hi Em - and welcome to one of the chattiest baby buddies around! lol. please don't blame yourself for Jades size - i've seen pics and she looks healthy. she is just dainty. if you're worried though (and it seems you are) get her checked and see what they have to say. she is a happy little girl, and i would think if there was anything major wrong, she wouldn't be such a happy poppet!

with the sleep thing - as i mentioned on FB, E was sleeping through before but now there is no hope in hell she'll sleep through. she feeds at least twice between midnight and 6am, some nights it's hourly. i honestly can't find a singular cause - it's just the way she is!

Bridg - good luck with the VA visit - hope you can get some help for Logan. that reminds me, really shoudl look at what they have on their site for DH's probs.

sorry for no other persies - tired day today. been out with mum. had a few stresses the last couple of days as someone i know IRL nearly lost his wife and DS to a uterine rupture. it's been playing on my mind lots. went to see his Mum today to check up on them - bub has been flown to melb, and both parents are now in hospital (her with the issues from the c/s - her heart stopped twice during the surgery) and him with crippling back pain. bub is doing ok, but having probs with his lungs (was 5 or 6 weeks early). it's really gotten to me though as DH and I have been talking about going back and i know i have a tendancy to weird scarring.

work starts next Tuesday - still not sure how i feel. it's like its not real yet. i think Monday will see me an absolute mess! oh well, thems the breaks!

E is going to specialist for her eyes on May 5 - less than a month to go!
