Haven't started reading to William yet although i have quite a few books already....also having my own learning ladder party in august to get a few more....mum's in s.e qld you are welcome to come along if you like...those on facebook i sent you an invite Majella if you want the details let me know

So still more improvement on William and his tummy He is now successfully sleeping at least 3hours during the day (one sleep cycle at a time for naps but it's better than nothing!) which is great, still got good night sleeps too - including going to bed ALOT earlier.
Borrowed an ergobaby sling from my doula - Love it! Bidding for one on ebay. It puts william to sleep wheni am out so I don't have one overtired/overstimulated and screaming baby when i go out during the day and out for dinner and try to put him to sleep. means i don't have to be home within a time frame anymore! yay. It has this cover thing on it also that means he can't see out so if we are at the shops and he gets grumpy from being overstimulated i can cover him and he goes to sleep. REally easy to put on as well. Only fault i can find atm is that the cover comes right up to my neck and feels a little funny, but as he gets bigger i suppose that won't happen cuz it won't need ot be so short.
Also found some ergocoocoon wraps on ebay, has anyone used them? i did start a thread about it, but they look like a pretty awesome wrap....they have a double zip so you can just undo from the bottom for nappy changes at night and to put baby incar seat without unwrapping. They also have flaps for the arms so that you can put one out at a time once baby gets older? Good subsitute for a sleeping bag and maranui they would solve the problem of how to get bub used to it?!! Only thing i'm not sure about is cuz William likes to be swaddled so his hands are up near his face, you can't really do that here i dont think...but they are only like $30 so i'm tempted to just get one and try......
Hope you are all well
