    Oh and when Poppy started rolling i tried turning her back onto her front but she just kept turning so as long as she can get back i wouldn't worry. Poppy sleeps on her front most the time now. If you are worried think you can get bumper type thingsyou can put either side to stop her rolling?

    Does Poppy move her head to the side like an adult would so she's facing one way or another, or does she lie like my crazy daughter who looks like she was dropped from a great height with her arms and legs everywhere and her face buried in the mattress?

    Thanks Wendz, I'll see about trying one of those. I'm just such a worrier about her.

    She tends to move her head to the side although i have seen her face down.

    All parents worry and you have been through more than most. x

    Phone is busy this morning, just had a call from our local surestart to tell me about their services. Made me laugh though as they had recorded both my name and Grace's name as my full first and middle name. I was thinking 'who names their child EXACTLY the same name as them, first and middle?'.... until I realised that actually I knew someone at the nicu who did that save for one letter.

    Oh lovely hotel in the Lakes, Dinah. I have bookmarked that one for later :) Glad to her the lists are all going well, very productive! I hope NIM is able to get loads of mystery shopping and you get loads of ebay goodness for the Amex bill.

    Things okay here, just slaving over my introduction draft. It's supposed to be finished and polished by the end of the week, but I'm just finishing the first draft. But on the other hand I've never actually managed to write anything proper before, despite 5 attempts - so all progress is good progress. If I have to go a little over the end of September deadline, Uni will just *have* to give me an extension!

    I'm doing lots of housework bits and pieces too, because it's just so nice to do tasks that have an ending! And so satisfying to tick things off my list each day. So I have been clearing out the freezer for a big meat order we did from a farm. It's a little bit dearer than supermarket prices but I hope it will taste a lot nicer too. I had so many chicken bits in there I was saving for stock :o I'm on day 2 of a 4 day stock-making marathon! Still, it's so easy to do in the slow cooker. I haven't got any further with the closet because those DIY tasks tend to take a bit longer. So my Fab Feb challenge might go a bit into March. Oops!

    This is the £169 a night deal just in case anyone else likes the look of it.

    Good luck with the draft Lara, I was terrible with mine on my masters, I faffed for weeks getting it structured on some chapters, and on others I just sat down and wrote a surprisingly coherent 5000 in a night. I think you're amazing to do so much study, I wussed out and went to be a desk monkey as it seemed less effort!

    Maybe March's challenge should be some kind of home improvement drive? :) There's loads I could/should do but haven't got round to yet! :o

    I'm impressed by all the studying and writing too. I wussed out of even going to uni because I've never been able to meet deadlines and I've got an embarassingly short attention span for stuff that I'm not reallllly interested in (and there's not much call for a degree in Harry Potter or the history of the Barbie Doll! :rotfl: )
