Evening ladies! Glam - hope you had a lovely day without us
Was going to suggest vari-flow teats but I am a few hours too late!

Talking of swimming - anyone know of any nice nursing bikinis? I'm back to my usual size 8 so don;t need big pants - just decent boob coverage! Would prefer a tie-side bottom but can;t find anything that doesn;t look like what my Granny would wear.

ETA - I'm a G cup currently so can;t really buy a bigger top on the high street as I don;t think they will fit. I have a size 14 top from when I was PG but it isn;t really decent!

Hi Skinty! IMHO there really is no point buying a nursing bikini, I have both and you are just as exposed in a nursing bikini as you are just popping your boob over the top of a normal bikini IYSWIM. I would suggest buying a larger bup size bra from bravissimo or somewhere similar. That way you can use it after you have finished feeding too (at 7m in Benjamin would rarely want a feed whilst we were swimming/by the pool - far too many interesting things going on!!)


Which reminds me - Benjamin has stopped feeding to sleep. He feeds but stays awake until he is finished, comes off, settles himself down and then goes to sleep alone!! If he doesn't want a feed he just goes to sleep!! Twice today we have 'assumed the position' for a feed then nap and he has opted just for the nap. Rationally I am so pleased, if he carries on it takes away the worry of stopping daytime feeds :T
But at the same time I am gutted that my baby doesn't want/need me the same as he used to!!

I'm here SM! I have been searching for these on the internet to tell you about!!

I bought my SIL these star shaped silicone cake moulds as part of her Xmas Gift:



They were £5 from Waitrose and I think that they are fab!! Some may say £5 is a lot for cake cases but I think that there are a lot of people out there who would really like these!!! Not a gift for anyone, granted, but it may be of use to someone


Edit - have just found them on this site (along with heart shaped ones!!) for £2.25 for 12!! Have never used that site though. They are about half way down.

em i always find a tablespoon of mixed herbs and a splash of wostershire sauce works ..

mfd i LOVE them ... not for a gift ... for ME! :rotfl: x

Well, I was well and truly stood up today wasn't I?? :rolleyes:

No 3, MFD, Sami or Sparkle - in fact only me and Fritha from MSE.

Ah, but it's quality not quantity! ;-) And jack was looking particularly big and grown up this afternoon! Sami/Glam I took the breast pads home they're in the back of my car so if yoo instruct me as whether you'd like me to keep them and bring them to the next sling meet or drop them off somewhere :-)
