aww lu what a little angel! how cute is that! i keep waking with abi standing at the side of me staring, most of the time she is still asleep but it scares the life out of me!

Lu - I like the little step idea, Chris has a little step from ikea which is meant for getting on the loo (yeah right! he has no interest in that at all!) so it's mainly used by him to climb into our bed or to get into the bath - he doesn't like it if we justy put him in now he's too grown up for that
or does she have a ready bed? Chris has an inflatable one for Grandma's caravan if you had one of those you could put in in her room so you know she's comfy and safe.

Chris is still happy about the soon to be baby, he even insisted on helping to rub my bump with bio-oil yesterday :A

Keely, please don't feel bad. The circumstances just weren't right and you actually suffered. I had great support at the hospital, but still didn't want him near my boobs, and I don't feel guilty, it just wasn't for me.

Lu - how lovely Imogen is! Bless! And of course it's funny to have your hubby attend strip joints! Especially as they weren't expecting it (I thought they were a bit scantily clad for this time of year, he said :rotfl:). The girls went round with pint glasses and if the men put £1 in they would get another... erm show. Hubby came home with a huge handful of coins! And yes he told me was staying out.

Ooh, yes the smears were available once you started to have sex. I can't believe they've changed it.

Joseph was crying for a drink (low discomfort tolerance these days), so I left him in his room, closed the baby gate and went downstairs to fetch drink and food. I was just buttering some toast when he walked in the kitchen :eek::eek:. The gate was still closed when we went back up though. I'm glad I've made him walk up and down the stairs since he could crawl, practice makes perfect.

All this talk of BFing, I'm glad Izzy came out knowing what to do! I was still sore for the first few weeks and struggleed with her being so very hungry in the evenings/night time. I don't know if I produce less milk then, or if she is just mega hungry, but some nights she wants to eat continuously from about half six until whenever she passes out... these days she is normally asleep by 8:30 at the latest, but when she was tiny sometimes she would carry on till midnight!

Re hubby going to pub with naked ladies, my DH imports !!!!!! dvds from wholesalers in the US to sell to his mates. Not on a large scale (and he hasn't bought any for a while now the exchange rate makes it less profitable), but still it means I end up finding out the preferences of his mates. There are some things you just don't want to know . It doesn't bother me, so long as he doesn't leave them lying around! When I was pregnant my mum came to help me with the housework one day and we found one under the sofa :eek: . Luckily it was one with a girl in her undies on the front, not one with her mouh full (to put it delicately!), so she just found it funny that he had hidden it so badly. I hate to think what she would have said otherwise :rotfl: :rotfl: .

Ladybird, cluster feeding in the evening is a really common thing with breastfed babies... They do calm down eventually... But it's like everything baby related... Feels like its forever at the time, when you look back it was only 5 mins in the grand scheme of things...

Phew - I thought it was just me. Violet wants feeding (feels like) constantly from about 4.30 til 10ish at night! Perfect timing, when DS and DD are just home from school and want feeding, and OH is still at work. :mad:

Krystal - you're a :staradmin ! You keep coming up with these snippets of info that always make me feel better.

think a lot of babies are like that - mine is anyway, I think my little man gets bored with me after a while and any new face is a welcome change - something new and interesting to look at. Glad he's sleeping better for you!
