Hi Girls!

That's an awesome recipe Pregpan! will have to give it a go...also the chopped liver yum! it reminded me of the dinners my grandmother used to make (apparently it is popular in holland...). so will have to give that a go with Leila. she is the same as N, wanting the chunkier stuff that she can pick up with her fingers.
LOL at you also buying the bubbaroo! i got it on the web sale that the site was having. but with p&h it was still $55. still cheaper than the grobag and i think that it is soo gorgeous. she has the pure white range as the colour ones were still $60ish. but maybe i need a smaller size as i have the 6-18 month 2.5 tog and her head slips down underneath, so i may need to wait a bit longer before using it...what about you??
i had a swaddle bag for leila but i found that it wasn't strong enough for her houdini movements so just stuck with swaddling her in two wraps (one over the other). luckily being in canberra it was cool enough to get away with!
a friend of mine has the joey swag and she loves it, so maybe it is better than the one i got...

AF is well and truly here, happened at around 6 months...urggghh.

Noni: cool, teeth! still waiting here....

MD: i went to the lanyon one with leila. it was a 2 hour session and i found it pretty helpful. the bubs didnt need to be there as it was basically a session where we told the lady what probs we were having with sleep and she would try to offer some solutions and you see a pretty good video that shows self settling. i found that it was the corner that needed to be turned for us, and within 2 and a bit weeks of going there and using the sheet she gave us leila was only waking once through the night and then slept through fully from abut 10 weeks (we went when she was 6 weeks old...we got desperate quickly LOL!!). of course we still get the occassional night where she wakes at 3 or 4 am, but this is usually when she is a bit unwell...i really hope that it helps, at the very least, you'll meet other sleep deprived mums and dads and you can compare notes! lol!

I'm not sure that leila is getting better. there is no fever but she is really not herself. have booked into see the doctor tomorrow.

this ones raging outta control better post it!
