    Glam - FWIW, when I re-did the EDD list the other day, I only deleted people with births more than 1 month old...so I think the rough default is all births stay on there about a month no matter how many babies go at once :). Don't worry, we're not trying to get rid of you! :D

    kindof - that story is going to give me nightmares, yeeeeesh.

    I thought I would give an update on my bounty pack. I didn't phone the MW or anything, I just waited until my 24 week appointment to ask. However, I was really quite annoyed when she told me they don't give them out in our area. Because they promote breast feeding and the bounty pack contains a sample or literature on bottle feeding.

    I have always really wanted to breast feed, however, this made me angry, what happened to freedom of choice? What if I have problems feeding and have to bottle feed? What about when I return to work, surely they should be giving information about sterilising and making up feeds for when the baby's older.

    If they have to set challanges/targets on such things, surely they could still give out the packs, but just remove the information they don't want us to have. I'm missing out on all those other freebies!!

    *Feel free to skip, bounty moan approaching!!*

    Hi Meigle, I have exactly the same problem with the bounty pack. I have asked my midwife on numerous appointments about getting one and they dont seem to even know what they are!! So when I went to the hospital to have my anti D injection I asked the lady there and she said the bounty woman was coming in the following day so she would ask her about it, yay!! So the hospital lady rang me the following day to say she was sending me a pack in the post :T I was so chuffed I was finally getting it sorted. However that was 4 or 5 weeks ago and I havent received it yet :( I know its prob not even that exciting but its the fact that the first one starts off a series of packs you can collect and its bugging me, lol!! I cant see anywhere on the bounty website to contact them to tell them either as I understood it that all preg woman should get them.

    *Moan over*

    Well Ive finally caught up and will going to bed shortly :o Only 2 and half weeks left at work so should be on more then :) Started to worry earlier as hadnt felt baby move in a while so sat and watched for a bit just now and he started to move, yey!!

    Had my 3rd antenatal class today, they had 2 breastfeeding mums bring in their babies and to talk about breastfeeding, the babies were only like 4 and 8 weeks old and sooooo cute :D
