    Thought I would start a thread as a few of us have reached or about to reach this milestone and it would be nice to see where things are going. So here goes for me - will keep it short and sweet.

    DOM

    Sleep

    Waking once a night sometimes otherwise goes through

    Feeding

    Still boobie on demand, but less now as he has three weaned meals a day.

    Development

    Totally alert, has been for a while. Nearly sitting on his own. Flipped from back to front a few times but still hates it if on front for long. Always laughing. Smiles and laughs at the cats.

    ME

    Sleep

    I tend to go to bed about 11pm and sleep well after Dom wakes for a feed thank god. Could still do with a lie in.

    Feeding :p

    Try to do it with Dom but it's hard, so as and when and I am lucky my OH cooks in the evening alot.

    Development

    My motherly skills are maturing quite nicely although I do get the odd time when I think what have I done or what do I do now.


    How is everyone else doing? :D

    ME

    Sleep

    Usually go to bed between 11-12, OH hates lie in's and is always up early so if he is working a late (starts at 3) or a day off, then he gets up with jamie and i have a lovely lie in!!

    Feeding

    we either have our tea then feed Jamie or the other way around depending what time it is, when his bottle is due etc etc!.

    REECE

    Sleep

    Sleeps from 9 till 7 most nights

    Feeding

    3 meals a day + snacks and follow-on milk

    Development

    Really alert. Can sit up by himself now and he just started rolling over. He can play his xylophone (not in tune!) Giggles all the time. Has just started grabbing the dog when he walks past. Has learnt the G sound and he says it all day long!!!

    ME

    Sleep

    I get in from work at 10 and Reece is already in bed. I go to bed about 12-1am after I've wound down then get up with Reece about 7ish.

    Feeding

    I still eat as normal (except all my meals are cold by the time I get to eat them!). Could do with cutting down.

    Development

    I still cant believe i'm a mam!!! Feel so lucky everyday. I feel like I'm doing a good job so far.[/b]
