I was just about to request a Fly over for the south east but I see I'm already in the flight plan Grin and Thanks chunky

VQ I'll give you all the credit in the world if you and your cape can make it right down south. If you can't see the Channel you've not gone far enough!

Note to self. Do not do a fucking long meaningful inspiring helpful post at the end of a fucking thread!

My cape expeditions cover Europe but no further.

Summary of post was

SIDS is a real fear but if fear is unmanageable see GP. Fear growing with subsequent kids is understandable as it is easy to think your luck will run out. Do your best to be as safe as you can and try to channel any thoughts into enjoying every precious moment.

I reminded of the loss of a precious child of the group 10 years ago to SIDS ((hug to mummy))

I have an Angelcare which is fab and helps me sleep better, but think if you bought one now, it would not be used for long as rolling can give false alarms. I had a Tommee Tippee which was shite. They may be better now.

I also said that mine activated when DD2 was tiny and she was not breathing. She may well have started breathing again anyway, but I was most thankful I had the monitor. I have heard though that even if instant care is given, if it is SIDS then revival is impossible thus many saying the movement monitors give false reassurance.

Do not let this fear spoil precious moments with your babies x

Morning all. Sleepy dust managed to hit us to some extent (stretches of 5 and 3 hours) but I suspect lots of poo-related wriggling. Everyone keep their heads down...

Need to wander back to the old Fred to see the news.

J decided that 5:45 was a good time to start the day. Not on a Saturday please J. I was hoping for a bit of a lie in (7:30?) because I was up late watching a rubbish film with DH. It's called Warrior King and it's about a Thai elephant keeper who has to travel to Sydney to rescue his kidnapped elephants from a transsexual mob leader who runs a restaurant which serves exotic animal dishes. Absolutely bizarre film. I wish I had gone to bed early watched something decent.

DS2 was up twice last night. He had been sleeping through reliably before J arrived but now he's up all the time - drink of water, nightmares, lost teddy, just one more poem please daddy. I wish I knew what was wrong with him. I think it's more than just jealousy of the baby.

Poor ds2 stunt it does seem like more than any jealousy. Worth checking all ok at school? As well as where is he in his development I a learning fast that contrary to popular belief boys are just as complex, if not more so than girls. They too have clear hormonal changes at different points. I have been reading the .Steve Biddulph, Bringing up Boys that talks about these.

Good night here. DH is downstairs with the boys and I am lounging in bed.

I am going to try dying my hair myself forthe first time ever today.
