    Just seen an ad for 101 indie classics. looks good (although I've got most of the songs already), but why oh why do they always choose the worst Terrorvision song?!

    I've kept thinking about CD, but I don't think it'll be for me. I don't have the willpower, or the money, and even if I do well on it I'll just pile it all back on again.

    pap,

    milk monster is (touch wood) fast asleep. I've gone back to giving her formula milk before bedtime as I think the breast milk was digested too fast and she wasn't taking enough and at least I can see how much formula she's taking. So I'm down to one breastfeed a day and that will be transferred to formula in about 2 or 3 weeks (certainly by the time she's 8 months old)!

    Good luck with the interview. 14 years ago, I took a pay cut to take on a job with better prospects. For two years I earned less than if I'd stayed at NHS then the decent payrises started. I'm now earning about £8k a year more than if I'd stayed at NHS! That said, it wasn't about the money, it was about job satisfaction and opportunities which aren't available in the NHS.

    probably pm - so I know exactly where to find it. I calculated my BMI and 7 months of breastfeeding and I've lost nothing and I'm thinking I need to do something drastic for a couple of months to see a dramatic weight loss!

    Aww bless, I supposed formula itsnt cheap though. However if you and her get a good night sleep all is better. How old is she now? I gues if/when she goes into care while your at work formula would be better that expressing :confused: Sorry I know nothing about children so I cant help :rotfl:Thanks I know I am doing something that may seem silly to others but I am fine/happy to do it, sometimes you have to take a leap of faith... Fingers crossed :T Pm has been sent, I hope it helps a little :D

    Take care :beer:
