    Thanks Kindof, I can't wait til they're gone, just wish they'd never come back :P I don't get snobbery over second hand clothes, it's not different from things being passed down, which they think's perfectly fine - i.e. we should have SILs old car seat, high chair etc, hypocrites!

    p.s. I have one of those cards for the DS, just going to try and work out how to get games for it now!! Bro got it for me for Xmas & filled it with stuff that I don't want and now I don't know what to do lol
    Baby Boy arrived March 25th 2010 - 17 days late & 8lb 10oz :j

    morning all ,

    yay choccie , i am off there in 10 mins , may see you there :P i will have a tshirt what says , SHHH dont wake baby lol , and pair jeans :P

    on the feeding matter , I am bottle feeding from day 1 , no BF for me , had bad experience with my oter children and not even cotemplating doing it , i have some formula in packets to take but no bottles will double check with MW today if i need to stereilise bottles and take with me ,
    Everyone has there own choice , do not be forced into doing something you dont want to do , it could bring on PND , which is what happened with my first , and to stop milk coming in after birth i always used cold cabbage leaves in my bra , they cool em and dry up the milk quick , HTH :P

    bad nights sleep i think i get hour at a time at the moment adn its awful , i am so tried ,

    Oh silent witness last night was one of the best i have seen and cant wait for tonights ,

    also watched micheal mcintyre last night , OMG how funny he is , recommended for anyone who wants a good laugh

    well of to MW now catch u laters
    Dont forget that little Thanks button , only takes a sec

  • Gymfiend - they sound a nightmare, sending you hugs!

    Having just read the last few posts, it just reminded me that I wanted to say a huge 'thank-you' to everyone on this thread, as I realised that I think this is the only forum that I've seen discuss the whole breast feeding/bottle feeding debate without becoming judgemental on either side.
    For me personally, after having a lot of problems last time and feeling bullied and very depressed, it really spoilt the first few months with my baby, so this time I've decided to bottle feed. However, I feel really defensive and guilty (and ashamed!), and so I feel very vulnerable on the topic, and just about everywhere that I've seen it discussed, it invariably turns into a good mother/bad mother type argument.
    So I just wanted to say how much I appreciate this thread.
    ;) Working hard in the hopes of being 'lucky' ;)
