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
: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:
This made me think of Feelie, Ladybird and me sat on a tiny bench in Basingstoke all BFing!
I'm a bit of a tarty Mummy and sometimes express so that I can wear un-BFing friendly clothes out!:DYummy mummy, runner, baker and procrastinator

I just want to give a big hug all around to all you lovely mummies and daddies trying so hard to do what's best for your kids even when it makes you feel unhappy.

Lolgee thanks, Beenie!
but sweet you were concerned 
I can't help what i dream about 
A weeks worth of news!
Tara is a Nanny earlier than expected, DGD Poppie has had her operation and is being a strong baby girl.
Mr MFD has been in hospital but is home now.
:)
Mr SS is in hospital.
MM has gone back to work.
Ermmm - there must be lots more, someone help!
My un-exciting news in summary: Yellow booby watching men in garden, dog poo, broken car, gave a bottle of formula which apparently contained sedatives (still sleeping!), went to booby group.
:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:To be honest I feel it is being milked ('scuse the pun) waaaaay too much now.
Omg does it say that? What a load of guff.Oh, question OH asked me yesterday.. Why when you're making up formula should you (according to the tin) use water only boiled once? *confused* What does it do to it when you boil it twice? :cool:
When i switched to FF with DS i used to fill the kettle and use as and when. AND when he was over 6m if it had cooled still in the kettle i'd click the kettle on for a sec to save me warming it up after i made it. But then again he does have 16 toes and 3 heads so maybe that wasn't a good idea.
Well can you believe it... The garage said it's just new tyres needed (3) and to ring the 30-seconds-away-from-my-front-door garage. So i had to walk in the rain to pick car up to take it to this one. I wish i'd just took it there in the freakin' first place!I didn't enjoy walking home from the garage today. I live about 30 seconds from another garage, i should have used them. I'm just wary of them since i asked them to check my anti-freeze levels and they told me it all needed flushing through cos it was all old and would ruin something - quoted me something stupid like £80. The i went to my 'trusty; garage and he just emptied a bit out and poured the new stuff in, no charge.

Costing me £90
And i need some work doing on the brakes (new pads) and a new headlight. I knew about those already though but i can't afford it yet. 0 -

Hello Feelie
I hope you don't mind but I've told my brother and his G/F (both GPs) about this situation, (not saying anything specific) and they are going to try to take it to a higher level.
Together we can make a difference eh?;)

I'm not a very fluffy person, but it makes me sad that all these lovely parents are beating themselves up about their choices because we don't all do the same stuff, but then we also beat ourselves up because we know others don't do the same stuff and sometimes we accidentally hurt each other's feelings.
Dictatorishly, I order a group hug. Nobody is exempt unless they've not washed since the last time I bathed Molly
