32b - i use the newborn fold, but finn has issues pooping regularly so i couldn't say how it is with poopsplosions!

Tara -i use that pump everyday. It's fine once u get the hang of how to get the best flow, but i couldn't imagine using it for every feed long term IYSWIM. Hth

Tara, what is likely to happen with the pump? I exclusively pumped for all of two days with a manual, then had to get an electric. That did the job for a while, but really I should have switched to a hospital grade pump sooner. Will she be able to get a hospital pump soon? Do they have them at the hospital? The sooner a good pump is used regularly, the better her supply will be.

loved that 'one born every minute' last night. cried my eyes out watching it. when they had to do the emer/ c/sect it brought it all back how scared i was etc.
so i have decided, after talking it through with DH that if we do have another, i will ask for an elective section. (well thats the plan, prob change when it comes to making the decision). although DH surprised me as he said he thought i would have to have a c/s anyway as i already had one. (must have read the leaflets they gave us )

That's great Tara, I'm so upset for your DD.

Feel better Jillie, gentle hugs for you.

Can't help with poopsplosions, we use BumGenius washables and they don't contain the horrors.

I hope your SIL and her littlie are ok, WM. I'm a bit worried about your husband as well - two separate instances of ironing?!

:rotfl: at Rhys and his companion of choice.

Boogery baby is fast asleep and I need to feed, change and dress her before our playdate at 2.

Gosh this thread is all confusing now.

At the end of the day, boob juice or formula is just food. I imagine most toddlers will go through a fussy stage and not be getting all their vitamins and minerals anyways.

I just let Keira eat a flake for lunch

My cat seems a bit better today, he didn't puke up the food he ate last night and I just got his antibiotics down him in a blob of cream cheese. Cream cheese rules.

Got to go back with that DS today, well I will if I can get ready by half 12!

Feel better soon Jillie you've reminded me, GISI did anyone answer your elective c/s question? it is my experience that any woman who has had a previous section (regardless of reason why) will be 'allowed' to have another c/s but I think it would be up to your consultant that you would only get allocated once pg and booked in with the MWs.
I've already forgotten why you had a section but I think it was because bubba was in distress? if so I think it's a pretty random thing that may or may not happen with baby #2 If you would like any info on VBACs or post c/s support let me know and I'll try to digg out the links from the Rad Mid group x

OH just sent me this link, written by someone working in a NICU.

I recommend having your tissues handy before you read it.
