    grrrr, for the first time today since having Jessica I was hoping to do some washing, put a load in a turned the machine on and it has now broken, full of wet clothes and the door is locked. all of Jessica's bibs are in there including two of the three outfits she actually fits into (everything else swamps her) so am panicking she is going to run out of clothes soon. We had to get the tumble dryer bit fixed a few weeks ago (Christmas time) and now looks like the washer function has gone up the spout. Maybe its an omen that I should let other people continue to do the washing for me? Lol.

    OH had night duty last night, was bliss not having to get up, although I did have to nudge him everytime to get up for a feed I could fall asleep again straight away.

    Have also defuzzed my legs today, they were looking a bit manly, is it strange that epilating doesn't hurt quite so much now? Maybe I now have a higher pain threshold. Thinking I may paint my nails while the princess is sleeping, have had naked toe nails for weeks and can now reach them again. OH is at the gym at the mo, so having a girly afternoon to myself.

    Am hoping to be able to keep track of what is happening with everyone, but got a feeling it will take a while as there is so much to read and remember and my brain just can't contain everything it should just yet! I don't normally just run on about me, honest!!

    Hi there! After some thoughts and advice. My little one is now 12 weeks old and we aren;t in any kind of routine yet apart from feeding every 4hrs (bottle) and I know that he has a 45min nap after being awake for about 90mins - this pattern tends to repeat through the day until 8pm when he goes to sleep for the night. I've been reading various books - Gina Ford and Baby Whisperer and these seem to suggest it isn't 'normal' to have this kind of sleeping pattern!!! Can anyone shed any light on wether they are talking cobblers or am I missing something with my little man??? Just wondering.
    Thanks
    Lisa

    Oh, and you have to drain the machine for it to unlock, is there a drain button or you'll have to pull it out, take the hose off and empty it into a bucket!
