    I think babies just like waking up at 4/5am :p
    Ed has the same sleep pattern!
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    Anyway, wine and box of chocolates (found randomly in the cupboard, can't remember why I bought them now!) to hand now so I'm set for the night :D

    Hmmmmmm :think::think::think::think::think::think: :whistle:
    It's no good, I just can't think why Elle would buy a box of chocolates! :confused:

    Sounds like a very sensible idea with the steadily increasing feeds and gaps, Elle. Good luck.

    I nearly bought those pans too! I need at least 2 new pans. 5 seems a bit many so I held back.

    Caz, you are being a wonderwoman! I hope you are feeling proud of your non-stop action and dynamicism! You deserve those pans! :D And the easiest move you can have, fingers crossed for you.

    'Night all!

    Just to add before I sleep, I just showed OH the picture of that scary swaddled baby, her main response was to say how broody it made her! :p

    We were given a custom swaddling blanket, worked well for the first 6 weeks, and I must say baby does look pretty mummified when done right!
  • I'd like to see too Weezl :)

    AF, you probably don't want to hear from me lol... I tried controlled crying a little with Aimee on the health visitors advice... It didn't work... She cried until she was sick... I decided after that that there was a reason she was awake and she just wanted the extra reassurance that I was there... (I stopped feeding her in the night at 9 months when she was still waking every 90mins-2hours) Sometimes she needed a cuddle in the night, sometimes she didn't want picking up, but a bum pat would be enough... I just went through it all with her and eventually, she didn't need me to go in...

    I also think some children need the sleep more than others... Caitlyn sleeps an awful lot more than Aimee ever did... Although she's gone back to waking twice in the night...

    I don't feel very well :( Started with a little tickle at the back of my nose and now I have a rotten head ache, sore throat etc... :(

    (Incidentally, anyone else here have their tonsils out but feel like they still get half a tonsilitis? My soft palate feels like it used to when I got tonsilitis and it really hurts!)

    of course i want to hear from you krystal :D

    i really appreciate you explaining your circumstances. i think LO sounds very much like what you describe. i dont think seh is waking to be fed, i think she wants to know i am still there.

    i think i can see a white tip on her bottom gum so i am hoping it is going ot break through soon. might be one less battle at the minute.

    i am all for trying to put in something scented of mine but i never know what. :confused:

    Also,

    :rotfl: it's even baby related! I hope it's not the video someone linked earlier today, which I didn't view, and if it is then sorry but it's worth linking again :)

    now really going! Night all!
