Hi ladies, been reading but been struggling to find time to post. Had a quick visit to Sydney which was great though my sister was once again a PITA! She's not congratulated me or given me any indication that she's excited about having a new niece but then had a big cry cause she thinks that I want her to have nothing to do with Arya as she only got a very quick cuddle before I got her to feed her. Honestly, after my last trip where she hit me, why would I want her having anything to do with my baby?! Then she had a big cry to Mum because she received a formal warning at work and blamed Arya for waking her during in the night. Aside from that though, it was so nice seeing my parents with her and my 4yr old niece is completely besotted. Wouldn't let anyone else cuddle her and everyday she came running in the house and the first words out of her mouth were 'Can I hold Arya?'. It was too cute.
As far as tummy time, we do it with Arya on our chest, rather than on the floor/change table. That way she still feels safe and secure cause we're cuddling her, but she is also getting plenty of time to try and lift her head and push up with her arms.
