Marydean, I reckon they measure them differently at birth to a clinic measure, cause it's not like they grow that quick LOL. Erin was my shortest bub and she got really chubby looking really quickly and looked so cute because she was short and chubby kwim? Something I've been meaning to ask you too is how is your pelvis going? I was wondering if the pain etc goes soon after birth or does it take a while to settle down?

Pregpan, I've definately noticed the difference between newborn and baby too - especially with his skin. It's changed from that really downy soft newborn skin to soft baby skin and he's definately more alert too. I know he will grow up too quick for me and I don't want him too. I love the idea of walking to meet DH and then a coffee, I really miss doing that sort of thing. The sleep thing is all just luck too. Thankfully Paige and Alister were and are great sleepers - they more than made up for Erin who woke like clockwork every two hours.

A Q for those of you who know you're finished with the baby making, do you feel sad about it? I've been thinking about this the past few days and even though I know I am done, I just feel really sad at the thought that I will never be pg again, give birth again or hold another newborn of my own again. We've been discussing a permanent birth control solution and I just don't think I can make it final yet kwim?
