    Hi Tilda I'm with Suzi I think it must be wonder week again. Harry is all over the place too and waking in the middle of the night thinking it's play time I was thinking last night at 3.30am I must get the WW book out to check what's up. Here's hoping they settle soon. I wouldn't worry too much about how much she's eating either if she fusses about wanting to play with stuff I'd say meal time over and get her out of the chair and take her to play with her toys. Babies/toddlers won't starve them selves they are pretty good at taking what they need, and she'll work it out pretty quickly that high chair or table whichever is food time not playtime.

    Suzi Again hope all goes well today, or went. Hopefully you're pain free as of now! I'm off to check the WW book to see what they're up to now...

    Tilda - I used to give Craig a spoon of his own to hold, or a rusk or some vegemite toast. We also have a little steering wheel toy with a big suction cup on the bottom that attaches to the tray and keeps them interested in being in the high chair while I shovel the food in. Mostly Ryan's eating finger foods now and that's keeping him entertained. But it is hard work

    Willow - Aw thanks. I must sound like such a whinger. Surprisingly I actually hurt more than I did prior to the surgery, but I know it will be better in a day or two. Just want to know what the heck it was and where it came from now. How's Harry? Is he still doing playtime at 3:30am? Both our boys slept through last night, but I didn't sleep well so I hope tonight is better in our house and yours.

    Hi Suzi I don't think you're a whinger at all! It sounds bloody horrible! I saw on fb you had a good nights sleep and feel a little better so that's good.
    Playtime wasn't at 3.30am, last night he was exhausted and went to bed at 7.15pm only to wake at about 8 and proceed to whinge and want to read books and play until around midnight then finally went to sleep. He slept until 1.45am wanted a feed then went straight back to sleep for another 2 hours another quick boob and was out again, only thing was then I couldn't sleep my throat was so sore, and chest and my sinuses were killing me to the point my whole jaw was aching, I was thinking of you at that point. (now who's the whinger )
    Harry doesn't seem quite right though I hope he's not getting this cold, although I thought he'd already had it his brother stated it then he got it then DP now me so hope he doesn't get it again. But he's asking for a lot of extra feeds through the day which is unusual so we'll see what happens.

    Well Harry's in next door with the IL's for another getting used to it day (well couple of hours) before the big "W" next week so not looking forward to it. It doesn't help I'm feeling so crap with this cold either here's hoping I can get rid of it before Monday.

    I think I feel the need for a lie down.
