Hi All

sorry its been so long, just so busy! lots going on at the moment, flat out at work had my graduation from uni plus my 30th birthday, mum has been here, I've been away etc so just haven't had time to post. Plus i've been struggling with some PND which has been dragging me down but I think I am finally shaking it now and seem to be having mostly good days

Stevie, sounds like you've had a bit of a rough time - did I read that AF has also returned? (cant remember if that was you or not!) anyway could just be your hormones adjusting. Mine are a bit all over the place too and I've had some shoking days!! Your story about the body spray reminded me so much of me last week - we had virtually no food in the house but we'd had no time to go shopping and I had to work, was flat out at work, but ducked out at lunch to buy some groceries and I was very proud of myself (trying to juggle shopping, eating, expressing etc!) anyway I got home from work and realised I'd left all my groceries at work I was so cranky!!

Also stevie yay for Miss A moving around everywhere!!

In fact yay for all of our babies for growing up so big and strong - what wonderful mummies we are

LJ hope things have settled down for you.

Tammie - i feel for you. Someone has stolen my perfect baby too :sad: Sounds like everyone has given you some wonderful advice so I hope things settle down for you

Rach & Rach hope you are both doing well

DM - I'm here! working 3 days a week. Anymore words from Lucy?

AFM Leila has been a horror!! Poor little thing is teething and she's really struggling. The bottom 2 teeth came through without too much drama but the top ones are giving her a lot of trouble. for the past 2 weeks she's been waking up to 6 times a night screaming and I've been at my witts end with her. This is a baby who for the past 3 months has slept 9-10 hours a night, every night without making a peep. It is heartbreaking to see her so distressed. The last few nights have been better, she has still been waking but only once or twice and is not screaming as much. Feeding has been a nightmare too becasue she has been biting. She did settle down with the biting but then started up again something shoking today so I'm hoping this means that the top teeth are almost through as that's what happened with the bottom ones BUT, aside from all the challenges she is absolutely adorable! She's been sitting up for a few weeks now and has finally figured out how to crawl forwards which is just wonderful to watch. Oh and we have kisses here too which magically make everything better

Time to bath and try and settle my little sweetheart.... praying for a good night!

Hugs to all
