vic, so glad you are settling into motherhood, it's awesome isn't it! Hope you are enjoying these last couple of weeks at home. Are you going back full-time? Or easing back into it?

Andie, I am weaning off the swaddling in preparation for the warmer weather, and for moving her into her cot. We've had a few hot days here already and it feels so wrong to be wrapping her.. but she won't sleep any other way! We've switched from flannel bunny rugs to muslin wraps too. Emily is still feeding every 2-3 hours during the day, and once overnight. She has 7 bottles a day, usually only naps for 1 sleep cycle between them. Sometimes only 10 minute naps if the boys are home and being noisy! Great news on the all clear with the hip scan

Cinder, do you just use plain coconut oil for your face wash? Might have to give it a try! Does it leave an oily residue?

Haven't done our 4 month needles yet as Emily has been sick (again!). Poor love Started with DS1 complaining of a headache, and he ended up off school for a week. The day he went back to school, I got a call at 10am to pick up DS2. So he's just had a few days off as well. Emily has been coughing and sneezing quite a bit. No teeth here yet, but constantly has her hands in her mouth, and dribbling to no end. Had to buy more bibs to keep up with her lol.

Don't know if I've mentioned it before or not, but I'm a foster carer for a local animal rescue. I've just taken in a gorgeous Mumma kitty and her 4 newborn kittens! They are sooo cute, Mumma cat is only a kitten herself (I guess around 6-9mths old), she is such an awesome Mum. It's amazing just sitting and watching them nurse and interact. Almost makes me clucky!!
