Hannah, you should try the medicine...Eva has changed so much since I started it - it took about a week to really settled her but it is so great now, I don't know how I did not start using it sooner. Good luck you poor thing - I know how hard it is to see baby crying and not eating well...

Rose, good that you take pics! We can all live vicariously through your photos - wish I could be there!

Beany, that video is amazing! I remember that it was one of the reflexes they tested on eva as a newborn at the hospital but they siad it usually disappears around one month, so Michael is probably going to walk fast!!!

Alison, good idea to get those muffins out of the house - I have also banned all sweets from my house!

Quick update - Eva has been doing great - she had three or four night where she stayed up crying until about 930/10pm but then slept well (she actually sleeps through the night finally, but she wakes up crying a bit around 2 or 3 and by the time I get to her she is back asleep, so I have to train myself not to jump out of bed!) She slept from around 9:30 to about 530 those first few nights with two wakings in the middle of the night but she fell back asleep...Last night though!!! DH and I decided that she is complaining because we put her to bed too early, like Hannah, so we decided to change bedtime to 930 to see what happens...so she had her bath at 6 and then went down for an hour nap then when she woke up instead of trying to put her back to bed, we played with her had her at the table with us during dinner etc, then I fed her at 9 and we put her down around 930, well guess what? She slept through until 630!!!!!!!! She had one little cry at 320am or so but again was sleeping once I got to her room so it was just a dream or a dummy cry...I could not believe it! And this medicine is working wonders! She is giggly and happy all day and sleeps better and eats huge meals and lets out huge burps, so everything here is going really great I am really feeling happier at the moment because I can see her enjoying her daily routine so much more! She also LOVES the big bathtub and kicks around and loves the running water etc...

She has also been super clingy with me but I like it - she was not super cuddly before and now she seems to always want to nuzzle in my lap - might just be a phase but I'll take it! I feel like she is going to be a very independent little toddler, more interested in looking around and seeing things than clinging to her parents so I am enjoying her gripping my neck and nuzzling her face in my arms when she wants cuddles

I have been getting out for hour walks almost daily and if not the half hour at least Every day (except sunday since there was a bad storm and I was scared of branches falling on her head!)...and I am at the trainer three times a week now..still no loss but I feel better so I'll just keep at it until this fat disappears! I was fat in high school so am really scared to stay heavy since I work very hard to stay thin...That's why I was so upset when I could not exercise anymore after my fifth month!

Anyway, baby crying for attention!

I'm off!
