hi all
I'm going to reply via topic again as we've had a few common themes this week.

Nappies/liners - I've had Evelyn in cloth occasionally but her thighs are still a bit small for the small BBH magicalls. For both girls I use eenies flushable liners and the cheapest I've found them is the roll of 500 from the ebay shop Bumpy Buns. I started using these with Annabelle because she would get eczema and these keep her pretty dry. I love that they're flushable so you don't have to deal with the solids too much!

Routine - I'm trying to implement a bit of a routine, but it's not easy with E only sleeping for half an hour then often not resettling. I'm hoping she'll start sleeping longer soon because she doesn't want to feed any more often than 3-3.5hrly during the day and I'm trying to stick with feed/play/sleep. Basically we bath/shower both girls at 7pm then A is in bed by 7:30 and I normally start feeding E while reading A stories, then she goes to bed, then I finish feeding and settle. She's normally asleep by 8:30. Lately we've been having a 3:30-4:30am feed then up by about 7:30/8am for another feed and to start the day. Feed about 11am, 2/2:30, 5:30/6 then bedtime one. Whatever I can get out of her sleep-wise between the feeds is great but I often put her in the sling about 3:30/4pm for that last sleep in the hope that it will be a big one. She can't seem to stay awake much more than 1-1.5hrs without either falling asleep wherever she is or getting cranky. I can't wait to move E to a sleeping bag at night time but her arms are still way out of control.

Rash - E's is quite bad at the moment on her face, head and neck. I thought it was baby acne as some of the ones in her hair were a bit pussy but it's gotten really dry and I'm wondering now if it's dermatitis or eczema. I'll ask the doc when we go for needles next week if it's still there/bad. I don't want to moisturise it if it is baby acne because that will make it worse but if it's eczema (with both DH and DD1 get) then you need to moisturise regularly.

better go, E hit her half hour sleep cycle. I will resettle until she gets the message!
