    Em can't hurt to complain, you could always send a letter to the store manager without your address if you don't want them to contact you...

    Weezl - hope you don't mind me saying this but are you sure you want to give BF a go again? I think you are incredibly brave if so. Have you had the hyper sensitivity looked into? would anaesthetic cream help do you think?

    I never mind you saying sami :):p

    I asked the midwife about my sensitivity and she's going to raise it with a consultant colleague, but it's not looking good cos the only interventions they could think of were surgical, and dangerous in PG.

    Also Kristal raised a good point that perhaps if I was completely numb then BF might not work cos some stimulation of the nerves is required to keep supply going....

    DH did bring me some topical anaesthetic cream and we tried a 20 min experiment, but alas to no avail :(

    Thanks for saying it's brave to try :o:A. Well done you on Edgar being exclusively BF for so long :T:beer:

    Glad I didn't offend :) and you are brave - I've never doubted that :D I think anyone that has HB on their first is brave :)
    Thank you, I'm quite proud of myself although I have been very lucky :) x

    Can I ask a silly question please? If you were to say a baby's exclusively breastfed, does that mean only milk from the breast or does EBM count?

    Molly's had a couple of EBM bottles but has now taken against them and refuses to take them at all. I had to take a taxi home from the hospital earlier on because she wouldn't feed from the bottle and was hysterical.
