiting for a little man to be ready for his nap, he's currently wandering round the house and playing with whatever takes his fancy.
