Oh Pregpan, that is sooo sad. I hold my little Miss E close every day and thank the good fortune that brought her to me healthy!

Happy EDD Rainy. (*shouts, encouragingly*) IT IS TIME TO COME OUT NOW LIL BUBBA, YOUR MUMMA IS READY AND THE WORLD IS WAITING!! Hehe I have a feeling that's going to work !

Arte - WootWoo! Sexy NZ Mumma - your avvie looks just like you! YAY W for the big sleep !

*sigh* Well I went to visit the other FDC lady this morning - she has a son at DD1's school (and so could have her too on those afternoons) BUT she has a swimming pool. I just can't go there after my colleagues lil girl drowned at FDC all those years ago. Back to the drawing board.

But...on the good side, there's a job coming for me, I can feel it (INCOMING!). LOL

Ok, Clare, I think I'm going to have to get a cheap Melb ticket and fly over and get your tonsies out myself. I reckon I could do it with my long stitch-unpicker, a pair of fine-tipped pliers, a piece of string and a bottle of vodka. How about it hun? Seriously - are you getting thyself to a naturopath/TCM practitioner?

Woah Ange you are one hot babe! (*sizzle*) LOL Glad you've got your home gals coming up to help. Please let us know if there's anything at all you need, I would *love* to pop a parcel in the mail for you. xxx

BTW - re the crazy midnight carrying on - we've had a couple of midnight "sessions" with Missy E. I actually think it's something developmental. They are learning how to want particular ppl during the daytime (ie I got rejected in favor of Daddy yesterday ) so it kind of makes sense that they might wake up and not want to be alone to go to sleep, kwim? Plus I think about how busy their little brains are, they must have HUMUNGO dreams.

ETA - if she's getting her serves of dairy, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Miss E has a half-full sippy cup once or twice a day and eats plenty of dairy so I think that's fine. Otherwise if you're still really keen, maybe offer it at a different time of day, ie morning tea or before or after her daytime sleep??
