    Muso - At such a young age, I never really paid any attention to my Holly's naps. In fact, I wouldn't have really classed them as naps. She just slept on and off during the day as and when she was tired. Maybe at around 3 or 4 months I saw more of a pattern.

    Is she tired when you are putting her down at 7pm? I personally would just take my lead from the baby and do whatever suits her. I think Holly would just fall asleep in the moses basket downstairs and we would carry it up when we were going to bed, but other people are more strict on routine. I personally don't favour strict routines for young babies as they change so quickly. That's just my opinion though. Make sure you keep it darker at night, low lights, soft voices.

    OMG I have a shy bladder and need to go. I can only do this when the hallway is empty. When I come and go the hallway is ALWAYS empty so people think I'm here even less often than normal. But now when I need to walk confidently into the bathroom it's HEAVING.

    Well done Tickle - I did that with Amelie when she was little, I found it hard at first and had to distract myself but the results were definitely worth it!

    Fitz: I am too embarrassed to let my colleagues know I use the bathroom, and they are all milling about in front of where I need to go to do so. But I really really have to.

    Edit: I have overcome! I managed to loiter at the pigeonholes for a clear moment and have managed to sneak in and out undetected :j
