Kaz- we still have the short naps, I try to resetlle, without much luck usually. She prolly has 3-4 naps. Anywhere from 30 up to 60 on rare occasion 1.5, DD1 didn't start having longish sleeps til she was about 1!
In our house its a fight for the kids as Df is a bomber supporter, we've agreed one child each but seeing as most our friends are saints fans I just might win.

Ali- Good luck, it will be hard first few nights but just tell yourself its worth it in long run, tell yourself your nit getting much sleep anyway whats a little less. Once she learns to resettle without the breast you should see improvement, you prolly need to give it 3 nights before you can see if its working or not. And yes come in and tell us how its all going.

Heaven- omg she is well advanced with all that physical stuff! I put Em in jolly jumper last week and she just hung there didn't even try bounce herself.

I know its great watching DD1 and 2 interacting, like yours Nai, Ash is always making Em laugh by just looking at her. Its so great to watch them together. Ash has become all protective of Em when other kids get too close, very cute.

For those that know about baby led solids can someone explain to me why doing that you can give your bubs whole foods but your other starting solids involves pureeing everything, if they can eat or suck on steamed vegies why am I pureeing everything?
