    Well, it's just my mum now but yes, and two of us actually stayed with my mum for two weeks (my younger sister only lives the other side of town) so the babies got to share baths :D
    ooh what fun! I'm quite jealous that you'll all have a special bond having been pg all together and your children all being able to play together :)
    Not much chance for me unless sis is super fast getting her DP down the aise then her up the duff and I get my 3rd baby
    I don't envy your mum though, I bet she was super stressed with all her girls pg together!
    no just drawn out the pattern but its my own made one from pictures that are not cross stitch so had to convert them and then i went wrong 4 times and zoe kept bugging me so took forever x
    ahh I thought you were some kind of stithing deamon then! :rotfl:

    OMG csh 10 hours, im v envious!! No i coulnt sleep through or leave a hungry baby crying either, toby was just making noises and figeting lots so i waited and he went back to sleep on his own, yay!!

    At first as soon as he stirred i'd feed him and he was on 2 feeds a night but his sleep pattern does mean he has a wee fidget every 3-4 hrs or so. I just watch him til he settles, he never actually wakes up. He purses his lips and yawns and thats him

    It would be better if we didn't all live so far apart but it is nice. Mum was totally in her element, she loved having all the babies there and with everyone around there was always someone to look after the babies while we got on with other things. Going out was good too as it's nice not to be the only one who needs time to nappy change and feed. Communal feeding was also good - so nice to chat to someone while feeding! My older sisters girl was lovely, only 7 weeks older than Erin but so much bigger and loads more smiles, it's amazing the difference. Missing it all now.

    I really didn't think it was that unusual :confused:
    He goes down between 8-9pm and thats him til about 6ish.

    The last 2 days hes been up early about 4or 5 think its because his teeth were bothering him but he has a bottle and goes back to sleep

    Hes always feed 3 hourly during the day so gets plenty of milk
  • csh, bith my kids were the same. Jasmine was sleeping 10 hours at 7 or 8 weeks, and Dylan has been doing 11 hours since 9 weeks
    The two best things I have done with my life

    Evening all,

    welcome jha :)
    fattybooboo - my little one is still waking during the night for feeds, and she is almost 15 weeks old. She will go down to sleep for between 3-6 hours (not so often the 6!), then wake up usually about every 2-3 hours after that.

    Only just catching up: I forgot how long it takes when I don't get on the computer during the day!

    Buttonmoons - was thinking of you yesterday: was in aberdeen and met a family with a little girl called Keira when I was in a lift and they were asking about my Elena.

    Had a cute dream the other night, which involved Rhys and Kester! They were both gorgeous babies even in dreams :D
