Do you have a spare room? I would be putting hubby in there - you need your sleep. It is hard enough to sleep at this stage of your pregnancy without having to deal with that!!

#1 was induced 7 days late, #2 was induced 10 days late and the labour with #2 was twice as bad. 9 hours from induction to birth and a 9 pound 9 baby. I am now pregnant with #3 (due Christmas Eve...

My 2 girls are very alike. I thought when the second one was born it was scary how similar they are. Both have big brown eyes, dark brown hair - and now at 10months and 3 1/2 years people comment...

Hi - I mix my homemade food with a small amount of jar food (2 cubes of veges, 1 of meat, 1/2 tin of veges). My 10mth seems to think this is okay and I am happy because I know the majority of food...

Hi, I was informed that adult Weet-Bix are very high in salt and should not be offered to children until they are at least 5 years old. The children Weet-Bix are from the age of 1. Hope this helps.

Hi - I went to a workshop here in Canberra last week with Tizzie Hall. She is a big fan of the 'gro bag'. The best test for the appropriate sized sleeping bag is whether your baby's head can fit ...

Hi - which formula are you using? They say that goat's milk formula is sweeter and more like breastmilk. You are doing well to get him to take a bottle - my 9 mth old won't have a bar of the bott...
