    bruno = others have given great advice re sleeping routine etc and MM sharing her experience, but i thought i'd comment on your OH having moved countries to be with you as i have done the same thing.

    Thanks AF, she has definitely been suffering from increased homesickness since becoming a mum, so I expect it IS a factor.

    And if I can do it, anyone can! :p I just copied the URL from the address bar at the top. The video works for me - will watch it with the sound on in a min! :D

    Realised what this was now, anyone with a FB account can view my link, but not if they have no FB access at all. That'll do! Thanks :)

    I got some real legitimate Baby Banz for only £8.25... he was only willing to wear them for a few weeks though, then he preferred to eat them after that :(

    He is old enough to be a smooth talker when he wants to be ;):D

    Did you ever tell me about swimming?
    We ended up going to the Gala baths... The brine is as warm as a bath and Bentley Bridge is always a bit chilly for my liking... I needed Caitlyn to be as comfortable as possible because you can't crowbar Aimee out of a swimming pool within an hour of arrival (unless she's just climbing out to jump back in again!)

    I did tell you where the argos bargain clearance shop was, dya see it?
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.
