    i felt awful posting that last bit.....

    but my mw told me when it looked like i would have to stop expressing that sometimes mums need to come 1st.
    and i had done well to have given him breastmilk for 9 days.

    Hi all :)

    Sorry to hear about your nan Claire :(

    Glam- please please don't feel bad over what turned into a ridiculous thread! To be honest I feel it is being milked ('scuse the pun) waaaaay too much now. Too many retaliation threads. You are a super mummy and however you feed your baby it doesn't alter how much you love them - I only bath Caitlyn once a week, but it doesnt mean I love her less than someone who bathes their baby every day :) I hope I worded that OK, I'm rubbish at stuff like that!

    Well DH got in at 2am, so he came to school with me to take Josh, then came shopping with me and chose me a top for my birthday. He has to have 9 hours rest so didn't have to go back to work till 11 :)

    Ooh whingey baby, back soon!

    It would be very silly not to take medication you need just so you can breastfeed :o

    very true!!

    TBH if K had latched on etc and i hadnt had to change my meds i think i'd have been one of the mums who only feeds the baby in her own home. never really thought about having to feed him in public :o:cool:
    expressing was definitely the better option for me that way (if i;d been able to continue) i'd have been able to leave the house! :rotfl:

    Just a thought on the powder not being sterile thing.. the powder we add to Rhys' milk as a form of medication is actually formula milk that it says on the tin you must make up with hot boiled water etc etc and yet the doctors/nurses always added it to cold EBM, straight from the fridge and just shook it up.. can't see that method ever killing bugs in it *rolleyes* :cool: (my point being the pros don't stick to the rules ;))
