AF - Can I ask you, have you always had problems with LO sleeping or is it a more recent thing?

I have been really relaxed about routines etc with H and haven't bothered too much as she has slept through from early on and it has suited me fine. She usually goes from about 10pm - 8am give or take, but doesn't nap much during the day. However, she used to go to sleep within about 10 mins of me putting her down in her cot at night whenever it suited me, even if she was wide awake. Now she doesn't fall asleep quite so easily and I just wonder if it's going to get worse. It's not a problem for me at the moment, but I do want to work on making it an earlier bedtime for when I go back to work and we need more of a routine.

Eeek! Exciting, what you starting with? Mind the photies!

Baby rice tomorrow!! Nothing too exciting he he. Got plenty of purees at the ready though.

Do you fancy meeting for lunch one day in a couple of weeks time maybe? See if Kieren can make H cry and get his own back?

Where is Baby Yoga on? I don't know anyone who has been.

Tia - No idea about hampers. It's my dad's 70th on Wednesday and I haven't even got him a card yet! I have no clue what to get him.

Hi Fitzo,

From when she was born to around 3 months she was doing the regular wakings you would expect, but she never carried on from there and she stayed being a frequent waker.

Not sure if it is because i never got into any particular routine, i.e. bath/bottle/bed etc from an early age and she always went to sleep in someone's arms.

however, i now do the bath/bottle/bed routine and she may do a good 3 to 4 hours, but after that it is nearly every 2 hours. she does still have a feed during that as well.

I try to console myself with the fact that all babies are different and even if i had another one and if i started putting them down awake from when we got home from the hospital, that they might not be any different to how LO is now.

Alll i have learnt is (and from MFD telling me on numerous occasions ) do what is best for you and your family.
