I don't find the nappies much a bother really either. They're getting slightly worse now we're on solids, but not much. I do find the constant cleaning up after meals a bit exhausting but I"m gradually getting it down to a fine art. The mess pales in comparison to sleep issues.

With the birth charts, there are two issues I guess - whether you are moving percentiles and which percentile you on. Owen is below the 0.4th percentile but because his graph is the same shape as all the others these days, the docs seem to have decided that he's just genetically small, and apparently has the 'genetic potential' to be because I am. But any baby below the 2nd percentile should be checked to be on the safe side according to my friend's husband who is a paed.
