Well, no need to be sick. She stopped after three nights in a row. But still, waking once between 7 and 7 isn’t too bad for a 10 weeks old, I guess

PS: Magical breastmilk potion a la Asterix. I get up very early every morning to pick the herbs whilst the mist is still hanging in the trees…

Well that is just sickening, frankly! Mine were 9 months before they did any of that sleeping-through thing. It’s still a bit of a gamble, even now to be honest and I always go to bed crossing my fingers.

Like, what is in that breastmilk of yours??? Harrumph!

@Home Mum of 2 (…): Good to have you back! And, erm… whisper… she is sleeping through since a few days. More sleep = more active brain cells = more capacity to create and think about irrelevant nonsense, yippieh!!

Ho ho ho – this post did make me laugh, Met Mum.

But then I had a thought. Surely you’re not physically allowed to be this funny with a newborn (and I think 9 weeks still counts as fairly newly born)??? Shouldn’t you still be obsessing about sleep, sleep and, er, sleep? I know I still am and my youngest is almost 2 years old. My sense of humour only returned…ummm…well, maybe I’ll get back to you on that one!

I can imagine the testers now, sitting around (in?) the chair, chain smoking and poking each other with their lit fags. It IS a mad world.

I think the tag on this bouncy chair actually says that it is ok to have a cigarette in this chair as long as you don’t wear this tee shirt or you could catch fire… I did spend a lot of time wondering why they felt the need to put this messages. It is all about health and safety so I wonder how many idiots tested its fire resistance…

There should be another tag on there telling you to take the tag off because the tag isn’t fire resistant, and then you’d need another tag….
It’s a mad, mad world!

LOL You have to wonder what kind of people are allowed to have children when baby clothes are required to have tags like that!

Great post:)

@Iota: What? I shouldn’t have let her drive? Must read lables more thoroughly.
