Fifi, goodness what a stressful day, you poor love! You sound brilliantly positive, though which is great to hear! So have you had an update about whether you'll definitely have to stay in, now? Are they monitoring you and then deciding? Or have they already decided? Glad you've got your mum there for support.
julfin with DD we were still in our 1-bed flat until she was 13 months, so we were all in the same room until then. We modified an IKEA cot and made it into a co-sleeper. When she started rolling, we put the side back on (i would come to bed and she'd have rolled over into my side!) but kept it next to the bed. And then when she was about 9mo I think?? we moved it to the foot of the bed. I was so happy to have a bedside table again for my book/glasses/kindle! But it was fine - completely doable. She suddenly started sleeping through at a year and has never looked back. When we moved house, she went straight into her own room without batting an eyelid.
Anna that's great that DD is making progress. A close friend has a little boy of 15mo who has never been a sleeper, he had a lot of reflux issues and now allergies and it seems to have really affected his learning to self-settle - either that, or just that some babies just don't sleep, I guess. She's had such an awful time of it and I'm in awe of her tolerance. I'm under no illusion that anything I did had much impact and I'm just grateful (and not complacent) every day for my current situation. You wait, my next one will be a complete bugger, DD will have a massive regression and you'll have a bombproof one just as DD hits her stride and starts sleeping 
beaut (I love that short form!) Teddy's birthday sounded lovely, bless him! Don't worry about bf in front of people - I was far happier about doing it in front of strangers in public than I was with family. So I used to take myself off. But that's def a reflection of my level of closeness with my family - we're just not, really. Most important thing is you being comfortable and you won't know that until after number 4 rocks up at the milk bar
On subject of bfing...the last couple of days I've been getting the milk let-down sensation in the old girls (basically when you start to feed, you usually - maybe not everyone - get a tingling, clenchy feeling as the boobs are stimulated and it stimulates your milk flow). I got it regularly when bf the first time, in the early days anyway. But don't remember getting in pregnancy. No leakage of any description, bit crusty but been like that for months (I'm so gorge). Anyone else? Me and my NCT friend used to call it 'wanging'. It's definitely a wang feeling.
Other delights of the week: the worst cramp ever, this morning. In all the opposing muscles of my lower leg and foot so as I stretched one, the other would solidify. I ended up standing up and treading on my own foot to keep my arch on the floor and stop my toes curling - and having to hurriedly explain to DP who came to see what all the heavy breathing was, that I wasn't in labour!
And I have a sore tongue - apparently it's a symptom of anaemia, which I'm currently trying to wipe out with Spatone - but no idea if that's what causing mine.
I've sent a FB request, btw - is that ok? I'm CN 
Look at the time, no wonder I'm falling apart. Night night, hope you're all peacefully slumbering and not cramping, dodgy-hipped, restless-legged, stomach acid-choking or just wide awake because like, we don't have enough to deal with, thanks Insomny McInsomniaface
