Equalopps,

no I'm not gina ford ................................... yes wife reads gina ford every week. she is such a contended little baby. she's constantly smiling or giggling and eats like anything. She weighs nearly 20 pounds (6 months old).

My twins were Gina Ford and I expect the new baby to be too. However I think that like any methodolgy it cant be applied rigidly - eg I suspended it if the kids had colic. But the routine bit is very important.

question for the naive,

what's Gina Ford

Milan.

[BrilloPad]

has this happened to anyone else ?


Milan.

no - you are the only one! :-)

happened to all at some stage - one French friend was taking his one year old daughter back to South-East France from London. Huge delays and they got really tired - daughter slipped from buggy and broke her leg. Parents distraut.

Gina Ford - the contented baby. Have a quick google search. Tends to divide parents - they love it or hate it. Has to be started early or does not work nearly as well.

I think that gin holds the key.

Enough, and you'll never hear 'em...

HTH

Ear plugs work well, but you don't half feel guilty when you go into their room in the morning after a restful nights' sleep, only to find they've been sick everywhere and obviously rolled around in for most of the night!!

My 2 year daughter normally zeds for England but her silly mother fired her up for her birthday today and she was up at 3:30 saying 'presents, presents, presents' !!!

my daughter is going to be 6 months this friday. She sleeps from 7pm - 10:15. we have to wake her up for a quick feed at 10:15 and she's asleep at 10:45. This morning she was still out of it at 7am. Shes be doing that for around 3/4 months now.

Best thing I have ever done was to have her. she's great.

Mine is 5 months, she sleeps from 10.30pm to 6am most nights. Though we should probably start putting her to bed earlier.

Totaly agree, best thing I have ever done
