all. Long time no 'speak'

DR T- It will all be ok...I feel your pain- its hard going back to work. Just take it hour by hour. Before you know it you will be back in the swing of things.

WRT the rusks- we were giving them to Lily for awhile but got alittle fed up with them because she would keep dropping them on the floor and they would get covered in stuff. We now use a cool rusk which is a tube like thing filled with water. You put it in the fridge and when you need it you give it to them and it helps numb the gums. If you go with the solid rusk option check out the ingredients. I have seen afew that contain salt- I really don't understand why salt should be in a babies diet.

And WOW- we have some crawlers in the house...awesome.!! Lily is not even close- shes a belly baby...LOL..Life must be getting tough for those of you baby proffing the house- we havn't even got there yet!!

Lily has got 3 teeth! She eats pumpkin, sweet potato, carrot (which make her majorly constipated), apple, pear, broccoli, and peas. We are starting her on fish this week. She still sleeps through from 730pm to about 8am. She now says DaDa and talks none stop saying babababa ogogogoo and so on....LOL. DH is doing an absolutely fantastic job being SAHD. I have not washed a dish or hung out washing or done ANY housework since I have been back at work. I don't even cook tea which is a real relief as I really hated cooking. I still maintain that I am the boss when I'm at home despite DH thinking he is incharge!

Oh- Congrats OP on buying a house! Exciting

Well- I'm going to put my feet up...hope you are all well and am thinking of you Dr T...
