    I got a new changing bag! Well it's actually a giant handbag. The boots one was getting too small what with bottles, flask and all the usual gen!

    Glam, firstly, oh yesh he fleckin ish!

    Secondly, woohoo on no dream feeds, he been sleeping through?

    Yep :D Well, he did last night. Was either the A&P powder settling him, putting him down on his front OR the jabs have finally worn off. Last bottle 9.15pm - first bottle 9.15am! So tonight, last bottle was 8.30pm so hoping to go til 8.30am. Though he only had 3ozs - trying to bring that one forward so we go 8pm til 8am.

    Sami - think about table wise. Chris will obviously sit with us cos he's a big boy but would Ed be more comfy in highchair or pushchair. If you think pushchair then don't take sling. SIMPLES :D

    SM - last time we were there for about 2 hours. But like Jillie said we did get evils. We'll have to stay 2hours and then order pudding so we can stay another hour :rotfl:

    MM - yes I do love you all than sleep (although if I wake up at midnight tonight to what I woke up to at midnight last night then I might love sleep more ;))

  • Ok do you all promise NOT to laugh especially you, yes you, you know who you are!!!! Ok I know you will all laugh even tho you promised.
    I fell in a puddle of mud while out with the dog:rotfl: and have knackered my already knackered knee!!!:mad: Ok the knee bit isn't funny but I was covered in dubs and you should have seen the speed I picked myself outta the puddle at and carried on walkin, even tho my knee was in agony:rotfl:

    Ok now pick yourself off the floor!!!

    MM it's true whats goes around comes around and that serves e right for laughin at ur bum!!!

    Hi, just a quick post from me. Sorry not been on again, had another busy day!! Me and my friend did a talk on our experience of breastfeeding so far at our local antenatal class this morning. I really enjoyed it, they all asked lots of questions and it was nice talking about it and also about our births etc.

    Then we popped to a few shops, got myself some nipple shields to see if that helps with the pain and gives my nipples a chance to heal a bit!! Also got some variflow TT teats which DH used when giving Toby the expressed bottle tonight and he seemed to get on with them a bit better.

    Got my ebay parcels sent off too, yay!! Its easier when one of us can wait in the car with our babies and the other pops in the shop :)

    Toby is on another cluster feeding marathon tonight so must go as hes wanting more more more!! Hope ur all well.

    Beenie - get them, then take them back and just ask to swap them for the larger size. Tesco have done this for me before.

    Edit - Choppy me too! I am seriously considering taking one of my already scarce leave days to go.

    I've just checked the distance and the shortest route (according to Google Maps) is 136 miles aka just over 2.5hours :(

    SS Someone at the sling meet had a toddler in a wrap type on her back, and a new baby in a wrap type on her front. ;)

    ...

    Carrying two babies?!!! Strong woman!

    Had a lovely day today, went to visit an old school friend who has just had a baby and even though we weren't that friendly at school we had loads to talk about, stayed there for 4 hours! Just wish she lived a bit closer as it took me an hour to get there. Erin was on good behaviour apart from pooing three times while I was there and again when I got home :o I'm wondering if it's related to the macaroni cheese I had last night or something else as she doesn't normally poo that much.

    Wish I could meet you all in Manchester - I went to uni there for 5 years so know it well but looking forward to meeting Aless and others at the sling meet tomorrow.

    I'm off to bed now too ladies. I've just heard Caitlin start crying but it's gone quiet again, so hopefully I won't disturb her by going upstairs.

    Night night all
