    What sort of sensory issues??? Interesting! Hope it helps, Jols! Also hope today isn't another bad day for you...

    We had some friends round last night, including a couple with a 12wk old bubs, he was so unsettled, he's got reflux and some other issues, had been getting better but is pretty feral again at the moment - we had a big chat about expectations about "sleeping through" and all that junk... its scary how much pressure is on parents (and mums especially) to have these perfect babies!

    I told her that DD didn't really stop waking overnight until about 10mths and how even now she still calls out most nights at some point and still often needs an early morning (5-6am) resettle! I think she felt better at that!

    Can't use Alex (friend's baby), my uncle is Nicholas... I do like Rohan and Xavier! Might start a new list...

    OP - How about Jacob We also liked Joshua, Tobias, Zachary and Lucas.

    Nai - Hope those molars come down soon hun! I hear you on the constant on and off tantrums and whinging!!
    Olive - that book sounds really interesting - let us know what you learn!

    AFU - Evil night last night again Lots of wake ups. DP is being really good and putting lots of time into resettling but we're still spending long hours awake through the middle of the night. DS has bitten my left bbie too so now it's cracked near the base and it HURTS like blazes when he feeds. He brought tears to my eyes last night. It's taken me right back to the early months. He's really fussing and pulling on it lots too and the crack is getting bigger Don't know how to stop him doing it. He's so big and he just tantrums when I take him off and try to re-attach him. I bought some Lanisoh today, hopefully that helps.

    He's trying out LDC right now for the first time. Gotta go express and then I'll pick him up. It's so weird without him. Felt like I forgot something the whole time I was out and I'm still creeping around at home so as not to wake him up until I remember that he's not here

    we loved the name Max! if we had a boy that would have been the name!

    kaz i had issues a few weeks back with a sore around the base of the nipple, but on the areola, from teeth and man it HURT! i had to reallly watch my position-chin to breast, chest to chest and legs tucked around, doing that improved the attachment and the sore healed up.
    we had a badish one too, but up longer with DD1 than DD2
    i feel weird when DD1 is at kinder too, feels very lonely without her!

    nai we tantrum and whinge too

    bad morning DD is fighting day sleeps like you wouldnt believe she was up for 5 hours before i got her to sleep, loads of hysterical screaming in my arms,she was so tired, going to the Dr tomorrow as she has a runny nose and were worried about ear issues again, especially with the sudden sleep issues, she finally settled after nurofen

    Oh Kaz, you poor thing! Sounds very painful. Not really sure how to help apart from what olive has already suggested... just going back to basics and making sure it is all ok.

    Hope he is ok at LDC and has a fun day!

    Olive, hope DD2 is ok - not good with the sleep issues. Sounds like we are all doing it tough at the moment in one way or another! Good luck at the Dr tomorrow.

    I really like Max... Kaz we have a friend with a son Jacob unfortunately as I quite liked that one! Josh I have a thing about - all the Joshs I hvae known have been brats! Toby, again another friend has a son named Toby... Zachary loved until we found out that DH's cousin's illegitimate love child (I kid you not) is a Zachary... sigh, it is all too hard

    Lucas - I really like Lucas but my niece's name is Lucy, is that too similar? What do you guys think...

    Thanks for the help
