    I have seen Fritha do it, she made it look easy but I have trouble loosening the straps while I'm wearing it. a BF specific top like helps apparently.

    It does help as trying to yank your top up while it's tied underneath a sling is an adventure! (Bet you can't guess how I know that!)

    It is easy one you get the hang of it, essentially sproglet is tied in the joey they yell for milk, untie the knot under their bum, and retie it further down the straps, then jiggle and jump and wiggle until they're lower down and the knot is tight under their bum again. The opposite of getting them in basically! I can demonstrate at the next sling meet (Weds 10-12) if you remind me!

    Kindof, is he feeding well? Has he lost a lot of weight? Basically otheriwse healthy?

    If he is feeding well and his weight is good then usually they will want him to stay another 24-48 hours for monitoring and then you can get home. Night before they will ask you to room in with him, usually in a room in SCBU or on a ward if no space just to make sure you are ok over night. Is he breast fed or formula fed?

    Hi

    Yes he is having 60mls every 3 hours, its expressed milk topped up with formula cos i haven't been able to express as much as he needed being away from him for 2 days.

    We just tried him on the breast and he knew what to do but we werent successful :( we are trying again at 2.15

    Just try and relax hun, he'll pick up on it if you're anxious... I'm sure you'll get the hang of it! :)

    In eight months all we've had is a book and a cleaning spray.

    Is that bizziebaby then Susan? If it helps all we've ever got was a set of three small pink food pots which were very nice but only replaced something I would have spent 60p on and don't get used now!

    I have to confess I'm not impressed so far but there's still time yet and they do say:

    We do not guarantee to send items out every month, but we do guarantee that for your £5.00 annual membership you will receive a selection of items during the year that will far exceed your annual membership fee of £5.00.

    So I'm hopeful!

    all i have recieved is a nursing bra and when i asked about other products i was told it was luck of the draw! i was quite disappointed as i know a few people have recieved a few products and with 5 kids i thought there would have been a better selection with their ages(obviously not lol!)

    We've only had two things from BizzieBaby. One was a bunting set of wall stickers, but there was only enough to do one wall in Charlotte's room. She likes them though.

    The other was a promo edition of a Pop Party CD, but it wasn't packaged like a bought CD - just like one you would burn at home with no printing on. They all listened to it, but we already had most of the songs downloaded from iTunes.
    Here I go again on my own....

    Just caught up but I'm on my phone so can't multi quote and have forgotten everything! Watching skins now, fingers crossed the gorgeous freddie isn't dead!!

    Mel what is the name ????
    There is a good reason why the accented e is banned but I've forgotten it now :doh:

    Is there?? How bizarre!

    I haven't had a reply of tech yet if I don't get one soon I will pester them again.... I think they should at least tell me the reason why it is sensored.

    I can't tell you the name as MSE won't let me;)

    Yes it is. The book was a bit gimmicky and not really suitable for someone who is actually into books/reading and I normally just use vinegar sprays or soapy water for cleaning. "Officially" they were worth more than the membership fee though so I'm not very hopeful.

    You could always put it on the facebook group Mel ;)

    I've just been looking at the Nestle fan page on facebook... It's quite amusing... I'm guessing some people have a different meaning for the word "fan"
