    HI ladies
    Convinced MS is going to kill me...Anika is being the best bubba...but she giggles when I chuck...better than crying i guess. My mind is totally gone and I can't remember anything...went to the loo, walked back in the lounge and freaked because Anika wasn'te where I left her...not...I had put her in her activity toy thingy...talk about preg brain...scared the absolute c out of me!!! So...what I was getting to...was I can't remember if I told you that I had my scan on Monday and bub is doing great...in the right spot with a strong heartbeat...phew! Now the reality of two under 15 months is starting to sink in...ahhhhhhh!!!!!!

    Big hugs to all the sick mumma's and bubba's...wishing you all good health and great sleep

    Ali - I hope everything goes ok with DP tomorrow! I can't believe the godfather - his loss I say! I hope Ash is on the mend, poor little poppet. Send her big hugs from us.

    Ellie - You poor thing with MS and preggo brain! I can't tell you that it improves after the second baby I can't remember anything - I'm hopeless!

    OP - I'm up for a meet up too!

    Det - good to see you are hanging in there!

    Holly - I also held the same little bubba today (sorry I couldn't stay until you got there but Miss J cracked it and had to go home to bed) and Miss J just seems soooo big!

    Meg - I got your letter and have passed it on to the recipient. J sounds like he is being very sweet, do you think he has turned a corner?

    AFU - Miss J has been nicknamed the 'giggle monster' by DP's family as all she does is laugh! She pretty much eats everything in sight (even if it isn't actually food!) and yesterday she went from sitting up to being on her tunny and pushing herself along the floor backwards.... hmmm... maybe she won't be staying put for as long as I had hoped.

    Hi girls,

    Ellie with the morning sickness.

    Ali - re the TV and the lappy - they should be able to get the info off the hard drive.


    to everyone

    AFU - Alex is officially crawling now - its pretty cute because he lifts his arms and legs up to move. he's also up on his knees. His teeth keep moving up and down but no sign of them coming through.
    DH is away overnight tomorrow night. I hid inside today with the heater on - I'm so over winter!! Trying to get Alex to sleep on his own in his bed, getting him dozy on the boob then into the cot for sleeping - got him in for 1hr twice today (first time every), so will have to keep it up.
    Finding things really difficult, to the point where I'm doubting there will ever be a number 2.

    I am having heaps of computer problems tonight, o sorry for the sp errors as it is going really slow, and sorry if I miss anyone.

    Ali - Obviously the person didn't really want to be the Godparent so much, as if he did, he would make sure that he was there. I hope everyone improves soon.

    Holly- that is great that he will take the dummy. it will give you a bit more of a break.

    AJP - You are brave to go back for three!

    OP - I am glad that you are getting better sleeps. Lets hope it continues.

    Nai - Yes J has somewhat improved, but he is still really not that good. Just better than he was. Great that you got the letter. Glad that you could pass it on for me. Thanks. I hope the reecipient is doing well.

    Ellie - Argh MS sucks hey? Just glad A is chilled out so at least you don't have to be managing an unsettled baby at the say time.

    E was so funny tonight. I was alternating a mouthful of veggies, with a mouthful of fruit. She howled every time I gave her the veggies, and then would cheer up for the fruit. I might tape it tomorrow night.

    On a good note, she has fed herself roast chicken 2 days in a row. I sit J with her, and they eat together. She is always looking at what he is doing and seems to want to copy. I can see that she would love to be able to run around with him.

    My sister with the 7 week old bub is not doing so well. Miss M has a severe Ecoli infecting as well as Staff. They think that she picked it up in hospital. So far she hasn't had to have her readmitted, but she has to see an ENT tomorrow as she has discharge coming from her ear. My sister is shattered as her CSect scar is still not healed and she is still on AB's and can't lift things or drive. Been going over as much as I can, but she lives an hour and a half away, and kids in tow can make it more of a hinderance rather than a help.

    Hi girls, I've been a slack buddy Sorry.

    to all the sick mummies and babies in here. Some of you are having a really rough time right now I hope things improve soon.

    J still up and down with sleeping. He is waking/feeding 4 hourly overnight atm. Day sleeps are crap and then he gets really tired. Lsat evening was rough. Been very whingy lately and cries so easily. He's woken now after only 40mins so we're in for another rough day. I don't care if he doesn't sleep much in the day but when he gets so tired for not sleeping it gets very frustrating.

    How does everyone resettle overnight? I am having no luck. Last night I tried to resettle on and off for 3 hours! I ended up relenting and feeding her. She was sleeping through, but of late is waking again?

    I pick her up, give her a cuddle till she calms down then put her back down. If I try just patting she gets hysterical.

    meg - not the best one here.. I stick Alex on the boob and he goes to sleep - have just started putting him down before he goes completely to sleep, so he associates the bed with sleeping - but I'm still wrapping him

    Meg - I'm still feeding when Miss J wakes too so I'm no help either! Now that they are in the same room I can't have her screaming and waking Genevieve so I just feed her and put her back down.

    Thanks girls. Thats what DP said abou tthe Godfather thing as well. As if he really wanted to be it then he would have found a way to get off work! Anywya am just glad we got someone else who actually does really want to be the Godfather.

    Ash is slosly getting better and is sleeping better as well.

    Megie- We dont wrap at all but she does have a dummy. For the last 3weeks she has slept through all but 3 nights. IF she has woken though I normally bring her in with me and feed her and she falls asleep. I jsut dont have the energy to fight it and it makes her happy so I jsut kind of live with it and it is working so I shouldnt complain.

    Kaz- Is J teething??? Maybe that is why he wants the comfort of feeding and is waking often?

    Jols- great work on last night with no feeding!!! You must feel good today.

    Arrrhh Ash is crying now. BBL
