Hi guys
Well a little more sleep under the belt after a night out at our friends in the bush while DH and Maia shared a night at home. My dad is a GP and recommended I try a kids dose of Demazin before bed and see if that works as would be OK in breastmilk and might be enough just to tip me over. So either it worked or I was way overdue for a sleep. Still woke up to express before I exploded but the fact I was actually "waking up" was so great.
Maia decided to be a ratbag and not take the bottle for her dad so he didn't have a great night so might have to get back to giving a bottle every now and then.
So anyway thanks for all your tips - obviously I am breastfeeding, I don't drink coffee - well decaf sometimes, work is nothing stressful to be worrying me so maybe its hormones?? I have absolutely no idea.

Been thinking about the childproofing thing myself. Main concern is fencing off the cat food and litter tray - can just see her now crawling in there and having fun :-) Lots of cords etc to work out where to put them - that will be a challenge.
She's rolling everywhere but no crawling - though i don't think it will be that far off at the rate she is going.
I used to eat flies off the windowsill apparently - thankfully our windowsills are at my waist height so no extra protein coming from there just yet. Though I am sure she will find something as equally gross to eat when the time comes.
Going to try and give her some water in a cup/sipper in between feeds soon. Especially after we go for walks in this warm weather as given I get so thirsty doing it, I figure that she must too. She is so interested in my bottles/food just need to take the next step. Just bought a little freezer to store extra meat, breastmilk and gonna start pureeing some vegies while they are cheap and store them up ready for the little missy. We don't have the prviledge of having fruitnveg shops or markets and fresh stuff is pretty exp up here so have to take advantage os specials when they come. What do you recommend for first vegies to freeze?
Arte - good luck with the packing/moving. I have done it so many times I feel for you, thankfully I was without baby. My sister is currently going through it with nearl y 1 year old twins - poor thing!
Hope you've had a good weekend ladies...
