  • where can i get measured properly for a bra? ...

    my boobies have deflated and my backs changed since losing the weight need to get measured properly rather then guessing x

    M&S are good.

    Hmmm, I have a bouncer chair for A with bounce and vibrate functions but he doesn't like them so I am sat here bouncing it with my foot :rolleyes:
  • Posh undies shops will do it too - la senza and the like. Does anyone know where else other than mothercare might do nursing bras? I need to get a few more after payday, but I don't know where I can get them from.

    Do you need to use Whole Milk when making stuff like Mash for LO's?

    You can use semi or skimmed and it'll be fine. I tend to use whole milk for drinks and cereal and then just whichever I had most of for mash, cheese sauce etc.

    Bit personal, but are have you got big ones?! If you are D cup or above, Bravissimo is fabulous. They really look after you and will sort you out.
    Aww Becles that picture is fabulous. How sweet of Charlotte to want to hug her bro :)

    They love each other to bits. She's always kissing and hugging him.
    Here I go again on my own....

    M&S and Debenhams do nursing bras and measuring.
  • Hi DKAM. We've not organised a meet yet. How far are you ok to go when you have a car - we met up in Basingstoke last time but were talking about doing Winchester next time. (Not for me ... I'm happy to go anywhere, it's just central!) Is that too far for you?

    I have a pesky baby this afternoon ... she is hungry, but keeps leaving her food and coming to me for milk instead, then going back to her lunch again. And she keeps trying to climb on the table, and complaining when I won't help her. :rotfl:
    I'll have to see exactly how far winchester is from here, I've never heard of it, I dont think baisingstoke is far.
    But anyway, once I get me new moat moat I'll be more than happy to drive anywhere! :j

    I'd say M&S over La Senza too - I was measured in La Senza and although I had six boobs in all the bras the woman gave me to try on she refused to believe I might not fit in the damned things and I left in a strop.

  • Bra's, apparently Bravissimo are good and Debenhams, but also apparently M&S are a bit keech.
    I did a thread AGES ago on here, but it was about big boobies! :rotfl:

    Amber had her first proper fun bath tonight, she spent most of it on her tummy (with my arm under her shoulders) so she could splash and was proper giggling. Then DS2 jumped in (socks and tshirt still on) so she thought that was sooo cool and went mental.

    I think she may crawl soon, she is really throwing herself around when you hold her sitting on the floor which is just weird. DS1 just did rolling over and over to move about and Christopher didn't do any of that so having a wriggly baby is strange.
  • Posh undies shops will do it too - la senza and the like. Does anyone know where else other than mothercare might do nursing bras? I need to get a few more after payday, but I don't know where I can get them from.

    I have bought some from M&S yesterday pack of 2 for £25 and they are comdy. Also got 2 for same price from Debenhams - Miriam Stoppard ones - and they are good too. Those ones have 2 layers so even when the cup drops down there is material there covering most of your boob. I will be wearing these ones when I may need to feed in public.

    That's so sweet. I was like that with my sister when I was little and so hope that when I have another they will be like that.

    I will second that. La Senza sizes are really small.
