  • I seem to be getting absolutely nowhere with this moneysaving lark.
    I'm beginning to think that I might as well just let them come and get me. It's exhausting and soul destroying.
    How do you lot manage and keep going?

    Snaggles, natasha looks gorgeous and i'd be delighted if Evie ends up half as cute! I'm still waiting for the doctors to come round. :(

    Awww thanks :) Evie will be beautiful (already is, I'm sure - babies are amazing! :A), and once she starts gaining weight she will soon catch up, don't worry.

    When I've been at my lowest points, I've had a diary on here, taken a deep breath and posted my SOA. Talking about my money situation openly and honestly really helped - it felt like a weight had been lifted - and the support I got was amazing. I was pregnant during my 'peak' DFW time, and then a new Mum with a newly diagnosed autistic son and a depressed husband, so I really desperately needed what these lovely people gave me. :A :A

    Aww, thanks! She's always looked quite girlie just because she was blonde and quite delicate looking, but since she's started growing hair (finally!!!), she's definitely looking more like a proper little lady! :D

    (Until she opens her mouth :rotfl: she's a right little foghorn!!)
    Well she is a Yorkshire lass :D

    Hi Spudley :wave: hows the diet going?

    Hey Booky, I know what you mean, but I think the more you put into it the more you will get out of it thats not to say you aint putting enough in. But it is very daunting. Have you started a diary yet? That way people can see what you are doing, what you arent doing, suggest how could do things differently. Hang on in there

    Ok, we've just seen the doctor and we're (i'm) going to persevere with breast feeding but do top-up feeds with formula afterwards. Hopefully i can in home today and be followed up by community midwives at home in a couple of days to see if Evie has gained any weight.
