I meant to ask how do you know said student midwife & Bfing peer supporter? She's talked me into doing the BFinf Peer supporter training at my local childrens centre which only started on monday if you wanted to come along with me?

You are giving Rhys your milk anyway and its good to see people still managing to feed their baby when you all have been through so much!

Have known her since pre-school - we used to play in the street together. Our parents still live around the corner from each other, and she was in my sister's class at school

The supporter one? Surprised she didn't stay on but then I guess she can't do everything!

I sent her a msg saying when she got to the vasa previa part of her course she could call on me if she needed to for a RL story, and to say I was still BFing (in a fashion), hence her reply on my FB wall

G was there (on the wards supporting new mums, but came down to join us for the end) when I went to the BFing session I was booked on before Rhys arrived, but then cancelled a few days after he was born, then turned up for anyway... and got some very funny looks for being a size eight with a flat tum, surrounded by all 34+ wk pregnant women!

Elle - knowing what a fan you are of WTP I thought you might be interested in the little fleece top I bought for Benjamin today:



I haven't been a big fan of all the WTP stuff he had bought for him but I thought this was very cute!!

NOW I know what WTP stands for - been wondering that for ages but kept forgetting to ask

Thanks to everyone for advice on travel cots and reflux (Bruno).

Had a nice lunch out with my team from work - glad I wasn't going back with them afterwards though! Then I went to pick up a pair of boots I had ordered a couple of weeks ago so really pleased I have nice comfy boots to wear instead of trainers for a change!

On the last thread, there was some discussion about the use of honey, so thought I would post this story about a baby in Scotland who has contracted botulism this week:

I posted that yesterday and talked about it at Tiny Stars today - it was amazing how many people didn;t know about the dangers of honey!

I need new trainers/flat boots and new jeans - only my black skinny jeans fit now.

MM - Hope you're enjoying Jas' birthday! I have text you

Elle - meant to say Fab News about Rhys weight gain :j

Oh, Andrew was coming home today wasn't he?!!! How exciting!

Oh oh oh.. friend just replied - talk about gushing with enthusiasm!

She suggested I either go along to the group on Monday 1-3pm or could wait until January and do the next one. We have physio next Monday at 3pm which would be hard to rearrange so I think we'll go for the January one.. I think.. Oh, what to do?! She said I can take Rhys with me and it's a six week course so I think it'd be best to do it all..

Eeek! :eek: Go for it, do you reckon? My mum's just pointed out it'll make everything I've done even more worthwhile if I can help someone else..
