big happy birthdays to our 'big' 'grown up' babies- Olivia, Logan and Hannah. congrats to you all for your first year, and thanks girls for sharing the journey with us
md- that half a week sounds like the straw that broke the camel's back to me. you poor thing. dp and i used to have a long distance relationship, so i know the heartache of being away from your loved one for long periods. it's a killer...thankfully he moved down to melbourne and has been whinging about how cold he is ever since
clare- i thought you guys were moving to the gong? have i gotten confused somewhere? i'm blaming pg brain. yes i know what you mean about melb house prices. lately we had been talking about moving- but once we started actually looking we decided to stay right where we are thank you very much. instead we're just going to make some improvements on our house.
arte- aahhh sleeping. well, um i actually took a lot of your advice, in that he is always put to bed between 7-8pm, and once he is in there, he doesn't come out. even if i have to go in there and shove a boob in his mouth 3 times before midnight, i don't care. i think i was putting him to bed too early before -6.30ish, so now sometimes he doesn't go till 8pm. he always wears his sleeping bag, has a lullaby cd playing and hugs morris the blue sea turtle (dp named him). we leave a bar heater going in there so he's nice and warm. he still wakes but he does much longer stints now, 4-7 hours instead of 1-2. it's much better
i've just called up a doula but she was in a meeting so she said she'll call me back this arvo. already i like the sound of her better than the last one i called, who never called me back btw!!! so hopefully this one suits my needs and we can come to an arrangement.
