Chuckie - that's awesome! Well done. And well done for sticking it out. I am so glad that you're able to get some sleep. I didn't know that Pearl had a twin... hugs. Thanks for the tips too on how you did controlled crying. It's reassuring to know it's worked for you and was worth it.

Fuzzy - oh dear, I can't remember what I was going to say.

Belfie - thankyou for what you wrote.... it was just perfect. I am trying not to beat myself up too much for the mistakes, and I just try to "reset" and start again. OMG that picture of Annika is too cute. Hope the dizzy man gets better and the new meds don't make him sick.

Vix - so you liked the amber necklace?

Bec - hope the passport comes through.. how many sleeps til you go? I often wonder that myself, "what I am getting so worked up about?'. I have decided that next time I feel like that I am just going to excuse myself, by saying, back soon, go into another room and hum. I am seriously, if she is grizzling or crying, it's not hurting me, its just noise. Perhaps I am just a closet control freak. Oh I wouldn't worry about Isaac missing his earlier feed. He'll just make it up during the other feeds if he needs it.

AFM - Hannah had her weight etc checked today. 9.03kg, 72cm long and a big boofer head. Remember how she had stranger awareness/anxeity? Well it used to be adults but the last two days it's been other kids. She was playing with babies her own age Wednesday and Thursday and after a while she basically looked at them and cried. Poor wee girl. Apart from that, she is just a delight. It's so nice for us both to be well again. H usually wakes once a night, and I feed her. I had been thinking about night weaning, but I am not prepared to listen to her cry just now. She usually only has one sleep a day ranging from 30 mins to 2 hours ( but the 2 hours is swimming days).

I am really enjoying being Hannah's mum. It's hard work, and I am busy but people ask me what I have been doing and I can't remember. I don't even come on BB that much anymore.

Take care.
