Hi all, completely EXHAUSTED since the hot weather does not agree with miss E at all - she was up I don't even know how much last night, less than 2 hrs between get-ups...I have a temperature strip in our room now and it was still 28 degrees in there at 4 am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm pretty sure it was about 12 or 15 degrees outside, and I had the window open all night - the penny finally dropped that it's not because the cool air isn't coming in, it's because our room has a long wall facing north east and the heat just keeps pumping out of the wall into our room all night long. Seriously investigating a port aircon now - it's one thing to be hot yourself, it's another thing when it keeps the baby up all night long!

Good luck all the WW ladies, I had DDay today and you could've knocked me over when she said I lost half a kg, I was sure I would've gained on account of all the cr@p I've been eating. I've been so hungry it's like being preggy again. She's told me to eat twice as much brekky, so it's back to first and second brekkies at my house LOL. I came home and had second brekky straight away and felt better already.

Ok, pressie ideas for the girls - a funky beach towel/sunglasses/sunhats with lipbalm and a nice after-sun moisturiser? Bindeez hahaha only kidding. How about a small portable MP3 player? A lot of girls enjoy scrapbooking so an album and some bits might be appreciated too.

Renee, nope DH isn't working nightshift, I AM!! LOL He used to work weird hours when he was a chef tho, it disrupts your day as well as your night so I'm glad those days are behind us.

Hayley, check with your MCHN but I'm pretty sure the hard poo is a possible constipation sign. I understand FF babies need water in hot weather so maybe adjust give a bit more than usual and see what happens.

Sherie, I've got everything crossed that the gastro stops at Lindsay. hope he's feeling better really soon.

Noni, for your meltdown yesterday, I agree with Jazmum about Ash feeling safe and secure to sleep in her rocker. You are doing a great job!

OK, have completely forgotten everything else I was going to reply to, not enough brain function today! hugs everyone. xxx
