Before you Marry

I did thanks Sami.

I got a Nuby from BB too - sent the an email as I don't think it's appropriate cos I'm not breastfeeding, so a bottle that make breast to bottle easier isn't much use to me. I haven't heard back so I'm probably black listed now :mad:

I don't like it that much, although Caitlin seems to love it :rolleyes:. It's such a palaver to put together.

A question for you expressers out there...do you squeeze (for want of another word) your boob as you pump? I have found that if I hold my boob in different places when the flow slows I can get more out

I haven't tried that but will do...anything to get some more out. The only problem is it'll take two hands, so how will I browse MSE at the same time?

I have not tried the magic sponge on the glass yet... On account of I only cleaned it with metal scourers about 4 months ago so it doesn't need doing just yet :rotfl: I'll try it tomorrow and let you know...

Oooh, I'd like to know please as my oven is in dire need of a clean - anything to make it easier is very welcome!

Birmingham is about 200 miles/four hours by car for me. :sad:

Thanks, FG. This app is at the baby clinic about 30 min walk away, I could drive but there's no parking.

I had the first baby app at the hospital and my check up was at home, but they want to do the next one at the clinic. I use to have all my pregnancy apps at the doctors, which was just around the corner but they couldn't see me there. Tad annoying.

:eek: That's really bad that they expect you to be going out to appointments at 6 days - I had the midwife coming to the house for two weeks.

We'd all have to have 2 sticky labels... 1 with our chat names and 1 with our real ones :rotfl:

Except for those of us who's names are pretty obvious from their user names.

I used to massage depending on how well it was coming out.

Otherwise, stories from here are recounted as 'a person on my forum says........'. I think if I gave you names it would freak him out.

I usually say, "Someone on the MSE parents thread..." Sometimes he sees it when I'm reading and starts reading out people's usernames in an incredulous manner.

Now I'vs caught up with last night's posts....

Morning all :wave:

Not a great night here last night but not too bad, so I can cope

We're off to Rhyme Time this morning and then to Tesco to get a few bits.

Hope everyone has a good day.

Morning!
Liam slept from about 9ish till 6:30 ish then had another 45 mins with daddy. He did wake a few times around 4 but that was cos he was cold, and thats hubby's fault :mad:

Hubby did the 11:30 dreamfeed so that I could gave a peaceful half hour in bed - but he kept disturbing me with questions...he then decided he needed his nappy changing cos he had pooped...being a smart-!!! he decided to change him in the cot rather than on the change mat, he also doesn't get the nappy open before he takes off the dirty one, and he often leaves him wit a bare bum whilst he wraps up the old nappy...all of this resulted in Liam weeing...me getting a call for help...a change of cot bedding, a change of clothes for liam and a wet sleeping bag :mad: he hadn't even pooped, so didn't even need to be changed!!!

It would have been quicker a less stressful to do it nyself, and liam wouldn't have woken upat 4, cos he wouldn't have been able to kick off his sleeping bag :rolleyes: Luckily, he went off quickly after being cover up and holding hi habd whist he nuzzled into it - so cute!

Sorry for the rant.

:T yay for meets and weddings
Painfree vibes for jabby babies x

Hmmmm ..... Birmingham? With you lot? And all the kids?

*Runs like mad in the opposite direction ............... :rotfl:

Actually, for me, it obviously depends on date, and how Andrew is doing at that point. We're probably not up for any meets until next year, seeing as he wasn't due until November so probably won't escape until then. Marley was vaguely suggesting the idea of a huge MSE picnic in Heaton Park, Manc, next summer .........

anyway on a baby related note my baby wont eat breakfast at the moment she wants to eat everything herself, so what do you all give you babies? she has just had half a slice of toast

I meant to say, we fed (and mostly still feed) Elijah whatever was around that seemed like a good thing - toast often, banana often, yogurt or fromage frais, left-overs from supper like bits of yorkshire pud maybe, strawberries or raspberries, a cookie... just whatever really. If she seems to like it, let her try it?

Gah! Makes the day so hard after that! Good luck struggling through...

We had the reverse "problem" this morning, such as it was... he had bursts of miseries last night around 11.30ish

(yesterday afternoon he had
a) eaten shoe polish (a VERY small amount thank the lord)
b) had a big egg bruise on his forehead from headbutting a tree
c) was coughing and snotting everywhere in a cold-y manner),

but since then he slept through - he ALWAYS wakes between 6.30 and at the very latest 7.15, but this morning at 7.45 he was still snuffily sleeping and I had to let OH know I hadn't fed or changed him then creep silently out...
I hope he's ok I feel bad for not properly checking, but I thought if he's sick the best thing is to get the sleep he needs...

ooh Heaton Park is only 15 mins away in the car from me and just up the road from the IL's and it's lovely to have a picnic in, it was somewhere we considered when getting married, was just a tad too expensive!
