Holly- You are such a fantastic mum to L and don't worry about what other ppl say, every one is always comparing babies so much it drives me insane, we all know that are soooooo different. Glad the specialist seems to listen....sounds like you are geeting good advice.. I hope it is in the not so distant future that you finally see an improvement must be a worry sometimes. LOL about the one side boobie, 150 mls is great effort!!! Do you use a hand pump???

Meg -sounds like you have had great nights!!! Must be fantastic, i understand about the 4 hours, we get so use to just catnapping our bodies dojn't now what hits it if we get any more than that...a, we have good days but I really need to work on the night, a bit of it is me though I get a bit lazy during the night and co sleep sometimes...

Nai- I hope DD2 gets better soon, nothing worse when they are not sleeping properly, good luck with trying to track down a vaporsier.

AJP- Hope the girls are good, Thanks for the photo's they are great...

ALI- Hope everything goes ok in Canberra..thinking of you

Tarkine- Glad ur standing your ground in regards to job and DH....in these times don't think he can be too picky...chin up darl

OP- I gave up trying to get rid of dummy, it was in the too hard basket and now I think he actually likes it... only has it to get to sleep during the day and refuses it at night???

Hi to everyone else.

I need some advice on trying to get L to stop snack feeding... he is only having one side a t a time and refuses to drink anymore...I want to try and stretch out to 3 hourly feeds which he seems to do but just one side at a time...He seems content inbetween feeds but still wakes overnight.. I think the snack feeding 24/7 is the reason...I offfered him a EBM bottle last night and he refused.. he has taken a bottle a couple of times but last night just was not interested.. I was hoping it would top him up so he would sleep longer no such luck.....not sure what to do...he is not a light weight so he is getting enough...
anyway still having sleep overs in our room. DD comes in about 1am every night and sleeps on her little matteress and L is still in our room. so we all camp out in our room, think I might steal DD's bed and leace DH to deal with the kids, might get some sleep then!!!
