    I feel no guilt whatsoever about giving Amber her bottle of formula at night. Partly because it gets me some sleep and partly because I am very proud of myself for breast feeding the rest of the time for over 3 weeks and through 2 bouts of mastitis even in the first week when I knew I could have gotten her out of special care by switching to formula. My best was 2 weeks with DS1 and DS2. :D:D:D
    I think it's very impressive that you've continued through all of that. I've never had mastitis but I gather it's very bad and I can imagine having your child in special care and knowing that just switching to formula would get her out must make it very tempting to switch. I was so close to giving up without all of those added difficulties.

    I remember being on the ttc thread and Elle coming back to join :( I cried for you :o
    I also have ur mum's announcement bookmarked, I can't bring myself to delete it

    Ed has just been crying for at least 30mins before finally nodding off :confused: not a clue what was wrong and all after I'd just been telling MIL's best friend how good he is :rolleyes::p
