Kaz- how scary! Hope he is okay now Keep us updated. I posted a surprise for you today. Hope you get some sleep tonight
Holly- Was thinking about you today. I have a gf who seems to be having the exact same probs with reflux with her baby boy who is about the same age as L. I had coffee with her today and she said she has been to so many doctors who just dont understand, they just keep prescribing medication (zantac 3 times a day) and it isnt working. She thinks there is something wrong with his airways as well as he seems to struggle with breathing and no one will check them!!! She was telling me she has booked into karitane??? (think thats what its called) but its a 2mth wait. I know L has some other probs as well but just wanted to give you more I wish I could give some advice (to both of you) but have no idea what to do. I hope the check up goes well tomorrow for you.
OP- how did your check up go??? with the sleep. Weare having similar issues. We are wrapping again now as well. I think I am feeding too much at night (actually i know I am) but I cant seem to get her out of this phase of wanting the boob from midnight until the morning.
Shell- I am glad you have made a decision with the feeding. You have to do what is right for both of you and I think you have made the right decision for you girls. I think that combo sounds good as well. How is the hair loss going? I spoke t my hairdresser yesterday as when she was combing myhair heaps and heasp was coming out and she said it was okay, it should settle down so I hope it will. I have a receeding spot on the top left and right corners of my heas with just baby hairs now! I seriously feel like I am going bald!!!!
Jols- Yay for getting a good night sleep. Hope that you get the same tinght. I PMSL at Sophie's reaction to your effort of sneaking in her room! THat is classic, I probably would have been in fits of laughter in her room after that.
Det- good work on getting tax done. Hope you get some more nights off now from paperwork.
Pinny- I actually HATE my body now. If I had money I would get some plastic surgery done. I always used to have a nice waist/tummy no matter how many kilos I put on (I never put it on here) and now its yuk and I dont know how to deal with that. DP grabbed at it last night in bed when he cuddled me and I almost cried. I really hope that I can get enough self-control and dedication to getting it off.
Nai- Hope weight watchers goes well. I think you look gorgeuos already
Raver- how you doing girl?? How is Bella and Logan.
Tarkine- I knew I had something to write to you but forgot so will have to come back after I re-reas to jog my memory
Heaven- Been loving all the threads you have started. Can so relate to so many of them. Hope you and DD are good.
Meg- Did you end up getting J to FDC? That is great it is so close to you.
Rainy- Hope that mastitis is going away.

AFM- as I said above, sleep is an issue. Last night DP had to get up to Ash and try and settle her as I didnt even hear her he thought I was pretending to be asleep because she was crying and he was even saying to me that she is crying but I didnt hear him I think I really am sleep deprived as she was in the room next door and DP was lying next to me and I didnt hear. I am just going to bring her in with me tonight when she waskes up for her first feed. My birthday tomorrow, it is funny now I dont look at my birthday so much as being about me, but was thinking about my mum and the fact that it will be the day that she gave birth to me all those years ago. Funny how your perspective changes once you become a mum. Well this post has taken me ages. so I better copy and paste before I send JIC.

hope we all get some sleep.

ETA- Ashlyn has a cough. Should I give her anything???
