we are moving next weekend, well we are moving out of this house next weekend, not sure of moving in date?!? Anxious, me, no never!!!!! Anyway wondering how best do this with a very adventureous 10 month old, any tips anyone? He can go to both nanny and granny for 1 day each, although he is suffering a bit of separation anxiety at the moment aswell. He loves exploring in the new house and has so far dealt well with new sitiations, holidays etc.
The most annoying thing is he is finally sleeping through and i am worried that this will send him back to hourly wakings!! I am prepared for this, but if anyone has any tips on minimising stress (DS's mostly, i think mine is un-minimisable!!) they would be gratefully recieved

I moved house with a 9mo and I still get goosebumps thinking about it, but then I had no one to leave her with and had to do all the packing etc. in between her meals, trips to the park etc. and constantly keep her from pulling things out of boxes (DP was finishing off building our house so couldn't help).

My stress levels were sky high but DD wasn't in the least bit fazed and didn't seem to notice, so your DS will probably be OK. Her sleeping pattern didn't really change either, although we had her in our room for the first couple of months until hers was ready. I would take all the help you're offered, if you're worried about leaving DS for the day, then maybe get the person who's looking after him to come to you, but take him out at frequent intervals, so at least he can see you some of the time but you can get on and do things.
