    Ooh aren't babies clever marta, sticking to that cycle ;) I also have "week by week" on my kindle and have loved having it to read on the early long night feeds. I remember reading bits of week 17 and thinking how far away that seemed....now not so much *boo hoo*

    I don't think the formula necessary helps her sleep longer - but I know she is getting the full 7oz, if I knew she was getting 7oz of breast milk before bed, I think that would do the same job, I think she usually snoozes off a bit too quickly when I feed her myself and doesn't get enough which is why she wakes sooner.

    As for MAM bottles - I took Gilly's recommendation and yep they are great! :T I got the starter set from Tesco for £14 and think it is well worth it http://www.tesco.com/direct/mam-anti-colic-starter-set-green/210-2231.prd they are £30 most places

    Anyone got bad snow? It is horrendous here and we never get snow so if it's bad here, logic tells me it must be bad everywhere else?!

    Gilly - enjoy your hol :)

    Morning

    Noah was up every hour throughout the night! I'm sure he thinks he's a newborn again. :o

    I'm going to take the goblins to school, quick clean and tidy then sit in bed with my book whilst Noah has a nap.

    Gilly - how exciting. :D you had better start packing!

    OMG. Just found Freddie drinking from the cat's water bowl. Gross! :rotfl:

    Something tells me I need to get off MSE and start supervising him a bit better :D:o

    I tried! But my phone was upstairs and by the time I'd got it (leaving him in yet more peril :D) he'd stopped :(

    He's napping now hence I'm online with impunity. Bad mummy!

    I really want to get one too!! I heard, however, that it's best to use it once she can sit down and support her back and head. Please let me know if it can be done before that, because I'm looking forward to it! :)

    Ha I love that you left him drinking cat water to get your camera :rotfl: cat biscuits are apparently a favourite breakfast of my friend's baby if she's not quick enough in the morning.

    Morocha big hugs, it does get easier - I know it's a cliche but it really does. I honestly wouldn't go back to the early days, new borns are cute but jeez they take a ton of work and you get so little in return. Just wait til he's giggling and interacting properly, then, in the words of Aladdin, it'll be a whole new world.

    fluff....Reuben pulled himself to standing up with my full washing bin the other day, and fell over taking it with him, it landed on top of him and clothes spilled out on him too - when I'd finished laughing, I then took a picture.....Then I helped him out from under it ;)
