    For the breast feeding and bottle feeding - just wanted to say it can take a while before you can exprese enough for one bottle but you can add the milk from different expresion sesions together till you get a full feed (milk has to be at the same temp so i used to store in fridge and when the newly expressed bit was cold i would add together.....)

    good point: the midwife did mention this too. She said that as long as the milk was kept for no longer than 36 hours (I think?) from the first batch to be kept, it was just fine to add to it during the day :)

    My brain is all mushy today and can't concentrate on much but thanks for the BS WM and Lolly, both were really interesting. I'm thinking I should get my OH to read them so he knows what to expect and will be a bit more supportive than I currently think he will!

    Noogle is starting to get really heavy and my pelvis just aches when I walk, luckily I'm still comfy on my chair at work but for some reason that is the only place I'm comfy for any length of time! Also been really hungry recently and sleepy - just like I was in the first tirmester but luckily without the morning sickness this time.

    Glad to see you back Squishy and welcome to the newbies :)

    Princesswoo is due for a c/s on Thursday and she is having a girl I think, so ML will have to hurry up to beat her! Harley is due a girl too, so there are quite a few coming up. Is Lil Miss a girl too? I can't remember.

    lol am trying! just added a whole teaspoon of chilli seeds to my spag bol :D Absolutely no signs of cub preparing to come out though so I think princess woo will beat me to it.

    Only 2 of the 7 NCT ladies in my class not dropped yet and 4 were early, 1 on time! So wondering why I'm still here :rolleyes: V jealous of all their lovely sproglets. :p

    Mummy2 - I have re-posted the list and added Musogirl. Apparently if you quote it and post, it doesn't show up in a search so maybe that's why you had disappeared (but maybe not!).

    Right, I'm off to get measured for nursing bras. Wish me luck - I hope they have some big enough!!! x
  • ooooo Glam, Wm and Xmas,,,,,,babys look so cuddly,,,i dont think i can wait now,,,its just getting to exciting
