sorry to read of Hopings loss 
Hearttree that's great that Delilah is doing so well! Long days but you know with every feeding she gets stronger! Good that you are a milk machine!
I'm sure you know about mastitis but it's in my head today because I got it for the second time! (first was when Adam was 3weeks and now it got me again this week) - so I thought I'd put the caution up: if you feel fevered or your boobs feel more sore in one spot go get checked out!
this is a bit late but Nato I can't believe you are TTC again!
eta: oops didn't finish my thought there: That's great you are TTC but brave!! Having two little ones sounds too tough for me! good luck!

Hoping, do sorry to hear about your mum x
Vicky, fingers crossed for the apartment! Does Hero nap through the day? I can't believe how you can survive on so little sleep. I'm bad enough with Charlottes very early wakenings, but the broken sleep sounds like a killer!
Hearty, sounds like you're coping really well and doing great with the feeding. Post some more pics when you get the chance
AFM I'm going to try Charlotte in her own room tonight as she's 24 weeks today. I'm hoping her sleep will improve, but ill be a nervous wreck tonight no doubt. The angelcare is all set up

Good luck Sugar hope it goes well Im sure charlotte will cope really well with it probably better than you. We put Benjamin in his own room at 8 months and I was a mess but think it did help him sleep a bit better as we didnt disturb him and it was nice to have our room back but I did miss having him there and being able to check on him. I still have nights that if I wake up I will go check on him even now 
Vicky any news on the house?

Sugar Hero has 1 nap during the day, about 1.30 hours usually. If she doesnt nap her sleep is even worse as she gets very agitated and wakes every couple hours. This weekend she was almost perfect. Slept through both nights but still very early wakening at 6am.
So Alex met the owner of the apartment on Friday before we went to the beach house. He put in an offer and the guy didnt say exactly yes but he didnt reject it either. He said he would call us Monday but he called us a few hours ago! He asked us to pop over Tuesday to tell him what colors we want the rooms painted!!!! So I guess he has accepted our offer even though he didnt mention it on the phone. Tuesday i will make sure he understands our offer before i give notice. Imagine, im so used to being turned down that im thinking he didnt hear or understand our offer lol!!! Fingers crossed next week ill start planning Hero's nursery!!!

Awesome news Vicky!!! I want pics!
Good luck Sugar. I can't even imagine how hard it will be to move her.
Delilah is moving in the right direction. I'm pumping now and need to stop shortly, but I'll update with details later. The next pics I post will be ones without her feeding tube. That should come out in the next day or two.

Vicky, that's fab news! Also well done to Hero on her sleeping through! 
Hearty, can't wait to see pics. Great news about feeding tube coming out
Lucy, it went ok for the first night I think thanks. I was very anxious and woke up every time the monitor made any noise and kept checking on her, but hopefully I'll get better. She still woke up at 5am though but I held out till 5.20am before feeding her, the monkey!
How you doing sweetie?

Vicky, that's great news! I love your natural pessimsm at the good news haha. Yesterday I had such a good afternoon and evening I went to bed thinking something must go wrong lol. What's wrong with us?!?! I hope you get to plan Hero's nursery very, very soon.
Sugar, glad to hear it went okay! We are going to put Alistair in his room from the first night in our new place, which is July 17th. I'm so, so nervous!! He will be 8 months then, and I think he's ready. I will appreciate any tips you have as you both adjust.
Hearty, that's great news. I'm excited to see more photos of her ,but of course she's beautiful as she is.
I hope everyone had a good weekend.

It's funny you do the same thing...but also not funny if you know what I mean!
It's very quiet on here. I'm guessing the Canadians are doing Canada Day celebrations and the Americans are getting ready to do Independence Day celebrations. And I don't know why the British people are hiding lol?
Lucy, I meant to say I love the video of Ben climbing the stairs! Too cute!!
Well, I have a busy month ahead of me. I'm working a lot because we are saving up to go back to Scotland this winter. I'm very excited! Maybe around Alistair's first birthday or a bit later at Christmas, I'm not sure. Is it weird that I want to go before December 12th in case the world ends? So, I'm working and then going to a friend's lake house this weekend. We also have a family reunion this weekend but I don't want to spend time with relatives right now. Then next week it's off to Colorado and the week after that I'm off to Arizona. In the meantime we're moving house on July 17th. We're moving out of our apartment and into a duplex. I'm actually really regretting it now, though. I will miss this apt so, so much. I've cried thinking about it. It's where I was pregnant, where Alistair lived during his first 8 months...it's full of memories of taking him home from the hospital and so many of his 'firsts.' I don't want to leave!

I'm good thanks sugar bit tired but apart from that all is good. Benjamin has a bit of a cold so hasnt been sleeping well the last few nights praying he sleeps through tonight as dont think I can cope with another night were Im up with him for several hours or were he falls asleep in our bed as then I cant sleep and end up with no room Had my mum & dad down for the weekend which was lovely dad had to go back yesterday for work but mum stayed have had a great day with her she's going up to see my niece and (ex)sil tomorrow.
Thanks Allie hes such a cutie and so fast hes also masteed the art of coming down safely we've now got a stairgate up as the bannisters are open and I was a bit worried hed fall through especially as hes alittle dare devil.
Just wondering has anyone lo suffered from night terrors? I didnt think babies could but spoke to the hv about benjamin everynow and then he will do this thing were hes sounds really distressed crying, crawling round his cot, if you pick him up he'll thrash sometimes his eyes will open but most of the time they are completley shut its really scary eventually he will calm down more likely if Ive got him and he can put his head on my chest (I think hearing my heartbeat helps) the hv told me it was night terrors, he had two last week. They really upset me he seems fine apparatenly they dont remember after. The advice Ive had is dont wake him make sure hes safe and stay with him till it passes which can take up to 30 mins they said. She said not to pick him up but he had one fri night I sat next to his cot stroking his back he was crawling round banging into the cot and the cry he has its awful so distressing completely different to his other cries so I picked him up, took him to our room & curled up with him he did calm down. I was reading that sometimes a change in room therefore a change in temperature can take them into a different level of sleep and that calms them.
