    She slept for NINE hours last night!! We have been terrible parents :o and put her in her cot in her own room.

    Well we are also 'terrible' parents then:cool:.....Ds1 spent 10 nights in our room, ds2 4 nights and ds3 2 nights. Ds1 and ds2 also hated their moses baskets and kept bashing arms and legs, which resulted in them waking up...... I didn't bother buying one for ds3:p

    Also :mad: at the stupid doctor!!!

    I thought about putting Tobes in his own room, as he was a very noisy sleeper. I went the other way and had him in with me - more for my benefit than his. I'm so nervous, I'd be in and out of his room checking his breathing!

    I feel a bit redunant tonight, LO is only feeding every 2.5 hours. I don't know what to do with myself! He is currently asleep on his playmat. Aww!

    how was your last day EVER at your job Glam, did you cry ??

    no :o I pretended to get a bit upset but tbh I was relieved to get out of there. Got told that if I wanted to go back afterwards a job was always open for me which was good but so glad I'm not going back there afterwards!

    Can u believe my boss spent the collection for me on loads of expensive stuff that I won't use?!! :mad:

    A £20 jacket for bubs from M&S :eek:
    £15 hooded towels (which she knew I already had)
    £20 on a shower gel, talc (who uses talc) and soap for me in a toiletry bag
    over £10 on 2 gift bags to put the stuff in :eek:

    Only good thing was a bottle of pink champagne!

    I am going to return the jacket to M&S cos he won't get the wear out of it to justify £20 and will probably return the towels to Mothercare! I know it sounds bad and like I'm ungrateful but I could use the money far more wisely.

    Where does the time go? :think:

    Aaaw cutie, I love babies/kiddies that just drop of asleep where they lay/kneel/stand etc.....
    I once found Jaden asleep on the stairs, half kneeling, half sitting with his body bent over the top step....sooo cute, although I obviously moved him straight away in case he fell down them:cool: Another time I found him curled up asleep in a smallish cardboard box (which was still in his room from us moving house) he is funny! Kai often nods off in his door bouncer...but still sort of bounces in his sleep:rotfl:

    Feely, I bought the sensor pad monitor, and used to lay awake half the night watching the little pendulum swinging:o At least it was a bit of reassurance:)

    Glam... you can send me your talc... I use Alexandra's at the moment but uhmm.... it comes in blooming handy between and under the boobies... because they get bigger when full of milk they also get sweaty and horrid and I have had heatrash or something like that a few times between them and it's really uncomfy - so now I put baby powder between and under them in the morning and at night ;) problem solved :D

    Hooded towels... I have about 6 - and I use all of them :) Take them back if you don't like them but if you only have one... I'd keep them ;)

  • Mel - I am a proper bad mummy - I only go in to check that his dummy isn't near his head where it will wake him if he move too much!!

    Other than that I leave him to it!!

    Although I did hear him at 4.30am when I had gone to bed drunk at midnight last Saturday - I must have some kind of mummy linkie going on :D

    PMSL!!!

    Hubby took the moaning crying baby up about 30 mins ago to try and settle her whilst I expressed some milk - just went up to see how they were doing and the bedroom lights were out... and a distinct snoring was going on!
    I tucked little person back in her covers and left daddy snoring on my side of the bed :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
