Right I am going to get a post done if it kills me!!! DH and I keep going to bed at 9:30 so really reduces my BB time so I am going to post first browse if anytime left. We have never been night owls and are actually enjoying being up early around six ish because go to bed so early - when was hot last week was just gorgeous at 6:00AM - CJ doesn't normally wake till 7ish so is quite nice having time before she wakes up.
BG - Great going on E's day sleeps. CJ has never really been one for sleeping in my arms - just wants to play if she can see me - but her day sleeps have just started getting longer than 40 mins - not gone 2.5 hours yet but often 1.5 now. I think Amy you said around six months they tend to start sleeping longer as are more active? I seem to be the opposite of most people in that I hate it when she sleeps ages as means I have the opportunity to do boring stuff like housework etc this afternoon she had been sleeping ages and I was wishing her awake so I didn't have to finish the washing up!!!
Naomi - Can't believe how you and BG are so organised for Christmas. Tree here will prob go up week before. Mind you it is difficult for me being used to a winter christmas to feel like Christmas is coming because all the cues are different. Is funny I wonder how many years will take me to undo those cues and get used to a summer christmas, and for CJ she won't really ever know a winter christmas (as I wouldn't choose to go to UK at Christmas) - although her grandparents may brain wash her into demanding a christmas trip home. Have got fingers crossed for you and Bailey for Thursday
AFU - CJ is now out of the brace full time. Had scan last Thursday and actually showed no change in the angles from the last one, but issue with angles is very mild and as the brace hadn't improved them no point keeping it on. They reckon is just an immaturity thing and will sort itself. We have an X-Ray in 6 weeks (apparently ultrasounds become less good the older and bigger the baby gets) there is a chance that will show something the ultrasound didn't and she might have to go back in the brace - but hopefully not.
Anyway now am on a mission to get her to roll as has not done either way yet. She shows no signs of doing front to back, but back to front she seems to be getting close (maybe because I am being a mean mum and putting a toy just out of reach!) she gets right over onto her side and is in the right position when I watch other babies roll so I have told her that her mission is to achieve it by next MCHN visit which is next Tue.
