Gosh Noni I hope you get that sorted out, hope it was all a heat of the moment thing. Let us know how you get on. xxx and
Yay Arte for arriving at the other end! How exciting. Good to hear W travelled so well. Enjoy your settling in days, when everything is new and exciting!
Gracie,far out what a marathon. We watch for the tired signs, then a quick nappy check and sometimes a feed (depending on how long it's been) and then we wrap her up (folded so the arms stay under) and I pat and jiggle her for a couple of minutes then into her cradle. We have this toy that plays Fur Elise when you pull the string, so that goes on. If she's snoozy I just walk out, if not a bit more pat and rock in the cradle. If she cries, I let her go for a minute or so, then back in for another pat (without picking her up). Just until she looks more relaxed then out again. If she's really boucing around in there wide awake, we get her up for another 20-30mins then try again.
Cally thanks for that tip, I didn't even think of Myers. I bet there's one in DJs too.
Agnes, good luck with your child care search, that's on my list of things to do...still not sure when I'll go back to work yet - some things happening with DHs work (he might be going away for a few months again) so really not sure how to proceed at this point.
Hope everyone's having a lovely weekend, special shoutout to Jazmum (thought of you at Chinese soup last night), LP if you're reading and Queenie (hope all's well hun). xxx
ETA Katie, well after saying about the SafeNSound antiroll thingy I've now renamed it the UNsafensound and removed it from the cradle. She took a while to settle this afternoon and I went in there after 10 mins, and she had got it out from under her bum and it was up near her face (!!!!!!) That's that, then.
