thanks girlies! might keep him on the 1 teat, i am terrified of him liking the bottle more than me, and my flow is quite quick - once it gets going he could just hold his mouth there and swallow, with no sucking kind of quick, so the more he has to work for it the better XD He seems to go fine on the 1 ones, so seeing as he has a bottle... never, i might just stick with that for now.

Have any of you's left your bubba's yet? I'm crapping myself. I get a knot in my throat whenever I think about it. I feel a mixture of guilt for leaving him with my Parents when he's my responsibility, because I"m terrified he might just be beside himself (although so long as he's full he's usually very content) and drive them batty XD Although they're so excited to look after him. Then I feel excited because it would be nice for DH and I to have a night out where we can both sit back, together. And then I feel guilty again for being excited about leaving him on his own, and then I just feel horrible like I'm abandoning him *deep breath* I'm going to miss him like hell. Jeez, and it's only for a few hours! I think I'm just a bit of a basket case!

Minny, i have tried him out on the tomeetippee teats and the avent ones. They avent ones he seems to take to alot better, although he does fluff around with it for a little while, but he has only ever had a bottle twice While the tomeetippee ones are meant to be like a boob, the "nipple" part just seems to be too long and straw like, but the avent ones, although they are smaller the "nipple" part is a bit more "meaty" iykwim XP

Zarava, sucks to hear about your DP... unfortunately they all have their moments tho, don't they! Hope things start to settle down again soon
And overnight feeds? What are they? XD Thankfully after a really horrible week or so of waking up every 4 hours, Jackson has gone back to sleeping thru. Although he seems to have found himself a new routine again. He goes to bed around 8-8.30 and then wakes up around 5-6. If only he'd be a bit nicer to me, and wake up at least with the sun! I mean, what is an extra hour XD But, I know I'm super lucky.

PO5, I hope Milly's reflux settles down soon. FWIW, when I saw you in the shops the other day it didn't even cross my mind that she looked like she was on the small side. She looks perfectly healthy to me! She's just a petite little princess! <3

Eluned, Jackson gets his 4 months needles on the 10th. And the dog gets his year vac tomorrow! All these needles... at least the dog doesn't cry. Jackson gets weighed on the 5th too, so that will be interesting...

Hey, when is everyone planning on starting solids? Shortly, or will you be waiting closer to 6 months? I'm thinking we might give them a go at 4 months, as Jackson seems really fascinated whenever he see's us put something in our mouths XD But I'll see when the CHN has to say first, I guess...

Well I better mosey, i have been listening to Jackson straining the last 10 minutes and have a feeling that I've got a giant poop waiting for me XD

Mwah! xx
