morning all- i'm suffering from pregnancy insomnia i think- been awake since about 3am!! was knackered when i went to bed @ 10pm... wike at 3, had a banging headache, finally decided to come down and take painkillers at 4.30am, they worked, but then i couldn't sleep still, so i sat writing all my 'lists' for our holiday stuff we need, savings we can have, baby things i still want need and working out next months budget so we can afford to pay the holiday all off (as we booked it and paid our 10% yesterday) and also have enough for me to order stuff essentials from verbaudet, and also be able to have enough left over to convince DH that buying me a luna will be a good idea!!
Then when i decided to try sleeping again at about 5.30ish DH started shaking and jittering in his sleep, heavy breathing etc, was worried he was having a bad dream so led up stroking his back to calm him.... seemed to work but left me wide awake!!!! been downstairs since just after 6am!! and haven't do anything exept tidy the PC desk, and come online.
Kay- regarding potty training i did DS when DD was about 8mths, he was just turned 2yo, and i have to say he was brilliant and was fully potty trained within a week.... however DD has just become potty trained at 2y 8.5mths.... i was too ill in the first few months to consider it, and luckily she's got it herself anyway now, so its been easy peasy with both. I highly recommend the Gina Ford 'potty training in a week' book... dont follow it to the letter if you dont want to (i didn't) but its great to have as a 'structure' to follow in your own way.
