Have been reading & not posting

Storm, good luck with the move this weekend it will be so good to be moved & settled in for Christmas.

Heather what a big sleep! you must have both needed it! It's good to get it all out sometimes I dont think it mattes too much if you're in the mothers room... you know most of them have 'been there' too

Naomi what a bummer about your DH's work hopefully something else even better will come up....

MissE good luck with the spaced soothing, hope that starts working soon - and with a minimum of fuss

Hi Liviam & welcome good to have you with us!

Jetta that's awesome that Sam is self-settling so well! We haven't got our tree up yet, I have to work out where to put it first! hopefully this weekend.

AFM I have a cold or tonsillitis or something & she doesn't get it, sore throats are horrible for babies when they can't tell you what's wrong but so far so good ...
Arlea is great, she had her 4 mth needles on Friday & was fine, no huge weight gain but I have given up watching her gains, she LOOKS very healthy & normal to me & is obviously thriving. She has started getting up on all fours sometimes on her hands & knees & other times on her hands & toes like she's doing a pushup! and getting to where she wants to go. So we might have to baby-proof everything a bit earlier than we thought.. she is mobile now & it won't be long before she is into everything!

I'm going to go & read everyone's birth stories... I have been thinking about doing mine but wondered if I had left it too late...maybe I'll have another go

hope everyone & their babies are well
