Will and I finally joined the NCT ladies for tea yesterday – the last baby of them all. Actually, I was a typical harrassed mother after the health visitor turned up half an hour late and then William started to bawl his head off and needed grub before we could go…so in the end I was only there for half an hour! It was lovely to see everyone though and hopefully now I can come back into the fold and be more of a regular fixture.
William’s doing really well, he’s up to 8lb 3ozs and everything else is fine. Apparantly we should try lying him on his front when he’s awake to help his head go back into shape. Poor little mite looks absolutely miserable on all fours leaning on his head and trying to turn his neck, but better that than dragging him off to a cranial osteopath. I feel really cruel, but we’ll try it whenever he’s calm and see if it works.
Now we just have to explain to Molly that the play mat is for the baby….
