Modo, you are a fab Mummy! 
Bobby won't have a perfect sleep every night, its just not normal, do you always sleep the same every night, i doubt it! Roh is a good sleeper, but we still have nights where he's up half the night chatting, or won't sleep until 12am, or gets up at 4.30am. Its the way things are. If the general trend is towards settling well and sleeping through more often than not, then you are heading the right way. It take s a while for things to settle into a proper routine, and even then things go weird every so often. Try not to loose perspective and think that how Bobby goes to sleep is the most important thing about your parenting, it really isn't.
Big hugs!

It was bliss! Then we went to the local playpark, which is a bit rubbish, but its somewhere to take Roh. He had a lovely time (video on FB) and collected loads of leaves 
) I made teriyaki beef with udon and a veggie stirfry for dinner with an edemame and pea salad. Roh absolutely loved it, and stuffed himself. He ate for 45 minutes solid! 
He's been in bed about 1hour 20mins, and still going 
I wish I could cook well though, I'm crap 
I've left Oliver about 7 - 10 times all together. Steve and I have been out for dinner maybe 4 times. The last time was absolutely months ago. I've left him twice with my MIL while I've been working on a wedding, and about four times with my parents again while I've been sorting a wedding. I think the longest time was about 4 hours. Oliver took him to B&Q the other day and I stayed home and hoovered 
I know i will have to be away from her, but i absolutely dont want to be. x
I don't count leaving him with OH as leaving him though, as he loves his Daddy so much, and to be honest, when we are both with him and he's upset, its 50/50 who he'll go to for comfort, so i know its fine. I was nervous about that to start with, trust me! OH and i have been out together a total of 5 times for a few hours since Roh was born, and each time i've left him with my Mum, who he adores. 
I'm nervous to leave Roh over night, but i'd rather he was here with my Mum staying over than with a stranger babysitting him in a hotel room! We did that on holiday, but it was different as we were still in the hotel. Bleh, anyway, not sure what my point is except i totally understand and think there is nothing wrong with wanting to stay with your baby!!!
