Holly- I still use the tummy tub to bath in, its like a bucket type thing but made specially for babies. I bath every night as its part of our bedtime routine but thinking to cut it donw cause she has really dry skin and have had probs with Ash and eczema in the past. I use QV bath oil tho. Sounds fine wht you're doing, I used to do that with Ash.

Pinny- Don't know what the story is but hope you sort out the family prob. Try not to let them bother you too much.

Nai- Usually takes a few nights but by 3rd night you should see an improvement, well thats what they say! We stopped the dummy to sleep accosiation and Emily adjusted quite well after about 2 days was a huge improvement.

NZGirl- Good to hear from you. What type of business do you have going?

Det- those mums and bubs classes sound good, I'd take Emily but then I'd have no one to watch Ash. Pain is good sometimes cause then you know you're doing somehting good there.


I got sad news today, a guy from work passed away last night, quite a shock cause last I saw him was 6 months ago and he was fine, apparantly he got sick recently and was found to have a melanoma which had then led to cancer in his liver so must've been there for awhile before being diagnosed. he was in hospital cause of pain and they were working on that and then planning to send him home once that was sorted so obviously I didn't think he was terminal and then next second he has died. He been at my workplace for like 20years or something.
