Hi all.. (snipped of Rhysy bits)
She nearly fell over when I said I was still expressing :rotfl: Then hugged me when I said I was doing BFing supporter training
I told her I was stopping at a year "because I've done my bit then" and she said she thought I'd done more than my bit
Apparently her daughter didn't take to BFing so she expressed for 8wks and that was enough for her 
She said he's an amazing little boy who is doing remarkably well considering the start he had. Said she'd never been so stressed over a baby before and she'd still be talking about him when she's walking round with her zimmer frame
Told you you're amazing! 
I need tissues

I didn't think you worked Fridays
There are loads of other dates 
10am!! :eek::eek: I so won't be there :rotfl:
Can't do the 12th its OH birthday and he's got the day off work
:mad:why does everything clash!!
:rotfl:that's what I thought! Don't say it will be March before I see you :eek:
We could always arrange another mini meet at the Trafford Centre before then - hopefully Jillie, Dora, Jakesmummy )and everyone else who is close that I can't remember!) can come to.A very busy Yummy Mummy to a 1 year old gorgeous boy :smileyhea

That's outrageous! But you can follow up and say "Attempted to blackmail for return postage - see other recent feedback left by this buyer." Factual and not abusive at all

Jenny it was this one - expensive but it looks nice. Littlewoods have 3 for 2 on some of their swimwear too (tankini?) and MrsM was nice enough to give me some codes I can pass on if you want.
What an unpleasant woman, MOTM.
Thanks SS, will have a look at those. Also thanks for letting us know the TMI, I was too embarrassed to ask my HV when it should start getting better so had to ask my sister instead

Jenny- I want to go to buggyfit but think the cost is a bit prohibitive, plus you have to pre-pay a certain number of classes at our one which puts me off a bit.
...
When I asked about the price she said she wanted to charge for a number of sessions but hasn't got organised yet because she lost her licence and had to change the name of the group :eek: The class seemed good though so I'm not worried and like you I prefer to pay each week. Next week she is going to check if my muscles have come back together on my tummy :eek: I'm going to put off those situps until she has given me the all clear. Now I just need to find baby singing group and a swimming session for babies (and then I really will have to budget a bit better)

Hi all..
Well, Consultant is happy-ish :rolleyes: We can take him off two meds, reduce another (I already had.. shhhh
), and she's writing to kidney specialist (again!) to see if we can stop the weekly jab. I didn't realise but they've all had face to face meetings about Rhys, back in November!
Developmentally, she's very happy, but says she can feel some slight resistance in his arms and legs so wants the physio to give us exercises to do. Tbh, she said this last time and the physio dismissed it, but we have a new physio next month so we'll see what they say.
Weight wise, she said she wasn't happy when she saw the number on paper (4oz gain :cool:) but to look at him, he looks fine, not skinny and like "he has a good covering on him". We reweighed him and it was the same
She's not actually that bothered now she's seen him in the flesh so just the same as we have been doing and see how he goes
