Jennie13 - i love the idea of co-sleeping but DD wakes so much more if she's in with us i just can't do it.
She's been in with me the last 2 nights and although i love the cuddles she's driving me mad.

Teagz - hows Jackson going with the sleeping, still on his tummy?
Is he still biting, any sign of those teeth?

Eluned - thx hun, still slowly unpacking a few things, with Ava trying to help and Z feeding every 2-3hrs it's been FUN
How are you guys going?

AFM - i gave Z her 1st lot of solids this morning, just some rice cereal and she ate it like a pro, opened her mouth for the spoons and Ava 'helped' by giving her a couple. (pics on FB)
Before anyone says anything about the WHO i am aware of the age suggestions and i wanted to wait until 6mths but i couldn't hold of any longer Z is feeding every 2-3hrs all day every day, she WAS down to 1 feed a night but is now sometimes having 1-3.
During the day at times she is quite grizzly and unsettled and i eat majority of my meals with her on my knee trying to steal my food or my fork.
She is a very happy smiley baby but lately aside from teething she's just not herself, she is awake from 1.5-2hrs then down for a nap the longest i am getting from her atm is about an hr then she's up and feeding again.
She's bigger than Ava ever was and i honestly think she needs the solids, not that i think i have been starving her but i think it's def time.

Gee can you tell i am still trying to convince myself of my reasons .

We are pretty much settled in and are having MG here on tuesday but am still slowly unpacking the things we don't use every day - has everyone found a mothers group?
DP is away for the long w/end and Z has been feral over night and i am so so tired but have things to do as MIL is possibly coming tomorrow so today off to buy a gate for our stairs then back home to run around like a freak and clean clean clean.

Sorry for such a me post, hope everyone is well.. been quiet in here.. hope all the mums n bubs are well.
