Re: My pre-TTC and TTC blog - updated page 8!!!!!!!!!!!
Daisy has dropped her feeds since I got pg, beforehand she still fed looooads, however instead she likes to nipple twiddle which is so sore!!
She still sleeps in our bed every night which I'm worried about. Shane thinks by the time baby comes daisy will be sleeping soundly every night in her own bed but I'm not convinced. I am worried about how it'll all turn out to be honest, but at the moment I'm really bad with morning sickness and am so exhausted I just don't have the energy to do anything but carry on as we have been. I'm hoping later in pregnancy i'll get some strength back to try other things...
I'm taking the breastfeeding day by day and have made no decision to tandem feed or not, but ideally I would like to have Daisy in her own bed.

Bethany is a nightmare at the minute - as you no she stopped feeding beginning of december. But she is constantly waking up and asking for water, wont sleep in her own room and so is in bed with us, and is kicking me constantly in the night. I need to try and get her more settled. Its gonna be a nightmare if shes waking so much when new baby is here and waking the baby, and vice versa cos i will be even more of a zombie than i am now

Re: My pre-TTC and TTC blog - updated page 8!!!!!!!!!!!
tandem feeding isnt an issue to me, but i need Corey to be sleeping through. He was slept awful this last week, using me like a dummy, but in hindsight now, it could be to do with my milk starting to change.
He is still in with me too, he has a cot bed which i put him in asleep, but he comes in with me about 2 am.
I think my main concern, going on past pregnancies, is if i end up in hospital later on - i would rather get him off night feeds now than him have to go cold turkey if i get admitted - Dave will have enough to deal with!!

God i no, cant believe i'm due in 2 month! I really need to get this madam sleeping through, ideally in her own room cos i just get a bit worried about co-sleeping with a baby and a toddler because she has tantrums sometimes and throws things and kicks. Plus i worry we'll all fit because its a squeeze as it is with me, bethany and hubby lol

Re: My pre-TTC and TTC blog - updated page 8!!!!!!!!!!!
we'll have to compare notes on it!
Im thinking of shifting Dave into the boys room for a couple of weeks so im not worrying about corey disturbing him too, and then just do my best to get Corey into a better routine. There is a baby event coming up at Asda, and they often have loads of those sort of books - as long as its not a bloody supernanny one!!

Kay, I would never recommend anything to do with that nobhead! That book is supposed to be a gentle way.

Sounds good!
My only worry is if they are aimed at 'babies' as Corey is more of a toddler who knows his own mind.....

Re: My pre-TTC and TTC blog - updated page 8!!!!!!!!!!!
There is a no cry toddler sleep book as well as the baby book, very much the same but it does cover kids up to about 5 I think. http://www.amazon.co.uk/No-Cry-Sleep-Solution-Toddlers-Preschoolers/dp/0071444912/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1263550248&sr=1-1 Another great book is adventures in tandem breast feeding, http://www.amazon.co.uk/Adventures-Tandem-Nursing-Breastfeeding-Pregnancy/dp/0912500972 Its doesn't say you must tandem bfeed but shows you how you can make it work if you choose to, and also offers some suggestions if you decide to stop, or even night wean.
Rhianna is still in our room, in a bedside cot, I tried a few months ago to get her settled in her room, but DH works early mornings so needs to go to bed early so it was left up to me completely and I was just too exhausted to keep going. Now we've switched her cot to his side so when the new one comes Rhianna will still be in our room, but wont hopefully will be happy to be comforted by dh instead of me.
I've told Chris he can sleep in the shed if need be, he can have Rhiannas room really, but just wanted to make the point, if I'm going to have to get a baby and a toddler to sleep without help, it's going to have to be where ever is easiest for me. As long as we all get enough sleep, its not important where it happens.
This is an option if you have your DH's support during the night http://www.drjaygordon.com/development/ap/sleep.asp
Huge hugs to you all!
