It's not the stringy bits you use JM, it's the pale fleshy bits...

I think a couple of people on here make their own stock boiling stuff up... Or there is a baby stock you can get... I used to buy baby gravy for Aimee but not convinced how much flavour it had...

I bought low salt Bisto! It will do!

Hubby calls sperm baby gravy _pale_ he practically wet himself when I told him that you had been telling me about the baby gravy you used for Aimee :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I would work with the 2 or 3 things you have identified and make that the start of your routine. You may find that things start to drop in around them.

So:

6am morning bottle and back to nap or cuddles with mummy or whatever until
8am change nappy, get up have breakfast (a good start to getting her a good 3 meals a day in)

Go through the day as normal...seeing if there is a pattern...

3.30pm - nap, for however long...now make sure you do roughly the same...

Play
Dinner
Bath (if you do)
Nightclothes
Cuddles
Thinking about bed...

Our 'nighttime routine' which is in no means a routine really starts from Benjamins 3.30pm/4pm nap...this is when we start to do preparing for daddy coming home type things, and eat and get changed (we don't bathe him at night generally) and kick around on the floor with mum and dad before thinking about bed about 7.30pm ish.

hehehe.... i would have put MFD in that post but i noticedyou weren't online but weezle was (well her light was on at the time)

i think what you are saying is right about trying to start including it in some sort of routine, but not a rigid one as such.

i really dont mind what time she goes down to sleep, just that she does when she's tired (for her own) and that she gets some kind of good sleep .

even so, if she woudl just wind down in some way.

finished chatting to the folks (i have such lovely parents) still trying to work out suitable arrangements for a holiday

These have very little salt in or Swiss Marigold do a reduced salt version (purple tub).

Boots baby stock cubes going by the ingedients are pretty much identical to Kallo organic ones (but kallo are about 1/2 the price )
Tesco, asda and asins all stock kallo ones

Glamazon

jack has gone straight down so for once I'm going to bed at a reasonable time!

FRITHA - I have two friends who might come to next sling meet as they loved my Joey today! Let me know when you arrange it xx

you can reduce it right down, freeze in ice cubes and use like a dry cube (I saw anthony worral thompson do it once)
