My name in a thread title!

But you are off having a baby

I do indeed have tickets and shall return and get stupidly excited with you once you've finished being in labour

Going to go back and lurk on your May thread now!

Indith, sorry I didn't see this earlier!! Been off sacrificing my nipples to the God of Breastfeeding.

How the devil are you m'lovely? Am over the moon that you got tickets. I've started to panic about the logistics of taking this little person to CFF with me. She feeds constantly which means that all festival-goers will be treated to the frankly alarming sight of my struggling norks as I attempt to placate her red-faced and angry demands for yet more milk. I will distract with the wonderful array of tie-dyed clothes she owns. She's a true folkie in the making.

How's the quite adorable William? Had a sneaky look at your profile. Love the up the mountain pics- start 'em young! Tell me in all honesty, do they ever sleep for more than three hours at a time? If they don't then lie to me I beg you...

Ah but at least yours shall still be quite a small baby, I will have a 6.5 month old on my hands, huge and very hungry yet only just getting to grips with solids. Also far too distractable while feeding. The poor citizens of Cambridge won't know what's hit them! I've just hit E bay for a ring sling actually so hoping that will make things easier for out and about, can't get to grips with feeding in a wrap so I end up having to undo it all.

William is amazing, still feeding a fair bit at night but yes, they do start sleeping more! We seem to vary between 2, 1 or no wakings in the 12 or so hours he is in bed. He left it a bit late though I must say, I was feeding every 2 hours at night for quite a while (every hour during growth spurts!). I took him camping over Easter, it worked ok, kept him in my sling most of the time. Woke up at 4.30 though the little sod. Already trying to figure out a way to rig up blackout lining over him for CFF!

Glad Matilda is a folkie in training! Do you find she has her fave bands already? William loves Kate Rusby, I don't even play her that often but she was the concert we went to when i was pg and he relaxes so much when I play her! Found out the other day that he thinks the Dixie Chicks are fun to dance to. Not entirely sure about his taste in music there!

Oh July is going to be such a wonderful month, Harry Potter followed by CFF!

Glad to see you about MN anyway, sorry you had such a poo time of things.
