OP - I'm a bit of a scatterbrain at the moment and can't for the life of me remember what MCN's you are using. I tried to go back through and find it, but I can't even seem to find the post where you asked whi8ch ones I use

I'm really likeing the MCN's. So far they contain the pees and poos much more then the disposables (B has peed enough in one go to leak through disposables twice ). I also find the disposablles leave his bum looking a bit waterlogged like it never quite dries out properly IYKWIM. Unfortunately I don't have quite enough MCN's yet to have him in the full time. Soon hopefully.

Emma - Little B was awakie for most of the day yesterday. He was just really unsettled for some reason. That having been said he wasn't crying as such, he was just grizzling and could't quite seem to get comfortable.

tearing without anesthetic can't say that's an experience I'd ever like to have!
So you had the needing to resist the urge to push for ages too? Not very pleasant at all was it?

Sal - Apart from yesterday where B hardly slept at all, he is usually asleep all day too. Basically only awake for feeds, and occasionally for half an hour here or there but generally he sleeps most of the time. As he's my first child I can't say if it's normal or not, but I'm not TOO concerned about it anymore. I've mentioned it to the MW at the clinic both times I'[ve had him there and they've no been concerned about it.

AFU - We see the pediatric surgeon today about B's penis. with any luck he won';t need an operation. Funnily enough I mentioned hypospaedeus to a friend the other day and her husband had it and got it surgeically corrected when he was a baby! I'd never even heard of it before the paed told us that B had it, no it seems like heaps of people had a son (and now a husband) who had it.
