Morning Jillie! You're very happy this morning! btw, I got TC payment yesterday after calling same day as you did. Have you had yours today?

Morning,

Hope your back improves Csh. Mine is killing me at the moment. Mainly due to Holly waking at 1am most nights and me ending up sleeping in the spare room with her - the mattress is rubbish. Might need to buy a new one. It's making it difficult to pick H up though.

I went to a chiropractor a few years ago. It was for my shoulder rather than my back, although it's amazing how everything is connected. My shoulder was much improved after a few sessions, however I had also started exercising and changed my job which was aggravating it so I was never sure if it was the chiropractor or not.

Is yours Aussie? They are all Aussie in Glasgow I think!

Aw sorry people didn't get great sleeps.

Jack's been having bottles at 7.30pm, 12.30am and 4am last few nights but at least he goes straight back to sleep afterwards. He doesn't have any other bottles but I don't know how to change it so he has them at 7am, afternoon and bedtime! So far I have tried

- Goodnight Milk then.....
- Changed to Hungry Baby Milk for all 3 bottles (still can't go more than 4hrs!)
- Giving him Weetabix around 6.30pm
- Putting a rusk in his bottle
- Offering water
- Not feeding him

Nothing works and I've been at it for a good 2 weeks!! It's like having a newborn again, except that he's such a wriggle bum that I woke up at 5am and he was lying lengthways across the top of the spare bed with his bum in my face NICE!! Every night I say I'll put him in his cot after the bottle bu because he rolls over and drops straight off I don't want to disturb him.

I think people should take the UK test if they want to drive over here, we have a different Highway Code that people should learn like I have!

Sugar - hope you're OK

You need to pretend it's winter - that's what Alice did when she woke up:
Daddy don't go to work today. It's snowing actually. It's Winter. It's Winter! [gets excited] You can't do gardening because it's Winter!

I was wondering about Buttons too.

I saw Buttons posting on another thread the other day and meant to PM her but I forgot!
