Hello All!
Long time no chat yet again. Gemini - I am sorry to hear about the diagnosis of aspergers. Was it something you were expecting?

Jubear - I hear you hun. I don't think it is entirely "normal" but my lil guy sounds the same. Lots of cuddling and rocking to get him to sleep sometimes at night. Although he will sleep for a few hours, three at the most but wake up at least 3 times a night for a feed still. I know he is not too hungry cos he doesn't feed for long, but just wants the reassurance. I have started to just rock him instead of feeding and last night it took 2 hours from 9-11 before I gave up and fed him . It is hard work and I totally understand the exhaustion!

Everyone else - hi! Your baby's sound so grown up already.

AFM - River is crawling, sitting, and pulling himself up onto things. He has had a couple of bruises already - the first of many I fear . He only has the bottom two teeth but I think the top two are moving and on their way. DH is away at the moment so the household is a bit unsettled. DS1 started kindy too which has thrown us all into a bit of a spin. Hoping things settle down when DH is back and DS settled into school.

I am pretty sleep deprived (6 hours average each night with several feeds in between ) and I reversed into a parked car yesterday . I was quite shaken up, although I didn't do any damage to the other car or mine. It was just an awful experience and I was so embarrassed. Unfortunately the lady whose car it was is a kindy mum too so I can't avoid her. I am worried I will now always be "that lady who reversed into me". She wasn't in the car or anything, but I just wish it hadn't happened. Oh well... I guess the sleep deprivation is having an impact.

Ok, gotta go, River is crying (as usual) and I better go do the mummy-thing.
