MSE Parents Club Part 8

Well the presents under the tree are half what we have bought for people and half what other people have bought for us... That's acceptable for Aimee, she knows family members buy each other presents... Father Christmas presents appear after she's gone to bed christmas eve and are all in a pile for her... We open those first then look under the tree for any with our name on afterwards

can I ask if anyone has got or tried a bath dam?

They are £30 ish, so I don't want one unless I know it'll work but the baby bath is starting to annoy me and I've got a little bath cushion seat thing which I would prefer to use. I'm on a water meter so I don't want to run a full bath just for little Kezia and if the bath dam is any good it would save me a lot of money over time.

Never tried one harley - but i do have one of those baby baths that fit over your own bath. It has a deep lip all the way round to rest on the sides of the bath. Doesn't use as much water and you don't have to bend down as far.

Thats basically what I've told Aston, this is the first year where he's really into the whole xmas thing, love it!

Some folk are idiots. Van driver pulls into the other half of my street to drop someone off and is now stuck. He managed to go sideways a bit, but is now stuck. And folk have decided to abandon their cars on my street so I'm now blocked in by cars.

ETA, its a council truck (long one) not a van and he is digging himself out now.

Are you sore or just tender? If you're properly sore then it's all about positioning I'm afraid, try moving him down a touch so he is absolutely level with your nipple... Try not to move as you latch him on, if we move, we find ourselves in unsustainable positions and eventualy, throughout the feed you find the nipple being pulled, or dragged on... Have you tried lying down feeding? It's a real life saver during the night feeds... And do you know where your local booby group is for after the christmas holidays?

Don't expect a bottle of formula to have magnificent sleep inducing qualities... Some babies might sleep better after one, but not all... (and definitely not my eldest!!) but if it works for you, then go for it

Its a bit tender and the minute he latches on and starts feeding then its really sore...MW did suggest expressing as he doesnt seem to like feeding from my right boob but prefers my left for some reason. Mind you she said boys are lazy feeders.... Where will I find out about local booby group?

Hi SM, Really please Zoe had a good day, hope the cold comes to nothing. And even more glad that your mate paid for her own kids. I was thinking about it last night and was starting to get quite annoyed on your behalf.

Sounds like you deserve a rest so cuddle up and get cosy and relax for a while.
