    Hmm... I don't think Rhys has quite mastered the art of typing on a laptop. He was sat on my knee, stretched to reach the keys (I let him type to Grandma on MSN occasionally) and ripped the space bar straight off and threw it on the floor :eek: Mummy wasn't very happy at all but Daddy came to the rescue and made it all better! :o
    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    Ryry done that with the A key, Aston got all hysterical because he thought he wouldnt be able to type his name!

    Additional info: She says he will only feed from one side, he won't latch on on the other side. It's the side he won't latch on to thats causing her major leakage problems. But she has been expressing milk from that side :undecided It's also just leaked loads again?

    At the moment bubs is being fussy and not latching on to the side he usually feeds from either.

    I had this problem too (or rather Caitlin did!). This won't work if baby is being fussy about both sides, but if he is only being fussy on one side, suggest to PP that she hold him in the same position on the fussy side as she does on the non-fussy side.

    I'm not sure that makes sense. I'll try and explain...

    When you feed from the left side, baby's head is on the left hand side of your body and feet are on the right hand side of your body. When you feed from the right side, baby's head is on the right hand side of your body and feet are on the left hand side of your body. Caitlin liked feeding off my left side, so when I needed her to feed off my right side, I kept her head on the left hand side of my body and her feet on the right hand side, I just shifted her whole body to the right so her mouth was in line with my right boob. I don't know whether this confused her into thinking that she was feeding off my left side or whether it was just that she preferred laying that way to feed.

    Does that make sense? I'll try and explain better if it doesn't :D

    GISI and Elle - glad you enjoyed your groups today and met some nice RL mummies.

    Em - sounds like lunch was a bit of a nightmare for you both :(

    SS - your husband is lovely. Have a nice meal tonight :)

    MFD - hope your Chinese is nice. Have a good night :)

    Well done to Andrew on his weight gain.

    Tia - oh no on the loola. That's pants :(

    DKAM - is that account a joint account? If it's not, report him to the police. Have you been given a timeframe for when you can move? Where are you at the moment?

    Jillie - Caitlin has done that too a few times. She has only ever rolled about 5 times (think she's a bit lazy :D) but most of those have been during the night in her cot! I don't know how she manages to turn 180 degrees either, she never moves that much when she's on the floor and I'm watching her!

    Mel - hugs for poorly Kai. Hope he feels better soon. How are you and bump doing?

    Karen - I can't view your FB pic of Tegan :(
