SharpMolarBear · 04/11/2007 21:51

wo, he's not really unsettled, not upset, just wide awake! Maybe a drop of brandy in his bottle?

I let ernie into bed with me most nights last week - but seems happy back in his cot at home and only woke once last night

My 4 year old has started waking up at 5am and shouting 'daddy' full pitch to wake the whole house which is even more hideous

Have you tried just putting him down in cot? (may be obvious/asked before but just curious!)

It's usually £10 for the pinafore and £10 for the nappy, but she does the set for £18. I'm paying £22 total - £18 for the set, £2 to have bamboo velour on the inside of the nappy and £2 p&p.

SharpMolarBear · 04/11/2007 21:57

wo, why do you still want to sleep with C? Is it worry or just easier? (Sorry, not judging, just curious, but couldn't think of a better way to phrase it!)
octo, I have in the past oput him down when he looks tired and he's slept, haven't really thought of trying it tonight as he seems so awake, might give it a go if he's still awake after his next feed - I'll let you know!!)

weeonion · 04/11/2007 21:59

smb - i guess it is just worry. she is till in her hammock which doesnt take up that much room in our bedroom. her nursry is rigth next door to us - so not too far away. i dunno - it just feels better for me - for a while at least. havtn broken the news to dp as yet

SharpMolarBear · 04/11/2007 22:01

i love sleeping with T, not an option tho unless dh away or we sleep downstairs on the floor
Is she getting too big for the hammock? If it's worry then it sounds as though you're doing the right thing.

weeonion · 04/11/2007 22:04

nay - she bounces away happily in the hammock so another while in it.

Gosh am getting a bit confused about which thread to post on but have gone for this one as I have a girl who is very into rolling now - and may set off commando style any day - her big sister did! B is still in our room - and will be for some time as we don't have any other rooms to put her in She spends most of the night in her cot but I have no hesitation in bringing her in bed with me if its cold or I'm too tired to do otherwise! I'm not planning on anymore and I want to enjoy this.

Wo - if its what you want to do and it makes you happy then do it. Babies grow up so quick, dont waste the time doing what you think you should just enjoy it however you want!

And ive just realised i didnt refresh before posting this so aplologies for all x posts this was about wo wanting to sleep in room with c!

D is still in moses basket by my bed but the rate hes just started growing i think prob not for much longer

weekends are just not the same without an octo hit

PillockOfTheCommunity · 04/11/2007 23:31

can I please confess that I always thought Octo was a bit tree-hugger/domestic goddess like
but then I met her and the illusion was quickly shattered
